Assessing readability
How to assess readability? In this demo you can assess the readability of ten texts by comparing them with each other. The idea is that you assign an absolute score - ranging from 0 (easy) to 100 (difficult) - to each text and motivate your score using the free text field.

Classical formulas
In this demo, you can enter a Dutch text of maximum 1,000 characters. The text is then analyzed: various text characteristics (word length, sentence length, TTR, ...) are outputted and different scores calculated based on classical readability formulas. In a next phase, the text is also analyzed with a syntactic parser offering insights into the grammatical complexity of the text.
