We need beta-testers to test two new readability formulas on their text.
- We added the original Linsear Write Formula. The one commonly used on the Internet is a conversion of the original formula. Both tend to yield the same results, but we found the original formula more accurate by 1-2 grade levels. You can read about the original formula at our website: Learn about the Linsear Write Readability Formula
- We added the Fry Sight Readability Formula. It's based on the principles of sight word frequency and word complexity. The formula uses the Dale-Chall formula as the blueprint for its calculations.

We welcome your feedback on using these formulas.
