Readability formulas (Flesch-Kincaid, etc.) estimate how easy prose is to read based on sentence and word length.
Readability scores guide content teams targeting grade levels — marketing copy, docs and education materials. Flesch Reading Ease and Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level are common English metrics.
Scores are heuristics, not quality judgments. Tentaco readability tools analyse pasted text locally — useful before publishing blog posts or simplifying legal language.
