DO101 Readability Checker
What it is
DO101 Readability Checker is a free web tool for examining English text with six readability formulas and sentence-rhythm analysis. It reports Flesch Reading Ease plus Flesch–Kincaid, Gunning Fog, SMOG, Coleman–Liau, and ARI grade-level scores. Sentence views show length variation, a colour-coded bar for each sentence, and a list of the longest sentences. These outputs can help when pitching an essay to a target level or adjusting web copy to a grade goal. The checker runs entirely in the browser, processing text on your device instead of uploading it to DO101. It needs at least ten words and one complete sentence before producing scores, and the page says formulas need about 100 words to settle. Syllable counting combines a lookup table for irregular words with vowel-group rules and corrections for silent E and suffixes. The formulas use word and sentence length as proxies, so they cannot determine whether writing is clear, accurate, or well argued. DO101 says its tools are free to use, with no expiring trial. English is the listed supported language.
