Readability & sentence length
Flesch reading ease and average words per sentence, with your longest sentences flagged for splitting.
Passive voice
An estimate of how much of your text is passive, so you can rebalance toward active voice.
IMRaD structure
Detects Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion and References headings, and flags what's missing.
Abbreviations & citations
Finds abbreviations that may be undefined on first use, and counts your in-text [n] citations.
Heuristic, educational guidance — not a guarantee of acceptance. Always follow your target journal's specific author guidelines and reporting standards (e.g. CONSORT, PRISMA, STROBE).
