Use on essays, blog posts, and long-form articles where ideas need to flow from paragraph to paragraph. Marketing copy often *should* score lower (direct, punchy).
Most readability tools miss cohesion entirely. A 5th-grade Flesch score with zero transitions still reads as choppy.
The analyzer scans for five families of connective phrases — addition, contrast, cause, sequence, example — and counts their density.
Paragraph linkage measures the % of paragraphs that begin with an explicit transition. Pronoun ratio captures referential cohesion.
The composite score blends transition density (40%), paragraph linkage (30%), and pronoun cohesion (30%).
Cohesion is the local glue between sentences (transitions, pronouns). Coherence is the global logic of the whole text. This tool measures cohesion.
60+ is healthy for essays and articles. Marketing copy can score lower (more direct, fewer transitions).
Each new paragraph should signal how it relates to the previous one. Starting cold often loses readers.
