How it works

From the request to the appropriate language version in three clear steps.

Send text with mode and settings

A website, portal or backend calls the service with text, API key, language mode and settings such as `rewriteScope` or `qualityHints`.

simple8 creates the appropriate version

Processing follows the selected mode. Plain Language supports broad everyday communication. Easy Read reduces complexity more extensively and uses tighter structure.

Deliver the result through the right workflow

Return the simplified text on its own or include quality hints for review. Each combination of text, mode and settings is cached separately.

Create Plain Language versions

Use simple8 to turn complex specialist content, forms and service pages into Plain Language. The meaning remains traceable while sentences, terminology and information order become clearer.

Create Easy Read with controlled AI support

For audiences who need stronger linguistic support, the API creates more extensively simplified Easy Read versions. Teams can review every result and request optional quality hints for each call.

Easy Read generator

Add accessible language to websites

Websites, portals and specialist systems can publish understandable language versions through existing workflows. This adds content accessibility alongside technical accessibility.

Easy Read: WordPress

Language logic

Plain Language, Easy Read and quality hints solve different needs.

The two modes address different levels of linguistic support. Quality hints are an optional review setting, not a separate language mode.

DIN-conformant German output

German plain-language output from simple8 conforms to DIN ISO 24495-1 and DIN 8581-1. German Easy Read output conforms to DIN SPEC 33429.

Easy Read

Easy Read simplifies more extensively with shorter sentences, stricter word choices, fewer subordinate clauses, stronger visual structure and a substantially lower linguistic load.

Quality hints and editorial review

Quality hints add transparent review guidance to the response. Teams can inspect how rules were applied and give sensitive content focused editorial attention.
