01

Synchronous HTTP request

A request goes in and the finished response comes back in the same HTTP connection.

Suitable for

Direct actions in the user interface, short texts and low latency

02

One request + streaming response

A request starts processing, the response comes back step by step as a stream.

Suitable for

Longer content, progressive UI, visible processing progress

03

Async job + polling

The first request creates a job, then the client queries the status repeatedly.

Suitable for

Batch processing, backends, longer jobs without a persistent open connection

04

Async job + webhook

The first request creates a job, the completion message comes back later via a webhook.

Suitable for

CMS workflows, event architecture, reliable system-to-system integration

Settings

Three adjusting screws shape product behavior.

simple8 transforms complex content into structured Easy Read for people who need stronger language support.

Response time can vary with `mode`, `rewriteScope` and `qualityHints`. Condensed output is often shorter, additional hints expand the response, and Easy Read applies stricter simplification rules than Plain Language.

01

Complete

Corresponds to the idea behind `REWRITE_COMPLETE`: All information from the source text should be retained, just formulated in a clearer and more understandable way.

02

Condensed

Complete answers receive all content. Condensed answers focus on the core messages. Quality information only appears when it is really needed.

03

Quality information

Quality information is an additional option. They supplement the output with additional information for review and quality assurance. Without this option, the API response remains lightweight and contains only the simplified text.
