Simpleread Simplify Any T

Simplify any English webpage into plain language, without leaving the page.

Built for anyone who finds dense English hard to read — English learners (ESL), students working through academic papers, professionals stuck on legal contracts, or readers tackling dense news articles. Works on any webpage in English: news sites, Wikipedia, research papers, terms of service, anything you can highlight.

SimpleRead rewrites complex English text into plain English, right inside your browser. Highlight any passage, click Simplify, and the original text is rewritten in place. No copy-pasting or tab switching.

SimpleRead uses Chrome's built-in Gemini Nano model, which runs entirely on your device. Your text never leaves your computer; nothing is sent to a server, logged, or stored.

- Reading academic papers and research articles in plain English
- Making legal contracts and terms of service easier to read
- Simplifying dense news, opinion pieces, and editorials
- Helping English learners practise reading with paraphrased versions
- Simplifying complex Wikipedia entries and technical documentation
