AI Reviewer Template: Plain Language Reviewer

A style-guide reviewer based on international plain language principles as defined by ISO 24495-1 and government plain language guidelines worldwide. This reviewer evaluates content for readability, sentence structure simplicity, active voice usage, jargon elimination, logical organisation, and audience-appropriate vocabulary. It is designed to ensure that content is understandable to its intended audience on the first reading. The reviewer is particularly valuable for government communications, healthcare patient materials, financial product disclosures, legal documents intended for non-lawyers, and any content where comprehension directly impacts outcomes. It checks for common plain language violations including passive voice overuse, nominalisation, unnecessary jargon, long sentences, complex paragraph structure, and buried key information. Many jurisdictions now require plain language for government and regulatory communications, making this reviewer a compliance tool as well as a quality tool.
