Readability Matters is a tech-for-good nonprofit organization with the mission to engage an ecosystem of partners to deliver personalized reading environments, empowering everyone everywhere to achieve more.

Readability definition: Readability is the ease with which a reader can recognize words, sentences, and paragraphs. The choice of typeface, characteristics of the type, and page layout can create a better (or worse) reading experience.

Readability is about the reader – the ease with which a reader can successfully decipher, process, and make meaning of the text read. Typographical features of the text are critical; letter shape, size, and spacing all meaningfully impact fluency and comprehension. Better readability is the gateway to enhanced learning and greater productivity.
