What is an AI text leveler?
An AI text leveler rewrites a text so students at a different reading level can understand it. In Edform, you paste a passage, upload a PDF or Word file, add photos of a page or a link to an article, and choose the readers: grades 1–2, 3–4, 5–6, 7–9 or 10–12, or plain language for students with special educational needs. Sentence length and vocabulary change to fit; the meaning, facts and key terms stay, with difficult terms explained in brackets. Three comprehension questions are added at the end. Make it simpler or shorter, or add examples, in one click, then print it, download it as a Word file, or create a quiz from it.

Questions teachers ask
Does the leveled text keep the original meaning?
Yes. The facts, key ideas and important terms stay; difficult terms are explained in brackets.
Which reading levels can I choose?
Grades 1–2, 3–4, 5–6, 7–9 and 10–12, plus plain language for students with special educational needs. Need a second level? Run the tool again with the same text.
What is the plain-language option?
Short sentences, one idea per sentence, concrete words and subheadings: a version that works well for students with special educational needs.
Can I level a PDF, a photo or a web page?

Is the AI text leveler free?
Yes. It's free for teachers: sign up for a free Edform account, no credit card needed.
Should I check the result?
Yes. AI can make mistakes, so read the leveled text before sharing it, especially with young readers, and edit anything by hand.
