WordRake says it converts jargon, bureaucratic language and difficult words into words that are more familiar. The new Simplicity mode makes suggestions designed to simplify complex language. With this new release, before beginning the Rake process, the user selects to use either the Brevity or Simplicity mode, or both. Choice of Editing ModeĪs I have explained before, WordRake is an editing and proofreading add-in for Microsoft Word and Outlook that allows users to “Rake” a document for suggested edits to enhance readability. Read about WordRake in the LawNext Legal Technology Directory. “The Act inspired us to take WordRake a step further with a unique functionality that would help government agencies communicate more effectively with their readers,” said Gary Kinder, founder of WordRake. The new Simplicity mode was inspired by a 2010 federal law, the Plain Writing Act of 2010, which requires federal government entities to use “clear government communication that the public can understand and use.”
Brevity does what WordRake has always done, which is suggest edits that can make a document more concise. WordRake now has two editing modes: Brevity and Simplicity. Tomorrow, I will publish a brief hands-on review after testing an advance copy of the software. Today I will tell you about the new version. WordRake President Scott Johns calls this a “massive update” in which WordRake has “expanded functionality, dramatically increased editing algorithm quantity and quality, eliminated license keys for renewals, and lowered the barrier to entry for new users.” The legal editing software WordRake is today releasing a new version 4.0 that expands its functionality, adds new pricing options for less-frequent users, and introduces a new Simplicity editing mode for simplifying complex language.
