Most online tools for analyzing writing aren't appropriate for the kind of writing that is published in peer-reviewed academic journals. No article in Nature or Science is ever going to written the way that hemingwayapp.com suggests is 'good.'

I'm an expert in academic writing: I have a PhD in poetry, and I write the monthly advice column "Ask Dr. Editor" for University Affairs. I know what to look for in academic writing, to make it more clear, concise, and compelling--and thus more likely to be published in a high-JIF journal.

I'm looking for help in developing an online tool similar to hemingwayapp.com, countwordsworth.com, writersdiet.com, or even the AI-powered VMock, which I can use to help researchers to identify ineffective writing strategies in their own work.

I have none of the technical background necessary to scope or imagine this work, but I do have the knowledge that would inform how the tool should work, and the networks that would help it to be widely useds. I am hoping that this tool could be made freely available to academics on my website, shortishard.ca.
