Score: 5.0/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 6, Documentation: 4, Utility: 3)

Euspell is a conservative English spelling reform that changes only 20% of words, using a lexicon with part-of-speech tags and machine learning to disambiguate homographs. It provides browser extensions, word processor plugins, and readers to apply the respelling without altering source text, aiming to improve reading comprehension.

Target audience: linguists, educators, readers, developers interested in NLP
