The three-layer scoring stack
Every filing draft is parsed through three independent layers and reduced to a single composite score on a 0 to 10 scale.
Loughran-McDonald 7-category sentiment
The standard finance-specific lexicon. Scores positive, negative, uncertainty, litigious, modal-strong, modal-weak, and constraining word density paragraph by paragraph. Used by Bloomberg, Refinitiv, and every quant fund running 10-K NLP.
Gunning Fog readability index
Measures the years of education required to parse a passage in a single read. SEC filings averaging above Fog 18 trigger negative-readability flags in algo readers. Target zone is 14 to 16 for management discussion sections.
Composite 0-10 algo-readability score
Weighted blend of sentiment skew, readability, hedge density, forward-looking-statement ratio, and length penalty. One number you can defend in front of your audit committee.
What an algo reader sees
A real 10-Q paragraph, scored before and after AxonIR optimization. Sample uses anonymized, composite text representative of typical micro-cap filings.
"While management cannot guarantee that the previously discussed initiatives will result in any meaningful change to the operating environment, we believe, subject to material risks and uncertainties, that there may be potential for measurable improvement in certain key performance indicators over the medium term, although there can be no assurance."
- Fog index: 22.4 (severe)
- Uncertainty word density: 14.2%

- Uncertainty word density: 4.1%
- Modal-weak word density: 2.2%
