Start evaluation of 7 metrics
Click "Value" to calculate scores on 7 dimensions: atomicity (20pts), connectivity (15pts), citation sources (15pts), action items (15pts), clarity (15pts), originality (10pts) and completeness (10pts). The analysis is entirely client-side, based on textual patterns.

Suggerimenti
- Use the "Best Practice" section to confirm recognized textual patterns (e.g. wiki link format, TODOs, and source citations) before writing the note.
- If atomic metrics fail often, try dividing the note into shorter notes with one main idea each: this is the core principle of the Zettelkasten method.

What are the 7 key metrics evaluated and how much do they weigh?
Atomicity 20pt (brief idea, under 500 characters, approximately 1 H1), connectivity 15pt (presence of [[wikilink]] or markdown link, more than 2), citation style 15pt (URL, author/year, "via"), action items 15pt (TODO, checkbox "- [ ]", "action:" markers), clarity 15pt (average sentence length between 12 and 25 words), originality 10pt (Type-Token Ratio above 0.5) and completeness 10pt (introduction + body + conclusion, at least 3 paragraphs or H2 titles). Total weight is 100.
What do excellent, good, fair, and poor grades mean?
Score >= 85 = excellent, >= 65 = good, >= 40 = fair, < 40 = poor. Thresholds are fixed and applied directly to the overall score of 0-100 calculated from the 7 metrics.
How is the metric of originality (TTR) calculated?
Type-Token Ratio (TTR) is the ratio of unique words to total words in the text: a value above 0.5 indicates a diverse and non-repetitive vocabulary, exceeding this metric's threshold (10pt).
Is my note text sent to a server or an AI model?
No, the evaluation is entirely client-side: no API calls are made; the score is calculated through regular expressions and statistical counting directly in the browser, without sending the note text to any server.
What does the scoring methodology draw from?
Seven dimensions combine principles of the Zettelkasten method (atomicity, link connectivity) with those of Building a Second Brain (BASB) by Tiago Forte (citation sources, action items, clarity, originality, structural completeness). The recommendations shown after the score follow the same framework.
