Explain Like I’m Five – Turn Complex Ideas into Kid‑Simple Insights
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
01.
How does Kid Explaino decide the 1-to-3 “Simplicity Gems”?
We analyse Flesch-Kincaid readability, sentence length and child-vocabulary frequency. <65 FK = 1 gem, 65-85 = 2, >85 = 3. 2
02.
Can it explain topics in languages other than English?
Yes—28 languages are supported. The gem algorithm auto-adjusts readability metrics for each language’s grammar.
03.
What triggers my daily Curiosity Streak?
A unique term successfully explained on a calendar day. Editing the same term or refreshing the page won’t extend the streak.
04.
Are the ELI5 illustrations free to reuse?
Yes. SVGs generated after a 3-day streak are released under CC-BY so you can embed them in presentations or worksheets with a small attribution.
05.
Is there an age-filter on topics?
Explicit or adult terms return a polite refusal. Everything else is rewritten with age-appropriate vocabulary only.
06.
Can teachers bulk-generate explanations for a lesson?
