What a decode looks like

Synthetic example. Every note points at the exact line it is about.

Sample annual report page · Northgate County (synthetic)
  1. Heading: Budget summary 2026
  2. Chart: spending by department (image)
  3. Table: department · budget · change
  4. Footnote: figures in thousands of dollars
  5. Page number and running header

Why this is hard

  • Manual tagging is slow

    Tagging a long report by hand takes hours, and per-page remediation services add up fast across a document library.

  • Automatic tags are often wrong

    Built-in auto-tagging guesses the reading order and table headers, and errors are easy to miss without a screen reader.

  • Deadlines are coming

    Public bodies in the US face web accessibility rules for documents, and many organisations now ask suppliers for accessible PDFs.

What you get

  • A tagged PDF with headings, reading order, lists and table headers
  • Draft alt text for images and charts, marked for your review
  • A report against PDF/UA and WCAG checks: what passed and what still needs a person
  • Decorative items such as page numbers and running headers marked as artifacts

What it is not

An automated first pass with a review report. It doesn't certify compliance, and a person should confirm reading order and alt text before you publish.

Questions

Will the result be compliant?

We don't certify compliance. You get a tagged PDF and a report against PDF/UA and WCAG checks; a person should review the flagged items before publishing.

Why not just ask ChatGPT?

A chatbot can describe an image, but it can't produce a tagged PDF with reading order and table structure. What we're testing is a tool that writes the tags into the file and reports what still needs a person.

Who is this for?

Teams that publish PDFs: local government, schools and universities, non-profits and businesses whose customers ask for accessible documents. Business plans with batch upload are planned.

Is this live?
