What gets fixed

Six remediations per file, every time.

We tackle the exact set of issues that block PDF/UA conformance — and nothing your team has to chase down by hand.

Tag structure & reading order

Headings, lists, tables, and figures all correctly nested. Multi-column layouts re-flowed for screen readers.

AI-generated alt text

Context-aware descriptions for every image, chart, and infographic. Editable in the review queue.

Form fields & tooltips

Every interactive element labeled for assistive tech, with role and required-state metadata.

Bookmarks & TOC

Hierarchical bookmarks and navigable outlines derived from your heading structure.

Lists, tables & figures

Complex tables get header associations. Decorative imagery is correctly marked as artifact.

Verified PDF/UA-1 output

Every file is re-tested against ISO 14289 before delivery. No silent failures.

How it works

From upload to conformant — in one pass.

No queues, no manual review gates. Files come back tagged and verified, with a remediation log you can hand straight to legal.

Standards

Conformance, not just compliance.

Each output is validated against the actual standard — so when an audit lands on your desk, the evidence is already attached.

PDF/UA-1

ISO 14289-1 — the international standard for PDF accessibility.

WCAG 2.2 AA

All success criteria that apply to PDF content.

Section 508

European public-sector accessibility directive.

Frequently asked

Questions teams ask first.

What file types are supported?

Any PDF. We handle scanned image PDFs via OCR, modern tagged PDFs, fillable forms, and legacy 1.4-era files.

Do my files leave my region?

Processing runs in the region you choose — US, EU, or your private VPC. Files are never used for model training.

How is alt text generated?

A vision model writes a draft based on surrounding context. You can approve, edit, or auto-accept per-collection.

What about my source files?

Originals are preserved alongside remediated copies, with a full diff and remediation log for every change.

Will it touch my brand assets?

No. Visual layout is preserved bit-for-bit. We only modify the tag tree, metadata, and underlying structure.

What's the SLA?

First 100 documents within the week, included on every plan. Bulk runs are queued and complete within hours.
