Image Alt Text
Detects images without alternative text. AI generates context-aware descriptions automatically.

Reading Order
Verifies slide elements follow a logical reading order for screen readers. Flags and fixes ordering issues.
Slide Titles
Ensures every slide has a title so users can navigate by heading. Detects duplicates and missing titles.
Document Language
Checks that the document language is set correctly so screen readers use the right pronunciation.
Link Text
Flags vague link text like “click here” and suggests descriptive alternatives for better navigation.

Legal Compliance
ADA, Section 508, EU Accessibility Act, and AODA all require accessible documents. Non-compliance risks lawsuits and fines.
Better for Everyone
Accessible documents are clearer, better structured, and easier to read — even for users without disabilities.
Inclusive by Default
When your presentations and PDFs are accessible, you reach your entire audience — not just part of it.
Built for teams who create documents
Government & Education
Section 508 and WCAG compliance is mandatory. The DOJ’s ADA Title II update requires all public-entity digital content to be accessible by April 2026. Autoable makes remediation fast enough to meet the deadline.
Corporate Communications
Investor decks, training materials, and internal docs all need to be accessible. Run them through Autoable before publishing.
Agencies & Consultants
Deliver accessible work product to your clients. Offer accessibility remediation as an add-on service.
Educators & Trainers
Course materials, lecture slides, and handouts must be accessible to all students. Autoable handles it in seconds.
Higher Education & the ADA Deadline
The DOJ’s ADA Title II update requires all public universities and colleges to make digital content accessible by April 24, 2026.
The Challenge
Half of universities have only 1–2 accessibility staff, and one-third of instructors are not aware of digital accessibility requirements. The April 2026 deadline covers every piece of digital content: course materials, lecture slides, syllabi, and handouts.
The Risk
Non-compliance means litigation, federal fines, and reputational damage. ADA lawsuits against universities have increased year over year. The deadline applies to all public colleges and universities receiving federal funding.
The Solution
Autoable’s Canvas LMS integration lets you scan and fix every file in a course at once. Faculty and staff can also upload individual files — no accessibility expertise required. Check, fix, and download compliant documents in seconds.
Your files are safe
Your files are temporarily stored during processing and deleted immediately after download. They are never permanently stored, never logged, and never shared.
