Adaely: PDF accessibility for public entities
Adaely presents a workflow for finding inaccessible public-sector PDFs, remediating machine-fixable issues, and sending other work to human reviewers.
- For
- City, county, and state government staff
- Worth noticing
- The site says its document inventory is yours to keep whether or not you purchase remediation.
Field notes
The described crawl covers linked files, including older archive material, and produces an inventory with each file’s failures, page count, and estimated remediation cost. The remediation list includes OCR, document structure, reading order, table headers, form labels, language, bookmarks, and drafted alt text. Adaely says a person reviews alt text and reading order before delivery, and that each remediated file comes with a conformance report.
