PDF Remediation

See the difference accessibility makes.

Real government PDFs — before and after remediation. Every example below started as a non-compliant document and was transformed into a fully tagged, veraPDF-verified, Section 508 compliant PDF.

Quick Fix

Structural issues like missing tags, language declarations, and heading hierarchy — resolved in a single automated pass.

PDF Agent

An intelligent remediation agent that analyzes complex layouts, generates accurate alt text, reconstructs reading order, and verifies results against PDF/UA standards.

OCR Remediate

Scanned/image-only PDFs converted to selectable, searchable text with rebuilt form fields and full tag structure.

Continuous Learning

Every Document Teaches Us Something New

The PDF Agent doesn't just apply fixes — it learns from every document it processes. When a remediation strategy encounters a new document pattern, it analyzes the structure, identifies the root cause, and adds that knowledge to its repertoire. This means compliance rates compound over time. Documents that would have failed six months ago now pass on the first attempt.
