Blackboard Ally generates alternative formats and now offers basic PDF fixes (title, language, OCR) and AI-generated alt text. But deep structural remediation — table tagging, heading hierarchy, reading order, LaTeX — requires tools like Aelira.
April 2027 Deadline: WCAG 2.1 compliance required
The only tool that generates working code fixes for your source files. Fix PDFs, PowerPoint, and LaTeX with AI.
Better multi-LMS support than Ally. Scans courses and identifies issues (but doesn't fix them).
$14,000 - $70,000/year
Enterprise contracts only
Good for university websites. Not for document remediation or course content.
$690/year
Per website/domain
Best manual testing tool. No automation—you fix everything yourself.
Free - $14,000/year
Extension free, Pro version paid
Free basic accessibility scanning. Only catches ~40% of issues.
Free
Included with Chrome
Better than Lighthouse for education-focused accessibility. Still manual fixes only.
Free
Browser extension + API available
The "old way." Hire 2-3 FTE accessibility specialists to remediate everything manually.
