The April 2026 Deadline Is Real
Faculty are drowning in remediation work. Existing tools scan but don't fix. There has to be a better way.
40+ Hours Per Course
Manual remediation of PDFs, slides, and videos takes 40-80 hours per course. Faculty are already stretched thin. Some are threatening to delete all content rather than remediate it.
Existing Tools Don't Fix
YuJa Panorama and Blackboard Ally scan for issues but don't actually fix them. Faculty still have to do the manual work. You need remediation, not just another report.
LaTeX Is Completely Unsolved
95-99% of math faculty use LaTeX. No mainstream tool converts it to accessible MathML. STEM departments are stuck with no path forward for their most critical content.
Federal Funding At Risk
Universities receiving federal aid must comply with Section 504. OCR opened 100+ reviews in 2022. Non-compliance risks student aid, research grants, and contracts.
PDFs Are Everywhere
Syllabi, readings, handouts, exams—all PDFs. Most are scanned images with no structure tags. OCR alone isn't enough; you need proper heading structure and reading order.
11% of Students Need This
1 in 9 college students has a disability. Accessible materials aren't just compliance—they're better pedagogy. Captions help ESL students. Alt text helps everyone review.
Auto-Captions Aren't Enough
Universities are being told auto-generated captions don't meet compliance standards. Technical terms, accents, and domain-specific vocabulary need human-quality accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Other tools show you a list of accessibility issues—then you spend hours fixing them yourself. Aelira is different: you upload your files, our AI does the remediation work, and you download accessible versions. A PDF that would take 2-3 hours to manually remediate is done in minutes. Your time is too valuable for manual remediation.
PDFs (with OCR for scanned documents), PowerPoints, Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, LaTeX equations (converted to accessible MathML—essential for STEM), images (AI-generated alt text), and videos (automatic transcription and captions). We also scan websites and HTML code. All 8 tools work together in one platform.
Yes! Individual faculty can sign up free with a .edu email address (500 spots available). You get 10 documents per month with full AI remediation. No credit card required, no IT department involvement needed. Just sign up and start uploading files. If you need more capacity, ask your department to join the pilot program.
Those tools scan your content and show you what's wrong—but you still have to fix everything yourself. Aelira actually generates accessible versions of your files. Upload a PDF with missing alt text, download one with AI-generated descriptions. Upload a PowerPoint with contrast issues, download one with the colors fixed. We do the work so you don't have to.
All the major ones: Google Workspace (Docs, Slides, Sheets), Microsoft 365 (OneDrive, SharePoint), Canvas LMS, Blackboard Learn, Moodle, and D2L Brightspace. That covers 95% of US universities and 85% of Australian institutions. Connect once, and we can scan and remediate files directly from your LMS or cloud storage.
No. You don't need to know what WCAG 2.1 AA means or learn accessibility guidelines. Upload your course materials, and Aelira handles the compliance details. You'll see a simple score (0-100) and can download fixed files immediately. If you want to learn more, we show exactly what was changed and why.
Department plans start at $999/month (USD) or $1,499/month (AUD) with unlimited faculty accounts and unlimited files. We're running a pilot program: 10 departments get 6 weeks free, then 50% off. That's less than the cost of one faculty member spending a weekend on manual remediation. Self-hosting is free if you have the technical resources.
The DOJ's ADA Title II rule requires large universities (50,000+ population jurisdictions) to be WCAG 2.1 AA compliant by April 24, 2026. Smaller institutions have until April 2027. Aelira helps you meet these deadlines without faculty spending hundreds of hours on manual remediation. We handle PDFs, PowerPoints, LaTeX, videos—all the content types that need to be accessible.
Yes. We use self-hosted AI models (Llama, Qwen, Whisper)—your files are never sent to OpenAI or other third-party AI services. For maximum security, you can self-host the entire platform on your own servers. Cloud-hosted customers get encrypted storage and SOC 2 compliant infrastructure. Files are processed and deleted—we don't keep copies.
