CampusMind Accessibility · PDF remediation

Make every PDF on campus accessible, a whole course at a time.

CampusMind pulls whole courses of PDFs out of your LMS and remediates them in batches. Your team's hours go to reviewing and approving, while the AI does the rebuilding.

The problem

Students shouldn't have to ask for an accessible PDF.

Most course PDFs were never tagged, so a screen reader can't make sense of them. Fixing them by hand is slow, and a small team can't keep up with a whole campus.

CampusMind's AI does most of the remediation. Your team still approves every file, and the edge cases are flagged so they get attention first.

For CIOs and accessibility leaders

See where your whole campus stands.

Every batch feeds one campus-wide score, so you can see what's fixed, what's waiting on review, and what still needs attention.

One campus-wide score

Every LMS and upload in one view, with files remediated, pending review and critical.

01 · Courses and batches

Pull in a whole course, or build your own batch.

Bring in every PDF in a course straight from your LMS. Or group files into batches by document type, like syllabi, slide decks, scanned readings or forms, and each batch gets scanned for its accessibility score first.

Whole courses, straight from your LMS

Canvas, Blackboard, Brightspace or SharePoint, with no downloading and re-uploading.

Batches by document type

Group similar files so each batch runs with the rules that suit it.

02 · Batch rules

Set the rules once for the whole batch.

Give each batch the approach its documents need, from keeping a form's layout to fully rebuilding a scanned reading. Every file in the batch gets the same rules.

Basic

Preserve Layout (Auto-Tag Only)

  • Accessibility tag structure

03 · Remediate

Hand off a whole course and get on with your day.

Every PDF in the batch is fixed in the background, at about a minute per file, and comes back with its own compliance score.

04 · Review

Your team checks every tag before a student sees it.

The AI does the first pass. Your reviewers approve the last one.

Every fix, next to the page

Anything the AI got wrong takes one edit to correct.

Every edit saved as a version

Nothing is overwritten, and each file is rechecked before approval.

Tag and caption editor: the tag list for page 1 on the left, the page preview with every heading, paragraph, list, figure and table outlined, and Approve and Reject buttons for the reviewer.

05 · Send it back

Approved files go straight back to where they came from.

Each file lands in the same course or folder in Canvas, Blackboard, Brightspace or SharePoint. No downloading and re-uploading.

Customer story

What accessibility teams are saying.

The tools we’ve tried before didn’t give us the control we needed.

With CampusMind, there is potential to not only reduce our workload but also make our PDFs fully accessible in almost no time.

The ability to clean up complex layouts, keep page flows intact, and ensure everything is compliant has been a game-changer for us.

Questions accessibility teams ask first

Straight answers.

Remediation targets WCAG 2.1 AA, and every file is checked against it. The compliance report lists each rule, so you can see exactly what passed.

Preserve Layout leaves the visual design untouched and fixes the structure underneath. Full Accessibility Reconstruction can adjust headings, tables, captions and contrast when tagging alone isn't enough.

Yes. Your team checks every file and approves it, or fixes what the AI missed and then approves it. Edge cases are flagged so they get attention first. You can also scan a course first and decide what to remediate afterward.

Canvas, Blackboard, Brightspace and SharePoint, plus direct upload for PDFs stored anywhere else. A whole course can run as one batch.

About a minute per file, and there's no limit on how many files a batch can hold. The batch runs in the background, and edge cases are flagged so your reviewers see them first.

No. CampusMind Accessibility is built for PDF remediation. Web content and captioning need a different tool.
