Document Remediation Service

We build clean HTML documents.
Not overlays. Not auto-tags.

Most accessibility tools layer JavaScript shims on top of broken pages, or auto-tag PDFs and hope for the best. We're different. We build a new, structured HTML version of every document — easier to read for every visitor, not just users with accessibility needs.

How we're different

Overlays

JavaScript shims (AccessiBe, AudioEye, UserWay) that try to fix accessibility on the fly. Widely criticized. Don't address WCAG conformance at the source. The underlying page stays broken; the overlay just hides the symptoms.

Auto-taggers

Run a script over a PDF that adds tags and hopes the result is readable. Works on simple documents. Breaks on complex tables, multi-column layouts, charts, maps, and footnotes — which is most government and healthcare documents.

OctoComply Remediation

We extract document content using Azure Document Intelligence, rebuild the document structure with Claude, and validate the output against five independent tools (axe-core, Lighthouse, pa11y, Playwright, Claude semantic review). Every event is recorded in an immutable certification ledger.

The result is a document that's easier to read for every visitor: screen reader users, keyboard navigators, mobile devices, low-bandwidth connections, and anyone who just wants a faster, cleaner page.

How we validate

Every remediation ships with a certification record.

Most remediation vendors give you a finished file and ask you to trust it. We give you a per-document certification page that shows exactly what was validated, by which tools, and when. Five independent validators run on every remediated document, and every event is recorded in an immutable ledger. Federal reviewers, counsel, and your IT team can verify the work without taking our word for it.

axe-core 4.10

WCAG 2.0/2.1/2.2 AA rule engine — Deque Systems

Claude semantic review

Alt text quality, heading hierarchy, reading order, content clarity

Pending until performed

Immutable validation ledger

Every event timestamped

Each validation run — automated or human — is recorded with the exact date, tool version, and result. Never edited, never deleted. New events get appended. The history is the proof.

Iterative refinement is visible

If a document goes through several rounds before it's clean (11 errors → 2 errors → 0), the ledger shows the path. No magic, no hidden retries. The good-faith effort is documented in the artifact itself.

The certification record ships alongside the remediated document and shows every validation event from initial generation through final clean state — including the iterative refinement (e.g. 11 errors → 0) recorded honestly in the ledger.

Live case study

Palm Beach TPA — Vision 2050 Long Range Transportation Plan

A 60-page transportation plan with complex tables, charts, and maps — remediated into a fully accessible HTML version by the OctoComply Document Remediation Service. When the widget is installed, visitors see a clear “View Accessible Version” button next to the PDF link and can open the clean HTML version instantly. This is what production output looks like — not a mockup, not a demo.

How it looks on the agency's website

The widget adds a button next to every PDF link. Remediated documents get a filled button; others get an outlined action:

Green pill with checkmark = accessible version available (remediated HTML or scan-verified PDF), opens immediately. Outlined pill with figure = not yet remediated, opens accommodation request form. Four color variants available (green, navy, dark, ghost) to match any brand.

Detects PDF links

The widget scans the page for same-origin PDF links and adds an accessibility icon next to each one.

Checks for remediated versions

When clicked, it checks whether the Document Remediation Service has a clean HTML version of the document.

Request or view

If available, opens the remediated HTML version. If not, captures an accommodation request and logs it for your audit trail.
