FAQ
AI PDF auto-remediation - frequently asked questions
How does AI auto-remediation for PDFs work?
You upload a PDF to EqualWeb's AI Auto-Remediation and the AI tags the document in one pass: heading levels, table headers, image alt text, lists and a logical reading order, aligned to WCAG 2.2 and PDF/UA. The output is a tagged, accessible PDF you download, together with a Checker report and an accessibility score showing what was fixed.
What does the AI actually tag in a PDF?
EqualWeb's AI Auto-Remediation adds the semantic structure assistive technology needs: heading levels, a corrected logical reading order, table markup with row and column headers, properly structured lists, descriptive link tagging, AI-generated alternative text for images, tagged form fields, and document metadata such as title and language. Accessible PDFs are about tags rather than looks, and this is the layer screen readers read.
How many PDFs can I remediate at once?
EqualWeb's AI Auto-Remediation accepts batch uploads of up to 100 PDFs in a single job. You can drag and drop files, browse, or upload from a URL, and the system flags scanned, image-only documents automatically, running an extra OCR step that handles files up to 400 pages. Every file in the batch is tagged and comes back with its own accessibility score and Checker report.
What languages does AI PDF remediation support?
EqualWeb's automatic AI tagging is currently optimized for English and Latin-script languages. PDFs in other languages can be uploaded, but automated tagging support may be limited. For documents the AI cannot fully handle, EqualWeb's IAAP/CPWA-certified experts can remediate the file by hand through Expert Manual Remediation and verify it with real screen readers.
Can I upgrade an AI-remediated PDF to expert remediation?
Yes. Every file processed by EqualWeb's AI Auto-Remediation can be sent on to certified experts using the Upgrade to Manual option in the dashboard. IAAP and CPWA-certified accessibility specialists then review and re-tag the document by hand, delivering a higher-quality, human-verified remediation. Use it when an AI-remediated file needs deeper quality work or formal verification.
