What you get

The full EqualWeb PDF Accessibility product, in Moodle

An admin tool plugin for Moodle 4.5+. Every document gets a 0-100 accessibility score against ~80 PDF/UA and WCAG rules, a detailed report with a permanent link, a legal-priority classification with a full audit trail - and one-click AI remediation that replaces the file in place, so nothing anyone linked, embedded or bookmarked ever breaks.

  • An "active learning material" category built for education: a visible course plus a visible activity means high priority
  • Aligned with the legal reality for education: materials behind login are covered too - current-use is the legal line, not public visibility
  • Course- and folder-level tagging so academic staff can mark what is service-critical
  • Managed through a Moodle admin capability
Minimum access, maximum transparency

What we see - and what we never see

  • What we get

    The plugin runs inside your Moodle - course files stay where they are. Only the document being checked is sent for processing.

  • Who approves

    Your Moodle administrator installs it

  • What we never see

    No student data, grades or course content beyond the files being checked

Your files are never stored with EqualWeb - a document is processed in the remediation cloud and the result returns to Moodle. Keys and credentials are stored encrypted (AES-256).

How it works

Scan. Score. Prioritize. Remediate in place.

  1. Scan

    The files of all courses across your Moodle instance. Office documents (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) are detected too, for accessible conversion.

  2. Score

    Every document is checked against ~80 PDF/UA and WCAG rules and gets a 0-100 score plus a detailed, permanently-linked report.

  3. Prioritize

    Documents are classified by signals from Moodle itself: required for service, public, internal, or archive (pending your confirmation) - so you fix what matters first.

  4. Remediate

    One click sends the document to EqualWeb's AI remediation - tagging, reading order, alt text, metadata - and the accessible file replaces the original in place. The original stays restorable.

FAQ

PDF accessibility in Moodle - common questions

Do course materials behind login need to be accessible?
Yes. Current regulation draws the legal line at documents in current use - including materials behind login, like an LMS or staff portal. EqualWeb's Moodle plugin is built around exactly that: active learning material gets top priority.
Which Moodle versions are supported?
The plugin is an admin tool for Moodle 4.5 and newer, and scans the files of all courses in the instance.
Does it touch student data?
No. The plugin works on course files only. It scans, scores and remediates PDFs - student records and grades are never part of the flow.
