“Accessibility is a critical foundational element for technology solutions and it has become part of mainstream technology that enables individuals with disabilities to interact effectively and intuitively with machines in order to be productive and active participants in society.
Continual Engine is an industry leader, solving this problem by incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision. It enables superior learning experiences for technology-based companies, publishers, educational institutions, and content providers, and specializes in digitizing and making legacy content accessible including documents, and images such as complex tables, figures, and charts.
Our products PREP and Invicta are innovations in accessible technology that break barriers in education, enabling equitable access to all. By harnessing the power of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, automation, and other technologies in an unprecedented manner, our products make content accessible for all individuals – regardless of physical, cognitive, or other limitations.
PREP which stands for PDF and Document Remediation Platform is a document accessibility platform that accelerates and automates the process of making PDFs and other formats of documents accessible for individuals with visual or cognitive disabilities who use screen reader software to access digital content. Compared to other remediation tools, PREP minimizes the need for manual intervention as it automates tagging for even complex structures like tables and lists. In addition to staying compliant with Section 508, WCAG 2.1, and ADA guidelines, businesses can make documents accessible at a fraction of the time and cost. The tool also empowers a team of highly experienced accessibility experts who test, verify and produce accurate documents. PREP makes accessible technology adoption faster, seamless, and results oriented.
