WebYes Launches Free PDF Accessibility Checker

WebYes launched a free browser-based checker that scans PDFs against WCAG 2.1 AA and PDF/UA, highlights problems, ranks them by severity, and provides repair guidance. Users can upload files up to 50 MB or paste public links without signing up, providing an accessible first pass before publication.

// ANALYSIS

This is a practical, low-friction entry point for teams that routinely publish PDFs, though automated checks cannot replace human review or screen-reader testing.

  • –Pinpointed findings and fix instructions make accessibility issues more actionable than a generic pass/fail report.
  • –The no-account, no-storage workflow is useful for agencies and teams handling sensitive documents.
  • –It checks structure, tagging, alt text presence, contrast, forms, links, and reading-order signals across common PDF accessibility requirements.
  • –WebYes clearly positions the free checker as a lead-in to paid expert audits and remediation.
  • –It complements tools such as Acrobat, PAC, and veraPDF rather than replacing manual evaluation of meaningful alt text or real reading order.
