Launch week: every idea card is free.Get Pro

SaaS ideas, mined from what people actually complain about.

Every idea comes from real Reddit posts, was researched against today's competitors, and survived an independent skeptic before it made the list.

PDF Accessibility Remediation

Teams struggle to make large volumes of complex PDFs truly accessible, because manual remediation is slow and automated tools produce fake or broken compliance.

In their words

Fixing some details takes me a lot more time than doing the design itself.

r/accessibility on Reddit

getting through this backlog will likely be too much for me to handle on my own

r/accessibility on Reddit

I'd rather pay for something polished than maintain my own.

r/ProductivityApps on Reddit

we have them on a shared company network, but we're not allowed to email the standard or print them to share

r/Geotech on Reddit

I have teaching staff looking for solutions to turn eBooks into audiobooks to help students who have a hard time with visual processing

r/macapps on Reddit

I'm in the process of going through my syllabi and converting scanned documents (mostly book chapters) to OCR accessible documents.

r/Professors on Reddit

I spent an afternoon going slide by slide adding alt text. Tedious, yes.

r/powerpoint on Reddit

even correcting the OCR on some of these scans will take me hours, not to mention adding tags and correcting reading order

r/Libraries on Reddit

For digital licensing they are charging us multiple thousands of dollars per single user, so we've just bought physical copies

r/Libraries on Reddit

Why isn't it easier to make all of your materials ADA compliant?

r/Professors on Reddit

Screen access software needs the ability to interface with the text and these security lawyers break this without thinking about it

r/legaltech on Reddit

Finding resources for accessibility when creating documents is very limited.

r/Design on Reddit

There is no one to talk to. The email listed on their website does not respond to anything.

Why those fall short

  • PDF tagging is an enormous PIA and time-consuming; exports have serious unfixable issues
  • Alt text cannot convey graphs; annotations are not accessible.
  • manual tagging and OCR correction take hours per document
  • PDFs and platforms are not accessible; remediation is manual and exhausting
  • no automated alt text or reading-order pass
