YourPDF Checker
The platform that makes PDF accessibility understandable
Most organizations publish PDFs that violate accessibility law without knowing it. YourPDF Checker scans every document against PDF/UA and WCAG 2.2 standards, explains what's wrong in plain language, and tells you exactly how to fix it, no technical knowledge required.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 Marijn here, co-founder of YourPDF Checker.
Most organizations have no idea which of their PDFs are accessible, and that's a real problem now that the European Accessibility Act is in full effect.
Here's what we kept seeing at Cardan, our accessibility consultancy: organizations would hire us for an audit, we'd flag dozens of non-compliant PDFs, they'd fix them and six months later their teams had published 200 new ones with the same issues. No one was watching. No one had a system.
The existing tools didn't help either. PAC is free but spits out technical PDF/UA error codes that communication teams can't act on. Adobe Acrobat Pro is expensive and only one person uses it. Neither gives you an organizational overview.
So the problem we're solving is this: organizations need to know, in plain language, which of their PDFs are compliant and stay on top of it continuously, not just after an audit.
YourPDF Checker checks against PDF/UA-1 and WCAG 2.2, explains what's wrong in human language, and gives teams a central dashboard to track their whole document library.
We built the free tier so you can check your first PDF in under a minute, no credit card needed, no installation.
Would love to hear what you think, and especially: what's your current workflow for PDF accessibility? 🙏
the plain language breakdown of issues is super helpful, like it actually tells you why something fails instead of just flagging it. wish more compliance tools worked this way.
