What is Recite

Recite is a hosted service which is targeted at websites that do not have acceptable accessibility standards. A link is placed on the website, for example 'click for accessibility/read text'. Once this option has been selected Recite will be enabled. Recite is an online software as a service system that acts as a translation layer between the user and the website.

It transforms the format of websites, repackaging the content by adding disability functionality. Recite's current functionality includes translating web page content from text-to-speech, providing a bespoke user choice of high contrast colour schemes, the ability to enlarge words, as well as dictionary and thesaurus definitions. Recite does all of this online allowing the web page to be viewed in an enriched, highly accessible format. All of this is done instantly, online, with no software to install. The end result is a more accessible website, compliant with government regulations.
