With askVERA, it takes minutes to create easy read documents

Accessible information shouldn’t take weeks. With askVERA, it takes minutes.

● Accessible information

Accessible information shouldn’t take weeks & with askVERA, it only takes minutes.

Turn the documents you already have into clear, professional Easy Read documents that people can genuinely understand, in about five minutes.

You know the feeling. Someone hands you a form, a letter, or a policy document, and within seconds your eyes glaze over. Dense paragraphs. Jargon. Tiny print. You skim, you sigh, and you promise yourself you’ll “read it properly later.”

Now imagine that isn’t the occasional annoyance. Imagine it’s almost everything written down around you: your health information, your benefits, your rights, and every page might as well be in another language.

For people with learning disabilities, low literacy, or language barriers, that’s not an exaggeration. It’s daily life. And the result is rarely dramatic. It’s quieter than that: confusion, anxiety, missed appointments, unclaimed support, and a slow kind of exclusion that most of us never even notice.

That’s the problem we built askVERA to solve.

How askVERA makes Easy Read documents

In one sentence: askVERA takes the documents you already have and turns them into clear, professional Easy Read documents that people can genuinely understand, in about five minutes.

Here’s the whole process:

  1. Add your contentUpload a PDF or Word document, drop in a URL, search for a topic, or simply paste your text.
  2. Let VERA workIt rewrites the content in plain language, gives it a clear structure, and adds PCS® symbols from Tobii Dynavox to support understanding visually.
  3. Make it yoursStyle your easy read documents to match your organisation’s branding, add your own images, or generate AI images from a simple prompt.
  4. Review and doneThe output looks professional, reads clearly, and is ready to share.

No specialist training. No consultant briefing. No queue. Just upload, review, done.

Who it’s for

Honestly? Almost any organisation that produces written information for people, which is most of them. But askVERA tends to make the biggest difference in a few places:

Public sector & local government

Benefits guidance, housing letters, council updates: documents that shape people’s lives should be understandable by everyone, not only those with a degree.

Healthcare providers

A patient who can’t understand their care plan can’t follow it. Easy Read consent forms, referral letters, and discharge notes aren’t a nice-to-have. They’re patient safety.

Education & training

Policies, enrolment forms, course materials. When learners can actually read what’s expected of them, everything runs more smoothly.

Charities & non-profits

You’re already working hard to support people. askVERA keeps the information you produce in step with that commitment.

HR & enterprise teams

Employee handbooks, compliance docs, onboarding packs. Clearer internal communication helps everyone, especially neurodiverse colleagues who find dense text exhausting.

If you write it,
askVERA can make it
Easy Read.

“Can’t we just hire a specialist writer?”

You can, and some organisations do. But Easy Read specialists are expensive, turnaround can stretch into weeks, and the moment a document changes, you’re back at the end of the queue. For most teams, that simply doesn’t scale.

  • SpeedEasy Read drafts in under five minutes, not weeks.
  • ConsistencyThe same clear, accessible style every single time.
