Product Updates

Over the next few weeks, the YuJa Panorama LMS Accessibility Platform will roll out new features to ensure caption compliance for Canvas-embedded videos, provide a guided experience across accessibility tools, offer a redesigned support experience that makes it faster and easier for instructors and admins to get assistance, and so much more.

1. Ensure Caption Compliance for Canvas-Embedded Videos

   Videos uploaded to Canvas and embedded via the Canvas Media Player in the WYSIWYG editor are now automatically checked for captions. Any video without captions will be flagged, helping instructors maintain accessibility standards and ensuring all students have equal access to course content.

   

2. Guided Experience Across Accessibility Tools

   First-time users now get a guided walkthrough across Alternative Formats, the Accessibility Report, and Structural Remediation Max, helping them quickly familiarize themselves with each interface. Banners, overlays, and prompts highlight key actions and navigation points, while admins can enable default settings to display guidance after course scanning. This update improves usability, accelerates onboarding, and boosts adoption and confidence with our accessibility tools.

   

3. Get Help Instantly with the New Support Modal

   The support experience has been redesigned to make it faster and easier for instructors and admins to get assistance. Clicking Support now opens a modal with tailored options: Live Chat, Call Support, Contact Form, and Product Docs. This streamlined modal centralizes support actions, giving users faster, more intuitive access to help when they need it.

   

4. Expanded Accessibility Coverage for Moodle Lesson Pages

   YuJa Panorama now scans additional Moodle lesson content pages, generating full accessibility reports and providing alternative formats. When lesson content is remediated through Panorama, the updated, accessible version can now replace the original content, ensuring fixes are reflected directly in the course without manual rework.

   

5. Share Accessible DocHub Folders Instantly for Seamless Collaboration

   Instructors can now share Accessible DocHub folders, making it simple to distribute multiple documents at once. This streamlines workflows, saves time, and ensures course materials are easily accessible wherever they’re needed, helping teams collaborate more efficiently and maintain accessibility compliance.

   

6. Free Trial: See How the YuJa Full-Circle Inline Remediation Module Speeds Up Accessibility Compliance

   Users can now start a free trial of the YuJa Full-Circle Inline Remediation Module to experience how inline fixes and guided remediation workflows reduce content remediation time by 95%+. By resolving accessibility issues directly within documents, institutions can eliminate manual rework, accelerate compliance efforts, and scale remediation across large volumes of content with far less effort before committing.

   

7. Centralize Course Materials with a Default DocHub Folder

   Admins can now upload content into a default DocHub folder accessible to all instructors. This creates a centralized, organized location for important documents, reducing reliance on external tools like Google Drive and making it easier for instructors to find and use shared course materials efficiently.

   

8. Added Support to Rename DocHub Folders for Better Organization

   Users can now change DocHub folder names after they’ve been created. This allows instructors and admins to keep folders organized, update naming conventions, and ensure content is easy to find as courses and materials evolve over time.

   

We’re rolling out updates to YuJa Panorama’s Structural Remediation Max capabilities over the next few weeks, which include a new Microsoft Office Add-in for PowerPoint that enables inline accessibility remediation and automated fixes with YuJa AutoPilot, without ever leaving the presentation.

1. YuJa Panorama Office Add-in Now Available in PowerPoint

   The YuJa Panorama Office Add-in is now available for Microsoft PowerPoint, extending support beyond Word. Instructors and content creators can open the Accessibility Report directly within PowerPoint and remediate issues inline, without leaving the presentation. With YuJa AutoPilot, common accessibility issues can be addressed automatically, reducing manual effort while helping ensure slide content meets accessibility requirements faster and at scale.

   

Enhancements to the YuJa Full-Circle Inline Remediation Module add font-size remediation for PDFs, accelerating accessibility workflows, supporting OCR-related fixes, and reducing manual effort to meet compliance standards.

1. Accelerate PDF Accessibility with Font-Size Remediation The YuJa Full-Circle Inline Remediation Module now supports font-size remediation for PDFs, helping institutions quickly address accessibility flags that require OCR injection. This feature speeds up remediation workflows, ensures PDFs meet accessibility standards, and reduces the time spent manually fixing document text for compliance.

Rolling out over the next few weeks, new updates to the YuJa DocAssist Accessibility Module allow admins to review and approve instructor requests, helping institutions maintain workflow oversight, prevent misuse, and better manage accessibility remediation spending.

1. Approve DocAssist Requests to Optimize Spending and Workflow

   Administrators can now review and approve instructor requests for the YuJa DocAssist Accessibility Module before they are sent to YuJa. This ensures requests are intentional, prevents misuse, and helps optimize spending, especially for page-based remediation, while keeping workflows efficient and under institutional control.

   

The YuJa AccessNotes Note-Taking Platform is now the YuJa Intelio AI Knowledge Assistant, reflecting an expanded focus beyond note-taking to a personal, AI-powered student assistant that delivers instant, course-specific guidance, supports ongoing conversations, and centralizes course content for a more seamless learning experience.

1. YuJa Intelio AI: Your Personal Knowledge Assistant

   Intelio AI transforms course content into an interactive, AI-powered study assistant, helping students stay organized, informed, and supported throughout their courses. Accessible from the sidebar, students can ask course-specific or general questions and revisit previous conversations for continuous guidance.

   Key benefits include:

   • Instant, Personalized Support: Students get immediate answers about assignments, quizzes, deadlines, and announcements, keeping them on track without searching through course materials.

     

   • Seamless Study Experience: New chats can be created while older conversations remain accessible, allowing students to manage multiple questions and study sessions efficiently.

     

   • Centralized Course Guidance: Intelio AI provides one place for students to explore course content, reducing confusion and making learning more intuitive and efficient.
