Four problems most tools leave unresolved.
The structural and technical requirements of accessible Arabic-language content are distinct. They require specific expertise to evaluate correctly — not a generic WCAG scanner with Arabic support bolted on.
PDF tag trees and HTML documents must specify RTL direction at the document level and maintain it throughout. Most export tools default to LTR — producing incoherent or reversed output for screen reader users accessing Arabic content.
Arabic diacritical marks (tashkeel/harakat) are semantically significant — they change word meaning and pronunciation. Inaccessible handling of diacritics means assistive technology users receive content stripped of meaning-bearing markers.
Academic content mixing Arabic with English, mathematical notation or technical terminology requires correct BIDI algorithm implementation in both documents and web interfaces. Without it, mathematical expressions and citations become unreadable.
Automated transcription tools have significantly lower accuracy for Arabic than for English — compounded by significant dialectal variation across the region. Deaf and hard-of-hearing learners receive inaccurate or absent text representations of spoken content.
Specialist evaluation for every Arabic challenge.
Haptic’s Arabic capability is not a future roadmap item. It is a present, structured capability delivered by trained evaluators with native Arabic language competency and deep accessibility expertise.
RTL direction evaluation
Structured assessment of document-level and element-level direction specification — ensuring tag trees and HTML correctly declare RTL and maintain it throughout.
BIDI implementation review
Human evaluation of bidirectional content — mixed Arabic/English text, mathematical expressions, technical terminology — for correct rendering and reading order.
Arabic caption review
Native Arabic-speaking reviewers assess caption accuracy — addressing the automated transcription accuracy gap and dialectal variation that tools cannot handle reliably.
Multi-framework reporting
For cross-jurisdictional organisations — documentation aligned to both international standards (WCAG 2.1 AA) and regional frameworks (TDRA, CST) in a single assessment cycle.
Featured market: UAE and KSA — with specific capability for Arabic-language content (RTL, BIDI, diacritics, captioning) and multi-framework reporting for cross-jurisdictional organisations.
