Every organisation that ships digital learning content.
The content exists. The access may not. Haptic serves every organisation where that gap is consequential.
Accessibility as a production standard.
A publisher with a catalogue of 10,000 titles that has never embedded accessibility into its production workflow does not have a compliance problem. It has an infrastructure problem. Remediating content retroactively, title by title, against a legal deadline, is extraordinarily expensive.
Production pipelines without accessibility
Content designed, authored and delivered with no accessibility check at any stage. The first evaluation happens when an institution’s legal team flags it — by which point it is already in students’ hands.
Assessment embedded in the pipeline
When assessment becomes part of intake, the cost per title drops dramatically compared to retroactive remediation. Problems are caught before the file is finalised, before it is delivered to an institution, before a student encounters it.
Accessibility as a governance standard.
For institutions, Haptic operates at two levels simultaneously: what you are legally required to demonstrate, and what your students actually experience. The legal obligation is clear. The student experience argument is more important.
Legal defensibility
“We assessed it against WCAG 2.1 AA criteria using a structured evaluation process, documented the findings, remediated the gaps, and have the verification records” — that is a defensible position. “We believed it was accessible” is not.
Procurement validation
Before a third-party tool is deployed to 30,000 students. Before a courseware package is integrated into next term’s curriculum. Haptic provides a structured, verifiable answer to the question every institution should be asking: does this actually work for everyone?
Student experience
Institutions spend significant resources on content to improve learning outcomes. Every piece of inaccessible content is a partial or total negation of that investment for a portion of the student population. This is not a disability services issue. It is a core educational quality issue.
Workplace learning has the same obligations.
Workplace learning accessibility is not a future consideration. Every employee with a disability attempting to complete your compliance training, onboarding programme or skills course deserves content that actually works for them.
Legal context
ADA and Section 504 apply to employer-provided training. UK Equality Act. EU accessibility directives. The regulatory environment for corporate content is the same as for academic content — and enforcement is accelerating.
Operational scale
Large organisations run SCORM content libraries of thousands of modules across multiple LMS platforms — often built across many years by many vendors. Haptic’s bulk processing and managed workflow are designed for that reality.
Building for national visions.
Haptic is not arriving in this region to audit institutions against a foreign standard. It is arriving as a platform that can help UAE and KSA institutions build and verify the accessible digital education ecosystems their own national visions demand.
The UAE has made inclusion — the empowerment of People of Determination — a formal national commitment backed by policy, infrastructure and institutional accountability. The TDRA’s digital accessibility guidelines and Smart Dubai’s service standards are operational frameworks that institutions operating in the UAE are expected to align with.
For branch campus universities — NYU, Sorbonne, Heriot-Watt — Haptic offers a single platform that satisfies the accessibility obligations of the home institution (ADA, EAA) while simultaneously aligning with UAE institutional quality expectations.
Saudi Vision 2030’s Human Capability Development Program is a funded, monitored national programme with specific targets for education quality and digital readiness. NEOM represents an opportunity to build educational infrastructure accessible by default. The institutions and publishers that build to standard now will not face the disruption of retroactive compliance later.
Major institutions — King Abdulaziz University, King Saud University, KAUST — are building digital learning ecosystems at scale. Arabic-language platforms including Edraak and Rwaq serve millions of learners across the Arab world.
