Municipalities and other organisations face a major challenge: reaching everyone with clear, understandable, and accessible communication.
This is not only socially important, but also a legal requirement in the EU. From June 2025, the European Accessibility Act (EAA) will make this mandatory by law.
Accessible communication starts with understandable texts and ends with full digital accessibility.
That’s why we’ve partnered with Tolkie. Textmetrics and Tolkie are a perfect match! Together, they offer a complete solution for organizations that truly want to leave no one behind.
Step 1: Clear and understandable texts with Textmetrics
Textmetrics is the AI writing assistant for organizations that want to communicate clearly, inclusively, and accessibly. Our software helps you write at B1 language level, with a focus on:
- Reader-focused writing
- Proper sentence length and structure
- Inclusive language (gender, age, background)
- Real-time feedback in your own writing environment
Whether it’s for web content, letters, or policy documents, Textmetrics ensures your content is understandable to all citizens.
Step 2: Digital reading support with Tolkie
Even the best-written text is not always easy to understand. Many people read at A2 level including those with low literacy, non-native speakers, or native speakers with limited reading skills. Tolkie was developed for and with these users.
The Tolkie Reading Assistant:
- Was developed by and for people with low literacy, based on their input and needs
- Offers definitions of difficult words, summaries, and visual support
- Works as a plug-in on any website and complements existing text-to-speech tools
- Increases digital accessibility and empowers users to navigate content independently
The result:
-> Clear and usable content, even for those reading at A2 level
-> True inclusion based on the needs of the audience
-> Accessible public services in line with the modern digital government
-> Full compliance with the European Accessibility Act (EAA)
