Connectivo Platform Overview
Transcript
Digital accessibility has traditionally required a collection of separate tools and
a great deal of manual work.
scan a website, interpret long reports, send issues to developers, test the changes,
and then repeat the process as the website evolves.

Connectivo brings four connected steps into one continuous workflow.
First, Intelligent Website Discovery maps the complete digital experience,
including pages, documents, forms, and media associated with
the website.
Accessibility Analysis evaluates each page against WCAG success criteria and
validates the results through IBM Accessibility Checker.
Third, the AI Remediation Engine analyzes each issue in
context and generates accessibility fixes dynamically without modifying source code or
storing site data.
Those fixes are third-party validated by IBM Accessibility Checker so your team can
review the outcome with confidence.
Fourth, Server-Side Delivery makes the corrected experience available to users and assistive
technologies in real time.
Because each step flows directly into the next, teams can move from discovery and
analysis through remediation, validation, and delivery without rebuilding their website or managing
disconnected solutions.
Now let's look at how the portal is organized, beginning with Home. At the top, you'll see
a quick summary of how Connectivo works.
The What's New section highlights recent and upcoming capabilities, while
Learn Connectivo gives you direct access to training videos and documentation.
You'll find support contact information at the bottom of the page.
When you're ready to begin, select Scan a Site to add your website and start your first accessibility
audit.
The dashboard gives you an organization-wide view of accessibility performance across all
your sites.
Summary metrics and trends help you understand overall progress, while AI
Insights brings attention to patterns that may otherwise be difficult to recognize.
Connectivo AI analyzes results across every site and rolls up findings such
as gaps in crawl coverage, shared templates responsible for violations across many
pages or sites where AI fixes has not been enabled.
The insights are ranked by their potential impact and link you directly to the affected
sites, helping your team focus on the actions that can make the greatest difference.
Sites is the main work area for managing website accessibility in Connectivo.
From here, you can add websites, monitor scans, and open a specific site to review
its accessibility workflow and results.
The Sites list shows each website's current state, scan status, audit
coverage, and whether page or file autofix is enabled.
You can also see how many pages Connectivo discovered and how many contain accessibility violations.
Search and sort help you quickly locate a specific site.
When you're ready to evaluate another website, select New to add the site and begin the scanning process.
When you open a site, the overview gives you a high-level picture of its latest accessibility
audit and overall progress.
At the top, you can follow the complete workflow from crawling and reporting through fixing,
verification, and publishing.
You can also see whether AI autofix is enabled, run additional actions, or
export a summary report.
As you move through the page, Connectivo summarizes what was scanned across the site's
pages and files,
the violations it identified, and the improvement achieved through remediation.
It also shows how many issues were fixed or partially fixed, anything still needing review, and any
report failures that require attention.
This gives you one place to understand what Connectivo discovered, how much accessibility
improved, and where additional work may still be needed.
The page report takes you from the site-level summary into the accessibility results for individual
web pages.
You can organize the report by page when you want to review a specific part of the website,
or by violation when you want to understand how the same accessibility issue appears across
multiple pages.
The summary shows overall remediation progress while the report identifies each page's
fixed status,
original issues, remaining issues, publishing status, and anything requiring review.
From here, you can open a result to compare the original and remediated versions,
the AI-generated patch behind a violation, and see whether verification confirmed that the
fix resolved the issue.
Files brings discovered documents into a dedicated work area,
so you can manage file accessibility without searching through individual web pages.
Connectivo's AI-powered remediation can address PDFs and Microsoft Office documents,
including accessibility needs such as tagging, alternative text, and reading order.
The files list shows each document's current state and processing status,
its file type and source URL, whether autofix is enabled, and the number of upstream
accessibility issues identified.
The linked site ID helps you understand which website the document came from,
while search and sort make it easier to locate a specific file.
Files are discovered automatically during your website scan.
To add a document directly, select New.
Media brings discovered video content into a dedicated work area,
so you can manage media accessibility without searching through individual web pages.
Connectivo's AI-powered remediation can help address accessibility needs such as
captions for video content.
The media list shows each item's current state and processing status,
its media type and source, and when it was created or last updated.
Search and sort make it easier to locate a specific media item and monitor its
progress.
Media is discovered automatically during your website scan.
To add media content directly, select New.
Audits provides a central history of scan activity across Connectivo.
Use it to find previous runs, check their status,
and return to earlier results when you need to document or compare progress.
Each row identifies the audit type and source,
along with its coverage, scope, and accessibility standard.
You can also see whether page or file autofix was enabled,
and review page counts, scan pages, and any broken links or pages detected during the run.
Search and sort make it easier to locate a specific audit when you need to review its details.
The Knowledge Base contains the approved information used to support the AI chatbot.
The chatbot is an optional feature that can be added to your website,
giving visitors a conversational way to find answers grounded in content your organization controls.
Each Knowledge Base can be organized around a website, service, or topic.
From the screen, you can check its current state, review its name and description,
and see when it was created or last updated.
Search and sort help you quickly locate a specific Knowledge Base.
To create a new Knowledge Base of approved chatbot content, select New.
AI chatbot is where you manage the conversational assistance
powered by your approved Knowledge Base content.
Each chatbot can be configured for a specific website,
helping visitors find relevant information through a natural conversation.
From this screen, you can see which chatbots are active or still in draft,
along with who created or last updated them.
Search and sort make it easy to locate a specific chatbot.
To configure a new chatbot and connect it with the appropriate Knowledge Base, select New.
Connectors extend Connectivo to content stored in external platforms,
including OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, SharePoint, and Canvas.
They provide secure access, support data synchronization,
and bring content from these systems into a more streamlined Connectivo workflow.
Each card identifies the external platform and whether the connector is active.
To establish or update a connection with one of these platforms, select Configure.
Settings includes roles, communication templates, users, and groups.
These administrative options help control access, organize users, and manage system communications.
What you can see or change depends on your assigned access.
Connectivo turns accessibility from a series of disconnected, manual tasks
into one continuous, intelligent workflow.
Your team can discover barriers, use AI to help remediate them,
verify the improvement, and continue monitoring as your digital content changes.
