Assistive technology helps people access information, communicate clearly, and work or learn with greater independence. Our software adapts to how each person reads, writes, and communicates.
Our solutions are used every day in schools, universities, and organisations across the UK. Our tools support students with disabilities, neurodivergent learners, and employees who work better with tools that adapt to them.
Assistive technology includes tools, software, or devices that help people access and understand information more independently.
In education, assistive technology in the classroom can support pupils who learn differently, those with disabilities, and anyone who finds reading or writing easier with the right support.
In the workplace, it helps employees perform at their best regardless of how they read, write, or process information.
Our tools combine text-to-speech, writing support, and document accessibility to help more people read, write, and share their ideas with confidence.
Read&Write is a literacy support toolbar that brings together text-to-speech, writing support, and reading tools in one place. It works across the web, documents, and PDFs, helping students read, write, and understand information more independently.
OrbitNote makes PDFs accessible with Text-to-speech and annotations. Pupils can hear documents read aloud, annotate, highlight, and respond to content directly within the file. It makes PDFs easier to read, understand, and respond to.
Equatio gives pupils and teachers a more accessible way to create, read, and work with maths. From typed equations to speech input and handwriting recognition, it removes many of the barriers that make digital maths hard to read or create.
Everway for Work brings together Read&Write, MindView, and Global Tasks into one suite that helps neurodivergent employees understand information, organise their work, and communicate clearly.
Assistive technology supports a wide range of learning differences and workplace needs. Explore how Everway's solutions help specific neurodivergent profiles:
Technology that supports focus, organisation, and task completion for students and employees managing attention differences.

Assistive technology refers to any tool, software, or device that helps people access information, communicate, and engage with learning or work more independently. It supports people with disabilities, neurodivergent individuals, and anyone who benefits from a more flexible way of working with text, audio, or visual content.
Common examples include text-to-speech software, speech to text tools, word prediction, screen readers, and document accessibility tools. In education, assistive technology in the classroom might include literacy support software like Read&Write or PDF tools like OrbitNote. In the workplace, it can include reading and writing aids, task management tools, and mind mapping software.
Text-to-speech is one of the most widely used assistive technology tools for students with dyslexia, reducing the effort of decoding text and supporting comprehension. Read&Write combines text-to-speech with word prediction, vocabulary support, and writing aids to help dyslexic students access and engage with content more independently.
Assistive technology for ADHD typically focuses on reducing overwhelm, supporting focus, and helping with task management. Tools like Read&Write help by reading text aloud and chunking content, while OrbitNote supports active engagement with documents through annotation and highlighting.
Everway for Work is a suite of assistive technology tools. Read&Write provides text-to-speech, writing support, and screen masking for employees who need reading and writing assistance. Alongside this, MindView supports planning and structuring ideas visually, and Global Tasks helps employees manage workload through clear, prioritized steps.
Assistive technology gives neurodivergent employees the tools to work in the way that suits them, without needing to disclose a diagnosis or formally request support. When technology is available to everyone, it removes barriers quietly and consistently, helping organizations build genuinely neuroinclusive workplaces where all employees can contribute fully.
Text-to-speech converts written text into spoken audio, allowing users to listen to documents, web pages, emails, and more rather than reading them alone. As assistive technology, it reduces the cognitive load of decoding text, supports comprehension, and enables people to access written content in a way that works for them.
