FormGenius

FormGenius was born out of a simple frustration: there was no affordable, easy way to create truly accessible PDF forms.

Working with disability organisations, we saw first-hand how inaccessible forms created real barriers. People couldn't complete applications for services they were entitled to. They couldn't submit feedback or complaints. They had to phone in and dictate information — assuming they could find a phone number.

The tools that could produce accessible PDFs were either prohibitively expensive or required specialist knowledge that most organisations don't have. Smaller organisations — charities, local businesses, community groups — were left with no practical option.

FormGenius takes a different approach. Our WYSIWYG editor lets anyone design a form visually or with keyboard controls and a screen reader, and the Accessibility Wizard guides them through the checks needed for compliance — without requiring any technical knowledge of WCAG or PDF/UA.

The exported PDF automatically includes a full tagged structure tree, XMP metadata, document language, marked content sequences, and all the low-level machinery that screen readers need. The person creating the form doesn't need to know any of that — they just need to fill in the alt text and check the wizard's recommendations.

We offer a genuinely free tier with no account required — because we believe accessible forms should be available to every organisation, regardless of budget.

Standards we build to: FormGenius targets conformance with recognised accessibility standards.

WCAG 2.2 Level AA The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines from the W3C. Level AA is the standard referenced by UK legislation. Our editor and exported PDFs target AA conformance.

PDF/UA (ISO 14289-1) The international standard for accessible PDF documents. Our exports include tagged structure trees, marked content, XMP metadata, and document language — the technical requirements for screen reader compatibility.

Privacy by default All PDF generation happens client-side. No tracking, no analytics, no cookies (except essential auth for Pro users). The free tier processes zero personal data on our servers.

Digital accessibility isn't just good practice — it's the law. FormGenius can help you evidence you comply with the following Acts, thought our accessibility wizards report feature.
