Sound familiar?
Your Ally Score is less than 90%.
You have four options. Three of them fall short. The fourth is FixAllyScore. Which one do you choose?
How it works
Connect. Scan. Fix. Publish. That's it.
The whole loop takes minutes for a typical course. Here's what it actually looks like. No narration, no marketing voiceover, just a real Canvas course being scanned and fixed.
Step 130 sec
Paste your Canvas token
Grab a token from your Canvas profile settings and paste it into FixAllyScore. It uses the same standard Canvas API that your institution already supports.
Step 21-2 min
Scan the whole course
Every page, assignment, and uploaded file. You see exactly what's flagged, color-coded by severity, and whether each issue can be auto-fixed, needs a quick look, or needs your manual attention.
Step 315-60 min
Approve. Publish back.
See each proposed fix side by side with a confidence score. Approve, reject, or edit inline. One click writes every correction back into Canvas. Your Ally score updates automatically.
What it fixes
Every item on Ally's list. Handled.
These are the exact checks Ally runs against your course. FixAllyScore fixes them for real. Not by gaming the score, but by actually writing alt text, tagging PDFs, and repairing markup. Plain English so you know what each one actually means.
Images with no alt text
Ally flags every image that doesn't have a description. FixAllyScore writes one based on context and the surrounding content. You approve it or edit it. No more dozens of alt text fields to hand-fill.
Untagged PDFs
The single biggest score-killer. Every uploaded lecture slide PDF, every scanned reading. FixAllyScore rebuilds the heading structure, figure labels, and table tags inside the PDF itself. Real PDF/UA tagging, not a workaround.
Broken heading order
Your page jumps from H1 to H4 with no H2 or H3 between. Ally flags it, and the fix means going in and relabeling every heading. FixAllyScore does the relabeling for you.
Low contrast text
Gray text on white. Ally flags it. FixAllyScore darkens the text just enough to pass the check without making your course look different. The smallest possible change that gets you through.
Tables with no headers
Ally wants your first row marked as column headers. Normally that means editing the raw HTML or remaking the table in Canvas. FixAllyScore does the markup change automatically.
Reformatted PowerPoints
The PowerPoint-accessibility dance: tag every image, set the reading order, add slide titles. FixAllyScore does the whole pass at once and uploads the fixed deck back to your course.
Word doc fixes
The other file format Ally loves to flag. Missing heading styles, unlabeled images, table issues. FixAllyScore runs a pass on every uploaded Word doc and replaces the file in Canvas.
Vague link text
"Click here" and "read more" get flagged because screen readers can't tell where the link goes. FixAllyScore finds them and suggests descriptive labels based on where the link actually points.
Embeds with no title
Embedded YouTube videos, Panopto recordings, or third-party tools that don't have a title attribute. FixAllyScore adds one based on the surrounding context.
You stay in control
Every fix shown to you. Nothing publishes without your click.
The last thing you want is a tool that silently rewrites your course and hopes. FixAllyScore shows you every proposed fix, explains what's wrong, and waits for you to approve. Reject anything. Edit anything. This is what the review screen actually looks like.
Results
What professors are saying.
Ally score: 38% → 91% · 25 minutes
I had six years of course content built up. Ally scored me at 38% and my chair wanted 90%. I was honestly about to pull my PowerPoints down rather than tag every slide. FixAllyScore found 63 issues and fixed 58 of them in one sitting. I clicked approve. Done.

12 courses cleaned up in one week
I support 40 faculty as an ID. Before FixAllyScore, "can you fix my Ally score" meant 6 to 8 hours per course per me. I ran FixAllyScore on 12 of our worst-scoring courses in a single week. Same work, 30 minutes each. I'm rolling it out department-wide.

PDF remediation without outsourcing
I had four scanned lecture PDFs that Ally scored at zero. The vendor quote to remediate them was $1,200. FixAllyScore tagged all four with real PDF/UA structure in about 15 minutes. I ran them through PAC afterwards and they passed. That's real money saved.

Your data stays yours
No AI. Limited cloud. Your content stays on your laptop.
FixAllyScore is a desktop app that runs entirely on your computer. No AI. Limited cloud only for account info and status. Your course content, your students' work, your uploaded PDFs never leave your machine. We literally cannot see it. No course content sent to any third party.
No AIDeterministic, not generative
FixAllyScore does not use AI, LLMs, or machine learning. Every fix is rule-based and deterministic. The same input produces the same output every time. No hallucinations. No guessing. No sending your content to OpenAI or anyone else.
How it worksRuns on your machine
FixAllyScore connects to Canvas using your own account token. Files are downloaded to your machine, processed locally, and corrections are written back through the standard Canvas API. Everything stays on your computer.
ComplianceFERPA-friendly by design
Course content never leaves your machine, so there's no data-sharing agreement needed. FixAllyScore works within your existing Canvas permissions and institutional policies.
Questions
What professors ask before they try it.
Is this just gaming the Ally Score, or are the fixes real?
The fixes are real. FixAllyScore writes actual alt text, injects real PDF/UA structure tags, marks actual table headers. A student using a screen reader will have a genuinely better experience. Ally will pass the course because it's actually passing. We're not spoofing the check. We're doing the work you'd do by hand, faster.
Is this instead of Canvas Ally?
No. They work together. Ally scores your course and tells you what's wrong. FixAllyScore fixes what Ally flagged and writes it back to Canvas. Your institution keeps paying for Ally. You use FixAllyScore to actually clear the flags.
How does it connect to Canvas?
Through your existing Canvas account. You generate a personal access token in your Canvas profile settings. This is the same standard method used by other Canvas tools and integrations your institution already supports.
Where does my course content go?
It stays on your laptop. FixAllyScore is a desktop app. Course pages, assignments, and PDFs are downloaded locally, processed on your machine, and written back to Canvas directly. Nothing is transmitted to us or any third party.
What if a fix is wrong?
You approve each fix before it publishes. If something does go wrong later, FixAllyScore keeps a local history of every change. Revert any single fix or an entire batch with one click.
What about stuff it can't fix automatically?
We flag it honestly as "manual." Complex STEM figures, math notation, inline styles Canvas strips. Some things need human judgment. We don't fake a fix. We tell you what needs your attention and leave the rest alone.
Can I expense this?
Yes. At $149/year, FixAllyScore sits within most university discretionary-expense and professional-development limits. We send a proper invoice for reimbursement. Many professors submit it alongside tools like Grammarly or Otter.
Does it work on Blackboard, Moodle, or Brightspace?
Canvas first. The same approach extends to other LMSes and is on the roadmap. If you're on another platform, email us and we'll let you know when it's ready.
