Workplace AI

With simple shortcut keystrokes, Workplace AI gives clear descriptions of windows, graphs, images, and other on-screen content. From lecture presentations to internal messages, Workplace AI unlocks the same course information a sighted student would see, with no delays or barriers, and adds a layer of interpretation that complements existing accessibility tools.

Workplace Connect

Workplace Connect makes it easy to get human help when needed. With one click, students can reach a trusted member of staff or trained agent through voice, with screen sharing, and temporary remote control – perfect for inaccessible LMS platforms. Admins can set up Workplace Groups so support is always available, while students decide when and how it’s used.

Workplace Reader

Workplace Reader turns inaccessible files into useful, accessible information, which can reduce time to remediate inaccessible course materials. It works alongside screen readers to provide summarized or richer descriptions across PDFs, presentations, and more, giving students full context and enabling them to continue learning without delays.

How it works

Launch and Log In

Students sign in securely using Single Sign-On (SAML2). The app runs quietly in the background, always ready when needed.

Instant Access

With a few keystrokes, the user can describe on-screen content, interpret documents or get quick explanations of clipboard items.

Support When Needed

If AI isn’t enough, users can switch to Workplace Connect with one click to reach a trusted teacher or trained support agent.

Keep Learning Moving

Screen sharing and optional remote control provide quick resolution, on the user’s terms, for real inaccessible barriers.

Scalable. Secure. Flexible.

Be My Eyes Workplace for Education Providers is available in flexible tiers to meet different organizational needs and levels of accessibility maturity. Built as a scalable, enterprise-grade platform, it supports Single Sign-On (SAML) and meets SOC 2 security standards. It works on Windows and macOS, with optional Meta AI glasses integration, allowing organizations to start small and scale with confidence.
