Making Technology Work the Way You Do
Are you a JAWS user struggling with an inaccessible application?
Do you find yourself wasting time on repetitive steps or searching endlessly for key information on the screen?
Would you like to move through a website or browser-based program quickly and have important sections spoken automatically?
Or are you an employer who needs to ensure a visually impaired colleague can work efficiently and independently?
If so — you’ve come to the right place. These are exactly the kinds of challenges Hartgen Consultancy solves every day.
Why JAWS Scripting?
JAWS scripting can transform how blind and visually impaired people interact with technology. It goes far beyond simply reading what’s on screen — it creates intelligent, customised communication between JAWS and almost any application.
Whether it’s a desktop program, a browser-based system, or a complex internal database, JAWS scripts can:
- Simplify complex tasks.
- Automate repetitive actions.
- Provide clear speech and Braille feedback.
- Add shortcut keys for faster navigation.
- Enable true independence and productivity at work or home.
Hartgen Consultancy is recognised worldwide for reliable, user-centred scripting. Our solutions are used by individuals, government departments, major corporations, and international organisations. We also provide scripting services to other accessibility specialists who rely on our expertise.
The Hartgen Consultancy Difference
Our scripting isn’t just about making things work — it’s about making them work well. We develop scripts tailored precisely to your needs, ensuring a natural, efficient, and enjoyable experience with your chosen software.
We have created solutions for a wide range of environments, including:
- Microsoft Teams and Zoom.
- Slack and Google Workspace apps.
- Bespoke Microsoft Access and SQL databases.
- Call centre systems and soft-phone environments.
- Browser-hosted enterprise applications and portals.
When applications change, so must their scripts. Many clients choose a support retainer to ensure that if updates break functionality, fixes can be made quickly. We can also provide guidance to IT departments on how to back up JAWS scripts for disaster recovery or machine rebuilds.
What Is a JAWS Scripting Assessment?
A JAWS Scripting Assessment is the first step toward full accessibility. It allows us to test your application, identify accessibility barriers, and determine the best scripting approach.
During the assessment:
- We install JAWS on a suitable computer and examine how it interacts with your software.
- We work with a knowledgeable staff member who can demonstrate the tasks the JAWS user needs to perform.
- We gather input from the JAWS user to understand their current skill level and specific needs.
Following this, we provide a detailed written report explaining:
- Where JAWS performs well.
- What accessibility issues exist.
- The recommended actions to make the program fully usable.
This report gives you a clear path toward a working solution — whether you’re an individual user, an employer, or an accessibility consultant.
Assessment Pricing
There are two assessment options:
- Individual and Student Rate: £240
- Commercial Rate: £595
Once the assessment has been completed, we will discuss the scope of scripting work required and provide a quotation based on your specific needs.
