Recite is an online software as a service system, which acts as a translation layer intercepting websites online in accessible formats. It repackages them and adds disability functions from text-to-speech, high contrast colour schemes, enlarging words through to dictionary and thesaurus definitions. All this information is sent to the user's browser in an easily accessible format. This happens immediately and online with no software to install, hence instant access and usability on any computer for any website .
