Public health communications
Health alerts and outreach every community can act on
Your notices reach people of every reading level, in many languages. When a health alert or a screening reminder is hard to read, people miss care. HealthLiteracyCopilot scores alerts and outreach against N-PLAT and PEMAT, measures Spanish in Spanish, runs Section 508 checks in Word and HTML and translates the result.

Reach across languages
- Why it matters
- In HRSA's data, 27.7% of health center patients are best served in a language other than English.
- How HealthLiteracyCopilot helps
- Dates, amounts, "do not" rules and links are compared between English and each translation. Risky text goes to a human translator.
We don't promise reach. Track your own response by language to see what changes.
Screening and program sign-ups
- Why it matters
- A reminder or a sign-up page only works if people can find what to do and how.
- How HealthLiteracyCopilot helps
- Each piece is scored against N-PLAT, PEMAT and readability formulas, with the reason for each score and an edit your team approves.
We don't promise more sign-ups. Your program data shows what changes.
Access barriers fixed
- Why it matters
- People who use a screen reader or need larger text need the same alert as everyone else.
- How HealthLiteracyCopilot helps
- Section 508 checks on headings, alt text, tables and contrast, against WCAG 2.1 AA, in Word and HTML. A reviewer decides each finding.
