JAWS

JAWS (Job Access With Speech) is a screen reader for Windows developed by Freedom Scientific that converts on-screen text and interface elements into synthesized speech or braille output. It is widely used by people who are blind or have low vision, particularly in professional and workplace settings where compatibility with complex software like Microsoft Office or enterprise applications is critical. JAWS is considered the most feature-rich Windows screen reader available, though it requires a paid license, which makes cost a key factor when comparing it to free alternatives like NVDA.
