Screen accessibility and annotation tools provide live on-screen drawing, visual rulers, magnification, and assistive overlays across desktop and browser environments. They are built for educators, remote presenters, and individuals with visual impairments, dyslexia, or ADHD who need to direct attention and improve reading focus. Unlike static image markup software or full presentation platforms, these utilities run continuously over any active window to enhance real-time display interaction without modifying underlying files.

This theme's recent-window count is below the current min-count filter, so it does not appear in the opportunity scorecard.
