https://gradtx.org/ provides you an opportunity to enter all of your courses and submit them to Texas universities that have degree completion programs. It is sort of an informal transcript evaluation. Most of the schools offer degree completion by distance education. This site allows you to do one stop shopping for degree completion in Texas. It has the names of schools nationwide already programmed in. It automatically knew the course titles of every course after only entering the school and the course descriptor (e.g., ENGL 1301).
It's what the Big Three should offer.
63 CLEP Sociology
75 CLEP U.S. History II
63 CLEP College Algebra
70 CLEP Analyzing and Interpreting Literature
68 DSST Technical Writing
72 CLEP U.S. History I
77 CLEP College Mathematics
470 DSST Statistics
53 CLEP College Composition
73 CLEP Biology
54 CLEP Chemistry
77 CLEP Information Systems and Computer Applications

This might work with well defined sources of credit like ACE, CLEP, DSST and others. But for credit coming from other colleges I believe that is not possible to automate the evaluation due to the many factors involved (syllabus content, credit hours, additional activities).
Personally I would rather prefer the system that Thomas Edison has, even with a longer delay. I feel that their personalized system is an improvement and
allows for better flexibility than an automated one.

Instead of speculating, you could try the site and let us know. It worked well for me.

I am aware that the website will not work well for me because I had a lot of foreign credit that did not convert exactly to American Courses
and that had to be evaluated specifically by TESC with additional feedback because the titles of the courses did not match the content.
In the same way, when I was searching for sources of credit for my degree.
I noticed that there is certain courses within the US that do not match exactly the clear cut equivalencies of ACE and they need to be evaluated
by a qualified advisor.
