Everything You Need to Know About Web Accessibility
Compliance & Legislation
As the digital world becomes more essential, lawmakers push for new legislation to enforce an inclusive internet for everyone. Due to the increased internet usage, many countries have incorporated web accessibility into existing civil rights legislation that protects people with disabilities or created new ones. Overall, enforcing an inclusive internet.
How Does Legislation Impact My Website?
In 2018, the DOJ clarified that websites are considered places of public accommodation and must comply with ADA Title III. In 2022, the DOJ reaffirmed it and recommended WCAG 2.1 AA as the best practice.
Inaccessible Websites Face Serious Legal Consequences
With exponential growth in web accessibility, legal actions have a widespread effect across industries, with small and medium businesses (SMBs) in the center.
Recently, many lawsuits have targeted SMBs on behalf of consumers with disabilities who cannot access their websites fully.
In fact, SMBs have been sued at an unprecedented rate in the last several years. And this often happened over websites that were inaccessible. Lawsuit numbers are estimated to continue to increase as the need to enable accessible digital experiences becomes more prominent.

Scan. Analyze. Deploy. Maintain.
Websites are dynamic and are constantly undergoing updates such as content updates, browser changes, optimization with performance tools, etc. These changes can compromise compliance, and compliance could be completely broken in just a few updates. Maintaining compliance is equally as important as achieving it in the first place.
Website visuals are common and universal, making it simple for a sighted user to follow the flow of a site. As long as the layout makes sense, we don’t care how a website is coded.
Our AI program applies the same “thinking” process while analyzing a site. It visually matches elements and behaviors to millions of past encounters to learn from context what elements actually do and their purpose on the page. Then all the necessary code adjustments are implemented to reflect blind people using screen readers precisely what’s on the screen and the purpose of every element, exactly as it was intended originally.

Image Recognition and OCR AI technologies
Our AI Software scans all images on the site. Whenever alternative text (Alt attributes) is missing, it will extract the embedded text using OCR and learn the objects that comprise the image using IRIS technology. Then it will automatically provide accurate and elaborate alternative text to these images. When a blind user enters a site, their screen reader will rely on these descriptions to communicate what is on the page.
