Accessible Web helps companies implement web accessibility the right way, using browser native APIs and the accessibility tools that are already in the hands of the internet’s users. We believe the best way to do this is to help our customers discover accessibility issues quickly and understand how to fix them. We do this with our automated platform, as well as manual auditing services & tools.
Our flagship SaaS product, Accessible Web RAMP, runs over a million accessibility scans every month for our customers. Our bot, AccessibleWebBot ranks 135th on Cloudflare’s verified bot list. It aggregates and analyzes its findings to provide insights into issues and will recommend paths to remediation. The platform also serves as the foundation for our manual auditing tools, which includes a guided audit workflow in our Accessible Web Helper browser extension. We have over 20,000 users of this tool and counting. The services team at Accessible Web uses the extension exclusively when performing customer audits, and delivers their results to our clients within RAMP.
