POUR stands for perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. Briefly, these mean the following:

  • Perceivable: Can users recognize that there is content?
  • Operable: Can users use the content and components?
  • Understandable: Is the information and way to navigate understandable?
  • Robust: Can many users and many technologies use the content or components?
