Three core service lines plus a focused healthcare practice. Each follows the same combined methodology — automated baseline, expert manual review, lived-experience testing.
01 · web & digital
web & digital accessibility auditing.
Definition. Comprehensive WCAG 2.1 and 2.2 conformance testing for websites and complex web applications.
The AI angle. We flag the structural and semantic issues that block both screen readers and AI crawlers — ensuring your site is optimized for the next generation of search alongside the audience the law already requires you to serve.
Deliverables. Prioritized issue reports, remediation guidance, and verification retesting.
Differentiator. Automated tools catch roughly 30% of accessibility issues. Our human testers catch the invisible 70% — and those are the ones that lose you users.

02 · native apps
native app testing — iOS & Android.
Definition. Specialized accessibility validation for mobile products using platform-specific testing protocols — VoiceOver on iOS, TalkBack on Android, Switch Control, Voice Control.
The differentiator. Real disabled testers validating real VoiceOver and TalkBack experiences. This is an underserved gap in the market that we have filled for over a decade through the A11y App Review program — a body of work that informs every native app engagement we deliver.
Deliverables. Annotated screen captures, recorded tester sessions (with permission), platform-specific findings, prioritized remediation roadmap.

03 · AEO/GEO strategy
AEO/GEO accessibility strategy.
Definition. Strategic consulting that connects your AI content strategy to your accessibility requirements. Semantic markup, heading hierarchy, structured data — the foundational elements that allow LLMs to ingest and rank your content accurately.
The focus. The structural overlap between WCAG-required semantic HTML and LLM-required content structure. The same H1 hierarchy that helps a screen reader user orient on the page is what helps an LLM understand the page's intent.
Deliverables. Content structure assessment, semantic markup recommendations, ongoing compliance checklist, remediation paths that improve both WCAG conformance and AI legibility in a single pass.
Honest about scope. We don't sell SEO. The SEO industry already owns the AEO/GEO conversation. What we sell is the slice of AEO readiness that is, in fact, an accessibility problem.

04 · healthcare · focused practice
healthcare accessibility.
A focused practice serving healthcare organizations — patient portals, clinical workflows, telehealth, member services. Accessibility under Section 508 + HIPAA + ADA together.
The equity argument. Accessibility failures in healthcare aren't a UX issue. They're an access-to-care issue. We test the actual patient journey with real disabled testers, not just compliance scans.
