Overview

People with disabilities, 15% of the global population, control over $8T of disposable income. Yet, most brands miss out on this market because their websites and apps are inaccessible and incompatible with assistive technologies used by people with disabilities. There are also several legislations and regulations that mandate companies to make their digital offerings accessible. I-Stem uses a combination of latest technology, a dedicated team of people with and without disabilities with expertise in accessibility and usability, and a group of designers and engineers to provide feedback on accessibility of your digital collateral. This not only helps you meet legal compliance but also widens your reach and demonstrates your commitment to inclusion and equitable access for all.

Technology

Our SaaS platform provides you regular feedback on the accessibility of your websites and mobile apps. This combines AI and heuristic-based automated tests with in-depth manual testing. Trends and insights also provide you constant feedback on accessibility progress within your organization.

People

Our team of accessibility testers and engineers consists of people with and without disabilities with decade's of accessibility experience, users of assistive technologies and with certifications such as IAAP Certified Professional in Accessibility Core Competencies (CPACC), Web Accessibility Specialist (WAS), Certified Professional in Web Accessibility (CPWA) & DHS Trusted Tester certification. Having worked at leading MNCs as software engineers also helps us communicate effectively with your developers and provide actionable and concrete technical feedback.

Compliance

We help you comply with national and international legislations including India's Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act 2016, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as well as with accessibility standards and requirements including Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), section 508, and EN 301 549.

Voluntary product accessibility template

A Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) indicates a product’s conformance with accessibility standards and is highly recommended when working with governments. We work with you to develop this so as to demonstrate your commitment to accessibility and get an edge in procurement processes.

Cost-effective

We don't believe in expensive accessibility audits but instead prefer to work with you on an ongoing basis as your accessibility partner at extremely affordable rates.
