Make digital accessibility a natural part of your SDLC.
Applause helps digital brands create truly inclusive experiences that work seamlessly for all users.
With deep design and UX expertise, we empower teams to think beyond compliance and ensure exceptional experiences for everyone, everywhere.
Get accessibility testing capabilities that work within your current QA process:
- Gain insights from people with disabilities (PWD) spanning visual, hearing, mobility and cognitive impairments
- Ensure your products conform to standards, including WCAG, CVAA and EAA
- Leverage Applause for training and other resources to drive inclusivity throughout your organization
Find and fix what automated scans can’t and mitigate legal risk before launch.
Automated scanners may look like quick fixes, but they miss the human element of accessibility testing too often. This leaves companies at risk of legal and compliance issues down the road if not truly addressed with experienced human input.
Applause uses PWDs to perform human-in-the-loop testing on your products with team leads that have dedicated accessibility knowledge to ensure you are up to date with all the latest accessibility requirements.
- Real-world testing by people with disabilities using assistive technology
- WCAG and EAA accessibility experts providing findings and insights
- Flexible delivery either on demand or as a recurring QA layer within cycles
Applause’s software-enabled service embeds into your QA process without you needing to change a thing.
Unlike onboarding new QA testing tools or managed services with inflexible approaches, the Applause software testing service is intentionally designed to integrate into your current systems and processes.
We handle every detail end-to-end with you having to touch any part of your SDLC or add overheard to work with us.
