Achieve more with digital accessibility
We’ll support you on your journey toward accessibility with thorough audits, realistic user tests, and inclusive UX design.
Together, we’ll break down barriers
An accessible user experience is …
… better for everyone. Digital accessibility means user-friendliness for everyone—regardless of whether they have permanent, temporary, or situational limitations, or no limitations at all.
Simple for everyone
Clear content, improved readability, and ease of use make it easier for everyone to interact with your digital offerings.
Accessible to everyone
An accessible user experience opens up new and equal opportunities for people to interact with your website.
Reliable for everyone
Accessible websites are stable, reliable, and compliant with the law. They build trust through clear standards and security.
User testing with relevant target groups
Real-world user tests with relevant target groups reveal actual usability issues by having participants:
- use their own assistive technologies,
- operate in their familiar surroundings and
- bring their own individual habits to the table.
These tests are particularly valuable when accessible development is already well underway. They help identify and eliminate any remaining obstacles. For early stages of development, however, expert reviews are often more effective.
After an initial quick check, we’ll support you wherever your users need you. Our services ensure that your website is accessible, legally compliant, and inclusive.
Tests with specific target groups
We test your website with affected users (remotely or in the lab) to assess its usability in everyday situations.
Manual expert review
We’ll test your website using our Quick Check to ensure full accessibility.
Design feedback
Our Design Studio checks your web design for compliance with WCAG 2.2 and makes it accessible.
Continuous monitoring
We use a monitoring tool to continuously track the progress of your website development.
Training for product teams
We train your teams so that digital accessibility is built into the process from the very beginning.
Accessibility statement
Based on the audit, we’ll create a legally compliant accessibility statement for your website.
Case Study: Accessibility with Substance
How we make accessibility understandable and achievable
At Energy Market Solutions, the goal was clear: The process of switching energy providers should not only be user-friendly but also accessible. That’s exactly where we stepped in to help—with a thorough accessibility audit, clearly documented tickets for developers, step-by-step implementation, and quality assurance.
The menu bar cannot be navigated using a keyboard or a screen reader and is therefore unusable for many people.
Alt text is not descriptive, elements such as buttons or forms are not properly labeled, and unnecessary elements in the code are a problem.
Some elements on the page do not have sufficient contrast and are therefore unreadable to many people or disappear entirely.
Claudia Pineda De Castro is our specialist in core accessibility competencies
Our senior UX designer, Claudia, is a certified professional in core accessibility competencies—accredited by the International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP).
The certificate attests to her in-depth expertise and highlights her outstanding commitment to making digital products accessible to everyone.
Together with our accessibility team, she helps you identify, understand, and permanently eliminate digital barriers.
Why user testing is essential
Automated testing tools and expert analyses are helpful, but they can never replace real user testing when it comes to achieving digital accessibility. Only through practical testing can we determine whether the measures taken are truly accessible or whether they still contain undiscovered barriers.
User testing with affected target groups provides valuable insights into digital accessibility, but it can also be complex to carry out. We’ll show you what to look out for.
Accessibility is more complex than we thought—a plugin alone isn’t enough. Userlutions gave us honest advice and empowered us with clear explanations and practical implementation tips.
