About WebAble

The web is not broken. It’s just unfinished.

1 in 5 people has a disability that changes how they use the web. Most sites make it harder. WebAble makes it easier, for the people using them and the teams building them.

Why we build

Access is a bottleneck problem.

Disability exposes the problem first, but the pattern is bigger: every person eventually hits an interface that does not match their body, mind, context, device, or attention. Technology multiplies what a person can do, and a bad interface is a tax on that multiplier. That tax is what WebAble is built to remove.

Where this came from

I’m green-orange colorblind. It’s rarely been in the way, except once, trying to wire my own ethernet cable. But that pinhole opened onto something bigger: vision, hearing, motor control, and attention can all become quiet bottlenecks when the interface isn’t ready for the person using it.

Technology is what expanded what I could do. It taught me, accelerated me, multiplied me. I want it to do that for more people, more often, with less friction. That’s the work.

SpeedEaseUnderstandingSociety

Fix one person’s interaction with the web and you fix what they can build, share, and pass on. Fix enough of them and the ripple becomes the shoreline.

Speed

Shorter path to the answer.

Reading mode, smart Q&A, OCR: anything that cuts the distance between "I need this" and "I have it."

Ease

Less friction per action.

Bigger targets, better contrast, fewer interruptions, voice-driven actions. A good interface disappears into the doing.

Clarity

Cleaner mental models.

Adaptive layouts, alt text with real context, structured content. The web stops being a maze and starts being a tool.

What we stand for

Mission

Build adaptive interfaces that expand what people can do online, while helping the teams behind websites improve the source.

Accessibility is the wedge. Adaptive interfaces are the category. Two halves of one loop, personal adaptation informs permanent fixes, and vice versa.

Vision

A web where access to technology compounds individual capability, and no one’s potential is bounded by a poorly built interface.

Inclusivity and performance are not in tension. The best interfaces serve the widest range of people, and that’s also what makes them fast.

Why now

Three forces are converging.

Legal frameworks, browser capabilities, and market gaps are arriving at the same time. That window doesn’t stay open.

300%

increase in ADA website claims from 2018–2023

01

Legal pressure

ADA website claims increased more than 300% between 2018 and 2023. WCAG compliance is now legally required across the EU (EAA), UK, and US for organizations above certain thresholds, and enforcement is expanding. Fear alone doesn't build better products, but the cost of inaction is no longer theoretical.

02

Technical timing

Modern browser tooling can read page structure, inspect the DOM, generate context-aware alt text, extract text from images, and help users adapt pages in real time. The underlying pieces (LLMs, structured DOM APIs, fast OCR) are finally cheap and fast enough to combine into something that works for real people.

03

Market gap

Overlay scripts promise compliance without the work, and frequently break screen readers. Enterprise consultants are thorough and expensive. WebAble is building for the missing middle: real automated analysis, actionable fix plans, and pricing that makes sense for teams shipping products, not managing audits.
