Accessibility that is operational, not optional.
wA11y is an end-to-end framework designed to encode WCAG 2.2 AA standards into the entire product lifecycle. We move accessibility from a final audit step to a shared system of tokens, logic, and role-based governance.
The Architecture (The 3 Pillars)
Most teams already know accessibility matters.
What’s missing is clear ownership clear ownership, shared defaults, and practical guidance at the moment decisions are made.
Accessibility Hub
Role-based toolkits for Designers, Developers, and PMs that provide “Quick Wins” and actionable checklists for everyday work
The Design System
A token-driven system where contrast, legibility, and focus states are inherited at the root, reducing technical debt by default
Practice & Adoption
Standardized governance workflows, including our Component Vetting Matrix and Handoff Annotation guides.
We fix accessibility at the source
70% of accessibility defects originate in the design phase. wA11y “Shifts Left” by providing designers and developers with pre-vetted logic before the first line of code is written.
Design Tokens: Contrast-safe color pairings and dyslexia-friendly typography.
Interaction Patterns: Standardized keyboard and screen reader behaviors for complex UI.
Governance: A repeatable protocol for auditing third-party libraries.
System Statistics
WCAG 2.2 AA
Our baseline standard for all tokens and components.
44x44px
The non-negotiable minimum touch target for all interactive elements.
3px Solid
The system-wide focus ring standard for high-visibility navigation.
0% Reliance
We never convey meaning through color alone.
Accessibility beyond the code
Inclusion happens in meetings, emails, and documents. Access our Everyday Essentials to ensure your entire team’s culture is as inclusive as your product.
