AudioEye Expands Digital Accessibility Services Amid European Accessibility Act Implementation
AudioEye, Inc., a leading digital accessibility company based in Tucson, Arizona, is significantly expanding its operations in the European Union as the European Accessibility Act (EAA) comes into effect. This legislation mandates that businesses ensure their digital products and services are accessible to individuals with disabilities, introducing substantial penalties for non-compliance. As organizations worldwide adapt to these evolving standards, U.S.-based companies increasingly turn to AudioEye’s platform to ensure their websites and applications meet the new requirements. The company’s growth trajectory in the UK and EU is particularly notable among mid-market and enterprise clients across various sectors, including retail, SaaS, transportation, and hospitality—all of which the EAA impacts.
CEO David Moradi emphasizes that digital accessibility is now a critical business requirement. AudioEye aims to assist organizations in avoiding hefty fines, mitigating legal risks, and fostering inclusive digital experiences. The company boasts over 15 years of experience in the accessibility space and offers a comprehensive approach that includes advanced automated issue detection, which identifies 500% more problems than its competitors. Additionally, AudioEye provides expert services for custom code fixes and unique legal support that offers a legal guarantee. With the EAA's compliance requirements aligning with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, organizations in the EU with over 10 employees and €2 million in annual revenue are now facing a pressing need to adapt their digital landscapes.
Testimonies from clients such as Xavier Gougeon from DataGalaxy underline AudioEye's effectiveness, highlighting the platform's advanced technology and scalability, which streamline accessibility management and enhance compliance efforts. As businesses navigate the complexities of the EAA, AudioEye positions itself as a vital partner in ensuring that digital content is not only compliant but also accessible to all users, thereby championing inclusivity in the digital age.
