About Reachablr

Accessibility isn't a plugin

Overlay tools and widget scripts are everywhere. They promise instant WCAG compliance by injecting JavaScript onto your page. But they don't fix the underlying code — they mask issues from automated scanners while leaving real barriers in place for users who depend on assistive technology.

Keyboard users still hit focus traps. Screen reader users still encounter unlabeled controls. Color contrast still fails. The widget fires after page load, too late to catch the problems baked into your components and markup.

Accessibility has to be addressed where problems are created: in the codebase, in pull requests, at the earliest point in the development lifecycle. Patching at the browser edge is not a substitute for fixing the source.

Our Mission

Make full-SDLC accessibility affordable and honest — covering the parts of the development lifecycle that overlay tools can't touch.

That means URL scanning to find live regressions, codebase analysis to catch problems before they ship, PR-level gating so issues don't merge in the first place, and auto-fix to resolve the common patterns at scale. All at a price that doesn't require an enterprise procurement process to justify.

We eat our own dogfood

Building accessibility tooling and shipping an inaccessible site would be inconsistent. So we hold this site to the same standard we ask of our customers.

  • WCAG 2.1 Level AA: This site targets full conformance with WCAG 2.1 AA — the same standard Reachablr helps your team achieve.
  • Axe-gated CI: Every component in this site passes axe-core automated testing before it can merge. No accessibility violations ship.
  • Keyboard and screen reader testing: We test keyboard-only navigation and run VoiceOver / NVDA on every interactive flow before each release.
  • Lint-time checks: eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y catches common ARIA and labeling mistakes during development.

These are verifiable facts, not aspirational claims. You can read the full details in our Accessibility Statement.

Who We Are

Reachablr is a small team building accessibility tooling for the full software development lifecycle. We're not selling a compliance checkbox — we're building tools that make it easier for development teams to find, fix, and prevent accessibility issues at every stage of their workflow.
