Blind-led accessibility audits for websites, portals, mobile apps, and customer-facing documents.
About Guidepost
Guidepost Accessibility helps businesses improve real usability through scoped audits, clear findings, and steady follow-through. The tone is intentionally plain: say what was reviewed, say what was found, and say what still needs work.
Founder perspective
The founder uses assistive technology directly, which helps keep the work anchored in task completion, announcements, labeling, recovery paths, and the practical details that determine whether a flow is actually usable.
Operating principles
What working together should feel like
Clients should know what is in scope, what is out of scope, what was tested, what needs attention first, and how follow-up will work. The goal is to reduce ambiguity, not create more of it.
What Guidepost will not do
Guidepost does not sell blanket approval language, instant compliance claims, or vague “AI score” outputs. If the scope is partial, the record should say so plainly.
What clients can expect
Clients get clear findings, implementation guidance, and scope notes that product, design, engineering, and leadership teams can use.
Automated tooling can support the workflow, but the service is grounded in manual testing, blind-led screen reader review, cross-platform browser coverage, and real task completion.
The internal tools, verification pages, and client experience are being built to be accessible from day one, not patched later.
Testing coverage
Testing can include Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android, with Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari where relevant.
