The accessibility industry is facing its reckoning.
For years, companies sold “overlays” - scripts that claimed to make websites accessible overnight. They promised ADA compliance with a single line of code.
But overlays didn’t fix anything. They just hid the problem.
Behind every broken widget was a disabled individual or family trying to live their life. Someone who still couldn’t apply for a job, a parent who couldn’t order groceries, or a student who couldn't read a page online.
Negligence turned daily tasks into barriers. Greed turned accessibility into a business model.
Those shortcuts created a false sense of safety and a trail of lawsuits, broken trust, and exclusion.
Accessibility was never supposed to be a marketing slogan. It’s a human right.
The industry is finally waking up, realizing that compliance isn’t something you fake, it’s something you build.
Compliance isn’t a widget. It’s real code. It’s care. It’s inclusion.
That’s why we built @Auditvia - an AI-native accessibility platform that fixes issues at the source and protects the disabled individuals and families who rely on access to the web every day.
Code-level scans. Automated pull requests. Legal-grade audit logs.
Accessibility done right isn’t about checking boxes.
It’s about protecting people and building a web everyone can use.
When overlays fail, accessibility fails with them.
A single broken script can make a site unusable for millions who rely on screen readers or keyboard navigation.
Accessibility shouldn’t depend on a widget.
It should live in the code.

ADA Title III, digital accessibility isn’t optional.
Most “AI accessibility” tools inject scripts that rewrite the DOM—simulating compliance instead of fixing it.
Auditvia scans in minutes, opens safe PRs, and generates legal-grade audit logs.
Real compliance. No overlays.
A kid with a disability blocked from a school form. A job seeker shut out by a broken ‘Submit’ button. This isn’t rare; it’s every day.
That’s why I’m building @Auditvia: This week we developed Deep Scan V1, WCAG audit logs & safe pull requests.
At @AlterraStudio, we’re designing for trust; building a site for a VC firm entrusted by the U.S. Federal Treasury to deploy SSBCI capital across 3 jurisdictions.
GM & GN — Yesterday I pitched @Auditvia to a panel of seasoned investors, founders & fund managers overseeing $400M+ AUM.
The feedback? “Absolutely incredible pitch and product.”
Excited to keep building something that will impact the lives of millions worldwide. 🤍
@TheRyanHofmann @koen_xyz @HypeTrip@AlterraStudio Big strides on our end.
