Building Semantic Vision - AI that reads DeFi interfaces for blind users. Zero protocol changes needed. | Founder @SemanticVision

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

Hey @AnthropicAI, why does paying for Claude Pro look like a discriminatory joke? I am totally blind. Your provider @hCaptcha forces a screen reader user to solve 3D puzzles or pass a broken OAuth flow that crashes with raw JSON errors! Unacceptable UX. Fix your A11y!

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

We solved it. Our team (shoutout to our Vision Core devs) implemented a new layer of semantic logic. The system now understands: if a button displays a state, it requires an Intent Label. We are not just labeling; we are interpreting purpose in DeFi.

We are building Semantic Vision to give sight to blind DeFi users. This week, during live tests on Uniswap, we uncovered a critical "semantic blind spot". The core AI couldn't distinguish NOUN-states from VERB-actions on the Network & Token Selectors. It saw text, but not intent.

@miic_ug @senses_hub @GDIHub @Makerere @MakCoCIS @mofpedU @allanLule_ Hey @GDIHub! I’m a blind founder building Semantic Vision (AI for DeFi accessibility). I tried to reach your team via the website form and email, but both seem to be down today. Is there an alternative way to share my pitch deck with you?

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

The 2019 precedent showed how high the stakes are for digital products.
While DeFi hasn't faced a collective accessibility wave yet, the landscape is changing.
The EAA 2025 and new regulations are coming. Semantic Vision is already here to bridge the gap.

@Accessio_AI Exactly — static labeling breaks the moment a modal opens or a transaction state changes. That's why we use MutationObserver to catch every DOM update in real time. DeFi interfaces are living documents, not static pages.

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

How Semantic Vision works:
① Scan page for unlabeled buttons
② AI analyzes context
③ ARIA labels injected into live DOM
④ NVDA announces: "Supply ETH button"
No reload. No protocol changes. Under 2 seconds.
Tested on Aave v3 👇

@RaffaySajjad @Layton_Gott True. For me, 'trying everything' meant building a custom AI layer when the industry said accessibility was 'too hard' to automate. That balance between vision and grit is where the real progress happens.

I don’t want to be "inclusive."
I want to be exclusive.
"Inclusive" is waiting for someone to open the door.
"Exclusive" is building your own key — and owning the lock.
I’m blind. I didn’t wait for DeFi to be accessible.
I built the tool myself.

Thanks Raffay — "retrofittable layer" is exactly the right framing. Zero changes on the protocol side, full accessibility on the user side. That's the only model that actually scales across hundreds of protocols.

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

@vkhosla Spot on, Vinod. AI isn't just automating old industries; it’s rebuilding the economic entry points. As a blind founder building an AI layer for DeFi, I see how legacy UX creates 'predictable decay' by excluding millions. AI is the only way to build truly accessible finance.

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

The EU Accessibility Act deadline passed in June 2025.
Most DeFi protocols still aren't compliant.
Semantic Vision fixes this — no protocol changes needed.
@AaveAave — first tested on your protocol. 14/14 buttons labeled.

Private. Local. Fast. No more "silent" interfaces.

I can't solve what I can't see.
I’m done waiting for tech giants to notice "invisible" users. I decided to build the key myself.
Semantic Vision is coming.

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

I'm bringing the Word back to the void.
My project, Semantic Vision, is a browser extension that doesn't ask developers for permission. It uses AI to analyze interfaces on the fly and inject meaningful labels directly into the UI..

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

It’s ironic. An industry claiming to build "freedom and decentralization" is actually building digital prisons.
Take those visual CAPTCHAs on major exchanges. For them, it’s bot protection. For me, it’s a locked door I was never given a key for.

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

But when I try to access a modern crypto service, I hit an invisible wall: "unlabelled button", "link".
To me, that sounds like: "You’re not welcome here".

[Vladyslav Bilenko || Semantic Vision @VB_SemanticV]

"In the beginning was the Word." But in today’s Web3, there is only silence.
I lost my sight at 14. Since then, my world has been built on the words my screen reader speaks.
