Building Inclusive Digital Experiences.
How We Approach Accessibility
At Moser, accessibility is about creating inclusive digital experiences that comply with ADA, Section 508, and WCAG 2.2 standards. We offer various services, including accessibility audits and automated and manual testing, to ensure your products meet all users’ needs and adhere to legal requirements and best practices.
Our process begins with a detailed accessibility audit to identify areas for improvement. From there, we utilize automated tools to quickly detect issues like color contrast, missing alt text, and improper use of headings. We then conduct thorough manual testing, simulating real-world scenarios with assistive technologies such as screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, and voice input systems. This ensures compliance with ADA’s broader mandates for accessibility across both digital and physical environments.
Whether you want to verify compliance with ADA and Section 508 or align with WCAG standards to enhance usability, our team works with you to develop a clear, actionable plan. By integrating accessibility into your digital products, we help you deliver experiences that are compliant, inclusive, and functional, meeting the diverse needs of your audience.
At Moser UX, accessibility isn’t just a box to check. It’s a core component of delivering exceptional user experiences that align with modern standards and foster inclusivity.
How can Accessibility Audits help
Reduce Legal Risks
Accessibility compliance isn’t just a best practice; it’s a legal requirement for most public-facing websites. Failing to meet Section 508 or WCAG standards can expose organizations to lawsuits, especially with the increasing reliance on AI solutions that often leave gaps in compliance. At Moser, we take a comprehensive approach, combining automated tools with rigorous manual testing to ensure your website meets all necessary criteria. This dual approach minimizes risk, giving you confidence in your site’s accessibility and legal compliance.
Inclusive Design by Default
True accessibility is about creating digital experiences that everyone uses, regardless of ability. Accessibility audits help identify barriers that prevent users with disabilities from fully engaging with your website or application. By addressing these issues, we ensure your digital products meet WCAG 2.2 standards, such as providing proper screen reader support, keyboard navigation, and clear visual contrast. At Moser, we believe inclusivity isn’t just about compliance; it’s about empowering all users to access and benefit from your services.
Expanded Reach and Engagement
Accessible designs go beyond compliance. They welcome users of all abilities, broadening your audience and boosting engagement. UX ensures these designs are intuitive and functional, avoiding barriers that could alienate users or lead to legal scrutiny.

Section 508 is a U.S. federal law requiring all electronic and information technology (EIT) used by federal agencies to be accessible to people with disabilities. It sets baseline accessibility standards and applies primarily to government entities and their contractors.
ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) is a broader civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in public and private spaces. Title III of the ADA has been interpreted to apply to digital accessibility, making it relevant for businesses and organizations providing goods or services online.
