Create digital products that exclude no one. Digital accessibility

Person on the street with a white cane.

Make your website or app accessible to a much wider audience.

For more than 3 million people in the Netherlands, digital accessibility makes the difference between being able to participate independently or being excluded. Think of people with visual impairments. Or people who struggle to use a mouse because of rheumatism. Or those who have difficulty with language. We’ll help you improve accessibility and make it a structural part of your product.

  • Make your product accessible to more people
    You’ll expand your reach and ensure that more people can use your service independently. 
  • Resolve bottlenecks, even beyond the WCAG guidelines
    Don’t just comply with guidelines; ensure your product works well in practice. 
  • Make your organisation more future-proof
    Work towards a more accessible product and a team that knows how to maintain it.

This is how we help you move forward

Digital accessibility is a key pillar of all our design work. We incorporate it into every project. If you would like to specifically address accessibility, we can assist you in various ways:

  1. Accessibility Scan

    Want to know where you stand in terms of digital accessibility? We scan your site or app against the  WCAG guidelines – the international standard for digital accessibility. We make concrete recommendations that you can implement immediately.

  2. In-context research

    If you have the accessibility basics in order and are already following the WCAG guidelines reasonably well, you can discover context-specific accessibility issues through research in the lab. After all, you can perfectly comply with all WCAG guidelines and still provide an inaccessible service. We conduct UX tests, focus groups, and in-context research – so that you can make your product work even better for people with disabilities.

  3. Designers who are experts in accessibility

    Are you going to work on a new app or site? Then it is smart to take accessibility into account right from the start – that is much easier than fixing things afterwards. Our designers incorporate accessibility from the beginning of every project they work on.

  4. Training

    We can train your designers, front-end developers, copywriters, and product owners in digital accessibility. We do this with theory, but especially with on-the-job coaching. We ensure the right culture, skills, and mindset, so that everything you create in the future is accessible.

Why is digital accessibility important?

There are various reasons, but we’ll mention three. 1. It ensures that as many people as possible have equal access to information and features. 2. You increase your reach. In the Netherlands alone, there are around 4.5 million people with a disability or chronic illness. 3. Karma. Anyone can find themselves living with a disability. Users of your website or app who have no disability today may experience one tomorrow. Sometimes this is temporary, sometimes it isn’t. Ultimately, old age brings physical limitations for almost everyone.

What is WCAG? And is it compulsory?

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are international guidelines drawn up to make digital content accessible. The criteria (and success criteria) that designers and developers can take into account when creating websites and apps are described in detail. The WCAG guidelines set the standard for creating inclusive online experiences.

The European Accessibility Act (EEA) came into force in June 2025. It requires many organisations to ensure digital accessibility.
