1/5 Our ariaInjector isn't just a linter; it's an active remediation engine. It runs in the browser, fixing WCAG 4.1.2 Name, Role, and Value issues in real-time. Here is how it works under the hood.

How do we make any chart accessible, even a raw SVG?

Examples are cool, but the mechanism is fascinating. We built an engine that reads charts like a human does.

The free A11ycore chrome extension should be approved in the next day or so we made a few mistakes in the manifest and submitted that we used two perms that we don't use so hopefully the review will be fast

Just shipped an update to our Dark Mode widget 🌙
Improved DOM scanning means better, more accurate dark mode conversion on every site. Great news for users with light sensitivity who need reduced brightness.

This is included for free in the indev chrome extension and the Business Solution

Just submitted the free chrome extension version of A11yCore for Review, the plugin is the exact widget sell to companies to improve their accessibility, but the chrome extension allows you to surf the entire web with better accessibility

The Widget covers about 83% of WCAG 2.0/2.1/2.2 standards
January 28, 2026 at 5:37 PM
Most accessibility widgets are just CSS band-aids covering 15-30% of WCAG. We built an actual remediation engine that covers 83% by fixing the DOM itself.

Why Most Accessibility Widgets Fail: Overlay vs. Remediation
At A11yCore, we just launched this January with a mission to build accessibility technology that actually works. But first, I need to address a fundamental problem in our industry: most accessibility ...

Screen reader users already have an accessibility widget: their screen reader. The challenge lies not in needing more buttons, but in the fundamental incompatibility of many websites with assistive technology. A presentation-layer overlay cannot resolve these issues.

A11ycore Widget is now a Chrome Plugin; it will be completely free - AI Functionality (it cost money to run) we will likely make those features available at token cost
January 26, 2026 at 12:41 AM
We're developing a browser extension based on a fork of the a11ycore widget. This free and open-source tool will bring enhanced accessibility features directly to your browser. Full details and release timeline coming next week. #a11y

Sometimes people make mistakes with accessibility—and so do we. Accessibility isn't a one-and-done thing; you have to make changes as you go. We just rolled out updates to fix focus indicators and ARIA roles across our navigation components. #a11y #WebAccessibility

Working on two accessibility features: extracting chart data to make it screen reader-friendly and building a glossary system for abbreviations. The chart tool is coming along nicely the glossary still needs work, especially handling acronym collisions like CDN = Canadian vs Content Delivery Network
