Accessibi: The New GILBI Service for a Web Accessible to All

Accessibi: Il Nuovo Servizio di GILBI per un Web Accessibile a Tutti

In the modern digital age, accessibility has become a central issue for the online world. Websites must not only be aesthetically pleasing and functional, but must also be accessible to everyone, including those with physical, sensory, or cognitive disabilities. Web accessibility is not only a question of ethics, but has become a necessity imposed by regulations in several countries, such as the United States with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) , and in Europe with the European Accessibility Act .

In response to this growing need, GILBI has launched Accessibi , a new innovative service dedicated to making websites compliant with the latest accessibility regulations. This service not only ensures legal compliance, but aims to improve the online experience for millions of users who, without the necessary adjustments, may find it difficult to interact with digital content.

Why is Web Accessibility Important?

Web accessibility is about ensuring that people with disabilities have equal access to information and services online. People with visual, motor, hearing, or cognitive disabilities often encounter obstacles that make using a website difficult or impossible. For example, a non-accessible site may not be navigable using a keyboard, may not provide text alternatives for images, or may not be compatible with screen readers, which are essential tools for users who are visually impaired or blind.

Globally, it is estimated that over one billion people live with some form of disability, and this number is increasing due to the aging population. Ignoring this large segment of the population can not only mean the loss of a huge business opportunity, but can also pose significant legal risks, especially in countries like the US where non-compliance with ADA laws can lead to lawsuits and hefty fines.

The Standards That Drive Web Accessibility

Web accessibility regulations vary from country to country, but their enforcement is growing rapidly across the world. In the United States, the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) has been used to regulate website accessibility, establishing that virtual spaces must be accessible as well as physical locations. This has led to numerous lawsuits against companies and organizations with non-compliant websites.

In Europe, the European Accessibility Act , which will come into full force in 2025, requires all companies to ensure that their digital services, including websites, are accessible to EU citizens. This act is a further step towards a more inclusive digital world and introduces significant obligations for businesses that cannot be ignored.

In other countries such as Canada and Australia, similar regulations are emerging, making accessibility a crucial aspect not only for complying with local laws, but also for competing in international markets.

What Accessibi Offers

Accessibi is much more than a simple regulatory compliance service. It is a complete package of customized solutions to make websites accessible to all, improving usability and inclusivity. Here's what it includes:

  1. Accessibility Analysis and Audit
    The first step to make a site accessible is a detailed analysis of the current state. Accessibi experts perform a complete audit of the website, identifying all critical areas that require intervention to comply with current regulations such as the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) and other local or international regulations.

  2. Implementation of Accessibility Tools
    After the audit, Accessibi provides customized solutions to address the identified issues. This may include adding tools such as screen readers, improving keyboard navigation, correcting visual contrasts, and more. These solutions are designed to seamlessly integrate with the site design, without compromising its aesthetics or functionality.

  3. Updates and Constant Maintenance
    Accessibility is not a one-time process. Requirements can evolve over time, and as new content is added to the site, it is important that it is accessible as well. Accessibi offers ongoing maintenance, monitoring the site to ensure it remains compliant with regulations and up to date with industry best practices.

  4. Multinational Solutions
    If your business operates globally, Accessibi is the ideal partner to ensure that your site is compliant not only with local regulations, but also with those of international markets. Whether it is ADA regulations in the United States or the European Accessibility Act in Europe, Accessibi guides you through the legal complexities of each country in which you operate.

  5. Support and Training
    In addition to technical implementation, Accessibi provides ongoing training to internal teams at companies to ensure that accessibility is integrated into every aspect of future web design. This helps create a corporate culture focused on inclusivity and usability, which can improve brand reputation and trust in the long run.
