How Our IR ADA Compliance Process Works


Transform your investor relations digital accessibility in four strategic phases designed to minimize disruption while maximizing protection.


Step 1: Comprehensive IR Website Audit - Evaluate your investor relations website, SEC filings repository, earnings materials, and all investor-facing online content using automated tools plus manual testing with screen readers and keyboard navigation.


Step 2: Document Accessibility Remediation - Tag and optimize PDFs of annual reports, 10-Ks, 10-Qs, proxy statements, and press releases for accessibility standards compliance. Our manual remediation ensures blind users can navigate complex financial documents seamlessly.


Step 3: Website Code and Design Updates - Implement WCAG standards across your IR website, including proper alt text for charts and graphs, color contrast improvements, and form accessibility—all while preserving your brand’s design elements.


Step 4: Ongoing Compliance Monitoring - Establish protocols for maintaining compliance with new earnings releases, SEC filings, and investor communications. Our technology continuously scans your accessible website to ensure it remains accessible as content updates.
