TUCSON,
Ariz., Sept. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/
-- AudioEye, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEYE), the
industry-leading enterprise SaaS accessibility company, today
announced it has won the award for Best Accessibility Innovation
in a SaaS Product in the international SaaS Awards
program. Now celebrating its 8th year, The SaaS Awards
continues to recognize and honor SaaS innovations from all corners
of the world, including past winners such as IBM, SAP and
Evernote.
"It's an honor to be named an innovator in digital
accessibility," said David Moradi,
CEO of AudioEye. "We've long recognized that the accessibility gap
is too large to be solved with legacy solutions alone — and we're
thrilled the judges cited our investment in AI as a potentially
transformative approach to creating a more inclusive and accessible
web."
This award recognizes AudioEye's comprehensive approach to
digital accessibility, pairing powerful, AI-based automation with a
team of certified accessibility experts. In the last year, AudioEye
has debuted several enterprise-grade accessibility solutions,
including:
- An Accessibility Maturity Management (AMM) program that
helps organizations assess their current level of accessibility and
define the right investments to make measurable progress toward
more accessible user experiences and organizational alignment.
- An Accessibility Health Advisor (AHA) that enables
organizations to track what steps they need to take to be compliant
with accessibility laws, like the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA), and notifies the organization of any new accessibility
guidelines they need to adopt.
- Continued investment in the use of generative AI and Large
Language Models (LLM) to find and fix complex accessibility issues
that typically require time-consuming human analysis.
"AudioEye's technology, which not only identifies accessibility
issues but also takes proactive steps to automate fixes, sets a new
standard for inclusivity in the digital world," said Monambigha
Mohanasundaram, Lead Judge at The SaaS Awards. "Their investment in
cutting-edge AI and collaboration with the disability community
exemplifies a transformative approach to digital
accessibility."
While many organizations are investing more time and money into
the online customer experience, digital accessibility efforts
continue to lag. Just 3% of the world's top one million websites
are accessible to people with disabilities. These limitations can
prevent them from accomplishing essential tasks online, such as
making purchases, managing their finances, or reading the news.
Recently, AudioEye published its first Digital Accessibility
Index, which combined automated scans of nearly 40,000 enterprise
websites with expert audits from members of the disability
community to identify the web's most common accessibility issues.
Of the 2 million pages scanned, every single page had at least one
accessibility error — and the average page had 37 elements
(such as images, links, or headers) that failed one of the success
criteria of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
(WCAG).
AudioEye will continue partnering with customers and the
disability community to ensure its solutions meet the needs of
both, through industry-leading capabilities that leverage the best
of technology and human expertise. To learn more, visit
