New inSuit improvements and updates in 2022

As we like to do on a regular basis, we have implemented significant improvements and updates in order to scale up our web accessibility solution and bring it to another level of accessible usability and regulatory compliance.

Constant evolution is essential if we want to improve web accessibility and end user experience every day. This will also ensure compliance with the various new legal regulations and web accessibility guidelines such as the WCAG, for example, which are constantly emerging and undergoing changes.

These improvements and updates have been carried out by our team of web accessibility and usability experts after studying the results of the periodic testing of the inSuit tool. Participating in these tests were people with disabilities from our partner associations that work to bridge the digital gap.

The best way to see how inSuit works is by asking real users of the tool, as they are able to detect, in practice, any browsing needs and improvement opportunities.

A value proposition that distinguishes us from the rest when it comes to offering a web accessibility solution that is adapted to our users’ different needs and preferences. Our main objective is to cover all possible disabilities and to focus on offering complete web accessibility that will ensure total access to digital information for everyone.

Another important aspect in this regard is that all tool updates are made available and applied automatically from the cloud, without the need for web owners or users to carry out any further tasks or adaptations. This also includes notable service improvements, which are adapted to the latest legal changes and requirements.

As part of our commitment to our values and quality standards, we would like to share with our readers our list of inSuit improvements and updates in 2022.

• Optimisation of inSuit architecture
  Our tool now allows for the fastest web navigation around. We have increased its operation speed by dedicating more resources to the services that inSuit offers, thus reducing loading times and improving its performance.
• Improvements in the WCAG 2.1 accessibility rule engine
  This update resolved web accessibility bugs on original web pages without needing to activate the accessible navigation provided by the tool. This enables the automatic application of the accessibility rules to improve the the web page’s code without requiring the activation of inSuit’s navigation aids.
• New activation mode optimised for screen readers
  This option avoids compatibility conflicts that may arise between screen readers and inSuit. This detects and activates the “Optimised for screen readers” navigation mode by default when the user is using a connected screen reader.
• Redesign of our accessibility interfaces, making them more usable
  We have used visual aids to make navigation commands visible and available at all times on the inSuit navigation bar. The interface now shows each available action by way of an icon accompanied by its associated keyboard short-cut or voice command, which are always adapted to the user’s interface.
• New form viewer with zoom and access from all interfaces.
  To ensure that form fields can be easily viewed and completed, this new viewer replicates the form field in the bottom bar of inSuit, associating it with the voice reader, so that the text entered by the user can be heard.

• New accessible viewer for multimedia content
  This new viewer adds accessible playback controls for the video to the inSuit bar, including the option to enlarge the video to full screen for proper viewing.

• New Signacces® Engine
  This is a special and on-demand service that allows users to insert a video thumbnail in sign language for relevant web content.

If you still do not have a tool that will help you fulfil all existing web accessibility regulatory requirements and offer full access to everyone, we’d like to offer you a free, no obligation demo of inSuit so that you can see all that it has to offer.
