This is Eye-Able’s installable widget. Consisting of over 25 accessibility features, the Eye-Able® assistant software enables people with accessibility needs to freely adapt all content to their preferences. The software can be integrated into any website without any problems to ensure their visitors are all included in access to content.

The software can be customized to fit your brand colors.

Design

Eye-Able makes a variety of design combinations available to its users as options for background and font colors. Whatever their preferences, users can select the optimal contrast from a pre-selection of settings or from a selection of the color spectrum. Selections made are saved to the user’s profile.

Here’s a breakdown of Eye-Able’s design features

• High contrast presets
• The contrasts of the website are freely adjustable
• The contrast checker displays the set contrast

Screen Reader

Eye-Able’s intuitive read-aloud function enables users with vision impairment to easily have text content read aloud. Abled people can also benefit from this function. You can decide which content you want read aloud, or listen to the entire page content. With Eye-Able’s screen reader, people with vision impairment can navigate websites without a mouse.

Features:

• Intuitive control center
• Alt attributes are read out
• Unnecessary content is skipped
• Multilingualism easily possible

Keyboard Navigation

Eye-Able optimizes background elements for keyboard navigation. For people with motor impairments and others with temporary impairments (e.g., fracture of one arm) this functionality is super helpful as it enables them to use entire websites without the mouse. Just like the screen reader, you can choose which content you want to navigate through using the keyboard, such as headings and links.

Features:

• Navigation websites without a mouse
• Various jump links are available
• Integrative interaction with Eye-Able’s screen reader

Eye-able Pricing

Eye-able used to have pricing plans on their website. However, to get a quote now, you have to schedule a demo or speak with a customer care representative.

Eye-able Platform and Support

The options for support are decent. Eye-Able provides users with a phone number, an email address, and a contact form. The platform has no live chat, but with its other features, I think it has a fair support system. There are FAQs on the website so users who don’t have an account yet can gather basic information without contacting Eye-Able.
