AlleyWatch caught up with Michael Bervell, Founder of TestParty, an AI platform that automates accessibility testing, remediation, training, and monitoring. In the article, Michael discussed the company's strategic plans, recent funding round, and more. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), passed in the early 1990s, did not include web accessibility standards. However, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1, updated in 2023, provide a widely accepted framework to ensure websites are inclusive for individuals with disabilities. Despite this, over 96% of the homepages of the million most trafficked websites are not compliant with these standards. TestParty aims to change this by enabling developers to create web experiences accessible to individuals with physical and situational disabilities, ensuring equal access to functionality and information. And, guess what? They recently raised $4M to make building accessible websites seamless with AI! 🎉 This financing was co-led by Harlem Capital and the Urban Innovation Fund, with participation from K. Ventures, Soma Capital, The MBA Fund, Bain Capital Ventures, and us (Gaingels!). Follow Michael Bervell, Jason Tan, and TestParty to stay updated on their mission to empower developers in creating a more accessible internet. #inclusion #Accessibility #AIInnovation #TechForGood #InclusiveDesign #StartupFunding https://lnkd.in/eARS6t-V
