vAssist - Website Accessibility Solutions

About Our Website Accessibility Solutions

At Viking Coders, our vision is to foster a digital world that is truly accessible and inclusive for all through our revolutionary product, vAssist. We are driven by the belief that web accessibility is not just a necessity but a transformative force that empowers individuals with disabilities to fully engage, connect, and shop online. By seamlessly integrating vAssist into the fabric of your store, we aim to break down barriers, champion equal opportunities, and revolutionize the way people of all abilities access and interact with digital content. Through continuous innovation, collaboration, and a relentless commitment to accessibility, we aspire to create a future where everyone can navigate, contribute, and flourish in the digital realm.

Meeting the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) involves more than just relying on a single tool like vAssist. While vAssist can greatly enhance accessibility, it should be used in conjunction with a comprehensive website review conducted by a trained group of web developers and designers. This multidisciplinary approach ensures that all aspects of the website, including design, code structure, content, and user experience, align with WCAG standards. By combining the automated capabilities of vAssist with the expertise and human judgment of our trained web professionals, we can thoroughly evaluate and address accessibility barriers, ensuring our clients’ websites provide an inclusive experience for all users.

WCAG accessibility not only benefits individuals with disabilities, but also fosters a positive user experience and promotes inclusive design principles that benefit all users.
