What you get
Accessibility and Compliance Assurance
Every build is checked by senior accessibility experts—against WCAG 2.2 AA, Section 508, and AODA if needed. We audit, remediate, document every step, and equip you for compliance audits.
Integrated Fundraising Tools
Donation forms, registrations, and donor management are planned from the start—integrated, tested, and stable. No bolted-on plugins, no risk to your fundraising.
Senior-Only Project Delivery
Your project team includes only senior talent: strategist, designer, accessibility lead, and engineer. No juniors, no outsourcing, and visible accountability at every milestone.
Accessibility-First Content Migration
We migrate all your content—including hundreds of PDFs—and remediate for accessibility standards. Example: For George Brown College, we closed 412 accessibility issues and reached WCAG 2.2 AA/AODA compliance.
How it works
- 1
Mission & Audience Discovery
We run a focused workshop to map your mission, real audiences, and organizational goals—aligning on what success looks like before a single screen is designed.
- 2
Accessible Information Architecture
We plan navigation and user flows for donors, volunteers, and staff—ensuring everyone can quickly find what they need and complete key actions, fully accessible by default.
- 3
Senior-Led Custom Build
All code and design is executed in-house by engineers with 10+ years of experience. No junior handoffs, no low-cost outsourcing, full accountability.
- 4
Content, Compliance, and Training
We remediate all content for accessibility, deliver compliance reporting, and train your team so you maintain standards and control after launch.
