We're building Taxottic so everyone can use it.

Taxes are stressful enough; using a tax product should not add a second barrier. Taxottic is designed to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.2, Level AA, and we treat accessibility as a release gate, not a backlog item.

We are not yet fully conformant. The honest gaps are listed below.

• Keyboard-only navigation. Every primary flow (sign in, add a company, log an expense, view the forecast, sign out) is operable without a mouse, with visible focus indicators.
• Screen-reader-friendly structure. Landmarks (header, main, nav), heading hierarchy without skipped levels, descriptive button labels, and aria-live="polite" announcements for status changes.
• Resizable text. Pinch-zoom and browser zoom are not capped — you can zoom up to 500% without losing content or function (WCAG 1.4.4). The previous viewport setting that capped zoom at 5× has been removed following the May 2026 audit.
• Colour contrast. Body text on cream and forest-green backgrounds meets AA contrast (4.5:1 for body, 3:1 for large text). The gold accent is decorative only — never relied on to convey state.
• Forms. Visible labels paired with inputs, descriptive error messages bound by aria-describedby, and required fields announced — not just shown with a red asterisk.
• Time-out warnings.Long-running flows that auto-save show a status pill so screen-reader users aren't surprised by silent state changes.
• Passkey sign-in. Biometric / device-PIN auth as an alternative to typing a password.
• No motion ambushes. Animations are short and decorative; users with prefers-reduced-motion see static alternatives where motion would otherwise convey meaning.

We'd rather name what isn't there yet than claim a standard we haven't met:

• The forecast tile set has been visually re-tuned this quarter; a second screen-reader pass is scheduled for early Q3 2026.
• Bella's streaming chat output does not yet expose completed messages as discrete announcements. We're planning to switch to a per-message aria-live region.
• PDF reports produced by the forecast are machine-readable but the tagged-PDF structure has not been audited end-to-end. Until that work lands, accessible report exports are available on request to access@taxottic.com.
• The mobile native apps (iOS / Android) are behind the web app on screen-reader testing. We will not promote the mobile apps to general availability until the iOS VoiceOver and Android TalkBack pass meets the same bar as the web.

• WCAG 2.2, Level AA — the primary target.
• Section 508 — for U.S. federal-procurement compatibility (informational).
• EN 301 549 — for EU public-sector procurement (informational).

We do not yet publish an ACR / VPAT; if you need one for procurement, write to access@taxottic.com and we'll prepare one against your timeline.

If something on Taxottic isn't usable for you, please email access@taxottic.com and tell us:

• The page or feature.
• The device, browser, and assistive technology you use.
• What you expected, and what happened instead.

We acknowledge accessibility reports within two business days and aim to ship a fix within 30 days for blocking issues. While a barrier exists, we will offer an alternative path to complete the task — by email, phone, or with a member of the team on a call.
