Our capabilities.
At Livefront, we believe digital products should work for everyone. We start with accessibility, we don't end with it. We prioritize inclusion up front and throughout the entire design and engineering process instead of treating it as an afterthought.
Accessibility Audits
With critical review, we deliver detailed evaluations of how well your digital properties meet the needs of people with disabilities while conforming with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Identifying risks and opportunities, we produce the detailed reports required to confidently assess compliance and provide clarity around necessary remediation efforts.
Documentation & Annotation
Elegant design and strategy fall to the wayside if they are not effectively supported through implementation. We work to expertly define and annotate the nuances of each accessibility choice to ensure that features can be built correctly and efficiently the first time around with effective technical documentation and pattern definitions.
Strategy & Design
Immersing ourselves in your space and getting to know your customers, we identify the unique needs of your audience and work to identify how to best support them on their journey with your digital products and experiences. Through accessibility design & validation practices, we go further than just identifying risks and opportunities; we generate the elegant design required to support your customers.
Engineering & Implementation
Executing at the highest level, our team expertly crafts products and features to fulfill the accessibility specification and design vision efficiently, leaving behind well-established patterns and documentation that scale with the product as your business grows.
