Bring accessibility expertise into your delivery rhythm. Colab helps product, design, engineering and governance teams understand priorities, unblock decisions and build more accessible digital products together.

Support for product, design, engineering and governance teams.
Accessibility specialists help teams make confident decisions.
Prioritised findings with clear recommendations for delivery teams.
Advice grounded in WCAG expectations and real-world usability.
Every accessibility outcome is the result of hundreds of decisions made throughout design, content and development.
When accessibility is only considered at the end of a project, issues are often more expensive to fix and harder to unwind.
CoLab helps teams make informed accessibility decisions while work is still taking shape.
Can we use this component?
Will this pattern work with assistive technology?
What accessibility requirements should be included in this story?
Are we ready to publish an accessibility statement?
How do we prioritise accessibility across multiple teams?
Accessibility questions emerge throughout delivery. CoLab helps teams navigate them with practical guidance before decisions become expensive to change.
Establish expectations early.
Before work begins, teams need clarity around goals, requirements and risk.
Shape decisions before they become code.
Design is often where accessibility outcomes are determined, while ideas are still flexible and inexpensive to change.
Support teams as accessibility questions emerge.
Real-world implementation always introduces decisions that need careful judgement.
Communicate progress with confidence.
Accessibility continues after release, through communication, governance and ongoing improvement.
The strongest accessibility outcomes rarely come from finding issues at the end of delivery. They come from helping teams make better decisions throughout planning, design and implementation.

Verify turns accessibility testing into clear, prioritised action — so your team can focus on the issues that matter and move forward with confidence.
CoLab embeds accessibility expertise inside your design and delivery process. Instead of finding problems after launch, your team gets expert input during planning, design and development, when decisions are still easy and inexpensive to change.
Teams building or redesigning a website or app, and organisations that want to build lasting internal accessibility capability. It suits in-house teams, and it works alongside your existing designers and developers rather than replacing them.
An audit tells you where a finished website or app stands. CoLab prevents the issues from being built in the first place. Most organisations use both: CoLab during the build, Verify to confirm the result.
It is scoped to how your team works: design reviews, developer guidance, accessibility input in planning, and answers when questions come up mid-build. The scope is agreed up front so you know exactly what support you are getting.
The opposite, over the life of a build. Accessibility issues found in design cost a fraction of issues found in production, and rework is the real schedule killer. CoLab fits accessibility decisions into your existing rhythm rather than adding a separate process.
