Why accessibility belongs in your event platform
About one in six people worldwide lives with a significant disability, according to the WHO. If your event page, player or chat does not work with assistive technology, those people are left out before the stream even starts.
Accessibility is also becoming a legal requirement. The European Accessibility Act and national accessibility laws mean that many public organisations and companies must offer accessible digital services. Picking an accessible platform is the simplest way to stay on the right side of those rules.
What an accessible event looks like on Enchant
Accessibility is part of the viewer experience itself, so you do not need to build anything extra for each event.
- Viewer pages that meet WCAG requirements on level AA.
- Live subtitles shown with the stream.
- Keyboard access to the player, chat, polls and handouts.
- Recordings for viewers who need to watch at their own pace.
Accessible and on brand at the same time
You can still customise everything from logos and colours to the player and your own domain. Accessibility and a strong brand work together, and Enchant helps you keep both.
