#A11ySpaces

Search engines give you raw data; A11ySpaces gives you actionable logic. Instead of reading a 300-page manual, you enter your zip code and building type, and our app filters out everything irrelevant. We don’t just show you “the law”—we show you the specific measurements and design steps for your exact situation, translated into layman’s terms.

Our goal is “Local Logic.” While we start with Federal ADA and International Building Codes (IBC), our database is designed to ingest state and municipal-level amendments. This is why we are raising funds: to build the data-ingestion pipeline that accounts for these localized variations that general search engines often miss.

Yes. We are building a “Pocket Mode” specifically for contractors and inspectors working in “dead zones”—like the basement of a historic building or a new construction site without Wi-Fi. You can save your project plans locally to your device.

No. A11ySpaces is a powerful educational and planning tool designed to bridge the gap in accessibility knowledge. Because laws and physical site conditions change, we always recommend a final walkthrough by a certified professional for high-stakes projects. Our app helps you get 95% of the way there, saving you thousands in consulting fees and avoiding common “rookie” mistakes.

Our database is managed using a “Human-in-the-Loop” model. While we use automation to track code updates, our Accessibility Data Analyst and CPACC-certified founders verify critical logic. Accuracy is our primary feature and our highest priority.

We utilize a Hybrid Automation Model. We use APIs and data feeds to track major changes at the federal and state levels. For the “last mile” of municipal data, our dedicated Data Analyst manages a specialized ingestion pipeline. This allows us to scale efficiently while maintaining the human oversight necessary for high-stakes compliance data.

Small businesses make up the majority of US employers, yet they have the least access to affordable accessibility expertise. By helping them, we unlock thousands of job opportunities for the disability and neurodivergent community that were previously blocked by simple physical or digital barriers.

A11ySpaces provides a holistic 360-degree approach to inclusion. Our platform includes recommendations for the physical environment (workplaces, retail, etc.), operational accommodations (HR policies), and digital accessibility. We provide actionable checklists to ensure that your digital presence and workplace tools are as welcoming and accessible as your physical location.

Yes. By keeping the price point accessible, we aim for volume. There are over 33 million small businesses in the US alone. Our “Bottoms-Up” analysis shows that reaching just 1% of that market creates a multi-million dollar ARR company. High-volume adoption also makes us the “standard” for supplier partnerships and data licensing.

Your funds go directly toward moving the app from a “web beta” to a “proprietary in-house platform.” Specifically, it funds the hiring of our initial dev team and the massive task of codifying thousands of localized building requirements.

We are committed to the mission. If we don’t hit our goals for in-house development immediately, we will utilize a phased rollout, prioritizing the most-requested building types and regions first while continuing to bootstrap through our educational revenue.

Transparency is one of our core values. We provide regular updates via our newsletter, Discord community, and Indiegogo. If we encounter technical hurdles, we will release the platform in phases (starting with Federal ADA) to ensure you have immediate value while we finalize localized features.

Absolutely! Supporters at our highest levels have a direct seat at the table for feature prioritization. All supporters are invited to our Discord community where we actively solicit feedback on which building types and regions to prioritize.

We are always looking for problem solvers with an inclusion mindset. Check our Job Openings page for our current needs. We are a fully remote, outcome-oriented team that values results over hours clocked. Join us!

Join our Discord community, Pixel Place! We need beta testers, feedback from people with lived experience, and advocates to share the app with their local small businesses, HR teams, and construction friends.
