Accessibility
A compliance tool that everyone on your team can use.
Mortevo Audit is built to WCAG 2.2 AA as a floor. This page describes what we've done, what's in progress, and how to tell us when we've missed something.
Our standard
Accessibility is treated as a product requirement, not a retrofit. Every screen ships against a Mortevo Product Constitution that mandates WCAG 2.2 AA compliance, AAA contrast where practical, and colour-plus-icon-plus-text status indicators — never colour alone.
What we do
- Keyboard-first. Every interactive element is reachable and operable by keyboard. Focus is always visible via a persistent
:focus-visiblering. - Semantic HTML. Headings, landmarks, lists and tables are structured for assistive technologies. Icons that convey information are paired with visible text.
- Reduced motion. Animations respect
prefers-reduced-motion. Motion is limited to 150–250ms fades and slides. - Readable by default. Body text is 17px with a 1.6 line-height. The primary typeface is Open Sans, with Montserrat for headings, chosen for clear character shapes at UI sizes.
- Contrast. Text meets AA at minimum. Status colours are tested against light and dark surfaces.
- Plain English. Errors explain the fix. Enum values from the database are humanised before they appear in the UI.
Where we're still working
- Screen-reader announcements on long-running server actions.
- Complete ARIA labelling on the regulatory graph explorer.
- High-contrast theme for users who prefer stronger separation.
Report a barrier
If any part of Mortevo Audit is inaccessible to you, email support@mortivoaudit.co.uk with a short description of what you were trying to do and the assistive technology you use. We aim to acknowledge within one working day and to include a remediation ETA in that acknowledgement.
Formal review
A full third-party accessibility audit is planned before General Availability. The report will be published on this page with any findings and their remediation status.
