STAFFORD, Va., Oct. 16, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Level Access, a global provider of digital accessibility solutions, has been named a Leader in the inaugural Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Accessibility Platforms. The company was also positioned highest in the Ability to Execute among all vendors evaluated. This recognition underscores Level Access’s commitment to helping organizations ensure their digital experiences are accessible to people with disabilities.
Founded 25 years ago, Level Access has been a trusted partner to some of the world’s most recognizable brands.
The problem of digital accessibility is becoming more pressing. WebAIM's annual analysis of the top one million home pages found that 95.9% of them failed to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2 in 2026, up from 94.8% the previous year, marking the end of six consecutive years of improvement. This trend highlights the growing need for robust digital accessibility solutions.
Level Access’s research published this month revealed that among professionals using AI in the software development life cycle (SDLC), 99% say it sped up at least one stage of building software, while only 30% say it sped up testing. This disparity underscores the need for support to embed accessibility accountability across existing AI-enabled workflows.
The recognition from Gartner, a respected research and advisory firm, reflects the growing importance of digital accessibility as a business imperative. Enterprises increasingly require evidence of accessibility before they purchase, and laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the European Accessibility Act (EAA) have increased legal expectations and enforcement scrutiny. People with disabilities in the U.S. represent roughly $675 billion in annual spending power, and organizations that fail to build accessible digital experiences risk missing out on this significant market.
Level Access’s platform brings expert guidance directly into the tools organizations already use to build, embedding accessibility guidance and providing evidence to demonstrate the accessibility of what ships.
This recognition from Gartner highlights Level Access’s leadership in the digital accessibility space and its commitment to helping organizations meet the growing demand for accessible digital experiences.
