Company Overview

We’re on a mission to make the web more accessible to people with disabilities and neurodiversities. Our AI-powered platform helps eCommerce businesses comply with global accessibility standards (ADA, EAA, WCAG), increase conversions, and build more inclusive brands. We’ve launched on the Shopify App Store and are building a modern, scalable SaaS platform, with plans to expand across other ecommerce and CMS ecosystems. We’re a small, recently launched team with high ambition and a strong focus on building high-quality, real-world software that solves meaningful problems. EnableAll is a start-up subsidiary of CareTech (part-owned by private equity firm Three Hills Capital).
