Halo Lab’s accessibility work starts with a structured WCAG 2.2 audit — identifying failures, severity levels, and the user groups affected before any redesign begins.
We redesign components, flows, and colour systems for compliance, and deliver a report your team can present to legal, engineering, and stakeholders.
3 main challenges holding back your growth

Accessibility retrofitted too late
Accessibility fixed post-launch — expensive, incomplete, legally exposed.

No WCAG baseline established
No agreed compliance level — team builds to no standard and ships failures.

Audit without remediation
Issues logged but not fixed — audit sits in a doc, not the design.
“All projects in which we’ve involved Halo Lab have been great successes, but their leadership on our brand refresh is worth highlighting.”
“We’ve had feedback from users, investors, and employees, and everyone has said that Halo Lab did a fantastic job with the branding.”
“We’re proud of their branding services. They not only do what we tell them but also make suggestions to help us improve our offerings.”

FAQ
Why invest in branding services?
Why invest in branding services?
What does accessibility design include?
A WCAG 2.2 audit, colour contrast corrections, focus management design, component redesign for keyboard and screen reader compliance, ARIA specification, an accessible design system update, and a compliance report for legal and stakeholder review.
Which WCAG standard do you design to?
We design to WCAG 2.2 at Level AA as standard. Level AAA compliance is available for components and flows where required by regulation or contract.
What is a WCAG audit?
A structured review of your product against every applicable WCAG 2.2 criterion — documenting each failure with its criterion reference, severity level, and affected user group before remediation begins.
How long does an accessibility project take?
Most accessibility engagements take 3 to 6 weeks from audit to updated designs, depending on the scope of failures identified and the number of components requiring redesign.
Do you redesign the whole product?
We start with the audit to scope what needs changing. Remediation focuses on failing components, flows, and colour systems — not a full redesign unless the product requires it.
Do you test with screen readers?
Yes. We test with VoiceOver, NVDA, and JAWS to validate screen reader behaviour — covering focus order, ARIA labels, landmark regions, and dynamic content announcements.
Can you update our existing design system?
Yes. Updated component specs and accessible design tokens are integrated into your existing design system — so accessibility holds across future releases, not just the current sprint.
Do you provide legal documentation?
Yes. Every engagement includes a compliance report structured for legal, procurement, and stakeholder communication — documenting audit findings, remediation actions, and compliance status.
Do you offer ongoing accessibility support?
Yes. Ongoing accessibility retainers are available — covering new component reviews, design system updates, and compliance monitoring as the product adds features and surfaces.
