Accesit Inclusivo
An initiative that facilitates Internet access and digital inclusion
In Spain, more than one million people face digital accessibility issues when accessing the Internet. This number rises to 16 million when considering difficulties stemming from physical or age-related limitations. The Acctua project is an innovative initiative aimed at facilitating access to web content and services for all users, regardless of their age and abilities.
Acctua offers an accessible and adaptable solution thanks to its intelligent interface, which allows web navigation through various modalities such as keyboard, voice commands, or other alternative mechanisms, ensuring an inclusive experience.
Moreover, the service does not require the installation of additional software or hardware by the user, as it is directly integrated into the visited web pages. The system is compatible with the most popular platforms and browsers, and operates through the cloud, allowing access from any computer. Through different navigation modes, such as sound modulation or switches, Acctua ensures that people with visual and mobility impairments or cognitive limitations can easily access digital content.
