Definition

AudioEye is an accessibility tool included with every Hibu One Smart Site. It helps websites move toward ADA and WCAG 2.2 compliance through automated technology and expert support.

Hibu One Smart Site Rules

The AudioEye widget is automatically included with every new website.
The AudioEye “Blue Man” icon is visible in the bottom-left corner of both desktop and mobile sites.
On mobile, the icon becomes visible only after the site is live.
The icon’s position, size, and color cannot be altered.
AudioEye may be removed at the client’s request. However, it is recommended that the purpose and benefits be explained before removal.
Removal requires a Remedyforce ticket.

Script for Explaining AudioEye Before Removal

"The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires certain businesses to make accommodations for people with disabilities. The app that we have included on your website helps you to provide an ADA-compliant website to your customers. This will not only help protect you against lawsuits and fines, it will also provide accommodations for your customers with disabilities who may visit your site."

Why Accessibility Matters

Over 1.3 billion people worldwide (16% of the population) live with a disability. This number is expected to reach 2 billion by 2030.
Website accessibility lawsuits are increasing, with over 4,000 lawsuits filed in 2022 and 4,280 in 2024.
Sites that are not accessible risk lost business opportunities and potential legal action.
