At Zenyth, we know that true digital inclusivity goes beyond basic compliance. While usability focuses on how efficiently users interact with a platform, accessibility ensures that people with disabilities can use it effectively. Accessibility is a critical component of usability—without it, a site isn’t fully usable. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) provide a baseline for accessibility, but meeting these standards is just the beginning. To achieve genuine inclusivity, accessibility must be integrated from the start, not treated as an afterthought. At Zenyth, we help organizations move beyond mere compliance to create truly inclusive digital experiences. Learn more about the difference between usability and accessibility and how to make your digital platform accessible to everyone.
