Accessibility

Last updated: June 2026

Our Commitment

Graider is committed to improving digital accessibility for all users. We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA as our design and testing target for graider.live and the Graider application.

Accessibility Standard

Graider targets WCAG 2.1 AA conformance. This is an accessibility goal and working standard, not a claim that every page and application workflow has completed a formal third-party accessibility certification.

What We Support

Keyboard Navigation

The Graider marketing site is designed to support keyboard navigation for links, buttons, forms, and menus. The homepage includes visible focus indicators on interactive elements. We continue to review application workflows for complete keyboard support as features evolve.

Reduced Motion

Graider respects the prefers-reduced-motion operating system setting. When reduced motion is enabled:

  • CSS animations and transitions are suppressed site-wide via a universal media query reset.
  • The homepage hero film scrub is replaced by a single static frame; the canvas does not animate.
  • The 3D logo sway in the loading screen stops immediately.
  • Smooth scrolling (Lenis) is disabled; native browser scroll behavior is used instead.
  • All per-word and reveal animations are shown instantly with no motion.

Semantic Structure

Pages use semantic HTML for navigation, primary content, footer content, headings, links, and buttons. We aim to keep heading order logical and page structure predictable for assistive technologies.

Text Alternatives for Decorative Media

The hero film, canvas, vignette overlay, and scrim gradient on the homepage are purely decorative. They carry aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip them and announce only the meaningful text content. The 3D logo in the loading screen is also marked decorative; the loading status text is announced via a live region (role="status" aria-live="polite").

Color Contrast

The homepage and static pages are designed with high-contrast text, restrained muted colors, and visible interactive states. We avoid relying on color alone to communicate important information, and we continue to check contrast as the design changes.

Known Limitations

Formal Audit Status

Graider has not yet completed a public third-party WCAG audit. Until that audit is complete, this page should be read as our current accessibility statement and remediation commitment rather than a certification claim.

Hero Animation

The homepage hero section features a full-screen decorative film that scrubs as the user scrolls. This animation is not essential to any content or functionality; all of the text it accompanies (the teaching cycle beats: Generate, Grade, Analyze) is reproduced as visible, accessible text in the sections that follow. Under prefers-reduced-motion, the film is replaced with a static first frame.

Application Workflows

The Graider application changes more frequently than the public website. We review new workflows for keyboard access, focus handling, labels, and readable contrast, and we prioritize fixes for any barriers reported by users.

Social Links

The footer links to Graider on X, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube are icon-only links. Each one carries a descriptive accessible name (for example, Graider on Instagram) via an aria-label, so screen reader users can identify its destination, while the decorative brand icons themselves are hidden from assistive technology with aria-hidden.

Contact Us

If you encounter an accessibility barrier on any part of graider.live or app.graider.live, we want to hear about it. Please email us at:

admin@graider.live

Include a description of the barrier, the URL where you encountered it, and the assistive technology you are using. We aim to respond within five business days.
