Evinced is on a mission to make as many web properties accessible as possible, and to do that means getting that work done as early as possible — which means integrating with the development process from the beginning. The company is continuing this “shift left” mentality with $38 million in new funding that it plans to put to work making it elementary to design for accessibility.

“For years, the accessibility business has been what you might call a consulting business,” said founder and CEO Navin Thadani. “You hire somebody, they review your products once a year, produce a huge report, and then perhaps work with your engineers as they make their way through an undifferentiated bug list with thousands and thousands of issues.”
