TestParty on LinkedIn: TestParty raises $4M to help automate the coding for accessible websites |…
Summary
Today were excited to announce our $4m fundraise co-led by Harlem Capital and the Urban Innovation Fund \U0001f389 We were also awarded a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant by the National Science Foundation (NSF). Over 96% of the worlds top million website homepages are not compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. Meaning, people who require screen readers or other assistive devices cannot fully use and experience the vast majority of the worlds websites. Born out of lived experience from our co-founders, TestPartys platform automates accessibility testing, remediation, training, and monitoring, addressing a problem that, despite a federal mandate, has been only partially automated by existing solutions. Our partners in this round see and invested in this vision of the future, including K. Ventures, Soma Capital, Gaingels, The MBA Fund, and Bain Capital Ventures (scout fund).
