Accessibility issues don’t have to surprise you — or your users. Continuous AI for Accessibility is an approach to building accessible products by embedding tools, AI, and best practices directly into the development process. In this session, I’ll share how we built an open-source prototype tool and show features like automated accessibility scans and alerts with GitHub Actions, AI-driven fixes using agents, and collaborative pull requests that keep humans in the loop. The result: developers tackle issues seamlessly, accessibility best practices become second nature, and teams are ready to build inclusive products from day one.
