About A11y Equitas

A11y Equitas = accessibility as equity. A11y Equitas is an open AI model + practical resource built for neurodivergent (ND) communities missed by mainstream accessibility work inside agencies, nonprofits, and schools.

Purpose

For neurodivergent communities under-served by accessibility programs at agencies, nonprofits, and schools. ND needs (ADHD, autism, dyslexia, attention/memory differences, sensory processing) are routinely missed by accessibility audits that focus on screen-reader compatibility and physical-access analogues.

Aim

LLM for AAA
Help teams meet WCAG 2.2 AAA

An open LLM that explains and applies WCAG 2.2 AAA criteria accurately — runnable locally with no cloud dependency.

ND-biased by design
A resource biased toward ND needs

Deliberate ND bias. Helping ND users by default also covers every ADA category — no one is excluded.

Components
Working a11y components + typography

Live, accessible components — accordions, tabs, dropdowns, forms — that copy-paste into Next.js or any HTML project.

Work + school
Tools + docs for ND life

Practical guides for ND people at work or in school — and for colleagues, managers, teachers, and staff who support them.

Schools
Reach ND communities directly

Help schools reach out to ND adults and ND-led groups who lived the gap — not just compliance consultants. See Schools →

Beyond compliance
Legal compliance is a floor, not a goal

Agencies and schools should treat accessibility as a way to help people who need accommodations become more productive — not just as a legal box-ticking exercise.

Open source & local-first

The model is published on HuggingFace and runnable locally via Ollama. No cloud dependency. No data leakage. MIT-licensed with a transparency addendum.
