What is Web Accessibility?
Web accessibility refers to the "barrier-free design of web pages." It means that everyone, including the elderly and persons with disabilities, can use information and functions provided on websites without hindrance.
With the revision of the "Act on the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities" (hereinafter referred to as the Disability Discrimination Act), enforced on April 1, Reiwa 6 (2024), all businesses are now legally obligated to provide "reasonable accommodation."
Accompanying this revision, businesses are required to implement "web accessibility" measures that consider persons with disabilities on their websites.

About FairNavi
"FairNavi" is a service that makes websites barrier-free in as little as one minute with just one line of code.
Compared to website modification, "FairNavi" overwhelmingly reduces costs in terms of "time" and "expense." Implementation is completed simply by pasting a single line of code, issued after the contract, into the specified location. It also supports no-code tools like WordPress and STUDIO, making it easy for anyone to set up.
By drastically reducing "quality," "time," and "cost," it accelerates companies' compliance with web accessibility.
