Technology for the Blind
Bridging the Blind and Technology
We serve as the bridge between people with blindness and low vision and the technology that can empower them. Listening to their voices, understanding their needs, and ensuring those needs are clearly communicated to developers and innovators.
Privacy-First Solutions
While others may choose when to interact with AI, people who are blind or have low vision rely on assistive technology daily. We advocate for privacy-first solutions so that accessibility never comes at the expense of dignity. Privacy is a right, not a privilege.
Partner with innovators
We collaborate with engineers and technology companies to build solutions that truly serve the blind and low-vision community. Helping teams understand real needs, teaching individuals how to use new tools with confidence, and ensuring feedback flows back to product creators.

I am visually impaired. I would like to see things that are ready for use by the blind and visually impaired, cost less so that we can afford to get trained to use the products
