Significantly enhanced partnership to meet new
ADA Title II requirements with AI-powered platform
TUCSON,
Ariz., Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- AudioEye, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEYE) ("AudioEye" or
the "Company"), the industry-leading digital accessibility company,
and CivicPlus, a leader in public sector SaaS technology
solutions, today announced a significantly expanded partnership
which will include enhanced go-to-market efforts that will provide
industry-leading accessibility solutions to the local government
market. The expanded partnership will also leverage AudioEye's AI
automation to provide a clear path for municipalities and cities
toward AudioEye's comprehensive managed product, offering the
highest level of legal protection in the industry for current and
prospective customers.
This follows the Justice Department's new rule under Title
II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), establishing
specific requirements for web and mobile app accessibility among
state and local government entities. These entities must reach
compliance within the next two or three years depending on
municipality size.
"With the Justice Department's new rule, we are witnessing a
significant milestone in the evolution of digital accessibility for
all citizens," said AudioEye Chief Executive Officer David Moradi. "CivicPlus has developed a
cutting-edge platform servicing over 10,000 government customers –
the most of anyone in the industry. By adding AudioEye's automated
monitoring and testing to the CivicPlus platform, we will
significantly enhance the accessibility of government websites and
systems."
When AudioEye is integrated with CivicPlus, customers have
access to a comprehensive suite of digital accessibility services,
including 24/7 accessibility monitoring, automated accessibility
fixes, and expert testing. The platform can be customized to fit
any municipality's accessibility needs as they work to meet the new
Title II requirements.
"Working with AudioEye for the past seven years has helped us to
deliver an efficient and cost-effective solution for our customers
as they implement digital accessibility on their websites," said
CivicPlus Chief Executive Officer Brian
Rempe. "As the laws and regulations related to accessibility
compliance evolve, pairing AudioEye's industry-leading
accessibility platform with CivicPlus' extensive experience with
our Modern Civic Experience Platform technology sets a new standard
in digital accessibility for government entities. We look forward
to continuing our collaboration, helping governments meet the new
ADA requirements, and creating more inclusive opportunities for
civic engagement for all members of the community."
