A decade ago, inSuit was born with a clear purpose: to achieve universality on the Internet. What began as a vision of a group of professionals committed to technological accessibility, has now become a leading company that offers solutions and services that enable people with disabilities to easily and efficiently access web pages and applications, and public and private organisations to comply with current accessibility regulations.
From its inception, inSuit’s creators, with experience in R&D projects, recognised an important gap: accessibility innovations were not reaching the market and those who needed them most.
With this issue in mind, they decided to develop what we know today as inSuit Tools™, an easy to implement and affordable digital accessibility solution designed to truly benefit people with disabilities by providing them with accessible navigation tools (assistive technologies), while remediating errors and accessibility issues detected on the website through our great remediation solution configured for each website by our accessibility experts: inSuit Accessibility Manager™.
Over the years, these solutions have been followed by a whole portfolio of digital accessibility products and services that are making it possible for inSuit to get closer and closer to achieving the longed-for universality of the Internet.This has led inSuit to be part of a key collaboration with the European Union for the improvement of digital accessibility, actively participating in very relevant international forums such as the “Spanish Focus Group AccessCoVE”, the launching of the AccessibleEU and the European Accessibility Summit 2024, reinforcing the fact that inSuit is an important agent of change in the digital transformation, both in the public and private sector. Although there is still a long way to go.
Over the years, inSuit has been on a path of constant evolution, starting with the creation of inSuit Tools™; this initial tool has served as the basis for the development of the soon-to-be-launched inSuit 360™ comprehensive accessibility platform.
The inSuit 360™ platform consists of different solutions, in addition to inSuit Tools™ and and inSuit Accessibility Manager™, it also incorporates some complementary solutions such as:
As external services to the platform, inSuit also offers:
A process of integration and continuous improvement that reflects inSuit’s commitment to true digital inclusion, transforming the way digital accessibility is conceived.
inSuit’s founding team, composed of passionate visionaries, share a common philosophy: “accessibility should be universal and technology should be a solution, not a barrier”.
As Salvador Romero, CTO of inSuit, puts it: “The secret to technological accessibility lies within the technology itself. Technology is both the problem and the solution.
This thinking was key to the creation of a solution that not only facilitates access to the web, but does so in a way that is personalised and adapted to the needs of each user.
Juan Antonio Cebollada, CCO, underlines the company’s ambition: “In my mind, inSuit is already present on every website in the world, universalising access to content and services”. The universality of the web, according to this vision, is not a luxury, but a necessity.
Sebastian Rodriguez, CEO, sums it up in a nutshell: “Why do people have to adapt to technology? Let’s make the human-machine interfaces smarter and let them adapt better to us.
This statement reflects inSuit’s mission to put accessibility at the heart of the digital experience.
Throughout these 10 years, inSuit has established strong links with various associations working on behalf of people with disabilities.
Such collaborations have been fundamental to the growth and continuous improvement of the accessibility solution, as it allows for constant, first-hand feedback on the real needs of users.
Among inSuit’s friends are prominent organisations such as: CERMI CV, COCEMFE CV, COCEMFE Valencia, COCEMFE Alicante, RED Proyecto Social Discapacidad-Tecnología, APCA, AVAPACE, COGAMI, Fundación Reina Sofía and CASMACS, among others.
These collaborations have not only helped refine inSuit’s technology, but have also strengthened the social impact of the solution offered, contributing to improving the quality of life of thousands of people with disabilities.
As a result, inSuit is not just a technology tool, but a solution driven by and for the community.
inSuit’s impact has not gone unnoticed. Over the years, the company has received numerous awards and recognition for its commitment to digital accessibility.
Among the most notable recent recognitions are being included in the Gartner® Market Guide for Digital Accessibility; as well as being awarded the Vodafone Empresas 2024 “Pymes a otro nivel” prize for the most innovative SME company in Spain.
Other distinctions include: the Queen Letizia Award for Accessibility Technologies, a national recognition for innovation and its ability to improve the lives of people with disabilities.
Other milestones include the European Scale Up Programme award, where inSuit was recognised as one of the companies with the greatest growth potential in the Valencian Community.
It has also won the Socinfo Digital Awards in the category of “Cooperation between ICT companies and Public Administrations”, thanks to the successful implementation of inSuit Tools™ on the Social Security website.
In addition, the platform has been awarded by Las Naves, through the Technological Accessibility Laboratory for its project “Access to the Web with Easy Reading” and has received recognition for Inclusion in the Valencian Community for being a socially responsible company.
These achievements are backed by various certifications that guarantee the quality, security and respect for the environment of the services offered by inSuit, such as the National Security Scheme (ENS) medium level, ISO 27001, ISO 14001, ISO 9001, DTI Network (Independent Tourist Destinations) certifications, inSuit AA – Accessibility WCAG 2.1, ITU Associate and recognition as an Innovative SME.
Universal access to the web is no longer a distant ideal thanks to the technology developed by inSuit. The solution has empowered thousands of people with disabilities by providing access to essential digital services, significantly improving their quality of life.
This positive impact reflects a decade of commitment, innovation and collaboration with a clear mission: to make the web accessible to all.
As we celebrate 10 years at inSuit, the future looks full of new opportunities to continue to innovate and expand universal access.
In the words of Tim Berners-Lee himself, creator of the World Wide Web: “The power of the Web is in its universality. Access for anyone, regardless of disability, is an essential aspect”. And at inSuit, that power continues to make a difference every day.If you would like more information about inSuit or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
