What is OpenScouter?

Real users. Real insights. AI-powered accessibility testing.

The Problem with Automated Testing

97% of the top 1 million websites fail WCAG accessibility standards. Yet most teams rely on automated scanners to check their work.

Automated tools catch only around 30% of accessibility barriers. The remaining 70% require real people navigating real interfaces. No scanner can replicate what it feels like to use a product when your brain processes information differently.

What OpenScouter Does

OpenScouter closes the gap between what automated tools can find and what real people actually experience.

It connects businesses with neurodivergent expert testers who run structured accessibility studies. While testers work through your product, a 4-agent AI pipeline analyzes what’s happening. Every AI-generated finding goes back to the tester for confirmation before it reaches your report.

Human judgment leads. AI supports.

The Rainbow Infinity Symbol

You’ll see the rainbow infinity symbol throughout OpenScouter. It’s the widely recognized symbol of neurodiversity.

The infinity shape reflects the boundless variation in human minds. The rainbow spectrum represents the full range of neurological differences. Neurodivergent conditions include autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, and many others. Each brings a distinct way of experiencing the world, including the digital products we build.

How It Works

Commission a Study

Businesses submit a study brief describing their product, testing goals, and the type of neurodivergent expertise they need. OpenScouter matches you with the right testers.

Testers Run the Tests

Neurodivergent experts complete structured tasks on your product. The AI pipeline observes browser events, voice feedback, and behavioral signals in real time.

AI Analyzes and Proposes

The 4-agent pipeline organizes observations into candidate findings, maps them to WCAG criteria, and assigns preliminary severity ratings.

Testers Confirm Every Finding

No finding enters your report without tester sign-off. Testers review, edit, or reject every AI-generated item. Their lived experience is the final authority.

You Receive Actionable Insights

Your report includes confirmed barriers, WCAG mappings, reproduction steps, and prioritized recommendations your team can act on immediately.

Track Progress Over Time

Rerun studies after fixes to measure improvement. OpenScouter tracks barrier resolution across tests, giving you a clear picture of your accessibility trajectory.

”Nothing About Us Without Us”

This phrase comes from disability rights advocacy, and it is a core principle at OpenScouter.

The people who experience accessibility barriers are the most qualified to identify them. Our testers are neurodivergent experts who bring lived experience across 13 neurodivergent categories. They are not subjects in an experiment. They are the experts running it.

Every finding in every report is confirmed by a human who actually experienced the barrier. The AI organizes and amplifies what testers find. It does not replace their judgment.
