Thoughts on building better tools, smarter strategies, and technology that lasts.
Most alt text is either missing or useless. "Image" tells a screen reader user nothing. "Photo of a team working together in a modern office" tells them everything they don't need. Here's how to write alt text that actually works.
That light gray text on white might look elegant in Figma, but it fails 4.6 million Americans with low vision. Color contrast is a WCAG requirement, not a style choice, and getting it right makes everything better.
A mouse is one way to get around a website. But if your site only works with a mouse, you've locked the gate on everyone who navigates differently. Keyboard accessibility is the tractor that reaches every row.
Two tools scanning the same field never made sense for long. We merged eiAEO into eiSEO so every scan covers SEO, accessibility, and answer engine optimization in one pass.
Factory-farmed code ships fast and breaks faster. Here's why we take the agrarian approach to software: patient, intentional, and built to last more than one season.
Spreadsheets weren't built for tracking a pedalboard that changes every gig. GAS Log was. Here's why musicians deserve a purpose-built tool for managing their gear collection.
Accessibility and SEO aren't competing priorities. They're companion plants. When you invest in one, the other grows stronger. Here's how they share the same root system.
A good farmer walks the rows. eiSEO does the same for your website, scanning every page for accessibility violations and SEO gaps so nothing slips through the cracks.
Even well-tended gardens get weeds. These five common WCAG violations show up on nearly every site we scan, and most teams don't know they're there until someone can't get through.
A healthy harvest starts underground. Accessibility isn't a feature bolted onto a finished product. It's the soil everything else depends on. Here's why WCAG compliance should be the first seed you plant.
