Accessibility at BioMedware
We want everyone who needs spatial analysis to be able to use Vesta. This page says what we test, where we know Vesta falls short, and how to reach us if something gets in your way.
Our target
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA on this website, the Vesta documentation, Vesta Academy, and the pages where you buy and manage a plan.
What we test
- This website, Docs and Academy. Every page is scanned with axe-core against the WCAG 2.2 A and AA rules, at phone and desktop widths. The last full audit, on October 20, 2026, found no violations.
- Keyboard and motion. Focus is visible at every stop we checked, menus open with Enter and close with Escape, and with reduced motion turned on in your system settings nothing animates and no video plays.
- Checkout, sign-in and account pages. Text meets a 4.5:1 contrast ratio, buttons and links are at least 44 pixels tall on phones, and the pages work at 390 pixels wide without sideways scrolling.
- Vesta Online and Vesta desktop. Automated tests check that the interface's text colors meet the 4.5:1 contrast ratio in every theme.
Where Vesta falls short
- The Vesta apps have not had a full accessibility audit. Vesta Online and Vesta desktop have not yet been checked against WCAG the way this website has.
- Maps and charts are visual. Maps, charts, 3D views and animations show results as color and shape. A screen reader cannot yet describe them.
- Outside services. Card payments run on Stripe's checkout form and sign-in runs on Auth0. Their accessibility is up to those companies.
