Accessibility at soffyn.
Accessibility isn't an afterthought here. It's the reason soffyn exists.
Effective Date: March 1, 2026 | Last Updated: March 1, 2026 | Developed By Akia, LLC
Accessibility isn't an afterthought at soffyn — it's the reason it exists.
I'm Akia — a neurodivergent Black woman, developer, and accessibility consultant. I built soffyn with the full range of human brains in mind, including my own. This isn't compliance for compliance's sake. It's the reason soffyn exists.
1. Our commitment
soffyn is committed to meeting or exceeding WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standards across our website and app. This means:
- Sufficient color contrast for all text and interactive elements
- Keyboard navigability throughout the site and app
- Screen reader compatibility (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver)
- No flashing or strobing content that could trigger seizures
- Clear, plain language — no jargon, no walls of text
- Logical heading structure for assistive technology
- Alt text for all meaningful images
- Focus indicators on all interactive elements
2. Built for neurodivergent minds
soffyn is designed specifically for the cognitive accessibility needs of neurodivergent users, including those with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, anxiety, and sensory processing differences. This includes:
- Calm, low-stimulation visual design with no autoplay, pop-ups, or unexpected motion
- Short, scannable copy — nothing that demands sustained focus to understand
- Flexible interaction — use the app however works for your brain, at your own pace
- No time pressure, no streak penalties, no notifications designed to induce anxiety
- Quick-capture tools for when thoughts move faster than typing
- Focus timer built for ADHD work patterns, not neurotypical productivity expectations
3. Known limitations and ongoing work
soffyn is a pre-launch product built by one person. I'm deeply committed to accessibility and I acknowledge that no product is perfect — accessibility is ongoing work, not a checklist.
Current known areas of improvement:
- Full app accessibility audit is scheduled prior to September 2026 launch
- Captions and transcripts for any future video content will be provided
- Accessibility testing with neurodivergent users is part of our beta program
