Fathom Start a dive

Technica 2026 · Dare to Dive

Fathom how deep the barriers go.

Most of the web quietly shuts people out. Fathom dives into any page, shows it through other people's eyes, lets you hear it the way a screen reader does, and fixes what it can in one click.

      How it works

      See it. Hear it. Fix it.

      01

      See through other eyes

      Preview your page with physically-based color-blindness matrices, blur, glare and tunnel-vision lenses, then switch to a keyboard-only view that numbers every tab stop and flags clickable things the keyboard can never reach.

      02

      Hear what's really there

      Fathom builds a screen reader transcript from the accessibility tree and reads it aloud. Unlabeled buttons, file-name images and anonymous form fields become impossible to ignore. Compare it before and after with ElevenLabs voices.

      03

      Fix it, and learn why

      Every finding names the people it affects, the WCAG 2.2 criterion and a plain-English reason. One click applies a safe fix and re-audits live. Inclusive-language and reading-level checks make the words as welcoming as the code.

      Why we built this

      Inclusion is a feature you can measure.

      Technica exists to make tech a safe harbor for people who are too often left out. The same is true of the products we build. Fathom turns “make it accessible” from a vague promise into a score, a list, and a button, so a student building their first site can ship something everyone can use.
