For images, this is sometimes done with an alternate text attribute. While we could run an automated test to make sure images have this attribute, it takes a human\u2019s review to see if the text is appropriate. For example, an image could be simply labeled as a person, but<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ajithdauk\/31174563936\/in\/photolist-8ciE59-PuMMKE\" target=\"_blank\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a more accurate description<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> would be &#8220;Portugal&#8217;s forward Cristiano Ronaldo celebrates after scoring the second goal for Portugal during the FIFA 2014 World Cup playoff football match\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Intuit uses a series of automated tests to check for accessibility of our products. Manual reviews are also required to confirm areas that are not adequately evaluated by the automation.

Some of her learnings can be found in her QuickBooks blog post, \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/quickbooks.intuit.com\/blog\/thought-leadership\/how-to-work-with-deaf-or-hard-of-hearing-customers-and-employees\/\" ><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Work With Deaf or Hard of Hearing Customers and Employees<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Intuit\u2019s research with deaf entrepreneurs also drove a significant improvement to our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/quickbooks.intuit.com\/accountants\/proadvisor\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ProAdvisor profile pages<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Finding an accountant that understood American Sign Language was difficult for some customers, so we added language support to profile pages, including sign language.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/proadvisor.intuit.com\/app\/accountant\/search?searchId=charles-sterling\" target=\"_blank\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Charles Sterling<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is one such accountant fluent in sign language.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Intuit, machine learning reduces the number of steps required to set up a business, file taxes, categorize expenses, and manage your financial health. This significantly improves the experience for customers using assistive technology. Intuit is also exploring communication user interfaces, which benefit those with limited mobility. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our goal is to power prosperity, and today\u2019s accessibility research is breaking down barriers and providing new opportunities for our customers to build their business, manage their financial health, and live independent lives.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Photo courtesy of Param Singh\u2019s \u201cWeb Accessibility\u200a\u2014\u200aDeveloping web with empathy\u201d The web is constantly evolving.
