OutSystems is built for speed.
But is your app built for compliance?

OutSystems lets you build and ship faster than ever, but without accessibility, you’re creating compliance risk, technical debt, and lost users.

Fix accessibility early. Save thousands later.

Integrating accessibility into your OutSystems workflow from day one means no rework, no compliance risks, and a product everyone can use, without slowing down delivery.

Cost of fixing accessibility at the end

What Inaccessibility Really Costs You

Inaccessibility isn't just a compliance risk. It's lost users, lost trust, and lost revenue.

Balance

Legal risk

The EU Accessibility Act is now in force. Non-compliance can result in fines and lawsuits, and the risk grows every year.

Opened Door

Technical Debt

Fixing accessibility after the fact means reworking components, breaking themes, and revisiting custom code. The later you fix it, the more it costs.

Host

Excluded Users

OutSystems apps often serve employees, customers, and citizens. Every barrier is a real person who can't do their job or complete a task.

Groups

Compliance Requirements

Healthcare, finance, and government sectors require accessibility as a condition for procurement. Without it, you're locked out of key opportunities.

OUTSYSTEMS & ACCESSIBILITY

Where OutSystems Projects Fail?

OutSystems gives you a solid foundation, but real projects break accessibility in customization.

  1. Custom branding breaks contrast and readability

    Themes, color palettes, and typography changes often create contrast issues that fail WCAG criteria, and are easy to miss until an audit flags them.

  2. Custom code introduces barriers

    OutSystems UI covers most cases, but custom logic and UI patterns can lack proper focus management, keyboard support, or screen reader compatibility.

  3. No UX input means poor usability for everyone

    Many projects rely on developers for UI decisions. If an interface isn't intuitive for general users, it's even more problematic for users with disabilities.

  4. Accessibility expertise is rare

    Even experienced OutSystems developers struggle with ARIA attributes, built-in accessibility properties, and assistive tech testing. Getting it right from the start prevents technical debt from accumulating.

Frequently Asked Questions

It's the practice of making websites and apps usable by people with disabilities. Beyond compliance, it improves usability for everyone, expands your audience, and reduces legal risk.

The EU Accessibility Act (EAA) is now in force across Europe. In the US, the ADA applies to digital platforms. WCAG 2.1 AA is the global technical standard referenced by most regulations.

Fines, lawsuits, and reputational damage, depending on your region and sector. More immediately: excluded users and a platform that doesn't meet procurement requirements in regulated industries.

Automated tools like Lighthouse, WAVE, or Axe detect some issues, but manual testing is essential. Our audit combines both, covering 10 key screens in 5 days, with a structured report and action plan.

Most critical issues are resolved within 10 days. We prioritize by impact, provide an estimate for remaining work, and ensure fixes don't disrupt your existing workflows.

Yes. Accessibility isn't a one-time fix, new features can introduce new barriers. Training gives your team the knowledge to maintain compliance independently over time.

Government, healthcare, financial services, education, and e-commerce face the strictest requirements. But every organization serving the public has both a legal and ethical responsibility to ensure access.
