VerityAI Raises $42M and Unveils 'DesignSage' for Automated Accessibility Audits

AI · 5 min read

DesignSage uses a combination of computer vision, semantic analysis, and heuristic checks to surface contrast issues, missing alt text, and problematic interaction patterns. VerityAI's Series B was led by Inclusive Capital.

Beyond detection, DesignSage provides contextual fixes—color swaps, suggested aria attributes, and layout adjustments—and estimates the engineering effort required to implement them. Designers can apply some fixes automatically within the tool and re-run audits.

The company also offers a certification workflow that documents fixes and generates a compliance report for stakeholders. Enterprises can integrate DesignSage into their CI/CD to catch regressions before releases.

VerityAI will expand language support, invest in expanded interaction testing (keyboard nav, screenreader flows), and build deeper integrations with design systems. Investors see regulatory and brand risk as major drivers for automated accessibility tooling.
