If a platform claiming to serve 185 countries doesn't work for people with disabilities, slow connections, or old devices — it doesn't work at all.

📱
Any device
Works on the cheapest Android phone, a 10-year-old laptop, or the latest iPhone. No app required. Just a browser.

🧑‍🦽
Any ability
Screen readers, keyboard navigation, high contrast, reduced motion — designed for the full spectrum of human capability.

⚖ WCAG 2.2 Level AA

We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. The four principles:

P Perceivable
Text alternatives for non-text content. Sufficient color contrast ratios. Content is readable and distinguishable.
O Operable
All functionality available from keyboard. No time limits on reading. No content that causes seizures.
U Understandable
Text is readable. Pages behave predictably. Input assistance for forms.
R Robust
Content is compatible with current and future assistive technologies.

♿ Accessibility Widget — 23 features

Every page includes a built-in accessibility widget — the button on the right side of your screen. All 23 features are free, with preferences saved automatically in your browser via localStorage. No account. No tracking.

🔣 Text Size (3)
  • Normal (A) — default
  • Large (A+) — 18px, line-height 2
  • Extra Large (A++) — 21px, line-height 2.1
👁 Visual (3)
  • High Contrast — 1.4x contrast boost
  • Highlight Links — yellow outline on all links
  • Large Cursor — indigo halo cursor
📖 Reading (3)
  • Dyslexia Font — OpenDyslexic typeface
  • Text Spacing — letter/word spacing boost
  • Reduce Motion — stops all animations
🎨 Color Vision (6)
  • Protanopia (red-blind)
  • Deuteranopia (green-blind)
  • Tritanopia (blue-blind)
  • Grayscale — full desaturation
  • Invert Colors — negative mode
  • High Saturation — 2x color boost
🧠 Focus (3)
  • ADHD Mode — hides distractions, narrows content
  • Reading Guide — line follows your cursor
  • Reading Mask — dark overlay with focus window
💡 Profiles (5)
  • Seizure Safe — no animations, low saturation
  • Cognitive Mode — simplified layout, larger text

Color vision modes are mutually exclusive — activating one automatically deactivates the others. All other features can be combined freely.

⚙ Technical measures

🌐 Multilingual accessibility

Accessibility is not just about disability. It's about language. A student who can only read Hausa is excluded from 99% of the internet's educational content. Our platform exists to fix that.

💬
88 languages
Including languages with zero online educational content before ORBITECH.
🔄
Right-to-left
Full RTL support for Arabic, Urdu, Pashto, and Hebrew — layout, text direction, and UI.
🎓
Local curricula
Content adapted to each country's education system. Not a one-size-fits-all Western standard.
🔌
Offline capable
Students can save articles for offline reading using their browser's built-in save function.

⚠ Known limitations

We are transparent about areas where we're still improving:

Mathematical formulas — MathML/KaTeX may not be fully readable by all screen readers. We provide text explanations alongside every formula.

Generated content — Some AI-generated articles may have inconsistent heading hierarchies. We continuously audit and fix these issues.

Interactive quizzes — Rely on JavaScript. Non-JS fallbacks are planned.

Widget scope — All 23 features work on both article pages and main site pages. Some visual effects (ADHD clutter hiding, cognitive layout narrowing) are more impactful on content-heavy article pages.

📩 Report a barrier

If you encounter an accessibility barrier, please tell us. We take every report seriously.

If a student with a disability, a slow phone, or a rare language can't access our content — that's a bug, not a feature request. We fix bugs.
