About Accessibyte
Simple. Fun. Accessible.
Introduction
Accessibyte creates educational apps for all learners of all ages and abilities. From blind and visually impaired students, to those with other accessibility needs, to general education classrooms or adult users at home. Our accessibility-included approach keeps things simple, intuitive and fun, so every student can learn without barriers and every teacher can focus on teaching.
Mission & Approach
We believe assistive technology should be easy to use and enjoyable. That’s why every Accessibyte app includes built-in voicing, magnification and visual settings. No outside software required. Our core values:
Listen to users → Build features from real feedback.
Explore ideas → Even quirky ones (hello, Typing Pets).
Keep it simple → Average learning curve: just one minute.
Lovable apps → Tools designed to spark excitement and motivation, not just meet requirements.
Our Story
Accessibyte began with one simple goal: create fun, effective software for blind and visually impaired students. The very first app, Typio, made typing practice accessible in a way students actually enjoyed. Once teachers saw its impact, ideas started pouring in, including record-keeping, customization, accessibility options and more.
From there, we grew to meet the needs of students with other assistive technology requirements, adding features and tools that support a wide range of learners.
That evolution led to a surprising milestone: mainstream teachers began telling us their sighted students wanted in on the fun, too. What started as highly specialized software is now being used by students in general education classrooms and adults at home, proving that accessible, intuitive and playful design benefits everyone.
Today, Accessibyte provides online and offline platforms where users can study, play and be productive without complicated setup. Our apps support classrooms, adult education programs, libraries and nonprofits across the country.
