Cynthia  - CaricatureAbout the HiSoftware Cynthia Says Portal

The HiSoftware Cynthia Says™ portal educates users in the concepts behind Web site accessibility.  The simple, well-designed interface puts accessibility compliant code within the reach of all users, even those with little or no knowledge of Web design. The Cynthia Says™ portal provides feedback to users in a reporting format that is clear and easy to understand. Accessibility issues are detected within web sites from Web-based applications, dynamic pages, or static HTML pages. Users get an immediate “status” of their Web site accessibility. To find these, Cynthia Says™ utilizes HiSoftware’s AccMonitor Server technology, through which USER Agents (crawlers/scanners) collect individual page or dynamic page accessibility data. This information is then sent to the central server where actual accessibility verification is performed. The output is returned immediately to the user's browser.

The Cynthia Agent tests your page against programmatic test groups for Section 508 or W3C WCAG 1.0 Accessibility Guidelines. Please remember that in addition to these checks there are checks that must be manually performed. These manual tests are listed in your report!

   W3C WCAG 1.0 Guidelines
