In today’s digital-first world, accessibility isn’t just an option—it’s essential. For Itaú Unibanco, one of Latin America’s largest financial institutions, ensuring compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) has always been a top priority. However, keeping accessibility testing efficient while maintaining high standards was a challenge—until they introduced StackSpot AI.
This story explores how Itaú Unibanco overcame these hurdles and achieved remarkable results.
The Challenge: Scaling Accessibility at Itaú Unibanco
Itaú Unibanco’s Digital Accessibility hub, part of its Experience and Design community, has always been committed to upholding rigorous accessibility standards. Every new feature undergoes comprehensive testing before being deployed. However, these tests were traditionally performed manually by a specialized QA team with limited capacity.
The big question: how could Itaú scale accessibility testing without sacrificing quality or compliance?
The Solution: StackSpot AI’s Accessibility Testing Agent
To tackle this challenge, Itaú Unibanco turned to StackSpot AI, leveraging its advanced capabilities to develop a specialized AI Agent for accessibility testing. This cutting-edge solution enabled the team to validate WCAG criteria directly in the code, detecting and resolving potential issues early in development.
