Our accessibility approach
Last updated: 18 July 2026.
Accessibility is not a side chapter for us: it is part of the product. WeDispatch exists so that a written article is also an article you can listen to — for people with low vision, dyslexia, eye strain, or simply busy hands. This page describes what we actually do, and where we stand, without embellishment.
What the product brings to our clients' readers
- An audio version of every article, generated automatically on publish — not just the articles someone remembered to voice. Accessibility becomes a property of the template, not a box to tick.
- Synced text: each word lights up the instant it is spoken, and clicking a word places the audio there. Seeing and hearing at once is a recognised aid for dyslexia.
- SRT/VTT subtitles produced from the same word-level timing, at no extra cost: audio content remains accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing people.
- A keyboard-friendly player: play/pause and navigation work without a mouse, ARIA labels on the controls, player contrast inherited from the host site's design.
- No account, no tracker imposed on listeners: listening requires neither registration nor cookie consent (see Security & data).
What we do on our own site
wedispatch.fr is built with semantic structure (hierarchical headings, explicit links, alt text on meaningful images), contrast checked on the main components, and it remains usable with a keyboard. Pages work without JavaScript for the essential content.
Where we stand on conformity — honestly
France's RGAA and the European Accessibility Act set a demanding framework, and a serious conformity declaration requires a formal, criterion-by-criterion audit. That audit has not been carried out yet: we would rather tell you than display an unverifiable percentage. As the law stands, our site must therefore be considered non-compliant within the meaning of the RGAA — not because everything in it is inaccessible, but because conformity can only be declared with an audit to back it. We are taking this in order: the product first (it is what serves your readers), the formal audit next.
Hit an obstacle? Tell us
If you encounter a barrier — on this site or in the player embedded on one of our clients' sites — write to contact@wedispatch.fr describing the page and the problem. We reply, and accessibility fixes go to the front of the queue.
If you feel you have not received a satisfactory answer, you can contact the French Défenseur des droits.
