🚀 Chromatic's Accessibility Testing & Dashboard are now live!

Powered by Storybook & axe, we're making accessibility compliance seamless across your entire dev lifecycle—without slowing you down.
Most teams fix a11y issues. Not all stop creating new ones.

Tomorrow, our product team is sharing how we built a system that does both—cutting 15k+ violations without slowing delivery.

Join us live & bring your questions!

We cut our a11y issues by 94% after we stopped treating them as tickets & started treating them as system flow. Then we blocked new regressions in CI, inflow dropped to zero & the backlog finally moved.

Now we’re sharing how we did it in a live session.

You can’t trust what you can’t reproduce.

Flaky tests pass, fail, then pass again — not because of randomness, but rendering instability.

This Thursday, Scott Johnson, PhD from Chromatic shows how SteadySnap has cut false diffs by 34%.

Your test fails. You rerun it. It passes. Flake ≠ random. It’s render instability.

Join Chromatic’s graphics specialist, Scott Johnson, to learn what causes flake & how SteadySnap cuts visual inconsistencies by 34%.

We cut @chromatic.com total accessibility violations by over 66% in the last 6 weeks. Here's how:

Over the years, we accrued a11y debt because it was everyone and no one's responsibility. Sure, we did VPATs but they were out of date the moment they were finished.

AI-generated UI ≠ production UI.

AI UI is off-brand without your design system, and falls apart in production.

Join us live with @tpitre.bsky.social, CEO of Southleft & AI-powered DS expert, to see how Storybook + MCP + Claude generate UI from your real components.

👀 Reminder: our webinar’s tomorrow

A11y testing isn’t either/or.
Automated checks catch the obvious. Manual testing catches the weird stuff.

Used together = fewer bugs in prod.

Join us + Homer Gaines, CPACC to break down a workflow that scales.

Automated a11y tests = fast + scalable.
Manual a11y testing = real-world coverage.

Used together? You catch more bugs before they ship.
