ChartIQ Differentiators

Transformative Digital Solutions for Accessibility

Global accessibility is imperative for users who need to access our charting solutions and smart desktop technology in different ways. Developing our software with WCAG standards in mind means our clients are able to provide accessibility features out-of-the-box for their own clients. Helping to make our clients’ solutions more accessible for their clients is a cycle of inclusiveness that we’re happy to be a part of. ChartIQ’s accessibility features include:

• Keyboard navigation: This feature allows users to navigate through the charting interface entirely using the keyboard, providing an alternative to mouse interactions. It is designed to accommodate users with motor impairments or those who prefer keyboard-based controls, ensuring that all parts of the interface are accessible without a mouse.
• Keyboard shortcuts: ChartIQ offers customizable keyboard shortcuts that enable users to perform frequent actions, such as zooming, scrolling, and switching between views. These shortcuts enhance the efficiency of navigation and make the platform more accessible for users who may not be able to use a mouse.
• Chart2Music: This integrated solution makes financial data more accessible by converting visual chart patterns into sound, allowing blind and visually impaired users to identify market trends through rising and falling tones, supporting more inclusive financial analysis.

• Color blindness themes: To assist users with color blindness, ChartIQ includes themes that adjust the color palettes used in charts. These themes ensure that important distinctions, such as trends and data variations, remain clear and easily interpretable.
• Table View: The Table View feature provides an exportable text-based representation of chart data in a structured, tabular format. This is particularly useful for users who have difficulty interpreting visual data or rely on screen readers, as it presents the same information in a more accessible and digestible way.
• Screen readers: ChartIQ’s web components support screen readers that render text and image content as speech or braille output.
• Chart2Music: This integrated solution makes financial data more accessible by converting visual chart patterns into sound, allowing blind and visually impaired users to identify market trends through rising and falling tones, supporting more inclusive financial analysis.
