Cadence

Accessibility statement

Last updated July 16, 2026

Sentient Music Technologies, LLC is committed to making Cadence accessible to everyone who uses it, consistent with Colorado House Bill 21-1110 and WCAG 2.1 AA as the working standard. Cadence is a provider-facing professional tool — students, parents, and the public do not interact with it — but accessibility for the professionals who do is treated as a requirement, not a feature.

What the app does today

  • Semantic HTML with labeled form controls and ARIA labels on icon-only actions; the interface is keyboard-reachable.
  • Where color carries meaning (instructional-level color coding), a settings toggle adds text abbreviations so the information never depends on color alone.
  • Touch targets of at least 44px on interactive controls, and responsive layouts that work from phone width up.
  • Light and dark modes, including a manual override independent of the device setting; text contrast targets 4.5:1 or better.
  • Motion is minimal and honors the system reduced-motion preference, which disables animation globally.

Known limitations

Cadence has not yet undergone a third-party accessibility audit, and some dense data views (the weekly planner grid, the caseload table) are optimized for sighted scanning and may be slow to navigate with a screen reader. We treat reported accessibility issues as defects and prioritize them accordingly. Formal conformance documentation (e.g., a VPAT) can be prepared for a reviewing organization on request.
