Incorporating usability for people with disabilities in product development cycles has proven to consistently drive product innovations that have drastically improved the way we all live and work.

Fable was named to Fast Company’s list of the The World’s Most Innovative Companies 2023 last week, based on its strides in making the digital world more inclusive for everyone.

Fast Company said the list highlights, “businesses at the forefront of their respective industries. These companies are setting the standard with some of the greatest accomplishments of the modern world.” The publication’s reporters and editors placed Fable number 5 in the top 10 companies in design, noting, “…companies like Figma and Fable are redefining what it means to make design accessible to all.”

“Our goal from the beginning has been to fundamentally change how digital teams build products,” said Alwar Pillai, co-founder and CEO of Fable. “Incorporating usability for people with disabilities in product development cycles has proven to consistently drive product innovations that have drastically improved the way we all live and work.”

Fable joins the ranks of many of their innovative customers who have made Fast Company’s list this year and in previous years, including Microsoft, Figma, and Shopify.

Over one billion people live with a disability globally. This largely unaddressed market segment is vastly increasing due to an ageing population. Digital inclusion and accessibility are vital, everything from media, to commerce and healthcare, is moving online. However, the digital products and websites we depend on are still often unusable to people with disabilities.

Fable challenges organizations to think differently about accessibility problems. Through testing and training platforms that provide insight into, and expertise from, the lived experiences of people with disabilities, Fable clients are discovering innovative solutions that make their products better for everyone.
