A standards-driven accessibility and quality engineering firm built
to see what
others miss.
Our Foundation
Periscope Digital Assurance LLC is a Detroit-based accessibility and digital quality engineering studio founded
by seasoned UX, QA, and
standards professionals. We exist to raise the bar for digital experiences by applying rigorous, evidence-based
methods that uncover
issues long before they become risks. Our work blends human-centered design, accessibility compliance, and
technical precision to help
organizations deliver digital products that are usable, resilient, and inclusive for everyone.
We bring decades of combined experience across government, enterprise, transportation, and public-facing digital
systems spaces where
accuracy, clarity, and compliance are non-negotiable. Our approach is grounded in WCAG, Section 508, and
industry-recognized QA
methodologies, but elevated through modern UX thinking and a commitment to ethical, transparent practice.
What We Stand For
Periscope was built on a simple belief: quality and accessibility are not add-ons they are the foundation of
trustworthy digital
experiences. We help teams adopt sustainable, standards-aligned practices that reduce risk, improve user
satisfaction, and strengthen
long-term product health. Whether we're auditing an interface, validating a workflow, or building a repeatable
QA framework, our goal is
always the same: empower organizations to deliver digital experiences that work for everyone, every time.
How We Work
We don't just identify issues we illuminate patterns, root causes, and systemic gaps. Our process is
collaborative, transparent, and
intentionally educational. We equip teams with the knowledge, tools, and documentation they need to maintain
quality long after the
engagement ends. Every audit, test plan, and recommendation is crafted with clarity, precision, and real-world
applicability.
Our Mission
To elevate digital experiences through accessibility, quality, and standards-driven engineering; helping
organizations build products that are inclusive, resilient, and built to last.
