Service website
Six service pages (audits, document remediation, media, code fixes, monitoring, VPAT/ACR), each with deliverables and a starting price.

Case study · In-house brandClearLayer Access: accessibility under your brand.
We designed, built and run ClearLayer Access: a white-label accessibility service for web agencies, with its own website, free tools that earn search traffic, a client and staff portal, and an authenticated mail domain for outreach.
What you can hire us for: service websites that make complex compliance work easy to buy, plus the portals and tools behind them.

01 / The problem
Agencies are asked for accessibility. Few have the specialists.
What the brand had to solve, for agencies and for us.
Web agencies keep getting asked for audits, accessible PDFs, captions, code fixes and VPAT reports. Most do not have accessibility specialists in-house, and US public entities now face ADA Title II deadlines for their websites and documents, often with thousands of PDFs.
We needed a brand an agency could trust on day one with no client names to show: clear services and prices, real evidence of how the work is done, and a secure way to hand files back and forth.
- 01Explain six technical services in plain words, with published starting prices.
- 02Prove the method without borrowing anyone else's logo.
- 03Let agencies resell the work under their own brand.
- 04Move client files through a signed-in portal, not email attachments.
- 05Send outreach that reaches inboxes and keeps personal accounts out of it.
02 / What we built
A complete service business, end to end.
Website, tools, portal and mail, all live.
Free PDF test
Eligible organizations send up to 10 pages and see the quality and testing record before they buy.
Before and after sample
A demonstration document with nine selected checks, clearly labelled as illustrative, never passed off as a client file.
ADA Title II deadline checker
Turns an entity type and population into a compliance date, days left and a weekly page pace; dates checked against the Federal Register.
Guides and standards
Plain-language guides on WCAG, PDF/UA, Section 508 and Title II, written to answer what buyers search for.
Client portal
Orders, file upload, quotes, invoices, messages and delivery approvals for each agency, behind a sign-in.
Staff review workspace
Tag structure, reading order, issues, internal and agency notes, and versioned files in one screen.
Authenticated mail
A business mail domain with SPF, DKIM and DMARC for outreach, kept separate from personal accounts.
03 / How it works
From first visit to approved delivery.
The path an agency and its files take. Dots show the flow.

The real product, captured from the live site.

05 / Portal and quality records
The work behind the website.
Implemented in the product. Not a legal certification.
- Testing on recordPAC, NVDA and manual review results are recorded per file, not just promised.
- Versioned filesEvery upload keeps its version, uploader and date.
- Two kinds of notesInternal notes stay with the team; agency notes go to the client.
- Staff-only until approvedWorking files stay private until they are part of an approved delivery.
- Defined upload rulesAllowed file types and size limits are stated on the upload screen.
- Access and auditA separate area for user access and the audit history.
The portal stores and tracks files; remediation and testing are done by people with professional tools. We do not give legal advice or guarantee freedom from legal claims.
06 / Decisions
Choices that make a new brand credible.
What a buyer can ask us about.
Demonstrations, not borrowed logos
With no client names to publish, we show a labelled demonstration document and offer a free test on the buyer's own files.
Prices on the page
Every service shows a starting price, so agencies can quote their own clients without waiting for us.
Clear limits
The site and portal say plainly what we do not do: legal advice, guarantees, or changes to a live website.
One portal codebase, two brands
The same portal code serves ClearLayer Access and eFiling Ready through a brand configuration, so fixes reach both.
Tools that earn traffic
The deadline checker and guides answer real search questions and lead to the free test.
Authenticated mail
Outreach runs on a business domain with SPF, DKIM and DMARC at a low, steady volume. Authentication helps deliverability; it does not guarantee the inbox.
07 / Timeline
From name to live service in days.
Then improved continuously.
Brand and domain
Name chosen, domain registered, hosting and DNS set up.
Website and portal
Public site and client and staff portal built to approved designs.
Business mail
Mail on our own domain with SPF, DKIM and DMARC; outreach moved off personal accounts.
Tools and content
Free PDF test, before-and-after sample, deadline checker and guides.
Operations
The team runs the free tests, remediation and portal day to day.
08 / What it shows

How we would run your build: a free call, then a written scope with a fixed price or monthly rate, weekly progress updates, independent QA before launch, and a full handover of code, documentation and access. See how we work →
ClearLayer Access is an in-house brand designed, built and run by Arcvane Labs. It is not commissioned client work, and we show no client names, user counts or revenue. Portal screens use test fixtures.
