My organisation
Equivalent is transforming the future of digital design with groundbreaking Smart SVG™ technology. We empower designers and developers to create graphics that are not only visually stunning but also dynamic, accessible, and responsive to diverse user needs. Our platform ensures that digital visuals automatically adapt to user preferences, such as dark mode, high-contrast settings, and other accessibility requirements, making content inclusive for everyone.
With deep expertise in design, accessibility, and artificial intelligence, our team has developed tools that seamlessly integrate into workflows through platforms like Figma, Adobe Illustrator, and Digital Asset Management systems. Equivalent simplifies the complexities of creating responsive and accessible graphics by automating design processes, reducing costs, and saving valuable time for teams.
Our mission is to bridge the gap between creativity and inclusivity, ensuring that every graphic meets international compliance standards while delivering a personalized and energy-efficient experience.
