<b>conversation about accessibility conformance on Airtable's community forum</b></a>. The conversation is between someone named Bill French who I believe works for the company and Michael Cyr, who is very active with the Educate IT Accessibility group.</div>

"<span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.008px;">I tested the basic airtable DB table view/edit screen. I compared it to the WCAG2.1 level AA standard, section 2.1, Keyboard Accessibility, using the NVDA screen reader.
Its completely inaccessible, that is,keyboard-only control does not provide corresponding screen-reader accessible text that matches what is visually displayed. I test a lot of applications. Total lack of keyboard and screen reader support is unusual these
days. I also tested the read-only view of the table from a shareable link. Same lack of support.</span>

Ive also received a response from airtable. They do not have a conformance report. Im asking for clarification about what they DO know about the accessibility of their DB product."</p>
