Accessible Usability Scale (AUS)
The Accessible Usability Scale (AUS) is a free tool to measure the usability of a digital product for assistive technology users. Inspired by the System Usability Scale (SUS), the Accessible Usability Scale consists of ten questions administered at the end of a user experience to calculate a score.
Why use the Accessible Usability Scale
It’s easy
AUS is an easy-to-understand psychometric survey that assistive technology users require little to no support to complete.
It’s numerical
Numerical scores don’t require a significant amount of subject matter expertise to understand, unlike WCAG or heuristic evaluations.
It’s inclusive
AUS scores complement SUS scores. The AUS is tailored to people who use assistive technology.
