Ensuring your application is accessible to all users is not just a compliance checkbox—it’s a competitive advantage. The ability to offer an inclusive experience for users of varying abilities enhances brand reputation, broadens your customer base, and can drive meaningful innovation. Cephable, a leader in assistive technology, offers an integration model that seamlessly fits into your existing software, allowing you to enhance accessibility without compromising on user experience or brand identity.

Product Integration Licensing with Cephable

Cephable is designed to extend the accessibility of your applications, making them more user-friendly for individuals with disabilities. Whether you’re looking to embed Cephable controls directly into your app or offer users a more dynamic interaction through multimodal controls, Cephable’s flexible integration models ensure that your needs are met.

We understand that every application is unique, and our integration models reflect this. We offer a variety of solutions, from no-code implementations to deeply embedded controls, all designed to enhance the usability and accessibility of your application. If our standard models don’t quite fit, we’re more than willing to work with you to create a custom solution that does.

Understanding Cephable’s Integration Models

We offer several integration models to suit the varying needs of our customers. Each model is designed to fit seamlessly into your existing application environment, ensuring that you can enhance your app’s accessibility without extensive development or disruption to your user experience.

1. Cephable as a Remote Control

This model allows brands to create control profiles for their products, which are then branded and added to the Cephable Control Library. This no-code solution is quick to implement, requires minimal support, and includes co-marketing opportunities. It’s ideal for desktop applications where quick execution and low maintenance are key.

2. Multimodal Controls

This model offers a deep level of functional control by leveraging Cephable Apps as controllers. It requires low code, no in-app UI modifications, and allows Cephable to function as the UI. This model is perfect for desktop apps, gaming consoles, and controlled environments such as ATMs or kiosks where camera and microphone inputs are available.

3. Embedded Controls

With embedded controls, users can control your app natively without needing a Cephable account. This model supports offline functionality, native app context, and behavior analytics. It’s an excellent fit for offline apps, mobile and tablet applications, and other controlled environments where users need a seamless experience without additional authentication steps.

4. Multimodal + Embedded Controls

The most robust model, this option allows end users to control your app either natively or through Cephable, based on their preferences. It supports offline functionality and native app context, and includes behavior analytics and co-marketing opportunities. This model is ideal for any environment where users need flexibility in how they interact with your application.

5. White Label Controls

For applications that require a fully branded experience, the white label model provides all the benefits of Cephable’s technology without the branding. While this model sacrifices co-marketing opportunities and the seamless cross-app experience for the user, it’s ideal for apps that need to maintain a wholly owned look and feel.

Flexible Pricing to Suit Your Needs

Cephable’s integration pricing is driven by two key variables: Monthly Average Users (MAU) and Average Session Length (ASL). This flexible pricing model ensures that your costs ebb and flow with your business needs, rather than being fixed at a premium rate.

Whether you have 5,000 MAU with a 50-minute ASL or 5 million MAU with an 8-hour ASL, Cephable’s pricing model is designed to be fair and reflective of your actual usage. We believe in delivering value—not just revenue—by making sure our pricing supports both your business goals and the end users’ need for accessible solutions.

Cephable Features as a Product Integration

Integrating Cephable into your software is more than just adding accessibility features—it’s about expanding the capabilities of your application and offering a superior user experience. With Cephable, you can:

Add Cephable Controls to Your Software

Allow users to authenticate with their Cephable account using OAuth2.0 (PKCE), and use Cephable APIs to get users’ settings and controls.

Create Custom Controls: Develop custom controls and default inputs that users can further personalize, ensuring that the application feels tailored to their specific needs.

Native Voice and Camera Controls: Integrate Cephable’s voice and camera controls directly into your app, so users don’t even need the Cephable app to enjoy enhanced functionality.

Developer-Friendly Integration

Cephable’s integration is developer-friendly, with samples, SDKs, and APIs available for a wide range of platforms including web apps, Android, iOS, Unity, and Windows. Our resources are designed to make the integration process as smooth as possible, so you can focus on enhancing your application rather than troubleshooting the integration.

Even if your users don’t have a Cephable account, you can create guest accounts and run controls natively within your application. This flexibility ensures that all users, regardless of whether they’re familiar with Cephable, can benefit from the enhanced accessibility features your app offers.

Robust Behavior Analytics

Understanding how users interact with your application is key to continuous improvement. Cephable’s inputs can be tracked as unique inputs against your existing functionality, allowing you to gain insights into how alternative inputs are being used. With Cephable’s behavior analytics, you can break down your app usage by input type, helping you refine and optimize the user experience.

Your UI, Our Functionality

One of the key benefits of integrating Cephable is that it connects to your existing functionality without the need to overhaul your user interface. This means you can maintain your application’s unique look and feel while seamlessly adding Cephable controls. Users will appreciate the enhanced accessibility without noticing any disruption to the UI they’re familiar with.

In Closing

Integrating Cephable into your native digital application is not just about adding a feature—it’s about enhancing your entire user experience. By choosing the integration model that best fits your needs, you can offer users a more accessible, customizable, and seamless interaction with your application. With flexible pricing, developer-friendly resources, and robust analytics, Cephable makes it easy to go beyond accessibility and truly elevate your application.
