Level AAA represents the highest standard of digital accessibility, setting aspirational goals that maximize usability for all users. While achieving complete AAA compliance may not be feasible for every product, its criteria provide valuable guidance for enhancing accessibility beyond the basic requirements.

Take contrast requirements as an example. AAA requires a contrast ratio of 7:1 for normal text, significantly higher than AA's 4.5:1 requirement. While this limits color palette options, it ensures optimal readability for users with severe visual impairments. This level of contrast also benefits everyone in challenging conditions like bright sunlight or dim lighting.

Rather than viewing AAA as an all-or-nothing goal, consider implementing specific AAA criteria where they add the most value for your users. Some features, like providing sign language interpretation for video content or limiting text width for better readability, can significantly improve accessibility for specific user groups while benefiting everyone's experience.
