How it works
Rules decide. Templates draft. You answer and file.
Lisavel is built from O. Reg. 191/11 (the Integrated Accessibility Standards) and Ontario's guidance pages, rule by rule, each with its citation. Here is what happens at each step, and what never happens.
The four steps
Free check
Organization type, employee band, public website, filed before. Fixed rules return: whether you file and when, which standards apply, and how many documents organizations your size are required to have. Nothing is stored about you.
Questionnaire
One standard per step. Plain questions, each with the duty behind it and the section it comes from. Yes, partly, no or not sure, plus notes. Save and return any time.
Report card and documents
A grade word per standard (Strong, Good, Needs attention, Serious issues, Urgent) from fixed rules. Findings ranked documents-first. Each document your size calls for, drafted from your answers as an editable Word file and PDF with a “what this commits you to” summary.
Filing walkthrough
The government form's questions, word for word, with the answer your evidence supports today, the evidence to keep, and a plain flag where the honest answer is still No. You file on Ontario's portal; your certifier signs.
Who decides what
| Decision | Decided by | How you can check |
|---|---|---|
| Which standards and duties apply to you | Fixed rules from the regulation (size, sector, website, public spaces) | Every item links to its section on ontario.ca |
| Which documents your size is required to have | Fixed rules (s. 3(3), 4, 7(5), 28, 29, 80.46 to 80.50) | The free check lists them with citations |
| Grade words and the order of findings | Fixed rules, published on the report card | “How grades are decided” on every report |
| Contradictions (for example “trained” but no record) | Fixed rules flag them | Each flag comes with a fixed explanation of what does not match |
| The wording of your documents and explanations | Plain templates, filled in from your answers | You read, edit and adopt every draft; nothing is adopted for you |
| Your answers on the government form | Your organization's certifier | We show what your evidence supports; we never suggest a “Yes” it does not |
No AI is used in this version. What is stored, and for how long, is in the privacy policy.
What we don't claim
Accuracy is the whole product, so we are careful about what we say it does.
Never
- We never say your organization is
compliant
,certified
orguaranteed
. Those words do not appear in your report. Whether you meet the law is a judgement only you, or a lawyer, can make. - We never file on your behalf, and we never answer the government's questions for you.
- We never suggest an answer your evidence does not support.
- We never give legal advice. The regulation on e-Laws prevails over any summary here.
Limits
- The tool works from your answers. It does not inspect your premises, your HR files or your website. (A separate guide explains what to check yourself.)
- The transportation standard and the detailed technical rules for public spaces are flagged, not assessed.
- Version 1 covers businesses and non-profits. Public sector organizations get a correct free-check answer and no paid offer yet.
- Our summaries were read against the regulation in force from March 30, 2026 (last amendment O. Reg. 69/26). Read dates are shown on each page.
