Summary
Steffan Jonkers is a founder and developer with nine years of experience, now leading AccessibleTranslator from Amsterdam to tackle cognitive accessibility gaps using AI. With an MSc in Forensic Science and a background in chemometrics, he blends analytical rigor with machine learning to craft 50+ specialized transformations that turn complex text into genuinely understandable content. His platform and API help enterprises, CMS builders, digital agencies, and accessibility consultants move beyond technical compliance toward real comprehension for users with ADHD, autism, brain injuries, limited vocabulary, and more. Steffan’s work reframes accessibility as inclusive communication rather than checkbox conformance, and he’s actively seeking partnerships to embed cognitive accessibility into mainstream digital products.
