Braille API

healthy 4,859 Subscribers

Convert text to Unicode braille and back. Uses uncontracted (Grade 1) English braille: the 26 letters, digits with the number sign, capitals with the capital sign, and common punctuation, all output as Unicode Braille Patterns (U+2800–U+28FF) so they render anywhere. The to-braille endpoint turns ordinary text into braille; the from-braille endpoint decodes braille back to text. Unknown characters pass through unchanged. Perfect for accessibility tooling and education, labels and signage mockups, braille-display previews and learning resources. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. Grade 1 only (no contractions). Distinct from cipher/alphabet encoders and from general text transforms.

ADA Ramp API

ADA wheelchair-ramp maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the run, landing and slope numbers a builder or accessibility planner sizes a ramp by. The rule the ADA fixes is 1 inch of rise per 12 of run, a maximum 8.33 % slope, so the ramp endpoint turns a rise into the ramp: run = rise × 12 (or × 16 / × 20 for a gentler grade if you have the room), plus the level landings the code requires — a 5-foot landing top and bottom and another between runs whenever the rise exceeds 30 inches — and the total length end to end, so a 24-inch rise needs a 24-foot run and 34 feet overall, while a 36-inch rise breaks into two runs with an intermediate landing for 51 feet. The fit endpoint answers the real-world question: does a ramp for this rise fit the run you have? It returns the minimum run an ADA 1:12 ramp needs, whether your space is enough, and the slope you would actually get if you forced it in — flagging when that exceeds 8.33 % and you need a switchback or a lower rise. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for construction, accessibility, home-modification and contractor app developers, ramp-estimator and code-check tools, and building software. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Confirm against current ADA and local code. Live, nothing stored. 2 compute endpoints.

Slope & Grade API

Slope and grade maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The convert endpoint converts a slope between every common form — percent grade, angle in degrees, a ratio such as 1:12, per mille and rise-per-run — where the slope m = rise ÷ run = tan(angle). The distance endpoint relates the run (horizontal), the rise (vertical) and the slope distance (the hypotenuse) of a right-triangle slope: give any two, optionally with the grade or angle, and it returns the rest. The ramp endpoint sizes a wheelchair or ADA ramp — from a rise and a maximum slope (defaulting to 1:12, the ADA maximum of 8.33%) it returns the required run and total ramp length, and if you supply an actual run it checks whether the ramp is within the limit. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for civil-engineering and surveying tools, road, trail and accessibility apps, construction and ramp design, and mapping software. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is slope and grade geometry; for roof pitch specifically use a roofing API.

Color Blindness Simulator API

See your colours the way colour-blind users do. Pass a hex colour (or a whole palette) and get back how it appears under each major colour-vision deficiency — protanopia (red-blind), deuteranopia (green-blind), tritanopia (blue-blind) and achromatopsia (total colour blindness) — as simulated hex and RGB values. Roughly 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women have some colour-vision deficiency, so this is ideal for accessibility testing of UI themes, charts, maps, status colours and branding: simulate your palette, spot colours that become indistinguishable, and fix them before you ship. Pure local matrix transforms — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live. 4 endpoints. Distinct from colour conversion and contrast tools.

Color API

A complete colour toolkit — convert between hex, RGB, HSL, HSV and CMYK with relative luminance, generate harmonious palettes (complementary, triadic, tetradic, analogous, monochromatic, shades), and compute WCAG contrast ratios with AA/AAA pass-fail for accessibility. Server-side, instant, no third-party services.
