November 15, 2025

🎙️ Episode: Holiday Shopping Made Accessible with Patrick Long of InnoSearch The holiday shopping season is here, and with it comes the often-frustrating challenge of navigating inaccessible websites, complex checkout forms, and flashing deals. In this episode, Roberto and Anthony sit down with Patrick Long, co-founder of InnoSearch, to discuss how his platform is designed to eliminate these barriers for blind and low-vision users. Patrick details the “accessibility layer” that powers InnoSearch, which functions as a unified, seamless portal for e-commerce, flight bookings, and even grocery delivery. We explore the platform’s 24/7 AI-powered phone assistant, the new native iOS app, and the future of their powerful Cobrowse AI technology. 🎁 Special Offer for Listeners! InnoSearch is offering a $10 gift card (delivered as a coupon code) to the first 10 listeners of this episode!

New iOS App: Patrick discusses the recent launch of the InnoSearch mobile app for iOS and the roadmap for integrating the full voice AI experience.
How InnoSearch Handles Deals: Worried about missing out on Black Friday or Prime Deals? Patrick explains how the platform captures time-sensitive sales in real-time without the overwhelming and inaccessible “flash deal” user interface.
