About

A service by Foundations

Powered by Rightision

for social landlords and the teams making housing accessible.

AccessCheck is built by Foundations — the national body for home improvement agencies in England — and Rightision to help social landlords, local authorities, occupational therapists and charities understand the accessibility of homes faster, more consistently, and with evidence that holds up to review. Rightision is the AI engine behind AccessCheck. It combines computer vision, spatial reasoning and large language models to interpret floor plans and property photos, extract geometry and features, and assign a clear accessibility category against recognised housing guidance.

Who AccessCheck is for

Social landlords, local authority housing teams, occupational therapists, home improvement agencies and charities supporting disabled tenants and applicants. Wherever an accessibility decision is being made about a home, AccessCheck aims to make that decision faster, fairer and more evidenced.

How we approach accessibility

Our categories are informed by established access and housing design guidance — including the Wheelchair Housing Design Guide, Housing Corporation Scheme Development Standards, Lifetime Homes and Building Regulations Part M. Every category is supported by photographic, geometric or listing evidence so reviewers can see exactly how it was reached.

What the engine does

The Rightision AI engine identifies rooms, doorways, fixtures and circulation space from imagery, infers measurements where plans lack annotation, and produces evidence-backed accessibility categories informed by Building Regulations Part M, Lifetime Homes and the Wheelchair Housing Design Guide.

Why it matters

Every accessibility category AccessCheck surfaces is generated and explained by the Rightision AI engine, with the underlying photos, geometry and listings attached so reviewers, landlords and tenants can see how each decision was reached.
