Deaf people often face accessibility issues due to the underrepresentation of Sign Languages. This can impact their personal, educational, and professional lives, as many people lack knowledge of Sign Language and how to interact with Deaf individuals. Deaf people are confronted with a hearing world who rarely knows their struggles and needs on a daily basis. If more people knew how to sign, Deaf people's lives would get more accessible.

As many countries struggle with a limited number of Sign Language interpreters for a vast number of Deaf people. Often times relay services or technical solutions are under-represented. That is why it is vital that more hearing people learn how to sign. This way they are able to offer better access and inclusion for their fellow Deaf citizens.

Sign Language courses are expensive, not widely available, and online options may not be flexible enough for everyone. Existing language apps rarely offer Sign Languages or have limited, low-quality content.
