AudioEye (AEYE): The Tiny Company Fixing the Internet

When people think about digital transformation, they usually picture automation, AI, and cloud platforms. But there’s a quieter, more fundamental shift underway — one that touches every website, app, and digital interface in existence.

I’m talking about accessibility.

AudioEye (NASDAQ: AEYE) is a B-rated stock in our Zen Ratings system … and one of the few public companies solving a massive problem: making the internet usable for everyone, including the 1 in 4 adults in the U.S. living with a disability.

Most websites are failing users with disabilities. And it’s only going to get worse as we enter the throes of another major investing theme I’ve written about before: the rapidly aging global population or “silver tsunami.”

According to WebAIM’s 2025 report, 94.8% of homepages have detectable accessibility errors and are failing Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG):

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), that’s not just a bad UX — it’s a legal liability.

Thousands of lawsuits are filed each year over inaccessible websites. Companies from Target (NYSE: TGT) to Domino’s (NASDAQ: DPZ) have already been hit. And with the Department of Justice issuing updated web accessibility guidance, enforcement is only going to ramp up.

That’s where AudioEye steps in … and their model is more interesting than you might think.

Unlike most competitors offering simple accessibility overlays or static audits, AEYE combines machine learning with manual remediation. Think of it as the “Copilot” model: AI handles the heavy lifting, but trained experts step in to catch what the bots miss.

This hybrid system is what makes AEYE defensible:

  • It scales like software, but can adapt to unique or complex sites.
  • It offers recurring revenue from ongoing monitoring and fixes.
  • And once embedded, it becomes deeply integrated into a business’s compliance stack.

There’s also a network effect that’s easy to miss: the more websites AEYE analyzes, the better its AI gets — which improves future coverage and pricing power. This is especially important as more local governments, banks, healthcare providers, and ecommerce platforms face increasing pressure to stay compliant.

To be clear, AEYE is still a small-cap name. But its addressable market is enormous. Accessibility isn’t a trend — it’s becoming a standard, just like mobile-friendliness or secure checkout.

And AEYE is aiming to be the default vendor for that standard. 

That may be why it’s scoring an A for Growth in our system right now. We arrived at this rating by tracking recent sales growth to assess business momentum, projecting earnings growth over the coming year, and analyzing margin potential for improved profitability.

However, I want to be clear that these particular price targets aren’t from top-rated Wall Street analysts. To see these analysts’ rankings/track record and see their AEYE price targets, click here

Bottom line? This is a B-rated SaaS stock with high-margin potential in an overlooked regulatory niche, and currently one of the top 90+% of stocks in the market according to our model. I’m keeping an “eye” on AEYE, as it may become a quasi internet utility or staple in the future.
