Happy #ValentinesDay! Ever spotted Whatsapp's hidden love note?💌 Its default background shows the #ASL sign for "I love you” 🤟 A signal of inclusion to remind us every user matters. Representation sparks awareness. Love is about connection. #Accessibility should be too. DM us for ASL #SignLanguage
A smartphone screen displays a WhatsApp message reading "Happy Valentine's Day!" next to a prompt asking, "Have you spotted WhatsApp’s secret message?" with the AI British Sign Language company logo.A screenshot of the WhatsApp chat background and text which says "Its default background includes the American Sign Language for 'I love you'. The AI British Sign Language company logo is underneath. Four circles stacked vertically. 
The top three show the fingerspelling of the letters 'I', 'L', and 'Y' in American Sign Language (ASL). 
The bottom circle shows how the 'I', 'L' and 'Y' signs are combined into one to create the phrase 'I love you'. 
The AI British Sign Language company logo is underneath. 
A promotional image which says "Looking to make your text, audio, or video resources accessible in ASL or BSL? DM us to explore how AI-powered translation can help. Happy Valentine's Day!"
There is a graphic of an envelope sealed with a heart.

Imagine making your digital & print resources accessible in sign language without increasing operational overhead. For learning, DEI, & customer engagement teams this isn’t just "nice to have", it: - Reduces accessibility gaps - Enhances engagement/supports autonomy - Builds trust/connection 🔗👇
The AI British Sign Language logo is at the top of the image. Underneath is a laptop with text on the screen that says "Join our webinar! Thursday 12th February 2026, 09:30 - 10:15 (GMT)". Arrows point from the laptop to three bubbles with questions in them: Why can't English text replace BSL/ASL?; How does AI handle the complexities of BSL/ASL?; What services are available if I want to add AI BSL or ASL to my resources and events?
