Website Accessibility Audit
2 credits / call (4 on the free plan)A URL → grounded WCAG-flavoured findings, honestly scoped.
Deterministic accessibility checks over the rendered page — missing alt text, unlabelled forms, blocked zoom, nameless buttons and more — each tied to the WCAG criterion it concerns. Built for the European Accessibility Act era: honest diagnosis, never a compliance badge.
The European Accessibility Act is now enforced — court orders and daily fines have started — and most SME sites have never been checked. This endpoint runs deterministic, WCAG-referenced checks over the rendered page (missing alt text, unlabelled forms, blocked zoom, nameless buttons and more) and returns countable, explainable findings. The honesty is deliberate: automated checks catch a minority of issues, every response says so, and we never sell a compliance badge — the approach regulators have fined others for faking.
what you’d build with it
Agency client audits
Run every client site monthly; each finding is a ready-made conversation (and the EAA makes it a timely one).
CI guardrails
Fail a deploy preview when the marketing site ships alt-less images or a zoom-blocking viewport tag.
Vendor pre-checks
Procurement screens supplier sites for accessibility posture before contracts — honestly scoped, never a fake badge.

Why developers pick it
Honest by design
Automated checks catch a minority of WCAG issues, and we say so on every response. We diagnose real problems; we never sell a compliance badge — the approach regulators have fined others for faking.
Deterministic, explainable findings
No AI in the fact path: every finding is countable in the fetched HTML, tied to its WCAG criterion, with a plain-English why. Same input, same output.
Renders JavaScript sites
Audits the rendered page, not just raw HTML — so single-page apps and modern site builders get checked fairly.
Screen a whole client list
Agencies and consultancies run it across every client site to find who needs accessibility work — each finding is a ready-made conversation.
