What we check
10 WCAG-inspired checks
Every scan runs the same checklist of the barriers that most often exclude users with disabilities — mapped to WCAG 2.1 success criteria.
Image alt text
Critical · WCAG 1.1.1 (A)Every meaningful image needs descriptive alt text; decorative images need empty alt.
Color contrast
Critical · WCAG 1.4.3 (AA)Text must contrast enough against its background to be readable (4.5:1 for body text).
Form labels
Critical · WCAG 1.3.1 / 3.3.2 (A)Every form control needs a programmatically associated label.
Keyboard navigation indicators
Serious · WCAG 2.4.7 (AA)Interactive elements must show a visible focus indicator for keyboard users.
Heading hierarchy
Serious · WCAG 1.3.1 (A)Headings should form a logical outline with a single h1 and no skipped levels.
ARIA attributes
Serious · WCAG 4.1.2 (A)ARIA roles and attributes must be valid and used only where native HTML can't.
Link text
Serious · WCAG 2.4.4 (A)Link text should describe its destination out of context.
Page title
Moderate · WCAG 2.4.2 (A)Each page needs a unique, descriptive <title>.
Language attribute
Moderate · WCAG 3.1.1 (A)The <html> element must declare the page language.
Accessibility metadata
Moderate · WCAG 1.3.1 / 1.4.4 (A/AA)Landmarks, a skip link, and a zoom-friendly viewport aid assistive tech and low-vision users.
Why it matters
Accessibility is good for people and for business
An inclusive site is easier to use, ranks better, and protects you legally. Here's why it's worth fixing.
Reach more customers
Around 1 in 6 people live with a disability. An accessible site works for screen readers, keyboard users, and everyone on the move.
Reduce legal risk
ADA, Section 508, and EN 301 549 increasingly expect WCAG 2.1 AA. Proactive fixes are far cheaper than a demand letter.
Better SEO & UX
Semantic headings, alt text, and clear labels help Google and AI search understand your pages — and help every visitor convert.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does the accessibility checker test?
It runs 10 checks mapped to WCAG 2.1 success criteria: image alt text, heading hierarchy, form labels, ARIA attributes, color contrast, keyboard focus indicators, page title, link text, the HTML language attribute, and accessibility metadata such as landmarks and a skip link.
Is this a full WCAG 2.1 AA compliance audit?
It's a fast, WCAG-inspired starting point that surfaces the issues that most often exclude users. A complete conformance audit also needs manual testing with real assistive technology — which our engineers can perform as a follow-up.
Why does website accessibility matter for my business?
Accessibility widens your potential audience, reduces legal exposure under ADA/Section 508/EN 301 549, and improves SEO and conversions because the same semantic structure that helps assistive tech also helps search engines and users.
Is the accessibility checker free?
Yes. The tool is completely free, needs no sign-up, and returns a full report with an accessibility score and priority fixes in seconds.
Do you store the results of my scan?
No. Results are generated for your session only and are not saved to any database. You can run as many checks as you like.
