Website Accessibility Audits
What we've learned so far
Accessibility work has two returns. One is that more people can buy from you, which matters more than most teams assume. The other is that it has become a commercial requirement: enterprise and public sector buyers now ask for conformance documentation during vendor selection and renewal, so an audit report is increasingly something you need in order to sell, not just to comply.
The legal position has changed from theoretical to active. The European Accessibility Act has been enforceable since June 2025, member states began supervising in earnest through 2026, the first lawsuits were filed in France, and a German retailer was fined six figures over checkout failures. Penalties range from around 60,000 euros in Ireland to roughly 900,000 in Sweden, and the exposure applies to any business selling into the EU regardless of where it is based. An accessibility statement that claims conformance while checkout cannot be completed with a keyboard is itself a risk.
Automated scanning is now free and instant, which is why it is not the service. The European Commission has confirmed that no automated tool covers all of WCAG 2.1 AA, and the failures that actually block people, a modal that traps focus, an error announced in a way nobody hears, a checkout that cannot be finished without a mouse, need a person testing with the assistive technology real users rely on. We combine both, report against WCAG and EN 301 549, and give you an ordered remediation plan tied to the journeys that carry revenue and legal exposure, rather than a list of four hundred violations that gets shelved. Sites also change weekly, so we tell you what to re-check rather than pretending an audit is permanent.

How we work
Establish what applies to you
Which standard, which conformance level, and whether the European Accessibility Act covers your product. The obligation differs by sector, company size and what you sell.
Test with assistive technology
Screen readers, keyboard-only navigation and magnification on the real product. Automated tools catch roughly a third of issues and miss most of the ones that actually stop someone.
Work through the journeys that matter
Buying, signing up, getting support. A product can pass a page-level check and still be impossible to complete a purchase on.
Rank by who it blocks
Issues sorted by whether they stop a task or merely make it harder, so the first week of remediation removes the barriers rather than the easy wins.
Set out what to fix and how
Findings with the code-level cause and the remedy, plus what to retest afterwards, so your developers can act without a translator.
Where this isn't the right fit
If you need a formal conformance certificate for a regulator or a tender, that requires an accredited assessor. We are not an accredited assessor. We will tell you what to fix and we can fix it, but we do not issue the paperwork.
If the product is being rebuilt shortly, audit the new one. Accessibility is far cheaper designed in than retrofitted, and paying to document problems you are about to delete is money spent twice. And if you want a report to hold rather than changes to ship, an automated scan costs almost nothing and will give you that. It will not make the product usable, but it will produce a document.
