Accessibility Audit

You can't fix barriers you haven't found, so we begin by testing your site the way people with disabilities actually use it. Automated scanners catch only about a third of issues, which is why we pair them with manual testing, real keyboard navigation, and screen reader checks to find what software misses. You get a clear report of every barrier, ranked by severity and tied to the specific WCAG criterion it fails, so remediation becomes a worklist instead of a guessing game.

WCAG 2.2 AA Remediation

WCAG defines what an accessible site looks like, and version 2.2, published in 2023, is the current one. Most US regulations and legal settlements still reference 2.1 Level AA as the baseline, and because 2.2 builds directly on 2.1, meeting 2.2 AA covers both. We remediate against that standard, fixing the markup, structure, and interactions that create barriers, working alongside your developers or handling the code ourselves. One thing worth saying plainly: no overlay widget or accessibility plugin makes a site compliant, whatever the ads promise, and regulators have made that clear. Real accessibility lives in the code.

Screen Reader Optimization

For blind and low-vision users, the screen reader is the website. We make sure yours reads in a sensible order, that images carry meaningful alt text, that buttons and links say what they actually do, and that custom components like dropdowns and modals announce themselves correctly through ARIA. We test with the screen readers people really use, including NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver, because passing an automated check and being usable by an actual person are two different things.

Color Contrast & Typography

A surprising share of accessibility problems are visual and simple to prevent. Text that's too light against its background, link colors that blend into body copy, and type that shrinks past readable all shut people out, and they cost you conversions from everyone squinting at a phone in daylight. We bring contrast ratios up to WCAG thresholds, make sure color is never the only thing carrying meaning, and keep type readable and resizable. This is also the point where brand and accessibility have to get along, and we make sure they do without flattening your design.

Form & Navigation Accessibility

Forms and menus are where accessible design gets tested hardest, because they're interactive and unforgiving. We make sure every field has a proper label, that errors get announced and explained rather than just flashed in red, and that someone can complete a checkout or contact form using nothing but a keyboard. Navigation gets the same care, with logical focus order, visible focus states, and skip links so keyboard users aren't tabbing through your entire menu on every page. If a customer can't check out without a mouse, you don't have a checkout problem, you have a revenue problem.

Ongoing Accessibility Monitoring

Accessibility isn't a certificate you earn once and frame. Every new product, page, and plugin is a chance to introduce a fresh barrier, which is why a site that passed last year often doesn't today. We set up ongoing monitoring to catch regressions as they appear and fold accessibility checks into how your site gets updated, so compliance holds steady instead of quietly eroding between audits.

Accessibility Statement & Policy

A public accessibility statement does more work than people expect. It tells users which standard you meet and how to reach you if they hit a barrier, and it demonstrates good faith if your compliance is ever questioned. We help you publish an honest, specific statement rather than copied boilerplate, and pair it with internal practices so the commitment behind it is real.
