How it works
We open your pages in a real browser, test them with axe-core against WCAG 2.2 AA and turn the issues found into a report in plain language. Then we repeat the check every week and show what has changed.
Five stages: from scan to statement draft
Everything runs automatically, with no manual work. It is an automated check, not a full audit, and not legal advice.
-
1
Scan
The service finds pages through your sitemap and internal links within your domain and loads them in Chromium via Playwright. On each page it runs axe-core, an open-source library of accessibility rules. Each page has limits on time, redirects and size, so the check does not put load on your server.

Rule cards
axe-core output is technical and in English. So we match every issue found with a rule card from our library. A card contains:
- the WCAG 2.2 criterion and the EN 301 549 clause it relates to (for Ukrainian projects also DSTU EN 301 549:2022);
- what the issue means for your customers and your business, in plain language;
- severity, so you know what to fix first;
- how to fix it on Shopify, WooCommerce, PrestaShop and Shoptet;
- translations labelled “machine-translated” or “reviewed by a native speaker”.

Report
The report is assembled from the cards automatically. It is available as PDF and HTML, and agencies can send it under their own brand (for agencies).
- a one-page summary: how many critical issues, the three most important ones and what they mean for your customers;
- a trend chart of issues;
- priorities: what to fix first;
- rule cards with example elements and screenshots;
- a developer appendix with selectors.

Weekly monitoring
Sites change: a theme update, a new banner, a new checkout app. Every week we scan the site again and compare the results: new issues, fixed ones and those that remain. If new issues appear after a release, you get an email.

Accessibility information draft
For sites covered by the European Accessibility Act, the service prepares a draft of the accessibility information from your questionnaire. Scan results go only into the “known limitations and remediation plan” part. The draft is for review by your lawyer. See the accessibility statement guide.
What automated checks can find, and what they cannot
By various estimates, automated tools find roughly a third to a half of accessibility issues. That is why we never promise full legal compliance.
Found by the automated check
- insufficient colour contrast of text
- images without an alt attribute
- form fields without labels
- buttons and links without an accessible name
- missing page language
- broken ARIA attributes
- some problems with the heading structure
Needs a manual review
- whether alt text actually describes the image
- whether the focus order makes sense
- whether checkout can be completed with a keyboard only
- working with a screen reader (NVDA, VoiceOver)
- zoom to 200% and reflow
- whether error messages are understandable
- captions and audio description for videos
A manual review can be ordered separately; it is not part of the subscription. The key criteria are listed in our WCAG 2.2 checklist.
Standard and security
-
Which standard we check against
We check against WCAG 2.2 AA. The European standard EN 301 549 V4.1.1, based on WCAG 2.2, was published in September 2026; its publication in the Official Journal of the EU is expected at the end of 2026. Until then, V3.2.1, based on WCAG 2.1, remains the harmonised version. The report shows both references.
-
A safe check
The scanner runs in a separate, isolated environment on servers in the EU and has no access to our database. It only opens public pages, like a regular visitor, and does not change anything on your site.

Frequently asked questions
How many problems does an automated check find?
Only part of them: by various estimates, roughly a third to a half of accessibility issues. The rest is found in a manual review with a keyboard and a screen reader.
How often does the service check my site?
Every week, on a schedule. If new issues appear after a site update, you get an email.
Does the service change anything on my site?
No. The service only opens public pages, like a regular visitor, and does not change or install anything on your site.
