Web accessibility testing involves making your website, mobile applications, and other digital content usable and accessible to as many people as possible. The process ensures that people with visual, auditory, cognitive, or physical impairments can use the site and that it is optimized for assistive technologies such as screen readers. It also ensures that you’re compliant with accessibility standards outlined in the ADA, WCAG 2.0, and more.

The Website Accessibility Checker, our accessibility Scanner, finds existing accessibility issues and shares them in a report. It’s important to note that accessibility tools are a good start to making your digital more accessible but does not make your site entirely accessible or compliant. To achieve maximum accessibility, consider pairing our Digital Accessibility Platform with expert audits from certified accessibility experts.

AudioEye’s free website Accessibility Scanner is a good place to start. The scan checks your site against accessibility standards like the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and finds common WCAG violations, such as low color contrast, missing alt text, or improper heading use. With the results, you’ll have a better understanding of the overall accessibility of your digital content.

No. Accessibility scanning does not make your website compliant — but it does identify accessibility issues that put your organization at risk and help you create a more accessible site.

To comply with the ADA, your site must meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA requirements. Our scanner results show WCAG errors–the most of any provider in the industry–helping you determine whether your site meets legal requirements.

To ensure your site conforms with the standards created by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), it’s critical to know what accessibility errors already exist on your site. Because automation can only fix ~50% of issues, it is critical to utilize a combined approach of technology, expert testing, and custom fixes. 

You can use your scan results to understand where your visitors are experiencing accessibility errors. 

By finding accessibility issues and fixing them — whether directly in your source code or with AudioEye’s combination of automated and custom fixes — you’ll enhance compliance with accessibility laws and create a more accessible, inclusive online experience.

No. While AudioEye integrates with all major CMS platforms, you do not need to set up any integrations or install scripts on your website for the accessibility scan to be completed.
