Accessibility & Compliance

1 in 4 adults has a disability. ADA lawsuits are at record highs. The European Accessibility Act takes effect in 2025. Accessibility isn't optional — it's a business requirement.

Why Now

The Legal Landscape Is Changing

Accessibility compliance is no longer a nice-to-have. Regulation and enforcement are accelerating globally.

ADA lawsuits hit record highs

Over 4,000 ADA web accessibility lawsuits were filed in 2023 alone. The trend is accelerating, not slowing.

European Accessibility Act (June 2025)

The EAA requires digital products and services to meet accessibility standards. Non-compliance means losing access to the EU market.

DOJ confirms: websites are covered

The Department of Justice has repeatedly affirmed that the ADA applies to websites. There is no exemption for small businesses.

What's Included

Audit. Fix. Monitor. Repeat.

Accessibility is ongoing — your site changes every month, and so do the standards. We handle it continuously.

Accessibility Audits

Comprehensive WCAG 2.1 AA evaluation — automated scanning plus manual testing with screen readers, keyboard navigation, and assistive technology.

Remediation & Fixes

Systematic fix implementation prioritized by severity and user impact. We don't just report issues — we fix them as part of your subscription.

Ongoing Monitoring

Continuous accessibility scanning as your site changes. New pages, content updates, and plugin changes are automatically checked for regressions.

Keyboard & Screen Reader

Full keyboard navigation testing, focus management, ARIA implementation, screen reader compatibility, and skip navigation links.

Accessibility Statements

VPAT documentation, accessibility policy pages, and conformance statements. The documentation your legal team needs.

ADA & Legal Compliance

Align your site with ADA, Section 508, EAA (European Accessibility Act), and AODA requirements. Proactive compliance reduces legal exposure.

Beyond Compliance

Accessibility Is Good Business

Accessible sites aren't just legally compliant — they're better for everyone. Better SEO (search engines are screen readers), better mobile UX, faster load times, and access to the $490 billion disability market.

WCAG-compliant sites rank higher — proper headings, alt text, and semantic HTML are SEO fundamentals
Keyboard navigation improves UX for power users, not just assistive technology users
Color contrast requirements make content more readable for everyone, including mobile users in sunlight
15-20% of the population has a disability — that's customers you're currently excluding
Government and enterprise contracts increasingly require VPAT documentation
Proactive compliance costs a fraction of reactive lawsuit settlement
