Accessibility Is Not Optional
In Canada, AODA requires organizations with 50+ employees to meet WCAG 2.0 Level AA. In the EU, EN 301 549 applies to public sector sites and increasingly to private ones. In the US, ADA lawsuits against websites have been filed at a rate of thousands per year. Beyond the legal exposure, an inaccessible website excludes roughly 15% of the population — people with visual, motor, cognitive, or hearing disabilities who deserve to use your product.
What We Audit
We run both automated and manual accessibility testing. Automated tools (axe-core, WAVE, Lighthouse) catch roughly 30–40% of accessibility issues — the mechanical ones. The rest require a human tester: keyboard navigation flows, screen reader compatibility (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver), cognitive load assessment, and focus management in interactive components.
Our audit covers: perceivable content (alt text, captions, colour contrast, text resize), operable interfaces (keyboard access, focus indicators, no seizure triggers), understandable content (clear language, predictable navigation, error messages), and robust markup (valid HTML, ARIA usage, assistive technology compatibility).
Remediation
We do not just hand you a spreadsheet of problems. We fix them. Every audit we deliver includes a prioritized remediation plan and we can execute it — whether that means patching your existing code or rebuilding the problematic components from scratch.
