What does the scanner check?

15 automated WCAG 2.1 AA rules: image alt text, form labels, link and button text, page title, language attribute, viewport meta, heading structure, iframe titles, table headers, duplicate IDs, ARIA hidden elements still focusable, text colour contrast, and links opening in new windows without warning.

Yes. No signup, no account, no email required. Paste any public URL and get an instant grade with detailed findings.

How accurate is the automated check?

Automated checks catch roughly 30-40% of accessibility issues. The remaining 60-70% require human judgement: keyboard navigation testing, screen reader flow, and content review.

Does the scanner store the pages I check?

The page is fetched server-side through our Cloudflare proxy, analysed in your browser, and discarded. We store nothing about the page itself and set no cookies. The one thing we keep is a salted hash of your IP address, so a single script cannot use up the check for everyone else; it expires after two hours.

Which platforms does it work on?

Any website — WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Wix, Squarespace, Drupal, Joomla, Next.js, hand-written HTML.

Can I scan a password-protected or local site?

No — the scanner fetches pages over the public internet. For staging or local sites, use the browser extension or WordPress plugin.
