About A11y Audit

Accessibility compliance, built for the teams on the hook

Public agencies are under a federal deadline. Private teams are under pressure from customers, procurement, and the courts. Almost none of them have a full-time accessibility specialist. A11y Audit is built for exactly those teams.

We believe meeting accessibility standards shouldn't take an enterprise budget — or a specialist on staff.

Why we built it

The usual tools force a hard choice. Free checkers like axe, WAVE, and Lighthouse are genuinely useful for spot-checks, but they reach only a fraction of WCAG, say nothing about your PDFs, and can't prove conformance on their own. Enterprise accessibility platforms do the full job — and are built and priced for large organizations that already employ specialists.

Public agencies fall hardest through that gap. The Department of Justice's ADA Title II rule holds a county with three people in IT to the same standard as a state agency with an accessibility office — and it's already in force for the larger entities. Smaller private teams land in the same spot for different reasons, and both end up asking the same question: where do we even start?

A11y Audit answers that. It crawls your site and finds every page and PDF, runs the automated checks, walks your team through the manual review no tool can do, ranks what to fix first, and produces evidence you can actually hand to someone — every issue tied to a specific WCAG 2.2 Level AA criterion.

What makes A11y Audit different

Serious accessibility compliance, without the enterprise weight.

Honest coverage

No scanner covers all of WCAG, and any tool implying otherwise is selling a green checkmark. A11y Audit evaluates 27 of the 55 Level A and AA criteria in WCAG 2.2 and flags the other 28 as needing dedicated manual testing — published on our own site, before you ask. You get real conformance, not a number that hides the gaps.

Evidence, not assurances

Compliance you can demonstrate. Attestations are cryptographically signed and verifiable by anyone without an account, compliance packets are hash-chained so tampering shows, and every decision is logged against the findings behind it.

Built for teams without a specialist

Fixes are ranked by impact per unit of effort and written for the CMS you actually run, so the next step is always obvious. Enterprise-grade accessibility work without the enterprise price tag or a dedicated specialist on staff.

Who builds it

A11y Audit is built by hauscode.dev (opens in new tab), a small software studio that builds tools for small businesses. Accessibility isn't a feature we bolted on — it's how we work.

This site is held to the same WCAG 2.2 Level AA standard A11y Audit helps you meet, and so is the product itself: every release is gated on an accessibility scan of our own interface. You can read our accessibility statement anytime.
