Pricing
Free where machines can check. Fixed prices where humans are needed.
We graded 356 of the W3C's 432 techniques and documented failures for what a machine can settle on its own. It settles 10 of them, and we check those for nothing. The other 346 need a person to finish the job, either because a tool can only find some of the cases or because it cannot see the thing at all. That is what the paid tiers buy, and the price is on this page rather than at the end of a demo.

Want to see the deliverable before paying for it? Read the sample report. It shows three findings in the exact format you will receive, and how to read an audit report annotates it line by line, including which of these rows to check before you go looking for a rule-by-rule table in your own document.
Not sure which tier your site needs? Count the templates, journeys and states first. The page count falls out of that worksheet, rather than being picked at the start and hoped over. It takes an afternoon and it lets you hold two quotes against the same list.
Why free stops where it stops
The free scan is not a teaser. It runs a real browser and it finds real failures, and what it cannot reach is a whole category rather than a longer list of the same thing. Keyboard journeys. Announcement quality. Whether checkout can actually be finished by ear. Those are 118 of the 356 techniques and documented failures we graded, and no amount of scanner improvement gets at them, because a tool does not know what your checkout is. That is the line between free and paid, drawn by what a machine can settle rather than by what we felt like charging for. W3C publishes no detectability ranking of its own, so the grading is ours and the method behind it is public. The paid side is three passes with evidence at every step, so see exactly how we test.

What none of these three tiers buys you
No tier on this page produces a conformance claim for your whole website, and it is worth understanding why, because plenty of people will sell you one. In WCAG, conformance is defined for a web page. Not for a site, not for a template, not for a brand. W3C's evaluation methodology then says in terms that a conformance claim cannot be made for an entire website on the strength of a selected sample of its pages.
We sample. Ten pages at $499, 25 at $1,499, chosen because they are the journeys your customers actually take. So what you receive is a true, evidenced account of those pages, and an extremely good guide to what is wrong with the templates behind them. What it is not is a certificate covering the ten thousand URLs we never opened. That distinction costs us a selling point and it is the one that survives contact with a regulator. If your requirement names a formal evaluation rather than an audit, that is a different engagement with different paperwork, and gap analysis, audit or conformance evaluation sets the three side by side.
The same goes for a badge. There is no such thing as an accessibility certification a vendor can issue that means anything in law, ours included, which is why we do not sell one.
No tier covers how your site behaves on a phone
Every tier on this page is tested on a desktop, and that is a real gap rather than a technicality. The standard counts each layout a responsive page presents at a different screen size as a variation that has to conform on its own, so a template with a genuinely different phone arrangement is a second piece of work we did not do. It matters because of who is on the other end. In WebAIM's tenth screen reader user survey, 91.3% of the people who answered said they use a screen reader on a phone.
Most of what we find is true at every width, and a narrow-screen failure with no desktop equivalent is outside what we looked at. The report header names the browser and screen reader the evaluation ran on, so you can see what the evidence covers without asking, and if your traffic is overwhelmingly mobile, tell us when we confirm scope and we will say honestly whether this is the right thing for you to buy.
No tier includes the fixing, and we do not sell it separately
An audit finds. Your own team or a supplier you choose fixes. That split is deliberate, because a firm paid by the length of the repair job should not be the firm writing the list, and there is no hidden fourth column here where we quote you for the work. It does mean the money you spend on this page is not the whole of what accessibility will cost you. Nobody can quote the repair half without opening your site, so we wrote what remediation costs and how long it takes to let you work out your own number before you talk to a single supplier. There are three jobs behind that sentence rather than two, and find it, fix it, prove it sets out which of them we sell and which one quietly disappears when a single supplier does all three. Once you are holding a findings list, costing your own findings list turns it into a number with the assumptions written on the front.
When those fixes land, the question is whether you need the findings re-checked or a fresh audit of whatever changed underneath them. Retest or new audit is four questions long, it turns on what moved rather than on the date, and one of its answers is that you should not buy anything yet.
The tax credit most owners miss
US small businesses ($1 million or less in gross receipts last year, or 30 or fewer full-time employees) can claim back 50% of what they spend on accessibility between $250 and $10,250 each year, up to $5,000, through the Disabled Access Credit (IRS Form 8826). Audit costs may qualify, which would bring a $499 audit near $375 after the credit, and the fixes your team makes can count too. Run your own numbers in the tax credit calculator, then confirm the answer with your accountant. This is not tax advice, and the word doing the work above is “may”. The statute was written in 1990 and never mentions websites, so whether web work qualifies is a judgement your accountant gets to make and we do not.
Pricing questions
Straight answers on scope, payment, and what each tier includes. If yours is not here, send us the question, and we will answer it straight.
What does the free scan actually check?
It drives a real browser and runs all 90 supported automated rules: 63 WCAG-mapped checks and 27 additional best-practice checks that are reported separately. Missing alt attributes, contrast ratios, unlabeled fields, a page with no declared language. It is also the smaller half of the job by a distance. We graded 356 of the W3C's 432 techniques and documented failures, and by that grading of ours only 10 can be settled by a machine outright while 118 cannot be reached by any tool at all. The 63 WCAG-mapped checks touch 20 of the 55 criteria we audit, which leaves 35 untouched and does not fully settle a criterion merely by touching it. The scan also renders at one desktop width, so nothing about your phone layout is checked, and it sees each page once as it arrives, so nothing behind a login and nothing inside a form's error state is reached. The whole list is written out on the free scan page, and the report names those limits rather than burying them.
How many pages does the free scan cover?
Anything from a single page up to 10, and it is your choice. We start at the address you enter, find more pages from your sitemap and your links, and scan each one in a real browser, so a larger scan takes a couple of minutes. The report link keeps working afterwards. One thing worth knowing before you try it. The scanner only accepts a public address on a standard web port, so a staging site behind an odd port, an internal hostname, or anything running on localhost gets refused rather than scanned.
How does payment work?
You pay as you place the order, by card, on Stripe's own checkout page, which is why no card details are ever entered on this site. We confirm the scope by email the same day, a full refund stands until work starts, and the delivery clock runs from cleared payment rather than from the moment you press the button.
What if my site is bigger than 25 pages?
Almost every site is, and an audit samples your key journeys rather than every URL. On most sites 10 to 25 pages cover the flows that carry the revenue, because the same templates repeat underneath. If the scope is genuinely larger, a portal, an app, a multi-brand estate, email us the site and we will answer with a written number. Still no call, and still a price before you commit. It just is not a price we can publish in advance for work we have not seen.
We have fixed everything. Will you check our work?
That is what the re-audit is for. The same three passes, on the same pages, at half the price you paid, any time within 3 months of your report. Fix, verify, done, with no subscription and nothing to cancel.
Is there really a tax credit for this?
For eligible US small businesses, yes. The Disabled Access Credit on IRS Form 8826 returns 50% of accessibility spending between $250 and $10,250 a year, capped at $5,000. You qualify if either was true last year, gross receipts of $1 million or less, or 30 or fewer full-time employees. Audit costs may qualify, which would bring a $499 audit near $375, and the fixes your team makes can count too. Run your own numbers in our free tax credit calculator, then confirm the answer with your accountant. This is not tax advice, and whether website work counts is genuinely less settled than most people selling it will tell you.
Do you offer refunds?
If we have not started, you get a full refund and we will not ask why. Once the audit is underway we will complete it and deliver it, because real people have started real work by then. And if the delivered report does not match what this page promised, tell us and we will make it right, whether that means re-testing, extending the coverage, or refunding part or all of it.
