Accessibility Testing in Santo André, Brazil, Done by Hand
Audits for Santo André against the standard that actually binds you in Brazil.
The short answer for Santo André
Roughly 782,000 people live in Santo André. Which accessibility rule reaches your website here is not decided at city level, though, and no council in Brazil writes its own web standard. Brazil's Inclusion Law has required accessible websites since 2016, measured against eMAG and the ABNT NBR 17225 standard, both aligned with WCAG. Enforcement runs through public civil actions and consumer protection rather than a web regulator.
Public bodies are covered at federal, state and municipal level, so the state government here carries the duty as squarely as Brasília does, and eMAG is the technical reference the federal side works to.
So here is what we do about it. We work your Santo André site against all 55 WCAG 2.2 A and AA rules by hand, then a professional blind screen-reader user runs your real journeys while we record where they stop. WCAG 2.2 covers everything the standard above asks for and more, so one audit answers it with room to spare. Every finding arrives with its screenshot and the fix that closes it.

Inside an audit for a site in Santo André
Start with the honest part. The audit is the same in Santo André as it is anywhere, because WCAG does not change at a border. What changes is which law is watching and what it costs to fail, and the section above settles that.
The work itself runs in three passes. A machine finds the failures a machine can prove. A human works every one of the 55 A and AA rules by hand. Then a professional blind screen-reader user opens your real journeys and tries to finish them, the way your customers would. Every finding arrives with its screenshot and the fix that closes it, drawn from our free library of 432 guides.
None of the reference sits behind a form, either. Every number below counts pages you can go and read right now, free, whether you ever buy an audit or not.

The honest limit
And an audit is evidence, not a legal opinion. We tell you what fails, who it stops, and what closes it. Whether that satisfies a regulator or a court in Santo André is a question for your lawyer, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise.
Straight answers for Santo André
My site is in Santo André. Does that change what you test?
No. WCAG is the same standard everywhere, so the testing is identical wherever you are. What changes is which law is watching and what failing it costs, and that is what the law section on this page settles.
What law am I actually answering to in Santo André?
Brazil LBI is the one that reach Santo André first, and each has its own page here covering what it asks for, who it lands on, and how it gets enforced. Sell into more than one market and more than one of them can reach you at the same time.
Should I be publishing an accessibility statement here?
No law that reaches Santo André names one in our library, so nothing forces you to publish a statement. You can still publish one anyway, and our free generator will write it from what the audit found.
What am I paying, and what turnaround do I get?
A Rapid Audit is $499 for 10 pages, with the report in 5 business days. A Standard Audit is $1,499 for 25 pages in 10 business days. Once your team has fixed things, the re-audit is half price within 3 months.
Who does the human half of the testing?
Yes, on every audit. A professional blind screen-reader user opens your real journeys and tries to finish them, and we write down where they stop. That is the pass no scanner can run.
