Public positions - judge for yourself.
Hundreds of accessibility practitioners have publicly cautioned that automated widgets alone cannot make a website conform to WCAG - complex structure, forms and judgment calls require human remediation.
The National Federation of the Blind resolved in 2021 that reliance on automated widget solutions alone does not deliver equal access for blind users.
Industry litigation tracking shows 25%+ of companies sued over web accessibility already had an accessibility widget installed - a widget alone is not a legal strategy.
The three gaps a widget alone cannot close.
The EAA has applied since June 2025, referencing EN 301 549 and WCAG. EqualWeb covers it end to end - AI widget in 100+ languages, certified human remediation, continuous monitoring and the documentation to show your work.
EN 301 549 explicitly covers non-web documents. EqualWeb ships a free PDF checker, AI remediation, an accessible viewer, an API and 16 platform integrations - no widget vendor offers automated PDF tooling.
Automated fixes resolve the mechanical majority - complex tables, forms and judgment calls need people. EqualWeb's in-house IAAP/CPWA-certified experts finish the work and stand behind it with liability & warranty.
A 30-minute walkthrough of the widget, managed compliance, PDF suite and monitoring - with your own site and documents on screen. Free accessibility checks included, no credit card required.
