Introducing the Web Accessibility Checker, a real-time web accessibility testing tool that validates ADA and WCAG 2.2 compliance by scanning one page at a time. Use the EqualWeb Checker on your Google Chrome browser for unlimited scans to identify accessibility errors FREE.
This powerful tool is your first step towards achieving web accessibility. Gain immediate insights into the accessibility and compliance levels of your website, allowing you to determine the extent of remediation required and the gap between your current status and ADA and WCAG requirements. Start your web accessibility journey today with the EqualWeb Google Chrome Checker and bridge the accessibility gap effortlessly.
The EqualWeb Google Chrome Checker is a free automated auditing tool for WCAG 2.2 conformance.
The Checker analyzes the website and provides an instant visual guide about accessibility issues, which includes: the number of general errors, contrast errors, notices, warnings, aria attributes, role attributes, a summary, and a checklist of the elements on the page that require fixing and those that do not.
Working as an extra feature on your browser, the Checker is often used to find errors that are not visible to the naked eye (e.g., too small fonts) or hard-to-find visual cues (e.g., borders around dropdown menus). Further, it assists webmasters to provide a better user experience to everyone using their websites.
The EqualWeb Checker also functions as a comprehensive web accessibility evaluation tool, empowering users to analyze their websites for accessibility barriers efficiently. It evaluates pages against global standards like WCAG 2.2 and ADA, providing actionable insights to help improve accessibility for all users, including those with disabilities. By using this evaluation tool, developers and site owners can address compliance gaps and enhance their site’s inclusivity and user experience.
This evaluation tool provides detailed insights into accessibility errors, such as contrast issues, missing ARIA attributes, and structural inconsistencies. By pinpointing these errors, it enables developers to make precise adjustments and prioritize improvements. With a focus on simplicity, the tool ensures that even those new to accessibility testing can use it effectively to enhance their websites.

Automated testing helps websites meet ADA standards. Auditing your websites for accessibility is important if you want to comply with the law and have a website that`s accessible to everyone. A good way to get started is to audit your website for accessibility errors with EqualWeb`s Accessibility Checker.
EqualWeb helps web developers ensure their websites meet the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements with our free Web Accessibility Checker Chrome extension tool.
The Checker detects issues that discriminate against users with disabilities, so you can improve your customer`s experience while remaining compliant with federal law.
For full ADA compliance, you will need EqualWeb`s powerful technological accessibility widget as well as our manual services (under the Managed plan), offered on our Pricing page.
Our EqualWeb Accessibility Checker, however, is a great solution to run quick tests on your website at any time and discover what errors require fixing.
