Accessibility audit, testing & validation
Know where you stand. Fix what matters. Validate with confidence. A structured, standards-based assessment of your websites, applications and documents - without committing to full code remediation. Your team fixes; we test, guide and validate.
The entire process runs on the dedicated EqualWeb audit platform - your dev team shares issues, marks fixes, adds notes and comments, and manages the full audit in one clear, intuitive system, with export to Excel anytime.
Three complexity levels. One clear price.

Audit first. Remediate smarter.
Many accessibility projects start without a clear picture of the problem - and end in wasted development time, inconsistent fixes and unresolved gaps. EqualWeb's audit-first approach gives your team a practical roadmap instead: where the barriers are, what impact they have on users, which WCAG requirement each one maps to, and how to resolve them efficiently.
No guessing. Your team receives a structured, prioritized, documented path forward.
Testing standards: W3C WCAG 2.2 · W3C WAI - evaluating web accessibility · Directive (EU) 2019/882 (EAA)
Tested by experts, not just tools
Manual expert review
Automated tools cannot detect every accessibility issue. Certified professionals review real user behavior - keyboard interaction, focus order, forms, visual design and complex user journeys. Essential for applications, portals, login areas, calculators and dashboards.
Assistive technology testing
A site can look accessible and still block users who rely on assistive technologies. We test with keyboard-only navigation and screen reader-oriented workflows to uncover the practical barriers automated tools miss - how real users actually experience the interface.
AI-assisted, expert-validated
AI accelerates parts of the review - issue detection, document analysis, remediation guidance. It never replaces expert judgment: every output is reviewed and validated by accessibility professionals before delivery.
Everything runs in the dedicated EqualWeb audit platform
No scattered email threads. The full audit lifecycle is managed inside a dedicated EqualWeb audit platform built for this exact workflow: your development team works together in one place - sharing issues between team members, assigning owners, marking what has been fixed, adding notes and comments on every finding, and managing the entire audit process in a clear, intuitive system. Every finding carries its severity, WCAG mapping and recommended fix; our experts update retest and validation outcomes in the same view your product, development, QA, legal and compliance teams share. Need it outside the platform? Export the full audit to an Excel file at any time.
- What the issue is, where it appears, and which WCAG requirement it relates to
- How severe it is and what user impact it creates
- Share issues across your dev team, assign owners, and mark fixes as done
- Add notes and comments on every finding, right where the work happens
- Whether the issue was resolved after retesting - validated by our experts
- One-click export of the full audit to an Excel (XLSX) file
Independent validation of your fixes
Prefer to remediate in-house? EqualWeb acts as the independent validation layer. After your developers complete the fixes, we retest, confirm what was resolved, flag what remains, and document the outcome - stronger evidence, lower risk of incomplete remediation.
Ongoing accessibility monitoring
Accessibility is not static. New content, features, CMS changes and third-party components introduce new issues over time. Ongoing monitoring keeps accessibility status visible across your digital assets - continuous governance, not a one-time project.
Who does the fixing - your team, or ours?
Both paths run on the same platform, the same certified experts and the same testing methodology. The difference is who remediates.
Accessibility Audit - this service
We audit, test, prioritize, guide and validate. Your development team fixes the code. Best when you have in-house developers and want expert eyes plus independent proof.
Managed Compliance - the full service
Everything in the audit, plus our certified IAAP/CPWA experts do the remediation for you - client-side code fixes, continuous monitoring, a signed Accessibility Compliance Certificate, a VPAT report and litigation support.

Many organizations start with the audit and upgrade to full remediation once the scope is clear - the findings carry over, nothing is repeated.
Who this service is for
Government and public-sector organizations, financial institutions, enterprise websites and applications, teams preparing for compliance deadlines, legal and compliance teams that need documentation, and product or QA teams integrating accessibility into release workflows - anywhere an internal development team owns the code.
What this service is not
This is not a widget-only quick fix, and it does not include code remediation. It is professional accessibility assessment: testing, issue documentation, remediation guidance, retesting, validation and compliance support. Need the fixing done for you as well? That is our full Managed Compliance service - code remediation, certification and litigation support included. PDF and document remediation can be scoped separately.
