Make your website easier for more people to use.
Free tools and practical guidance for website accessibility, WCAG-informed improvements, mobile usability, keyboard testing, forms, content, and responsible remediation planning.
The free scan is an engineering starting point, not a legal opinion or a guarantee of ADA compliance. Strong accessibility work combines automation with human review.
Start with evidence
Use a free automated readiness scan to find detectable issues, then connect each finding to the page and task it affects.
Test how people use it
Follow important tasks with a keyboard, zoom, touch, screen reader, and real mobile device—not just a desktop screenshot.
Improve mobile access
Responsive layout is the foundation. Readability, focus, forms, errors, motion, and touch behavior complete the experience.
Document responsibly
Describe what was tested, what remains unknown, and how people can report a barrier without claiming an automated score is legal certification.
A practical method
Accessibility is a process, not a badge.
A useful accessibility program begins with the pages and tasks people actually need: finding hours, calling, requesting a quote, booking, ordering, checking out, reading essential information, or managing an account.
Automated tools help identify repeatable patterns such as missing image alternatives, unlabeled fields, weak structure, and viewport problems. They do not replace keyboard review, zoom testing, screen-reader testing, real devices, or feedback from people who use assistive technology.
Use the resources below to find the right starting point, make a focused change, and retest the same task. That creates a clearer record of progress than chasing a perfect score detached from the people using the site.
Free follow-up checklist
After the scan, test these tasks
- Press Tab through the page and confirm focus is visible and predictable.
- Zoom to 200% or increase text size and check that content remains usable.
- Submit forms with missing and invalid information and review the error path.
- Use a screen reader to navigate headings, landmarks, links, and form controls.
- Complete the main mobile task on a real phone with a slower connection.
- Give visitors an easy way to report an accessibility barrier.
