Website Accessibility Scanner (WCAG · axe-core)

Audit any website for accessibility issues in minutes. This actor loads your pages in a real Chromium browser, runs axe-core — the same engine used by Lighthouse and most professional audit tools — and returns every WCAG violation it finds, with CSS selectors, HTML snippets, and links to fix guidance.

What you get

One dataset item per audited page:

• violations — each axe rule that failed, with impact level (critical / serious / moderate / minor), the number of affected elements, and up to 10 sample elements with their CSS selector, HTML, and a plain-language failure summary
• violationCount / criticalCount / seriousCount — totals for quick triage and dashboards
• passes — how many checks the page passed
• incomplete (optional) — checks that need human review, for manual audits

What it's for

• Agencies & freelancers — generate the findings for client accessibility audits (European Accessibility Act, ADA, Section 508 work)
• Monitoring — schedule it and diff results to catch regressions after releases
• Lead generation — scan prospect sites and open conversations with concrete findings
• CI-adjacent checks — audit staging or production URLs on a cadence without wiring axe into your build

How it works

Give it one or more start URLs. For each site it audits the start page, then discovers same-site links and audits up to Max pages per site of them — favoring structurally different pages (a product page, a blog post, a contact page) over near-duplicates, so a small page budget still covers your main templates.

Choose the rule set: WCAG 2.1 A+AA (default), A only, or WCAG 2.2 A+AA.

Honest limits

Automated testing finds roughly half of accessibility issues — the machine-checkable half (contrast, missing labels and alt text, ARIA misuse, document structure). It cannot judge whether alt text is meaningful or whether keyboard focus order makes sense. A clean scan is a strong start, not proof of compliance — no automated tool can truthfully promise that.

Pricing

Pay per page scanned. No subscription, no minimum — scan one page or a thousand.
