Web Accessibility Audit

Web Accessibility Audit is an actor that ensures compliance with the European Accessibility Act by detecting WCAG standard violations.

Motivation

In 2025, compliance with the European Accessibility Act (EAA) becomes mandatory for businesses operating in the EU. This legislation emphasizes the importance of inclusivity, requiring websites and digital services to meet strict accessibility standards outlined in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Non-compliance can result in significant penalties, reputational damage, and loss of customers who rely on accessible digital experiences. Ensuring compliance is not just a legal obligation—it's a commitment to providing equitable access for all users, including those with disabilities.

Solution

We leverage @axe/core, a widely trusted accessibility testing tool, to detect WCAG standard violations with precision and reliability. This allows us to provide accurate assessments and actionable insights, helping you address accessibility issues effectively and meet EAA requirements.
