WCAG 2.2 AA audit
Manual and automated tests of your key templates, each failure mapped to its WCAG criterion.
The Problem
Your Site Looks Fine Until Someone Uses It Without a Mouse
Accessibility problems stay invisible to whoever built the site. They surface when a customer uses a keyboard or screen reader, or when a demand letter arrives.
01 · Demand letters
A demand letter quotes WCAG criteria you don't recognize.
An audit of your most-used templates shows exactly which criteria fail.
02 · Overlay widgets
Your accessibility widget didn't change a line of your theme.
Each failure gets fixed in your theme code, not in a widget.
03 · Keyboard traps
The filter menu traps keyboard users on your product pages.
Testing uses a keyboard, NVDA, and VoiceOver, not only a scanner.
04 · Lost customers
Customers who can't check out simply leave.
Retests confirm each fix before your statement goes live.
A demand letter lands in your inbox, quoting WCAG criteria you don't recognize. Last year you added an accessibility widget because the ad promised compliance. It didn't change a line of your theme. Screen readers still announce "button, button" on your product page, the filter menu traps keyboard users, and sale badges are too pale to read. Customers who can't check out simply leave.
We start with a WCAG 2.2 AA audit of the templates your customers use most: home, collection, product, cart, and forms. We test with a keyboard, NVDA, and VoiceOver, not only a scanner. Then we fix each failure in your theme code, publish your statement, and retest. The fixes stay in your code, not in a widget that disappears when you cancel.
Tested the way customers browse
Keyboard, screen reader, and automated checks on your most visited templates.
Fixes made in your theme
We change the code behind each failure, so nothing depends on an overlay script.
A record you can show
A dated audit, remediation report, and statement that document your good-faith effort.
Our ADA Compliance Process
From First Review to Fixed and Documented in Five Clear Steps
You approve the findings, fix list, and price before any code changes. After launch, you get the retest results and your statement.
We look at your site, your platform, and any demand letter or complaint you've received. If a cheaper standalone audit already covers your case, we'll tell you before we quote.
What's Included
What You Get With Our Website ADA Compliance Services
One engagement covers the audit, code fixes, statement, and retest, so your team isn't coordinating three vendors or turning a report into tickets.
Compare Options
DeveloperLook vs Overlay Widget vs Audit-Only Firm
Most ADA compliance website services follow one of three models. Overlays are cheap and quick, and audit-only firms write thorough reports. Here's where each stops.
| Feature | DeveloperLookBest fit | Overlay widget | Audit-only firm |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | From $1,250, fixed scope | Low monthly fee | Report fee, fixes extra |
| Time to start | Audit within a week | Minutes to install | Often weeks |
| Fixes the code | Yes, in your theme | No, script on top | No, report only |
| Screen reader testing | NVDA and VoiceOver | Not included | Usually included |
| Keyboard and focus | Fixed and retested | Limited script changes | Reported, not fixed |
| Public statement | Written for your site | Generic template | Sometimes, extra cost |
| After theme updates | Retest, 30 days support | Script keeps running | New audit needed |
| What you keep | Fixes in your code | Nothing after cancelling | Your report |

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have built websites and online stores for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Work Culture
Why Website Owners Trust Us With ADA Compliance
Accessibility is easy to fake with a badge and a script. These habits keep our fixes real, tested, and documented on every project.
Tested with real assistive tech
We test every template with a keyboard, NVDA, and VoiceOver. Scanners miss problems customers hit in seconds, like a filter that traps focus.
Code fixes over overlays
We fix the markup, styles, and scripts behind each failure instead of adding a widget. Overlay changes vanish when the script stops, but code fixes stay.
Whole journeys, not single pages
After each fix batch, we retest the paths customers take to buy or contact you. A fix counts only when the whole journey works.
Records your attorney can use
Every audit, fix, and retest is dated in your remediation report. If a complaint arrives, your attorney gets facts, not a vendor's marketing claim.
No promises about lawsuits
We explain what audits and code fixes can and can't do. Nobody can promise you won't get a demand letter, so we don't sell that promise.
Fixed scope, fixed price
You approve a written scope and price after the audit, before code changes. If we find more than expected, you decide what's next.

Good fit
Businesses holding an ADA demand letter
You received a demand letter or complaint and need real fixes underway within weeks, plus records your attorney can use.
Stores paying for an accessibility overlay
You pay monthly for a widget, yet a screen reader still can't reach your filters or your checkout button.
Shopify and WooCommerce store owners
Your theme carries years of apps and custom sections, and nobody has tested them with a keyboard or screen reader.
Teams planning a redesign or new theme
You want your ADA compliant website design checked before development, so contrast, focus, and form errors are right from day one.
Agencies with client sites to fix
Your client asked you to recommend ADA website compliance consultants, and you want a partner who fixes code under your brand.
Not a fit
Audit report only
You only need an audit report for your own developers. Our WCAG Audit Services page covers that at a lower starting price.
Audit already done
You already have an audit and just need the fixes. Our Website Accessibility Remediation service starts from your existing report.
Legal advice needed
You need legal advice or a reply to a demand letter. We're developers, not lawyers, so an attorney should handle that.
Budget under $1,250
Your budget for the whole site is under $1,250. Start with our ADA Website Audit, then fix the highest-risk issues in stages.

If your business serves the public in the US, plan as if it does. The Justice Department's 2022 web guidance says ADA requirements apply to goods and services offered online. The law names no technical standard, but that guidance lists WCAG as a helpful reference for businesses.
Audit it against WCAG 2.2 AA, fix what fails in the code, and retest after changes. An ADA compliant website works by keyboard, screen reader, and zoom, with clear labels and readable contrast. Publish an accessibility statement, then recheck after theme or app updates.
A free scanner can't tell you, because automated tools check only part of the WCAG criteria. Website ADA compliance depends on how people get through your pages. Try this: put your mouse away and buy something using only Tab, Enter, and arrow keys. If you get stuck, you have barriers.
Our compliance plans start at $1,250 for up to 8 templates, covering the audit, code fixes, statement, and retest. Stores with up to 20 templates and third-party apps usually fit the $2,950 plan. Large catalogs and custom front ends start at $5,900, with a fixed quote after a free review.
Most small sites are audited, fixed, and retested in 2 to 3 weeks. Stores with about 20 templates and several apps take 4 to 6 weeks, and large or custom builds take 6 to 10. Contrast fixes move fast. Filters and cart drawers take longest.
No. An overlay adds a script on top of your pages, while the barriers stay in your theme code. In April 2025, the US Federal Trade Commission finalized a $1 million order against an overlay vendor over claims its tool could make any website WCAG compliant. Fixing the code is the dependable route.
Don't ignore it, and call an attorney first, because the letter is a legal matter. On the technical side, start an audit right away so you have dated findings and a fix plan your attorney can use. We don't give legal advice or reply to letters for you.
Yes. Every plan includes a dated remediation report listing each issue, its WCAG criterion, the fix, and the retest result. With your published statement, it shows what you found, what you fixed, and how customers report barriers. It documents effort, but no report decides a legal outcome.
In our audits, product filters, variant swatches, cart drawers, and popups fail most often. Filters and drawers trap keyboard focus, swatches lack text labels, and pale sale badges miss WCAG's 4.5:1 contrast ratio for normal text. Shopify says it tests its own checkout against WCAG, so most problems sit in themes and apps.
Every plan includes 30 days of support after launch, and Compliance Plus includes 90 days. If a theme update or new app breaks one of our fixes in that window, we repair it free. Later, our Accessibility Statement and Monitoring service can retest your site on a schedule.
