Digital accessibility
A site, an application and documents people can actually use.
from $25 per audited page · from $605 per conformance report.
How does your site's accessibility usually begin?
With a letter. From a lawyer. From a client with a questionnaire. From a procurement office that needs a conformance report. Or from your own customer who could not place an order. Before that letter nobody thinks about accessibility, and after it there is a week to do everything.
You will have something to answer that letter with
You get a list of fixes: every finding has a page address, a screenshot and the line of code to change. We build it by hand — going through the site or the application with a keyboard, a screen reader and magnification.
Then we take on whatever is being asked of you specifically. Contracts and manuals are tagged to PDF/UA. The conformance report is filled in when procurement requires it. The check goes into the build when the same errors come back with every release.
Whatever you take, what you are left holding is a result, not advice: a report with addresses and lines of code, files a screen reader can read, a document for procurement.

Questions
We have had a letter from a lawyer. Where do we start?
With an audit of the key pages: home, catalogue, order form, payment. It shows exactly what does not work and in what order to fix it. With that list you can already reply — to the lawyer and to your own developer.
Does an accessibility widget on the site settle the matter?
No. A panel with contrast and font buttons lives on top of the page and changes nothing inside it: the screen reader reads exactly what it read before. What is required is accessibility of the site itself, so the site is what has to be fixed, not the panel above it.
Our site is built by a contractor. Who do you give the report to?
To them. The report is written for a developer: page address, criterion number, line of code and what to write instead. All you have to do is pass the file on and order a re-check two weeks later.
How long does an audit take?
Key pages take about two weeks from the moment we have access: a week going through by hand, a few days for the report and the walkthrough. Documents and the conformance report are counted separately: their timing depends on volume.
Give us the site address and what is being asked of you — an audit, documents or a report for procurement — and we will send a quote by email.
We have your request
We answer during the hours listed in the contacts at the foot of the page. The quote and the conversation come first — nothing is signed and nothing is charged.
