Expert human support for your biggest accessibility challenges

An accessibility audit is a detailed review of your website or application that identifies accessibility issues at a specific point in time. 

An assessment is usually broader and may include an audit along with recommendations, risk analysis, and a plan for achieving compliance.

Continuous monitoring goes a step further — regularly scanning and testing your digital content to catch new issues as they arise.

No automated accessibility solution can detect or fix every accessibility issue. However, they can test for common WCAG violations, including missing alt text, low color contrast, incorrect heading order, and more. It’s important to note that automation-only approaches to accessibility testing can increase your legal risk, as more complex issues or violations can only be identified with expert testing.

Expert accessibility services help organizations interpret and apply complex accessibility standards like the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and Section 508 to their digital content. These accessibility experts conduct in-depth audits, identify compliance gaps, and provide remediation strategies to address them.

Accessibility laws, including the ADA, Section 508, or the Unruh Civil Rights Act (CA), do not explicitly require businesses to conduct accessibility audits.

However, accessibility audits (combined with the expertise of web accessibility consultants or experts) can help find and fix many accessibility issues that negatively affect the user experience for people with disabilities and increase your legal risk.

Accessibility audits should be conducted regularly—at least once per quarter—to keep up with evolving standards and ensure new content meets accessibility requirements. Frequent reviews help catch issues early, reducing legal and usability risks. They also demonstrate good-faith efforts toward compliance, which can build trust with users and regulators.

If you purchase custom fixes, our experts will flag each issue, where it occurs, and which WCAG criteria it violates. For issues we can resolve, our team will write and deploy custom code-based fixes through the AudioEye platform. Any additional issues that need to be fixed by your team will be outlined in the Source Feedback Report with recommendations on how to fix them.

Note: Source Feedback Reports are included in every AudioEye Expert Audit.
