Why audit accessibility now

Reduce risk, improve UX and Core Web Vitals, enable procurement

Legal and regulatory readiness

Move toward WCAG 2.2 AA with clear evidence, mapped to the laws that matter to you in India and globally. An audit gives you defensible documentation, prioritized fixes, and a plan your compliance and procurement teams can stand behind.

Conversion and Core Web Vitals improvements

Accessible patterns reduce friction for everyone. Better structure, meaningful alt text, keyboard friendly flows, and clean semantics often improve speed, stability, and task completion. Expect fewer drop offs, stronger form completion, and more successful checkouts.

Shared language for design, dev, and content

An audit creates a single source of truth. Designers get component level guidance, developers get repro steps and acceptance criteria, and content teams get style rules for headings, links, and media. Teams move faster because the rules are clear.

Artifacts for procurement and sales

If you sell to enterprise or work with government, buyers will ask for accessibility proof. Audit outputs help you prepare a VPAT or ACR later without guesswork, so deals move forward with fewer last minute blockers.

Faster delivery via prioritization

Not all issues are equal. We score by severity, user impact, and fix complexity, then stack rank the backlog. Quick wins rise first, complex items get clear owners and criteria, and your sprints focus on changes that matter most.

Inclusive brand and market reach

Accessible products build trust. You serve people with disabilities, aging users, and customers on varied devices and networks. That expands reach, supports CSR goals, and strengthens your brand in India and in mature accessibility markets like the USA, Canada, and the UK.

Contact Us Now
Websites and single page apps

Public sites, marketing pages, blogs, SPAs, and micro frontends. We validate navigation, landmarks, headings, focus order, keyboard traps, visible focus, and ARIA usage. We review dynamic content updates, modals, drawers, and route changes for robust announcements.

Authenticated portals and complex dashboards

Customer portals, admin consoles, and role based dashboards. We test login, MFA, pagination, filters, tables, charts, data grids, and status messaging. We confirm accessible names for controls, correct semantics, error handling, and inline validation.

Mobile and hybrid apps

iOS and Android with VoiceOver and TalkBack. We check control labels, hit areas, rotor groups, focus management, reading order, gestures, and contrast. We confirm color usage and motion settings respect system preferences.

Forms and key user journeys

Registration, search, product discovery, checkout, onboarding, help, and submit flows. We test labels, descriptions, required states, errors, helper text, keyboard only paths, timeouts, and recovery. We verify that success messages and next steps are announced.

Media and interactive content

Images, icons, SVGs, carousels, sliders, accordions, tabs, video, and audio. We check alt text quality, captioning, transcripts, audio descriptions, media controls, autoplay rules, and pause or stop options.

Documents and downloads

PDFs and office files like DOCX, XLSX, PPTX. We review tags, reading order, bookmarks, table headers, alt text, color contrast, link purpose, and form fields. Where needed we flag files for remediation or replacement.

Components and design systems

Buttons, links, inputs, menus, tooltips, toasts, alerts, dialogs, date pickers, picklists, steppers, and custom widgets. We assess reusable components in your library, verify patterns against WCAG, and leave guidance your team can apply across products.

Content structure and SEO semantics

Headings, lists, quotes, link text, language attributes, skip links, breadcrumb patterns, and metadata. We help content and SEO teams align structure and meaning so pages remain accessible without losing search performance.

Multilingual and RTL readiness

Language switching, locale attributes, pluralization, date or number formats, input methods, and right to left layouts. We check mirrored UI, reading order, and screen reader output for each language.

3rd party embeds and integrations

Analytics beacons, chat or chatbot widgets, consent managers, video players, maps, iframes, and payment or identity providers. We verify accessible names, focus handling, escape paths, and fallback behavior. We also note procurement risks and mitigation steps.

Performance and resilience

We flag patterns that harm accessibility in the real world such as layout shifts, off screen focus jumps, heavy scripts that block AT, and infinite scroll without accessible pagination. Where possible we tie these to Core Web Vitals and practical fixes.

Environments and assistive tech

Desktop, mobile, and tablet with major browsers. Screen readers like NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, TalkBack. Keyboard only, switch access, magnifiers, and high contrast or reduced motion settings.

Out of scope by default

Kiosks, smart TV apps, VR or AR, and legacy documents with no source files. If you need these, we can scope an add on.

How we audit

A predictable, engineering friendly process that blends manual checks, automated scans, and assistive technology use. Clear evidence. Clear priorities. Clear next steps.

  • Discovery and scoping

    What we do: Align goals, target conformance level, and jurisdictions in scope, including India specific SEBI and IS 17802. Inventory sites, environments, page types, journeys, and third party embeds. Define sample sets that represent real user traffic. What you provide: Access paths, test accounts, staging or production preference, analytics hints for high impact flows. Output: Signed scope, audit plan, and schedule that respects your release calendar.

  • Manual testing

    What we do: Expert reviewers validate tasks and components against WCAG 2.2 AA. We check headings, landmarks, keyboard order, focus visibility, label programmatic ties, ARIA use, error patterns, and dynamic updates in SPAs and portals. How we work: User impact first. We follow real journeys like search, sign in, add to cart, pay, and support. Output: Verified issues with severity and impact notes per journey.

  • Automated scanning

    What we do: Run breadth scans to catch repeatable code issues at scale. De duplicate noise and verify with a human pass so false positives do not flood your backlog. Where it helps: Color contrast checks, missing names, low level semantic patterns, and large template driven pages. Output: Clean list of confirmed items plus patterns to fix in components and templates.

  • Assistive technology testing

    What we do: Validate core flows with NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. Include keyboard only, switch access, magnifiers, and high contrast or reduced motion settings where relevant. Why it matters: Confirms that announcements, focus behavior, and navigation make sense to real users, not just scanners. Output: AT notes, short clips where helpful, and reproducible steps that engineers can follow.

  • Evidence capture

    What we do: Record the proof your team needs to fix fast. Screenshots or clips, DOM or code snippets, AT output, environment details, and exact steps to reproduce and to verify the fix. Output: Issue pack that slots neatly into a Jira or CSV import without hand holding.

  • Prioritization and backlog

    What we do: Score every finding by severity, user impact, and fix complexity. Group duplicates, roll up template issues, and recommend component level fixes for design systems. Output: Sprint ready backlog with now, next, later buckets plus acceptance criteria for each item.

  • Executive readout

    What we do: Walk stakeholders through the risk narrative, quick wins, and the path to conformance. Align owners and timelines. Output: Executive summary, KPI suggestions, and a practical remediation roadmap that your teams can start this sprint.

  • Optional re test and sign off

    What we do: Verify fixes on the agreed scope. Update the workbook, confirm pass criteria, and note any regressions. Output: Re test memo and updated status to support procurement and internal audits.

Understand the audit

Accessibility Audit - Key Questions

These short answers clarify scope, methods, and outcomes so your teams know what to expect. If your platform has unique needs like complex authentication, dynamic data grids, or legacy documents, we tailor the audit to match.

Strengthened Security
  • Quick scan vs full audit
  • SPA and native app coverage
  • Assistive technologies used
  • Prioritization and sprints
  • Mapping to laws and regional rules

What is the difference between a quick scan and a full audit?

A quick scan is a lightweight review that runs automated checks across a representative sample and verifies a subset manually. It is useful for triage, early risk signals, and planning. You get a brief summary of critical issues, an estimate of effort, and guidance on the best next step. It is not a substitute for a full audit when you need reliable compliance evidence.

A full audit combines expert manual testing, assistive technology use, and verified automated scans across agreed page types and journeys. Findings include proofs, repro steps, WCAG mapping, and a prioritized backlog. The full audit is the right choice when you need defensible documentation, clear sprint inputs, and a path to conformance.

👋 Say

You get manual testing, assistive technology checks, verified automated scans, and evidence for every confirmed issue. Deliverables include an executive summary, a detailed findings workbook, and a sprint ready backlog with acceptance criteria.

We test against WCAG 2.2 AA and map results to regional rules. That includes ADA and Section 508 in the USA, EN 301 549 and EAA in the EU and UK, and India specific guidance such as SEBI, IS 17802, and GIGW where applicable.

Yes. We audit single page apps, authenticated portals, and native or hybrid mobile apps. We validate route changes, announcements, focus behavior, keyboard order, gestures, and component patterns like modals, drawers, and tables.

We use NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and TalkBack, plus keyboard only, switch access, magnifiers, and high contrast or reduced motion settings. This confirms real user impact, not only scanner output.

A standard product with a representative sample of templates and flows often takes 2 to 3 weeks from kickoff to readout. Larger portals or multi app estates may need a phased plan. We size timelines during discovery so they fit your sprints.

Test access, sample flows, environments, and any component library references. If your teams use Jira or another tool, we align the backlog format to your workflow so import is smooth.

Each issue is scored by severity, user impact, and fix complexity. We group duplicates and elevate quick wins. The backlog shows now, next, and later so teams can plan delivery with confidence.

Yes. Findings include DOM or code pointers, suggested fixes, and acceptance criteria. For design system components, we add pattern level guidance so improvements scale across the product.

Yes. Our report structure and evidence make VPAT or ACR preparation faster. Many clients use the audit as the primary input for procurement requests.

We align outputs to Indian expectations such as SEBI and IS 17802, and we consider GIGW where relevant for public sector. This helps BFSI and government facing platforms demonstrate readiness while staying aligned with global practice.

No. Audits are non invasive. Many fixes improve structure and semantics, which supports both accessibility and SEO. We also call out patterns that harm performance so your team can improve Core Web Vitals.

Optional retest is available. We verify changes against acceptance criteria, update the workbook, and provide a short memo you can share with stakeholders.

We work under NDA, request only the access we need, and test in staging or behind temporary accounts where possible. We avoid posting sensitive data in evidence and follow your security guidelines.

Pricing depends on scope, number of templates and journeys, and platform complexity. During a short discovery call we size the effort and share a scope based estimate.
