Is the accessibility scan really free?

Yes. Five scans a month, no account and no credit card, and you get the same score, letter grade, and violation list a paid scan returns. The counter resets on the 1st. If five a month isn't enough, Starter is $29/month for 100 scans plus daily monitoring that re-scans your pages and emails you when a new violation appears.

What happens when I use up my five free scans?

The scan is refused until the 1st of the next month, when your five reset at no cost — nothing expires and no card is required to keep using the free tier. For visitors without an account the five are counted per browser, per calendar month, so sharing an office, campus, VPN, or mobile-carrier connection with other people does not spend your allowance. Starter's 100 scans a month are counted against the email you pay with instead, so they follow you across devices and across your team.

What does the scanner actually check?

We load your page in a real headless browser and run axe-core against it, the same open-source engine used by Deque and built into browser devtools. That covers WCAG 2.1 A and AA rules — color contrast, missing alt text, form labels, ARIA misuse, heading structure, keyboard focus order, and more.

Does passing this scan mean I'm ADA compliant?

No automated tool can certify ADA compliance. Automated testing reliably catches roughly a third of WCAG issues; the rest need manual review with a keyboard and a screen reader. Treat the scan as the fastest way to find and fix the machine-detectable failures that show up in demand letters first.

How long does a scan take?

Around 33 seconds for a typical site, and up to 39 for a large one — the scanner opens up to 10 of your pages in a real browser and waits for each to finish rendering before testing it, so the results reflect what a visitor sees rather than the initial HTML. Leave the tab open; the report appears in place.

Can I scan a page behind a login or a staging URL?

The free scanner only reaches publicly accessible URLs. Authenticated pages, localhost, and IP-restricted staging environments can't be reached by our crawler. Paid plans support scheduled scans of multiple public pages across a site.

Do you store the pages you scan?

We store the scan result — the URL, score, and violation list — so you can revisit the report at its own link. We don't keep a copy of your page's content or take any action on your site.

How to fix — free sample

Text must have enough contrast against its background to be readable by people with low vision.

Target a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text (18pt+, or 14pt bold).
Use a contrast checker on the foreground and background color pair that failed.
Darken text or lighten the background (or vice versa) until the ratio passes.
Watch out for text over images or gradients — add a solid overlay or text shadow for consistency.

/* Fails: #9ca3af on #ffffff = 2.5:1 */
/* Passes: #4b5563 on #ffffff = 7.0:1 */
.muted-text { color: #4b5563; }
