Frequently Asked Questions

Is the accessibility checker really free?

Yes. You can scan any URL as many times as you want with no signup, no credit card, and no usage limits. Our free scanner runs the same engine as our paid plans.

What standard does it check against?

WCAG 2.1 Level AA — the same standard referenced by the ADA, Section 508, the European Accessibility Act, and the DOJ's Title II rule. This is the globally accepted benchmark for web accessibility.

Can automated tools catch all accessibility issues?

No. Automated tools typically catch 30-40% of WCAG issues (the easily detectable ones like missing alt text, contrast failures, and missing labels). Manual testing with screen readers and keyboard navigation is needed for complete coverage. However, automated scanning catches the violations most commonly cited in lawsuits.

Is this an accessibility overlay or widget?

No. RatedWithAI is a scanner and reporting tool — it analyzes your website and tells you what to fix. We do not inject any overlay, widget, or JavaScript into your site. Overlays have been shown to increase lawsuit risk and have been fined $1M for deceptive compliance claims.

What do I do after I get my results?

Start with the critical and serious violations — these carry the most legal risk. Each violation includes a plain-language description and fix instructions. For ongoing protection, our paid plans offer scheduled monitoring, email alerts, and compliance documentation.

Does this work for mobile apps?

Currently, our scanner works with websites and web applications. Mobile app accessibility testing requires different tools (like Accessibility Scanner for Android or Accessibility Inspector for iOS).
