Accessibility Audits
Get a clear understanding of your product’s accessibility.
Our audits evaluate your website or app’s accessibility, and provide practical recommendations for improvement.
Our audits assess against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, and the NZ Govt Web Accessibility & Usability Standards.
We don’t provide dense PDF reports. Our audit reports are provided in an clear HTML format that makes it easy to understand and prioritise issues — with screenshots and clear fixes. The issue data can be exported to a spreadsheet to integrate with your existing issue tracking system.
What is an accessibility audit?
An accessibility audit is a thorough review of your website or app to find barriers that may prevent disabled people from using it.
We test your product with the same tools that disabled people use — like screen readers and keyboard navigation — and check it against internationally-recognised accessibility guidelines.
The result? A clear report showing exactly what needs fixing and how to fix it, so you can make your product work for everyone.
