How it works

From install to published statement in three steps.

Useful whether you fix issues yourself or hand the report to your developer.

  1. Install & scan

    Add the app and run a full WCAG 2.2 AA scan of your live storefront in minutes — no code changes, nothing added to your theme.

  2. Review issues by rule

    See each failure grouped by rule, the exact elements involved, and clear guidance you or your developer can act on.

  3. Publish & monitor

    Publish your statement in four languages, then get an email whenever a change introduces a new issue on your store.

What it does

Four things it does. None of them fake it.

Everything is about finding and documenting real issues — never masking them.

  • Scan against WCAG 2.2 AA

    A full audit of your live storefront against the standard behind the EAA, ADA, and AODA.

  • Issues grouped by rule

    Each failure with the affected elements and links to fix guidance for you or your developer.

  • Continuous monitoring

    We re-check after changes and email you the moment a new issue appears on your store.

  • Publishable statement

    Generate an accessibility statement in English, French, Dutch, and German as your audit trail.

The report

Every issue, grouped by rule.

Select a rule to expand the affected elements and a link to fix guidance.

RULEIMPACTCOUNT
  • Text and its background must have a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 (3:1 for large text). These nodes fall below that threshold.

Why not an overlay

An overlay hides the problem. We surface it.

The difference matters legally — and for the people actually trying to use your store.

Accessibility overlay / widget
  • Injects a script that masks issues at runtime — the underlying code stays broken.
  • Can conflict with real assistive technology, making things worse for some users.
  • Marketed as "instant compliance" — a claim that has drawn lawsuits, not stopped them.
  • Leaves no record of what was actually wrong or fixed.
AccessProof
  • Scans the real storefront and reports genuine WCAG 2.2 AA issues by rule.
  • Changes nothing on your live site — you or your developer fix the source.
  • Honest framing: find, monitor, and document — no "instant compliance" promises.
  • Generates a publishable accessibility statement as your audit trail.

The legal context

One technical standard sits behind every deadline.

WCAG 2.2 AA is the measurable baseline named or relied upon by the major accessibility laws. Meet it, document it, and keep meeting it as your store changes.

  1. EU · EAA

    European Accessibility Act

    In force since 28 June 2025 for e-commerce serving EU consumers.

  2. US · ADA

    Americans with Disabilities Act

    Courts routinely treat WCAG 2.x AA as the practical benchmark for web claims.

  3. CA · AODA

    Accessibility for Ontarians

    Mandates WCAG 2.0 AA for covered public-facing websites.

AccessProof helps you find issues, monitor for new ones, and generate your accessibility statement as an audit trail. It does not provide legal advice or guarantee compliance.

Accessibility statement

A statement you can actually publish — in four languages.

Generate a clear, honest accessibility statement reflecting the standard you target, when it was last reviewed, and how to report problems — ready to publish in English, French, Dutch, and German.

  • States WCAG 2.2 AA as your target standard
  • Records the last review date — your audit trail
  • Includes a feedback channel for visitors

FAQ

Honest answers.

  • No. We never inject a script that masks or auto-"fixes" issues at runtime. AccessProof scans your storefront and reports the real issues so you or your developer can fix them at the source.
