Website Accessibility Audit Experts Who Find What Tools Miss

Need a website accessibility audit that goes beyond scanners? Automated evaluation tools alone cannot find every barrier — see the W3C WAI guidance on selecting evaluation tools. Our IAAP-certified specialists perform manual testing with JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, TalkBack, keyboards, and switch devices, then hand your developers exact, code-level fixes mapped to WCAG 2.2 and aligned with ADA web guidance. We also test against ADA, Section 508, EN 301 549, and IS 17802. Compare packages on our accessibility audit pricing page, request a sample audit report, or start with a $100 consultation.

Manual Testing Proof

What Automated Scanners Miss vs. What We Test

Automated tools are a starting point, not a finish line. They excel at catching measurable issues such as missing alt text, low contrast ratios, and missing form labels. They cannot judge whether an alt description is meaningful or whether a screen reader announcement makes sense in context — which is why the W3C WAI selecting evaluation tools guidance stresses combining methods.

That is why every HalfAccessible website accessibility audit pairs automated scanning with manual testing on JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. The scanner shows where to look; the tester confirms whether it actually works for people. Findings map to WCAG 2.2 success criteria and reflect ADA web guidance expectations. Need build help after the audit? We also offer accessible WordPress development and accessible Shopify development.

Homepage FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Direct answers about website accessibility audit cost, timelines, VPATs, and assistive technology testing.

What does a digital accessibility consulting company actually do?

A digital accessibility consulting company tests websites, apps, and documents against standards like WCAG 2.2, ADA, and Section 508, then provides code-level fixes, testing with real assistive technology such as screen readers and keyboards, and compliance documentation such as VPATs. HalfAccessible combines automated scanning with manual testing by IAAP-certified specialists rather than relying on scanner output alone — start with a website accessibility audit.

How much does a WCAG accessibility audit cost?

HalfAccessible offers a $100 1-Hour Consultation for teams that need direction first, a $500 Quick Audit for small sites, and a $2,000 Complete Audit for larger or more complex sites (including full Shopify accessibility audit coverage), with final scope depending on site size, number of user flows, and whether you need full manual assistive technology testing. See the pricing page for a detailed breakdown.

What is the difference between an automated scan and a manual accessibility audit?

Automated scans catch objectively measurable issues like missing alt attributes or low color contrast. Manual audits add human judgment: testing with JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver to check whether content is actually usable, not just technically present. The W3C WAI selecting evaluation tools guidance explains why combining methods matters. Our website accessibility audit always includes both.

What is a VPAT, and do I need one?

A VPAT, or Voluntary Product Accessibility Template, is a standardized document describing how a product conforms to accessibility standards like WCAG and Section 508. Once completed and reviewed, it is typically called an ACR, or Accessibility Conformance Report. You need one if you sell to government agencies, higher education, or enterprise buyers with procurement teams that require accessibility documentation. See our VPAT & ACR documentation service or request a VPAT quote.

How long does an accessibility audit take?

Website accessibility audit timelines depend on scope. A focused audit of a single application can be completed in as little as 7 days, while larger multi-flow platforms typically take 2–4 weeks for full manual and assistive technology testing. After the report, accessibility remediation timelines depend on how many barriers need fixing.

Which assistive technologies does HalfAccessible test with?

HalfAccessible tests with JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, TalkBack, and switch-access devices, covering major screen reader combinations on Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android plus motor-impairment testing workflows. Every website accessibility audit includes real AT testing — not scanner output alone.
