With a WCAG audit, we systematically evaluate websites, apps and complex software for digital accessibility. We assess compliance with WCAG 2.2 AA and identify barriers that make digital products difficult to use.

We combine manual evaluations with automated checks and testing with assistive technologies. This allows us to identify technical and design-related accessibility issues and establish a reliable foundation for targeted improvements.

When is a WCAG audit useful?

A WCAG audit is useful when companies want to evaluate the accessibility of their digital products, address legal requirements or systematically remove existing barriers.

Typical questions include:

  • Which WCAG 2.2 AA requirements does our product already meet?
  • What accessibility barriers affect navigation, interaction and content?
  • What problems occur when using screen readers or keyboard navigation?
  • What improvements are needed to make our product more accessible?

An audit is particularly valuable before a website relaunch, after major product changes or when preparing to meet accessibility requirements under Germany's Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG) and EN 301 549.

How do we proceed?

1. Define the scope of evaluation

Together, we define the objectives, relevant user scenarios and scope of the audit. We select representative pages, functions and interactions for evaluation.

2. Systematically evaluate accessibility

We assess the selected areas against WCAG success criteria. Our evaluation covers keyboard accessibility, screen reader compatibility, color contrast, forms and understandable content, among other aspects.

3. Document and assess accessibility barriers

We document identified issues and map them to the relevant WCAG criteria. Each finding is assessed based on its severity and impact on the user experience.

4. Recommend improvements

We develop actionable recommendations for design and development teams. We prioritize improvements based on their relevance and can support implementation and subsequent verification.

What do you receive?

You receive a structured assessment of your digital product's accessibility.

Depending on the scope of the audit, the deliverables include:

  • A documented audit report assessing relevant WCAG success criteria
  • An overview of identified accessibility barriers, including severity and affected functions
  • Actionable recommendations for design and development
  • A prioritized foundation for remediation and subsequent accessibility retesting

This provides your team with a transparent basis for making informed decisions, removing accessibility barriers and continuously improving digital accessibility.
