WCAG 2.1 AA Web Accessibility Audit

Automatic tools (WAVE, Lighthouse, axe) detect between 25% and 40% of accessibility problems. They are useful for an initial diagnosis, but cannot evaluate criteria that require human judgment, such as whether an alternative text is descriptive, whether the reading order makes sense, or whether error messages are understandable.

Our audit combines automatic tools with expert manual review according to the W3C's WCAG-EM methodology. We evaluate all 50 criteria of WCAG 2.1 AA, not just those that a machine can detect.

Yes. Our audit follows the official WCAG-EM methodology (W3C) and evaluates all 50 success criteria of WCAG 2.1 Level AA, which is the standard required by RD 1112/2018 for public sector websites and mobile applications in Spain. The audit report includes the complete documentation required to demonstrate compliance.

The duration depends on the size and complexity of your digital product. A typical website audit takes 2-4 weeks, while larger applications may require 4-8 weeks for comprehensive evaluation. This includes automated testing, manual testing with assistive technologies, and report preparation.

After the audit, we provide guidelines and training to your team to ensure new content also meets WCAG 2.1 AA standards. We also offer ongoing support services and periodic re-audits to verify that your site maintains compliance as it evolves.

No. While we work with many public administrations that must comply with RD 1112/2018, we also help private companies who want to ensure their digital products are accessible to all users, improve their SEO, expand their market, and demonstrate their commitment to inclusion.

A VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) is an industry-standard template developed by ITI that documents how a digital product conforms to accessibility standards. The completed document is called an ACR (Accessibility Conformance Report).

We deliver VPAT 2.5 in any edition — 508, EU, WCAG, or INT — as part of our accessibility audit service. This is especially important for organizations that need to demonstrate compliance across multiple jurisdictions (US Section 508, EU EN 301 549, ADA).

Yes. We test responsive websites on Safari and Chrome mobile browsers, as well as native iOS and Android applications. Our manual testing includes VoiceOver (iOS/macOS), TalkBack (Android), touch target sizing, gesture navigation, and compatibility with mobile assistive technologies.

We use the most widely adopted assistive technologies: NVDA and JAWS (Windows screen readers), VoiceOver (macOS and iOS), TalkBack (Android), and screen magnifiers like ZoomText. We also test keyboard-only navigation, visible focus states, and logical tab order to ensure real-world usability for people with disabilities.

Yes. After your development team implements the recommended fixes, we conduct a verification audit to confirm that issues have been properly resolved. Upon successful verification, we issue a Letter of Conformity certifying the achieved compliance level, which you can use for procurement processes, legal documentation, and public communication.
