Why teams miss accessibility bugs

Most engineering teams only test visual behavior. Screen-reader behavior is invisible during regular QA, so blockers stay hidden until customer complaints, expensive audits, or legal escalation.

Late-stage fixes are expensive

Reworking inaccessible forms and navigation after release burns sprint capacity and forces urgent hotfixes.

Blind users face broken journeys

Nearly 285 million visually impaired users rely on spoken cues. Missing labels and structure blocks essential tasks.

Compliance pressure keeps rising

Startups shipping customer-facing products need evidence of accessibility coverage without hiring a full specialist team.

Built for fast-moving frontend teams

Use the browser extension during local development, then run deeper audits in the dashboard before merge.

Real-time spoken output simulation

Understand reading order, landmark announcements, link context, and form labeling exactly as a screen reader would narrate it.

Actionable issue reports

Each finding includes severity, affected selector, and practical remediation guidance your developers can apply immediately.

Paywalled team dashboard

Secure cookie-based access keeps premium simulation tooling restricted to paying teams while supporting fast onboarding.

Fits current workflow

Keep using your existing stack. Paste HTML snapshots or audit public staging URLs, then hand results directly to your PR owners.

Simple pricing for shipping teams

One plan, one workflow: extension + dashboard + simulation API for individual developers and QA engineers.

FAQ

Do I need real screen reader software?

No. The simulator mirrors core screen-reader interpretation patterns so developers can catch most structural issues before manual assistive-tech QA.

How do I unlock dashboard access?

Complete Stripe checkout, then enter the same purchase email on this page. Your access cookie is issued immediately when the purchase exists.

Can QA engineers use it without coding?

Yes. QA can paste rendered HTML from staging pages and review the spoken transcript plus structured issue report with clear severity labels.

What standards are covered?

The analyzer surfaces WCAG-aligned concerns with rule support from axe-core plus additional semantic checks for labels, headings, and ARIA role usage.
