The accessibility audit report your client can actually read

Websight runs the open-source axe-core engine against the WCAG 2.2 success criteria that automated tools can test: missing text alternatives, colour contrast, form labels, link and button names, page language, heading and landmark structure, ARIA use, target size and more. It is about every kind of accessibility, not only sight: the checks cover vision, hearing, motor and cognitive needs as far as an automated tool can go. Each finding shows the affected elements, the WCAG criterion, why it matters to real users and a suggested fix.

Automated tools find only part of the accessibility problems on a page. Websight cannot judge whether alt text is meaningful, whether the whole site works with a keyboard in a sensible order, how a page sounds in a screen reader, whether captions are accurate, or whether content is clear to people with cognitive differences. It also cannot see pages and states it was not shown, such as dialogs, error states or content behind a login you did not open. The Pro report includes a 25-point manual checklist for those checks, and a free printable version is on this site.

No. Websight scans only the tab you click on, only when you click. It makes no requests to the sites you scan and sends no page content anywhere. Results, audits, branding and PDF reports are built and stored on your computer. The only service it contacts is ExtensionPay, to confirm a Pro subscription. There are no analytics in the extension, and this website sets no cookies. Details are in the privacy policy.

The score starts at 100. Each type of issue found takes points off: critical 10, serious 7, moderate 4, minor 2. An issue that appears on many elements takes up to twice as many points (10 percent more for each extra element, up to 10 extra). The result is kept between 0 and 100. It only counts problems the automated engine can detect, so it is a way to compare scans of the same page over time, not a measure of WCAG conformance or legal compliance. The full method, with worked examples.

Only as context. The EAA (Directive 2019/882) has applied to certain products and services sold in the EU since 28 June 2025, and the technical standard usually cited for websites points to WCAG level AA. Websight tests the WCAG 2.2 criteria that can be automated and includes a careful, non-legal context page in the Pro report. It does not state whether any website meets the EAA, the Equality Act 2010 or any other law, and nothing it produces is legal advice. Ask a qualified adviser about your own situation.

Yes. The scan runs inside the tab you have open, so anything you can see in Chrome can be scanned: localhost, staging, pages behind your own login. Nothing is fetched from outside.

Pro starts with a 7-day free trial, and you can cancel at any time through ExtensionPay; access continues to the end of the period you have paid for. If something is broken and we cannot fix it, ask within 14 days of a charge and we will refund it. Consumers in the UK keep their statutory rights. Full terms.
