Accessibility Audits and Fixes
Find and fix barriers that stop people with disabilities using your site, measured against WCAG 2.2 and tested with real assistive technology.
Overview
Website Accessibility
Accessibility means people who use screen readers, keyboards, voice control or magnification can use your site. Codemotives audits against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, combining automated scanning with manual checks, because automated tools only catch a portion of real issues. We explain each issue in terms of who it affects and how to fix it.
We deliver a prioritized report and can fix the issues in design and code, or coach your developers to do it. We are straightforward about limits: an audit shows the state of your site at a point in time, and we cannot promise legal compliance or immunity from complaints. Accessibility is an ongoing practice, so we also help build it into your workflow.
Context
Problems we solve
- 01
Automated tools miss issues
Scanners find only a share of problems. Manual keyboard and screen reader testing catches the rest.
- 02
Inaccessible components
Custom menus, modals and forms often fail keyboard and screen reader users. We rebuild them with proper semantics.
- 03
Color and content problems
Low contrast, missing alt text and unclear links create barriers. We fix them at design and content level.
- 04
Regressions after launch
New releases reintroduce problems. We add checks to your development process.

- 3
Design
User flows, interfaces and technical design are shaped and reviewed with you early.
- 4
Build
Work is delivered in short iterations with regular demos, so progress is always visible.
- 5
Test
Functional, integration and performance checks run throughout, not only at the end.
- 6
Launch & support
We deploy, monitor and keep improving the product after it goes live.
FAQs
Common questions
Have a question that is not covered here? Get in touch.
Will an audit make us legally compliant?
We cannot promise that. Laws and their interpretation vary by region and change over time. An honest audit and remediation reduce barriers and show good-faith effort, but you should take legal advice for your situation.
Do accessibility overlays fix this?
Overlay widgets generally do not resolve underlying code problems. We recommend fixing the source in design and code.
Can you test with real users?
We test with assistive technology ourselves. Testing with disabled users gives extra insight, and we can work with panels you arrange.
