WCAG 2.2, Audit, Remediation & Conformance
Audit. Fix. Test. Pass.
WCAG 2.2 conformance for healthcare, government, e-commerce, B2B SaaS, and any business that takes inclusion seriously. ADA-, EAA- and RPwD Act-ready. We audit, fix and re-test until your site passes, and stays passing as your team ships new features. For businesses anywhere in the world.
Conformance you can declare publicly.
Six deliverables, scoped to your site and the assistive-tech reality of your audience.
WCAG 2.2 audit (AA / AAA)
A full audit of your site against WCAG 2.2, automated scans plus a manual review by humans who actually use screen readers. Output: a written conformance report with severity-scored issues.
Remediation
We fix the issues, semantic HTML, ARIA where appropriate, keyboard focus order, colour contrast, alt text, form labels, error messaging. Re-tested as we go.
Screen-reader & keyboard testing
Manual testing on NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver and TalkBack. Keyboard-only navigation paths. The bugs automated scanners miss.
Accessibility statement
A public accessibility statement on your site (required by EAA and recommended under ADA), declaring conformance level, known gaps, contact for accessibility issues.
Design-system patterns
For teams that ship continuously: accessible component patterns (modals, dropdowns, date pickers, custom controls) so new features don't silently break compliance.
Annual retest
Accessibility decays as a site evolves. A yearly retest and conformance refresh, included in the maintenance retainer.
Four phases, four to eight weeks for most sites.
Audit
Two to three weeks. Automated scans + manual screen-reader pass + keyboard-only walkthrough. Output: severity-scored issue list, mapped to WCAG 2.2 criteria.
Fix
Engineering team works through high-severity issues first. Most fixes are HTML / CSS / focus order, no full redesign required for sites built on a modern stack.
Test
Re-test with screen readers, keyboard only, and assistive-tech automation. We sign off only when a real user with assistive tech could complete every key journey.
Pass
Conformance statement published. Accessibility statement on your site. Annual retest scheduled. You can answer the procurement question yes.
Accessibility, plainly answered.
What is WCAG 2.2 and which level should I aim for?
+
WCAG 2.2 is the W3C's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, the global standard for web accessibility. It has three conformance levels, A (minimum), AA (the standard target for most businesses, required by ADA and EAA), and AAA (highest, rarely required). For Indian businesses, AA is the right target: it satisfies US ADA expectations, EU Accessibility Act requirements, and Indian RPwD Act 2016 obligations. AAA only when content needs are exceptional (e.g., government, healthcare, education).
Does my business legally need to be accessible?
+
Yes, in several overlapping ways depending on where you operate. In the United States, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is interpreted to apply to public-facing websites of businesses operating in commerce, and web accessibility lawsuits are a real and growing industry. In the European Union, the European Accessibility Act (EAA, effective June 2025) requires accessibility for e-commerce, banking and transport sites. In the UK, the Equality Act 2010 applies. In India, the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act 2016 requires "appropriate technology." In Canada, the AODA applies to Ontario businesses. For most growth-stage businesses with any international or e-commerce exposure, accessibility is no longer optional.
How much does WCAG accessibility cost?
+
A WCAG 2.2 AA audit for a typical SMB marketing site costs $600–$2,000 USD (₹50,000–₹1.5 lakh). Remediation runs $1,200–$5,000 USD (₹1 lakh–₹4 lakh) depending on issue volume. A complete audit + remediation + statement bundle for a mid-sized site typically lands between $2,500–$7,500 USD (₹2 lakh–₹6 lakh), one-time. Annual retest retainer is $500–$1,200 USD/year (₹40,000–₹1 lakh). We work in USD, GBP, EUR and INR depending on client preference.
Can I just use a "compliance overlay" widget?
+
No. AccessiBe, UserWay, EqualWeb and similar overlay widgets do not make a site accessible. Multiple US lawsuits have specifically found that overlays do not satisfy ADA. Most accessibility advocates actively recommend against them. Real accessibility comes from fixing the underlying HTML, semantics, and focus order, not bolting on a script.
What are the most common accessibility issues you find?
+
Missing or incorrect alt text on images. Buttons that aren't actually buttons (divs with click handlers). Form fields without labels. Modal dialogs that trap or fail to trap focus. Colour contrast below 4.5:1. Custom dropdowns that don't support keyboard navigation. PDF content that isn't tagged. Auto-playing video without controls. Heading order skipping levels. In 80% of audits, the same dozen issues account for most violations.
How long does accessibility remediation take?
+
For a typical 30–50 page marketing site, full WCAG 2.2 AA conformance takes 4 to 8 weeks from audit to final retest. Larger sites or web applications can run 12 to 24 weeks. Most of the work is engineering, the audit is fast; the fixes take time.
Will accessibility hurt my site's design?
+
The opposite, usually. The same things that make a site accessible, semantic HTML, clear focus indicators, sufficient colour contrast, well-labelled forms, predictable navigation, also make it more usable for everyone, faster, and more SEO-friendly. Accessible sites typically score better on Core Web Vitals and rank higher on Google. The "accessibility hurts design" myth comes from bad implementations, not the standard itself.
