AI Deep Audit modules beyond axe-core (Pro)
Features
Three audit layers, one plugin
Automated scanning catches what code can detect. AI-assisted deep audit surfaces what needs judgment. Third-party audit prep gets you ready for the credentialed review that actually certifies conformance.
AI Deep Audit · 10 modules
Goes beyond automation: alt-text quality, ARIA correctness, reading order, form usability, keyboard nav, cognitive clarity, modal traps, mobile responsiveness.
PROOne-click fixes — revertable
Curated CSS/JS patches for common issues. Apply with one click, revert just as fast. All fixes injected at runtime — your theme files never touched.
VPAT 2.4 / ACR generator
Auto-generates a draft Voluntary Product Accessibility Template for U.S. federal contracts, state RFPs, and enterprise procurement.
PROFTC-safe public statement
Generated accessibility statement uses "working toward" language. Active risky-phrase scanner blocks "100% compliant", "lawsuit-proof", and other FTC-flagged claims.
Legal Defense Package
One-click ZIP of audit log + applied fixes + VPAT + claims reference. Forward to counsel if you receive an ADA demand letter.
PROWorkflow management
Assign issues to users, set priority, tags, due dates. In-admin notifications. Each user gets a "My Queue" with overdue items highlighted.
PROTrends & analytics
12-week regression view: issues over time, top recurring rules, page-level worst-offenders, fix velocity. Prove improvement to leadership.

Why not accessiBe or UserWay?
Because they're accessibility theater. The FTC fined accessiBe $1M in 2025 for false compliance claims. We do real WCAG remediation.
