We fix the code. We don’t put a widget on top.

Why this matters for your business

Title III of the ADA covers businesses that serve the public, and many courts have applied it to websites. Thousands of website accessibility lawsuits are filed every year, plus many more demand letters. There’s no small-business exemption.

There’s also no federal rule with a technical checklist for private businesses. In practice everyone uses WCAG 2.1 AA: it’s the standard the Department of Justice adopted in 2024 for state and local government websites, and the one settlements point to.

And it’s simply good business: about one in four US adults lives with a disability, and older customers buy more easily from a site that works with a keyboard, zoom and a screen reader.

What we do, step by step

1. Audit

   An automated test on your key pages, then a person checks the paths that matter: keyboard only, screen reader, search, product pages, cart, checkout, forms, error messages, captcha. You get a report: what’s broken, where, and how serious it is.

2. Fixes in your code

   We work on the theme or template you already have: contrast, image descriptions, form labels, visible focus, menus and pop-ups that work with a keyboard, a cart and checkout without traps. One fixed price, based on what the audit found, before any work starts.

3. Accessibility statement

   A short page that says which standard you follow, what has been fixed, what’s still in progress and how customers can report a problem.

4. Monthly monitoring

   A new product without an image description, a new plugin or a theme update can break things again. We check every month, tell you what broke and fix it. One hour of fixes a month is included; anything bigger is quoted first.

We don’t promise “100% accessible” or “guaranteed compliance”. We promise what we measure and what we fix. The final report shows exactly what was fixed and what’s left, for example a third-party payment form we can’t change.

Questions

Does my business have to make its website accessible?

If your business serves the public, very likely yes. Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act covers businesses open to the public, and many courts have applied it to websites. Unlike the EU rules, there is no small-business exemption.

Who enforces it?

The Department of Justice can, but most cases come from private lawsuits and demand letters. Thousands are filed every year, most of them in New York, Florida and California.

What can it cost if I ignore it?

Mostly legal fees and settlements. In California, the Unruh Civil Rights Act adds statutory damages of at least $4,000 per violation. Fixing the site first is almost always cheaper than defending a claim.

Is an accessibility widget enough?

No. An overlay widget enlarges text and changes colors, but it doesn’t fix the code: unlabeled buttons, form fields without labels and a checkout that can’t be used with a keyboard stay the same. Businesses using widgets have still been sued, and the FTC has acted against a widget vendor over misleading claims.

How long does it take?

The audit takes a few business days. Fixes take from one to a few weeks, depending on how the site’s theme was built. You get the exact timeline together with the fixed price, after the audit.

What is an accessibility statement?

A short page that says which standard you follow (WCAG 2.1 AA), what has been fixed, what’s still in progress and how people can report a problem. No US law requires one for private businesses, but it shows good faith and gives customers a way to reach you before a lawyer does.
