Option Matrix
Snapshot: fast triage of public HTML signals, useful for issue categories but not a compliance certificate.
Expert audit: deeper manual testing of pages, flows, assistive-technology behavior, keyboard access, forms, documents, and code patterns.
Monitoring and remediation workflow: recurring checks, issue prioritization, evidence logs, ownership, and proof of ongoing accessibility work.
Where accessiBe May Fit
accessiBe publicly describes accessWidget, accessFlow, accessServices, VPAT/ACR support, expert audit, user testing, file/PDF accessibility, and select-plan litigation support resources.
The right fit depends on the complaint, platform, website complexity, counsel guidance, and whether the business needs software, expert services, documentation, or a hybrid plan.
Claims To Avoid
Avoid saying that any scan, widget, statement, or report guarantees ADA compliance, WCAG conformance, lawsuit dismissal, or settlement.
Use careful wording: evidence of accessibility efforts, technical triage, remediation plan, monitoring, and provider options.
Frequently asked questions
Is a widget enough after a lawsuit?
A widget may be one part of a plan, but lawsuit response should also consider counsel guidance, manual review, remediation, documentation, and careful claim language.
What should I ask a provider?
Ask what is automated, what is manually reviewed, what documentation is provided, what is excluded, and what claims the provider will substantiate.
