The problem
Why accessibility matters now
European Accessibility Act
Since June 2025, many businesses selling online to EU consumers must meet accessibility requirements. Microenterprises providing services are exempt.
US lawsuits
Website accessibility claims under the ADA are filed against online businesses every year, often against small stores.
A bigger market
Up to 1 in 4 US adults has some type of disability, according to the CDC. An inaccessible site turns them away.
Overlays aren’t enough
Plugin-only overlay widgets don’t fix the underlying code, and they aren’t a reliable shield against complaints.
Better UX for everyone
Clear forms, readable text and keyboard-friendly menus help every visitor, especially on mobile.
Better SEO
Good headings, alt text and structure also help search engines and AI tools understand your site.

Please note
We’re developers, not lawyers. Our work helps you meet WCAG 2.2 AA, but we can’t guarantee you’ll never receive a legal claim. For legal questions about the ADA or the European Accessibility Act, please speak to a qualified lawyer.
No. Overlay widgets add a toolbar but don’t fix the code underneath. Many disability groups advise against relying on them. Real fixes in your theme are the reliable way to improve accessibility.
It applies to many businesses selling products or services online to consumers in the EU, including non-EU businesses. Microenterprises providing services are exempt. Please check your situation with a lawyer; we help with the technical work.
WCAG 2.2 level AA, the level most laws and guidelines point to.
Only where needed, for example to fix color contrast or add visible focus states. We keep your brand look intact.
No one can guarantee that. We help you meet WCAG 2.2 AA and document the work, which puts you in a much stronger position.
