WCAG compliance checks across every page.

Accessibility Audit

Web accessibility ensures that people with disabilities can perceive, navigate, and interact with your website. Beyond ethical obligations, accessibility is a legal requirement in many jurisdictions (ADA, EAA, AODA) and a Google ranking factor. Common issues include missing alt text on images, poor color contrast, broken heading hierarchies, and missing language declarations. EchoBat combines its own HTML analysis with Lighthouse accessibility audits to provide comprehensive coverage.

How It Works

EchoBat's crawler extracts HTML structure on every page: heading tags, image alt attributes, lang attributes, and ARIA roles. The Accessibility lens analyzes these for WCAG violations. When Lighthouse audits are available (from the Render engine), the lens enriches its findings with color contrast checks, tap target sizes, and more. Results are grouped by issue type and sorted by page count, so the most widespread problems surface first.

Why It Matters

  • Comprehensive WCAG compliance checking across your entire site
  • Combines automated HTML checks with Lighthouse accessibility audits
  • Helps meet legal requirements (ADA, EAA, Section 508)
  • Accessibility improvements often correlate with better SEO rankings
