Website accessibility compliance softwareMake Your Website
Make Your Website
Accessible. For Real.
AbleGuard finds what's broken, fixes it where your platform allows, verifies every fix on your live site, and hands you the statement and evidence to prove it. No widget. No guessing.
No card requiredHow AbleGuard works, in four steps
Who is behind AbleGuard
Built by the same team whose software is trusted by 30,000,000+ websites worldwide.
Everything You Need to Fix Your Site’s Accessibility
One dashboard, connected to your site however your platform allows. No agencies, no $10,000 audits, no scripts layered over broken pages.
Every fix re-checked live
A second scan measures before and after on your live page. If it can't finish, we print no number.
AI alt text that stays
Plain-language descriptions written into your media library, never over one a human already wrote.
Checks ranked by legal risk
Every page tested against 100+ WCAG 2.2 rules, ordered by real-world lawsuit exposure — so you fix what matters first, not what's alphabetically first.
One-click fixes, at the source
Approve a fix and it's applied — server-side in the page on WordPress, as pre-approved rules where your platform only allows a script. Never a widget.
A statement built from scan data
Published on your own domain, generated from what we actually found — never boilerplate you can't back up.
Deterministic — nothing breaks
Contrast is colour maths; labels and names are rules. Attributes and CSS only, so nothing breaks.
Evidence packs
A dated, printable record of every scan, fix and review. If a complaint ever lands, you can show the work.

Why site owners choose AbleGuard over a widget
Compliance isn't a script you paste. It's a system — real fixes, verified live, on a record you can show — working on every page you publish.
An accessibility widget won't protect you. It might get you sued.
In January 2025 the FTC fined accessiBe — the largest overlay vendor — $1 million for claiming its widget could make websites compliant. It couldn't. A widget is a public announcement that your site has a problem; plaintiff firms scan for them, and the code underneath is exactly what screen readers and expert witnesses examine.
The same bakery page twice. With a widget the HTML is unchanged: images have no alt text, the button has no name, the body text is too light. With AbleGuard the fixes are in the page.
The fixes survive you cancelling.
Overlay "fixes" vanish the second the script comes off. AbleGuard writes into your site itself — AI alt text goes straight into your media library, WordPress or Shopify, where it belongs. Remove us and it's still there.

Every fix is checked on your live page.
A fix that looks right in theory can backfire in practice — on one store the first pass made a page worse, and the verification step caught it. So every change is re-measured on the live page by axe-core, and the before-and-after goes into your evidence pack. If the re-check can't finish, we don't print a number.
A verification run on mybakery.com: score 66 before and 82 after, with a dated log. One entry records a first pass that made a page worse, caught and re-fixed.
Proof instead of promises.
Nobody can honestly promise instant compliance — the FTC made that expensive. What we give you instead is the thing that actually helps if a complaint lands: a statement backed by real scan data, and a dated record of continuous effort. Our statement generator can't even say "compliant" — it's hard-coded to "partially conformant", because that's what's true.
An evidence pack for mybakery.com: standard, period and pages scanned, then five dated entries for the statement, a verified fix, alt text written, the manual review in progress, and the hard-coded “partially conformant” wording.
One product for every site you run.
WordPress gets the strongest mode: the corrected page leaves your server already fixed. Shopify connects through an app. Wix, Squarespace and anything else take one snippet — and there, fixes run in the browser, the only way those platforms permit. Same mechanism as an overlay; the difference is what runs: rules you approved one at a time, verified, deterministic, limited to attributes and one stylesheet.
Wix and Squarespace only allow custom code on paid plans. WordPress.org and Shopify App Store listings are pending. LAUNCH SCOPE
A dashboard of five connected sites: WordPress server-side, Shopify through the app, Wix and Squarespace and a plain script tag through a snippet, each verified with the same rules. One site is mid-scan.
Set the lawsuits aside. You're still losing customers.
Roughly one in four adults lives with a disability. VERIFY — CDC Some use a screen reader. Far more just have a phone in bright sunlight, a trackpad they can't aim precisely, or eyes that are fifty years old. The fixes are the same fixes — readable contrast, named buttons, working keyboard navigation — and search engines read what screen readers read.
Customer stories
Proof, not promises
Real customers, in their own words, approved in writing. The six below are sample quotes for layout review and will be replaced. SAMPLE COPY
Small business · sampleThe first scan found 58 serious problems across our 20 pages. A week later it was 14, and every fix had been checked on the live page. I approved them between the morning bake and opening.
Priya RamanOwner, mybakery.com
Agency · sampleA client got a lawyer’s letter on a Monday. By Wednesday we could hand over a dated evidence pack and a statement on their own domain. Twenty-five client sites in one dashboard is the part I did not expect to like.
Tomás OliveiraFounder, Northline Studio
E-commerce · sampleOne fix made a product page worse. Verification caught it before I did, re-fixed it and re-measured it. That is the moment I stopped worrying about what it was doing to the store.
Hannah ReyesOwner, shop.mybakery.com
Publisher · sampleWe have about 900 images and nobody wanted the alt-text job. Now it is reviewed, not written, and it never touched a caption our editors had already done. Remove the plugin and the text is still in the library.
Daniel KwameEditor, The Weekend Loaf
Developer · sampleI expected a widget. It sets attributes and one stylesheet, verifies on the live page, and nothing moves. The developer brief gave me the exact snippet for a heading order that belonged in the theme.
Lena FischerFreelance WordPress developer
Non-profit · sampleThe statement says “partially conformant” because that is true, and the evidence pack shows the work behind it. That honesty is exactly what our board needed to see.

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions people ask before they start.
Is AbleGuard an accessibility overlay?
No. On WordPress, fixes are written into the page on the server. On platforms that only allow a script, fixes do run in the browser — the only way those platforms permit — but they're rules you approved one by one, verified on your live page, deterministic, and limited to attributes and one stylesheet. An overlay guesses at everything, all the time, and hides the guessing behind a widget.
Will AbleGuard make my site ADA or EAA compliant?
No tool can honestly promise that, and you should be suspicious of any that does — the FTC fined the largest overlay vendor $1 million for exactly that claim.
Here's what we do instead: find the problems, fix what can be fixed safely, verify each fix on your live pages, guide you through the checks that need a human, and produce the statement and evidence that demonstrate ongoing, good-faith effort. That's what matters if a complaint ever lands.
Will it slow down my website?
No. Scanning runs on our servers, not yours. On WordPress the plugin applies approved fixes as your pages are generated — a few milliseconds of server-side work, and no extra JavaScript sent to your visitors. On snippet platforms it's one small script applying pre-approved rules — not a third-party widget on every page view.
Do I need to know anything about accessibility or code?
No. Every problem and every fix is explained in plain English — "this text is too light to read," not a WCAG criterion number. You review and approve; the rest is applied for you. If you work with a developer, every issue can produce a brief with the corrected code.
What happens if a fix breaks my site?
It's built not to. Fixes only set attributes and CSS — they can't move or remove anything — and nothing is applied until you approve it. Every approved fix is re-measured on the live page; if the re-check finds a new problem, it's flagged, not shipped. Switching a fix off restores the original markup. TBD — engineering
What happens when I remove AbleGuard?
Fixes written into your content — like alt text saved to your media library — stay permanently. Render-time fixes stop. Your dashboard keeps the full record of what was fixed, so nothing is lost.
Which platforms and page builders does it work with?
WordPress (server-side, the strongest mode), Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, and any site that can take a script tag. Wix and Squarespace only allow custom code on paid plans. On WordPress, builder rule packs add higher-confidence fixes for SeedProd and WPConsent today, with Elementor, Divi, Astra and Kadence next. LAUNCH SCOPE
Why does accessibility suddenly matter so much?
Two reasons. US courts see thousands of ADA website lawsuits every year — increasingly against small businesses, including ones with an overlay installed. And the European Accessibility Act has been enforceable since 28 June 2025; the first lawsuits were filed in France in November 2025, it applies to businesses selling to EU customers wherever they're based, and it requires a published accessibility statement. The cost of doing nothing changed.
