Most scanners stop at what is wrong. The ES Designs Audit Tool also tells you how to fix it: a code-level suggestion, a plain-English explanation for non-technical staff, and a ticket-ready description your web developer can pick up. Use the findings in Chapter 2 (Current State Assessment) of your plan in the free Compliance Roadmap Tool.

ES Designs Audit Tool
WCAG 2.2 rule checks plus AI-generated remediation: code-level fixes, plain-English explanations for non-technical staff, and ticket-ready descriptions for your web developer queue. Free for any single page.
Zero accessibility overlays. Ever.
The audit tool produces reports and remediation guidance. We do not inject third-party scripts into your website, we do not sell overlay products, and we do not work with vendors who do. Disability advocates and procurement officers screen out overlay vendors, and they are right to.
