Description
Audivexa Accessibility Audit helps site owners, agencies, and WooCommerce stores find and fix common web accessibility issues, and document that work in clean, shareable reports.
Run an automated scan on any page of your site. The plugin checks your content against common WCAG success criteria and shows each issue with a plain-English “how to fix” explanation and a link to learn more. You can then save each scan and open a detailed, timestamped report that you can add your own logo and business name to, and print or save as PDF for your clients or your records.
This plugin performs automated checks only. Automated testing cannot detect every accessibility issue and does not guarantee legal compliance. It is a tool to support your accessibility work, not a substitute for manual testing or professional advice.
What it does
- Scans pages for common WCAG accessibility issues
- Groups issues by severity: critical, serious, moderate, and minor
- Gives a plain-English “how to fix” for each issue, plus a “learn more” reference
- Includes WooCommerce-aware checks (product image alt text, add to cart control labels)
- Saves scans and shows them as detailed, timestamped reports
- Adds your own logo and business name to reports (great for agencies)
- Exports reports as PDF using your browser’s built-in print to PDF
Who it is for
- Website owners who want to understand and improve accessibility
- Agencies and freelancers who audit client sites and need branded reports
- WooCommerce store owners preparing for accessibility expectations
Scanning engine
This plugin bundles axe-core, an open-source accessibility testing engine (MPL-2.0), which runs locally in your browser. No page data is sent to any external server by the scanner.

FAQ
-
Does this plugin make my site ADA compliant, WCAG compliant, or EAA compliant?
-
No. No automated tool can make a site compliant or guarantee compliance. This plugin runs automated checks that catch many common issues, but full conformance also requires manual testing and human judgement. Treat the results as a helpful starting point, not a certification.
-
Is this relevant to Section 508, ADA, or the European Accessibility Act (EAA)?
-
The checks are based on common WCAG success criteria, which are widely referenced by those standards and laws. The plugin helps you find and document common issues, but it does not assess legal compliance and is not legal advice.
-
Does the plugin work with WooCommerce?
-
Yes. When WooCommerce is active, the scan adds store-focused checks such as product images missing alt text and add to cart controls without an accessible name.
-
Does the plugin change or edit my site automatically?
-
No. Scanning is read-only. The plugin reports issues and tells you how to fix them; it does not modify your theme, content, or markup on its own.
-
Does it send my data anywhere?
-
No. The scanning engine runs locally in your browser, and your saved reports are stored in your own WordPress database.
-
Can I put my own branding on the reports?
-
Yes. In the Accessibility > Settings screen you can set a business name, website, and logo that appear at the top of every report.
