ACCESSIBILITY COMPLIANCE

Accessibility Compliance for Websites, Apps & Digital Products

Accessibility is no longer optional. Across the US, EU, UK, India, UAE and Singapore, the law now expects your digital products to work for people with disabilities — and the lawsuits and deadlines have already started. We audit what you have, fix it in code, and build new products accessible from day one.

US web-accessibility lawsuits filed in federal court in 2025, up 27% year over year.

~95%

of the top million homepages still fail basic WCAG checks (WebAIM, 2025).

Jun 2025

the European Accessibility Act became enforceable across all 27 EU member states.

Apr 2025

India's Supreme Court ruled that digital access is a fundamental right.

An Inaccessible Product Is Now a Legal Liability — Not Just a UX Gap.

For a decade this was a 'nice to have.' That's over. Regulators are enforcing, plaintiffs' firms are filing, and the demand letters are landing on small and mid-sized companies — not just household names.

Demand letters & lawsuits

Over 3,000 US web-accessibility lawsuits hit federal courts in 2025, plus an estimated 35,000–50,000 demand letters. There's no small-business exemption, and roughly 40% of filings are now AI-assisted.

The clock is already running

The EAA is enforceable now. India's SEBI mandates audited accessibility for financial entities. Government platforms in the US, UK, UAE and Singapore have fixed WCAG deadlines. Retrofitting late costs 3–4× more.

You're excluding paying users

Roughly 1 in 5 people live with a disability, and ageing users hit the same barriers. Inaccessible checkout, forms and navigation quietly turn willing customers away every day.

Overlay widgets won't save you

Those "one line of code, instant compliance" accessibility widgets don't fix the code underneath — and courts have noticed. In the first half of 2025, about 23% of US accessibility lawsuits targeted sites that already had a widget installed. The only defensible fix is real, code-level remediation. That's what we do.

One Product, Six Legal Regimes. Here's Where You Actually Stand.

If you sell into these markets — or your customers do — these are the laws, the standards they point to, and the deadlines that matter.

Region	Law(s)	Who must comply	Standard	Key deadline
United States	ADA (Title III private, Title II govt) · Section 508	Any public-facing business; state & local government; federal vendors	WCAG 2.1 AA (we build to 2.2)	Private: now, via lawsuits. Govt: 26 Apr 2027 / 2028
European Union	European Accessibility Act (2019/882) · EN 301 549	Anyone selling to EU consumers, wherever based (micro-enterprises mostly exempt)	EN 301 549 → WCAG 2.1 AA	New content: 28 Jun 2025 (live). Existing: 28 Jun 2030
United Kingdom	Equality Act 2010 · Public Sector Bodies Regs 2018	All providers of goods/services (reasonable adjustments); public sector (strict)	WCAG 2.2 AA (public sector)	Public sector: now. Private: ongoing claims
India	RPwD Act 2016 · IS 17802 · GIGW 3.0 · SEBI mandate	Public & private establishments; all SEBI-regulated entities	WCAG 2.1 + IS 17802	Fundamental right (Apr 2025); SEBI audits + annual
UAE	Federal Disability Law · Dubai Universal Design Code · National Digital Accessibility Policy	Government entities (mandatory); private serving govt / tourism	WCAG 2.1 / 2.2 AA	Government: now; private via procurement
Singapore	IMDA Guidelines · Digital Service Standard · Enabling Masterplan 2030	Government agencies (mandatory); private strongly recommended	WCAG 2.1 AA	Government sites by 2030

United States — ADA Title III & Title II · Section 508

Who's covered: Private businesses open to the public (Title III) and state & local government (Title II). Federal agencies and their vendors fall under Section 508.
Standard: Courts and the DOJ treat WCAG 2.1 AA as the benchmark. We build to WCAG 2.2 AA so you're not redoing the work when regulations update.
Deadlines: Private sector — no grace period; risk is immediate via lawsuits. Government (Title II) — 26 Apr 2027 (population 50k+) and 26 Apr 2028 (smaller), after the DOJ's April 2026 extension.
Exposure: Typically $55k–$270k+ per case once settlement, legal fees and required remediation combine. California's Unruh Act adds statutory damages.

European Union — European Accessibility Act (Directive 2019/882)

Who's covered: Any business selling to EU consumers — e-commerce, banking, telecoms, transport, e-books — regardless of where you're based. Micro-enterprises (under 10 staff and under €2M turnover) are generally exempt for services.
Standard: EN 301 549, which incorporates WCAG 2.1 AA (moving toward 2.2).
Deadlines: New digital content — 28 Jun 2025 (already in force). All existing content — 28 Jun 2030.
Exposure: Set by each member state; fines reach €100,000+ per violation (or a share of turnover), plus removal from market. Advocacy groups began filing within days of enforcement.

United Kingdom — Equality Act 2010 · Public Sector Bodies Regulations 2018

Who's covered: All providers of goods and services — public and private — must make "reasonable adjustments." Public sector bodies have a stricter, explicit digital duty.
Standard: Public sector must meet WCAG 2.2 AA and publish an accessibility statement. Courts treat WCAG conformance as evidence of reasonable adjustment for private firms.
Deadlines: Public-sector duty is live (GDS monitors to WCAG 2.2). Private-sector risk is ongoing discrimination claims, not a single date. Selling into the EU also pulls you under the EAA.
Exposure: Unlawful-act notices and court action via the EHRC, plus discrimination claims and reputational damage.

India — RPwD Act 2016 · IS 17802 · GIGW 3.0 · SEBI mandate

Who's covered: Public and private establishments (Sections 40–46, RPwD Act). The CCPD has already ordered private platforms — including Practo, MakeMyTrip, Ola and Paytm — to comply. All SEBI-regulated financial entities face a hard, audited mandate.
Standard: WCAG 2.1 (or latest), the Indian standard IS 17802, and GIGW 3.0 for government platforms.
Deadlines: April 2025 Supreme Court ruling made digital access a fundamental right. SEBI entities — IAAP-certified audit, usability testing with persons with disabilities, remediation within set windows, then annual audits.
Exposure: Regulatory penalties (155 organisations were already fined in Feb 2025), plus reporting obligations and a designated Nodal Officer for regulated entities.

UAE — Federal Disability Law · Dubai Universal Design Code · National Digital Accessibility Policy

Who's covered: Federal government entities are mandated; the Dubai Universal Design Code extends accessibility duties to digital platforms, and private firms serving government or tourism are expected to comply.
Standard: WCAG 2.1 / 2.2 AA (TDRA National Digital Accessibility Policy and UAE Design System).
Deadlines: Government platforms — active now. Private sector — increasingly required to win government and tourism-sector contracts.
Exposure: Penalties reported up to AED 200,000 under the disability framework, plus disqualification from public contracts.

Singapore — IMDA Guidelines · Digital Service Standard · Enabling Masterplan 2030

Who's covered: Government agencies must meet the Digital Service Standard. Private sector is strongly recommended by IMDA today — and Parliament has already debated requiring essential-service providers to comply.
Standard: WCAG 2.1 AA (DSS / IMDA Accessibility Guidelines).
Deadlines: All high-traffic government sites accessible by 2030 (Enabling Masterplan). Vendors to government must already meet the standard.
Exposure: Mainly procurement and reputational today — but private-sector regulation is the clear direction of travel.

Audit It. Fix It. Or Build It Accessible from the First Commit.

Three ways in, depending on where you are. Every engagement is hands-on engineering work — not a PDF report you're left to act on alone.

WCAG Audit & Gap Analysis

Automated scanning plus manual testing and real assistive-tech checks (screen readers, keyboard-only). You get a prioritised list of issues mapped to WCAG 2.2 AA and to your legal exposure — not a 400-row scanner dump.

Remediation That Holds Up

We fix the code — markup, semantics, ARIA, focus order, contrast, forms, components — then re-test against the original findings. Real fixes a court and a screen-reader user both accept, not an overlay.

Accessible by Design

New product? We build it to WCAG 2.2 AA from day one, with an accessible component library, so accessibility is never a retrofit and never regresses on the next release.

Mobile & Web Apps

Not just marketing sites. We test and remediate native iOS (VoiceOver) and Android (TalkBack), React Native, Flutter and complex web apps — the things most laws now explicitly cover.

Design Systems: Components & Patterns

We make your buttons, modals, menus, tables and form patterns accessible once, at the source, so every screen built on them inherits compliance.

Conformance Statements & Evidence

A clear accessibility statement and a documented conformance record — the proof regulators, procurement teams and enterprise customers ask for.

We Don't Dress Up an Overlay and Call It Compliance.

Accessibility is an engineering discipline. The same team that ships production systems under real load will be the one auditing and fixing your code — by hand, against real assistive technology.

How We Test

Manual + assistive-tech, not just scanners

Automated tools catch only 30–40% of WCAG issues — we run them, then go further by hand.
Keyboard-only walkthroughs of every critical flow: navigation, forms, checkout, login.
Real screen-reader testing — NVDA, VoiceOver, TalkBack — not a guess at how it sounds.
Every issue tied to a WCAG success criterion and a severity, so fixes are prioritised by risk.

Overlays don't make you compliant. Code does.

Why Trust Us With It

Engineers who ship under real load

Accessibility done right is careful front-end engineering. It's the work we already do:

MedtricsLab — healthcare platform backend optimised for 20,000+ concurrent users, a 3-year partnership.
CAMCESS — an 11-source integration hub built with error handling and monitoring from day one.
YourComments.ai — production NLP and data pipelines, live, at scale.

Accessibility is a newer line for us — so we're upfront: you get senior engineering rigour and fixed-scope honesty, and your project becomes the case study we publish next.

From Audit to Compliant in a Clear, Fixed-Scope Path.

You'll know the scope, the timeline and the price before any remediation begins.

Audit & Gap Analysis

We test your site or app against WCAG 2.2 AA — automated, manual and assistive-tech — and map every issue to its legal risk.

Automated tools catch 30–40% of issues. The rest is manual and AT testing — that's the work most vendors skip.

Prioritised Roadmap

A fixed-scope plan that fixes the highest-risk, highest-impact barriers first. Clear timeline, clear price.

Scope includes WCAG success criterion mapping and legal risk level for each issue. You approve before any work begins.

Fix & Re-test

We remediate in code and verify each fix against the original findings with real assistive technology. No "should be fine."

Re-tested with NVDA, VoiceOver, TalkBack and keyboard-only navigation. Not just re-running the scanner.

Conformance & Handover

An accessibility statement, a documented conformance record, and guidance so your next release doesn't regress.

Includes component-level notes for your dev team and a conformance statement draft ready to publish.

A typical audit takes 1–3 weeks depending on size. Remediation scope and timeline are fixed before any fixing begins.

Auditors Hand You a Report. We Hand You Fixed Code.

Manual + Assistive-Tech Tested

We test the way disabled users actually browse — keyboard and screen reader — not just a scanner that misses two-thirds of the issues.

We Fix. We Don't Just Flag.

Most accessibility vendors stop at the report. We're engineers, so we remediate the code and re-test it. One partner, audit through compliant.

You Talk to the Experts

Talk to expert in every engagement. No account managers, no black box. Fixed scope, fixed price, zero surprises.

Not Sure Where You Stand? Run These 5 Tests Yourself.

Five checks anyone can do in ten minutes — no tools, no expertise. If your site trips on even one, you almost certainly have a WCAG problem worth a proper audit.

01
Unplug your mouse.
Can you Tab to and use every link, button and form? Is the focused item always clearly highlighted?
02
Check your images.
Do meaningful images have alt text that describes them?
03
Check contrast.
Is text easy to read against its background? Aim for 4.5:1 on body text.
04
Zoom to 200%.
Does everything stay readable and usable, with no cut-off or overlap?
05
Check your forms.
Does every field have a visible label, and are errors explained in text?

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions CTOs and founders ask us most.

Is my website legally required to be accessible?

In most markets we serve, yes. US courts treat WCAG 2.1 AA as the bar for the ADA, the EU's European Accessibility Act has been enforceable since June 2025, India's Supreme Court ruled in April 2025 that digital access is a fundamental right, and the UK Equality Act requires reasonable adjustments. Government and financial-sector platforms face the hardest, dated deadlines.

What is WCAG 2.2 AA and which version do I need?

WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) is the technical standard nearly every accessibility law points to. WCAG 2.1 AA is the common legal baseline today; WCAG 2.2 AA is the current version and what we build to, so you're not redoing the work when the law catches up.

Does the European Accessibility Act apply to me if I'm based outside the EU?

Yes, if you sell products or services to consumers in the EU — it applies regardless of where you're headquartered. New digital content had to comply from 28 June 2025; existing content has until 28 June 2030. Businesses under 10 staff and €2M turnover are generally exempt for services.
