ADA compliance, end to end.
Federal and Massachusetts law require business websites to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA. ADA Active Shield handles the full path to compliance — free scan, full audit, code-level remediation, certification, and ongoing monitoring — so you stay protected from fines, demand letters, and lawsuits.
What you get
Built to deliver outcomes — fast.
Full Audit & Scan
WCAG 2.1 AA automated scan plus a hands-on manual review by certified accessibility specialists, with a severity-ranked findings report and prioritized fix roadmap.
Code-Level Remediation
Our team implements the fixes — alt text, color contrast, keyboard navigation, labels, ARIA, captions, forms, and more — priced by site size.
Certification & Shield Badge
Once your site is remediated, you're certified and the ADA Active Shield badge is installed.
Ongoing Monitoring
Monthly monitoring, manual spot-checks, and an annual ADA assessment report keep you compliant as your site evolves.
Defense-Ready Option
Upgrade to Defense Ready for a 72-hour triage call, technical evidence package, claim-by-claim response, emergency remediation, and attorney warm referral.

Small businesses can claim up to $5,000 in federal tax credits (Section 44) and $15,000 in deductions annually for accessibility improvements.

FAQ
Common questions.
Does the monitoring plan fix my site automatically?+
No. Monitoring (Active Shield Monthly Monitoring and Defense Ready) keeps watch on your site and includes an annual assessment, but actual fixes are handled through our one-time remediation plans, priced by site size.
Does the accessibility widget make my site compliant?+
No. The widget is a user-experience enhancement — not a compliance mechanism. True compliance requires a full audit and code-level remediation. (In April 2025 the FTC fined accessiBe $1M for claiming otherwise.)
What does a full audit cost?+
$997 one-time. It pairs an automated WCAG 2.1 AA scan with a hands-on manual review by certified specialists, and includes a severity-ranked report plus a prioritized remediation roadmap.
How much does remediation cost?+
It's priced by site size: $1,500 for 1–5 pages, $3,500 for 6–15 pages, $6,000 for 16–30 pages, and $9,500 for transaction sites up to 55 pages. Additional pages are $250/page.
Why does Full Coverage monitoring require remediation first?+
Ongoing monitoring and badge renewal require a remediated, certified site as a baseline. The $49/mo Widget Only plan is the standalone option that doesn't require an audit or remediation.
Are there tax incentives?+
Yes — small businesses can claim up to $5,000 in federal tax credits (Section 44 Disabled Access Credit) and $15,000 in deductions annually for accessibility improvements.
