Scan your website to identify ADA compliance issues. Get a detailed report with fix recommendations before the deadline.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that people with disabilities have equal access to goods and services, including websites. Under the updated ADA Title II rules (published April 2024), state and local government websites must conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
While ADA Title II specifically targets government entities, courts have increasingly applied ADA Title III to private business websites. In 2024, over 4,000 web accessibility lawsuits were filed against private businesses. Many of these settled for amounts ranging from $5,000 to $100,000+.
FixMyWeb scans your website against the same WCAG 2.1 Level AA criteria required by ADA Title II. For each issue found, we provide the specific WCAG criterion, severity level, the element causing the issue, and a code snippet showing exactly how to fix it.
Regular scanning helps you maintain compliance as your website changes. Pro and Agency plans include PDF reports suitable for compliance documentation.
An ADA compliance checker scans a website and evaluates it against the WCAG 2.1 Level AA success criteria that US courts and the ADA Title II regulation use as the technical benchmark for web accessibility. FixMyWeb's ADA compliance checker reports each issue with its WCAG criterion, severity, the offending element, and a code-level fix suggestion, so you can document conformance and reduce legal exposure under ADA Title II and Title III.
The updated ADA Title II rule published in April 2024 sets WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the required conformance level for state and local government websites. While ADA Title III (private businesses) does not name a specific version in statute, courts and settlements consistently use WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the de facto standard, so AA is the practical target for any organization seeking to limit ADA risk.
Under the 2024 ADA Title II rule, state and local government entities serving 50,000 or more people must conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA by April 24, 2026. Entities serving fewer than 50,000 people, plus special district governments, have until April 24, 2027. These are firm federal deadlines in the United States.
No automated tool can guarantee full ADA compliance. Automated scanners reliably detect roughly 30-50% of accessibility barriers, such as missing alt text, low color contrast, and unlabeled form fields. Judgment-based issues like meaningful alt text, logical reading order, and screen-reader usability still require manual testing. The ADA compliance checker fixes the automated portion fastest and gives you a documented roadmap for the manual review the law also expects.
