Introduction

Siteimprove is a digital presence platform, and Siteimprove.ai Accessibility is its accessibility product. Its product page positions it as an ongoing programme rather than a one-time fix: everyone who publishes can monitor, prioritise and remediate continuously, so accessibility scales with the organisation.

Siteimprove argues that point-in-time audits go out of date as soon as someone publishes a page or uploads a PDF, and that overlays mask issues in the browser without fixing underlying code, so sites still fail WCAG and fall short of ADA Title II, Section 508 and the European Accessibility Act. Instead, it uses agents that monitor the digital estate as it changes, covering pages and documents across the whole site, and prioritise issues that carry the most risk. To illustrate the scale of the problem, the page cites research that 95.9% of the top one million homepages have at least one detectable WCAG 2 failure. The accessibility product sits alongside Siteimprove’s search, analytics and content strategy modules. Pricing is not published.

Features

  1. Continuous monitoring: Scans the whole site as content changes.
  2. Risk prioritisation: Focus on the issues that matter most.
  3. Content-team friendly: Built for publishers as well as developers.
  4. Compliance focus: WCAG, ADA Title II, Section 508 and EAA.

Pros

  1. Site-wide coverage: Monitors pages and documents at scale.
  2. Programme management: Dashboards and prioritisation for teams.

Cons

  1. Enterprise pricing: Not published; see site.
  2. Monitoring, not development testing: Developers still need in-pipeline tools.

Typical use:

  1. Siteimprove crawls your sites and documents on a schedule.
  2. Content editors and developers review prioritised accessibility issues with guidance.
  3. Teams fix issues at the source and track progress in dashboards and reports.
  4. Pair with developer tools such as axe-core or Pa11y CI to prevent new issues before publishing.
