Why the approach matters

AudioEye is a managed accessibility service that combines a JavaScript overlay with human remediation support. It's positioned as an enterprise solution and priced accordingly — typically $1,500–$5,000+ per year. ADAGuard is a developer-first accessibility scanner: automated, API-accessible, and priced for teams of any size. It scans your actual DOM, maps every violation to a specific WCAG 2.2 criterion, and delivers precise code fix guidance so your team can permanently resolve issues without waiting on a managed service cycle.

Real DOM scanning

ADAGuard reads your actual HTML, ARIA attributes, and rendered CSS — not a JavaScript overlay applied on top of broken code.

Element-level precision

Every issue includes the exact CSS selector, outerHTML snippet, and WCAG success criterion — so developers know exactly what to fix.

Legally defensible evidence

A time-stamped audit trail of discovered violations and confirmed fixes is your best protection against ADA demand letters.

Why teams choose ADAGuard over AudioEye

Real accessibility auditing — not a widget that masks problems.

ADAGuard costs a fraction of AudioEye's enterprise pricing — from $0 free to $249/month Business — with no annual contracts.

The REST API lets your engineering team trigger scans, fetch results, and integrate accessibility checks directly into CI/CD pipelines.

Every issue report includes the exact DOM selector and a code fix example — no waiting on a managed remediation cycle.

Authenticated scanning covers your SaaS app, client portals, and checkout flows that AudioEye's overlay-based approach cannot reach.

ADAGuard is fully self-service — sign up, paste your URL, scan. No sales calls, no contract negotiation, no 30-day wait.

VPAT and ACR pre-fill is automated on Professional and Business plans, with criteria requiring manual testing clearly flagged — the same compliance documentation AudioEye offers at enterprise rates.
