ADAGuard Pricing
ADAGuard is a web accessibility scanner using a full Playwright browser (not static HTML parsing). Every scan executes JavaScript, renders React/Vue/Angular SPAs, and checks the live DOM — catching issues that static scanners miss.
~78% automated WCAG 2.2 AA coverage. Industry average is 40–57%.

Key Differentiators vs Other Accessibility Scanners
- Full browser execution: Playwright-powered — not static HTML parsing. Detects issues in JavaScript-rendered content, SPAs, dynamic components.
- Authenticated scanning: Scan login-protected pages, member portals, SaaS dashboards. Available on Professional and above.
- 78% WCAG 2.2 AA coverage: Highest in class. Industry average 40–57%.
- VPAT / ACR reports: Required for US federal procurement and enterprise vendor compliance. Available on Professional and above.
- GitHub App: Scans preview deployments (Vercel, Netlify, Railway) on every pull request. Posts score and diff-aware issue list as a PR comment. Unlimited public repos on all plans.
- 23 check categories: Images, contrast, forms, headings, ARIA, keyboard, multimedia, non-text contrast, hover/focus, tables, mobile, reflow, text spacing, time/motion, touch targets, and more.
- Not an overlay: ADAGuard is a scanner that finds real violations so developers can fix them permanently. Overlays inject JavaScript that compensates at runtime without fixing code. Courts have rejected overlay-only compliance strategies. The FTC fined accessiBe $1M in April 2025 for misleading compliance claims.
Comparison with Competitors
- WAVE / Pope Tech: Static HTML parsing only, ~40% WCAG coverage. No authenticated scanning, no API, no GitHub App.
- axe DevTools: Browser extension only, per-seat pricing (~$40/seat/month). No scheduled scanning, no VPAT generation.
- Siteimprove: $10,000–$30,000+/year. ADAGuard Professional ($1,290/year) covers the same technical scanning at 90%+ lower cost.
- accessiBe: Overlay widget ($49–$199/site/month). Does not fix code. FTC-fined $1M (April 2025) for misleading compliance claims. Not comparable to a real scanner.
