AAArdvark helps teams find, fix, and monitor WCAG accessibility issues with automated scans, issue tracking, and remediation guidance. Free plan available.
AAArdvark is a web accessibility testing, monitoring, and remediation platform built by accessibility consultant Natalie MacLees. It combines automated scanning with structured issue management so teams can find, prioritize, and fix WCAG accessibility problems across every site they manage, rather than relying on one-off manual audits.
The platform's Visual Mode overlays accessibility issues directly on the live page, and each issue is automatically mapped to the relevant WCAG success criterion with remediation guidance. Teams can assign issues, verify fixes, and re-scan sites to catch regressions, with reports that can be shared with clients or stakeholders. A dedicated AI-powered color contrast checker is included alongside the core audit workflow.
AAArdvark is aimed at organizations managing multiple websites, digital agencies auditing client sites, and freelance accessibility professionals. Every plan includes unlimited users and teams with no per-seat pricing, and browser extensions are available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. Support is handled by human accessibility specialists rather than automated ticketing.
