Accessibility audits

Modern, efficient and holistic

An accessibility audit is key to systematically identifying and removing barriers in your digital offerings. Our experts thoroughly examine your websites, apps, software, or documents and provide you with concrete recommendations – practical, prioritized, and actionable.

We combine modern tools with the expertise of our accessibility specialists to reliably identify barriers, both technical and user-related:

• Automated testing: Using tools like axe, WAVE, and Lighthouse, we quickly and efficiently identify machine-testable barriers.
• Specialized testing tools: Browser extensions, DevTools modules, and contrast testers support the targeted analysis of individual requirements.
• Manual testing: Our experts test semantic structures, keyboard usability, and screen reader functionality to ensure actual accessibility.
• Assistive technologies: We test with NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack on Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android devices to represent the full spectrum of technologies.

Our tests are conducted on current desktop and mobile devices using common browsers (e.g., Chrome, Firefox). Each analysis is quality-assured by a qualified second person to guarantee valid and reliable results.

Improve accessibility in a targeted manner

Accessibility is one of the key factors for digital offerings that reach everyone. But where do you start? A comprehensive accessibility audit is rarely the first step. It requires a clear goal and a fundamental understanding of accessibility. An accessibility quick check is often a better place to start: it gives you an overview of the accessibility of your offering. It helps you plan resources and next steps in a targeted manner.

With our accessibility quick checks and audits, we accompany you on your way to accessible digital solutions. We design everything in a practical way and tailored to your specific requirements.

During the accessibility audit, we thoroughly examine your digital products or services. You will receive a detailed analysis and specific recommendations for improving your offering.

We comprehensively test your website, app, software, hardware, or documents using a representative sample. The test is based on the WCAG and EN 301 549 standards.

Analysis of technical, design, and content aspects, such as:

• Compatibility with assistive technologies (e.g., screen readers, Braille displays)
• Accessibility of forms, interactive elements, and media content
• Checking perceptibility, operability, comprehensibility, and robustness

Detailed test report with:

• Overview of all identified barriers
• Recommendations for optimization
• Instructions for implementing the measures

• The initial optimizations are complete. Now you need an in-depth accessibility analysis.
• Your project is subject to legal requirements such as BITV 2.0 or BFSG.
• You want to make your digital offerings permanently accessible.

Important: An audit reveals existing barriers. Implementing the solutions requires resources that are often still lacking. A quick check or an accessibility statement first lay the groundwork. These approaches help to clearly identify the necessary resources.
