PACT's free audit covers basic compliance checks only. Advanced features? Those'll cost you later.
PACT scans your website for ADA accessibility requirements. GDPR privacy rules. WCAG 2.1 standards. All at once. You paste in a URL and wait 2-5 minutes for results. No registration needed — saves time when you're juggling multiple client sites.
Say you're a web developer who just launched an e-commerce site for a small retailer. PACT checks if your images have alt text. It validates color contrast ratios. Tests keyboard navigation. It also reviews cookie consent mechanisms and data collection transparency. Issues get flagged fast.
First ADA violations can hit you with a $75K penalty.
Reports break down problems by priority. Screen reader compatibility gets tested alongside SSL implementation. You'll see exactly what needs fixing rather than hunting through vague compliance guidelines.
Digital accessibility consultant managing several nonprofit websites? This fits your workflow. Unlimited scans across different domains. No accounts to create or subscriptions to manage. PACT combines three major compliance areas that usually require separate tools.
AI analysis doesn't replace manual testing entirely. Some nuanced accessibility issues need human judgment. But for catching obvious violations like missing alt text or poor contrast ratios, it does the grunt work. Most websites have accessibility problems anyway — WebAIM found issues on 96% of sites they tested.
