EqualWeb Accessibility Crawler Extension

The EqualWeb Crawler is a real-time accessibility monitoring tool for WCAG 2.1 validation that scans entire websites. It is the only accessibility evaluation tool in the market that can scan behind login and password web pages.

The Crawler’s features make it a unique accessibility tool; you do not need to wait days for a full accessibility report but can get all results, including a compliance score, within minutes. The Crawler also provides, for subscription users, a comprehensive visual report about the website’s accessibility issues including instructions and guidance on how to fix them.

Use the Crawler to maintain a 100% compliance stance all year round.

To start using the Web Accessibility Crawler, download it from the Google Store and install it on your Chrome browser. Next, enter the URL of the domain you wish to scan.

The real-time automatic scan will flag static and dynamic accessibility issues on your HTML pages filtered by the WCAG 2.1 A/AA/AAA conformance level. At the end of the process, you will be able to access the accessibility report, which includes guidelines on how to fix issues, the precise pages where the issues and errors exist, accessibility issues with and without accessibility enhancement tools, and the overall compliance score. The reports are saved under your “My scans” tab.
