What is a WCAG audit?

A WCAG audit is a systematic evaluation of a website against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1 Level AA). These international standards, published by the W3C, define 50 success criteria organized into 4 principles: Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, and Robust. In France, the RGAA framework translates these WCAG criteria into 106 concrete, testable requirements across 13 categories.

The goal of a WCAG audit is to determine your site's compliance rate: what percentage of applicable criteria are met. Since the European Accessibility Act (EAA) came into force in June 2025, this compliance has become a legal obligation for the vast majority of websites, with penalties of up to 50,000 € per violation.

What Scrutia tests: WCAG 2.1 AA criteria

Unlike basic scanners that only check 20-30% of criteria (mostly static HTML), Scrutia evaluates all WCAG 2.1 AA success criteria. Our AI-powered analysis engine performs real dynamic tests:

  • Keyboard navigation — real Tab traversal, keyboard trap detection, visible focus verification
  • ARIA components — menus, modals, tabs, accordions tested against APG patterns
  • Contrasts and colors — WCAG AA ratio verification on all visible elements
  • Forms — labels, error messages, label/input associations
  • Structure and semantics — heading hierarchy, ARIA landmarks, reading order

What you get for free

Scrutia's free audit immediately provides three essential pieces of information to understand your site's accessibility status:

  • Your WCAG compliance score — a clear percentage calculated on the criteria applicable to your site
  • The 3 most critical issues — ranked by severity (blocking, major, minor) with explanation
  • Category summary — your strengths and areas for improvement across all tested categories

A WCAG audit costs €3,000 to €15,000. Identify your issues upfront for free.

What the full report includes

If you want to go further, the full report at 149 € incl. VAT is a professional 20+ page PDF document that gives you everything you need to fix your site:

  • Every issue explained — which criterion is affected, why it's a problem, what impact on users
  • HTML/CSS/JS fix code — ready-to-paste fixes adapted to your existing code
  • Executive summary — a one-page summary to present results to management or clients
  • Prioritization guide — where to start to maximize the impact of your fixes

Why an automated pre-audit is useful

An official WCAG compliance audit, performed by a human expert, costs between €3,000 and €15,000 and takes several weeks. An automated pre-audit like Scrutia's lets you know your compliance level immediately, identify the most serious issues before engaging an expert, and provide your developers with concrete fixes for technical problems.

For many companies, the Scrutia pre-audit is sufficient to fix 80% of technical issues. For the remaining 20% — criteria that require human judgment — we recommend engaging an accessibility expert after applying Scrutia's fixes.

Frequently asked questions about the free WCAG audit

What does Scrutia's free WCAG audit include?
The free audit includes your WCAG compliance score (as a percentage), the 3 most critical issues ranked by severity (blocking, major, minor), and a summary by category showing all tested areas. You receive these results by email in 2 to 5 minutes.
How many WCAG criteria are actually tested?
Scrutia evaluates 106 criteria from the RGAA 4.1.2 framework, which maps directly to WCAG 2.1 Level AA success criteria across 13 categories: images, frames, colors, multimedia, tables, links, scripts, mandatory elements, structure, presentation, forms, navigation, and consultation. Criteria that cannot be evaluated automatically are flagged for manual review.
Is the free audit really free, with no strings attached?
Yes, 100% free, no credit card, no commitment. You enter your URL and email, and you receive your results. The paid full report is offered after the audit, but there is no obligation to purchase.
What is the difference between the free audit and the full report?
The free audit gives you the score and the 3 most critical issues. The full report (149 € incl. VAT) is a 20+ page PDF document containing a detailed explanation of each issue, copy-paste HTML/CSS/JS fix code for each problem, an executive summary for management, and a prioritization guide for fixes.
Can an automated WCAG audit replace a human audit?
An automated pre-audit like Scrutia's covers the technical part of WCAG: HTML structure, keyboard navigation, ARIA components, contrasts, forms. It detects objectively verifiable issues. However, some criteria (appropriate text alternatives, heading coherence) require human expert judgment. Scrutia identifies these criteria and flags them for manual review.
