WHY MANUAL
A manual audit vs no manual audit
Automated scanners catch a fraction of the issues that put your site at legal risk. Real compliance needs real experts. Here’s the difference between a site audited manually and one that wasn’t.
A false sense of compliance
- Up to 70% of WCAG issues are invisible to automated scanners
- Screen reader and keyboard journeys are never properly validated
- Findings come without context, severity, or fix guidance
- No documentation that holds up under legal scrutiny
- Exposure to ADA, EAA and Section 508 claims you didn’t see coming
The full picture, audit-ready
- Every WCAG, ADA and EAA criterion checked by certified experts
- Real assistive-technology testing, not just automated rules
- Each finding scored by severity with clear remediation steps
- Audit-ready report you can hand to legal, procurement, or auditors
- Monthly monitoring so new issues don’t sneak in unnoticed
HOW IT WORKS
The four steps from audit to compliance
How our manual audit identifies every accessibility issue on your site — and keeps it that way throughout the year.
-
Perform the manual audit
Our team reviews your website using manual testing, automated scans, and assistive technologies — covering every WCAG, ADA, and EAA criterion that applies.
-
Deliver accessibility findings
We deliver a detailed report with every finding, severity, and remediation guidance — reviewed live with your team so nothing gets lost in translation.
-
Review implemented fixes
Once your team rolls out the fixes, we recheck the implementation, validate the changes, and provide additional feedback if anything still needs work.
-
Maintain accessibility compliance
After validation, we provide formal confirmation of compliance and turn on ongoing monitoring — so you stay accessible throughout the year, not just on audit day.
LONG-TERM COMPLIANCE
Audits aren’t a one-time event — compliance is ongoing
Websites change. New pages get published, content gets updated, layouts evolve. Tabnav’s monitoring platform scans your site on a monthly basis — flagging new accessibility issues the moment they appear, so you never go from audited to non-compliant overnight.
Monthly automated scans
Our monitoring platform performs deep accessibility scans across every audited template every 30 days — without you having to lift a finger.
Issue alerts, year-round
The moment a new accessibility issue is detected, you’re notified and our team gets to work — before users encounter it.
Monthly reports
Clear, shareable reports landing in your inbox each month — what changed, what was fixed, where your site stands on compliance.
Recheck after fixes
When your team ships fixes, we recheck the work, validate compliance, and update your audit report — included throughout your plan.
Month 1
Manual audit & detailed report
Months 2–11
Monthly scans, alerts, recheck after fixes
Month 12
Annual audit review & renewal
VPAT
Procurement-ready VPAT, on request

- WCAG 2.2 AA conformance documented
