An honest UserWay alternative

UserWay is an overlay: a snippet you drop onto your site that adds an accessibility menu and adjusts a few things at runtime (font size, contrast presets, and similar). It can help some users tweak the display, but it does not fix the underlying accessibility problems in your HTML, and it does not make your site WCAG compliant.

The accessibility community is broadly sceptical of overlays. The widely cited Overlay Fact Sheet is signed by hundreds of accessibility practitioners who recommend against relying on them, and sites using overlays have appeared in a growing share of accessibility lawsuits rather than avoiding them.

This tool is not an overlay and adds nothing to your site. It renders your page in a real browser, runs axe-core against WCAG 2.2 A and AA, and shows every failing element, its WCAG success criterion, and its conformance level. The report is a shareable link with no email gate, and it is honest about coverage: automated testing catches the machine-checkable issues, and it flags clearly what still needs a human.

An accessibility menu is not the same as an accessible site. Correct alt text, real form labels, sufficient colour contrast, and proper headings live in your code, and that is where they need to be fixed. Use a scan to find them, fix at the source, and re-scan to confirm. The same engine also runs as a browser extension, a CLI and GitHub Action for CI, and an MCP server, so regressions get caught before they ship.
