Is Your Website ADA Compliant or a Legal Risk Waiting to Happen?
If someone with a disability can’t use your website, your business could face an ADA complaint or lawsuit even if you installed an accessibility widget.
Why Accessibility Matters
Many business owners don’t realize that under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), websites must be accessible to all users, including those with disabilities.
A site may look fine visually, but if:
- Screen readers can’t interpret your content
- Forms aren’t navigable via keyboard
- Buttons and links lack proper labels
…your website could be legally non-compliant.
Accessibility is more than a visual fix—it requires correcting both the front-end (what users see) and back-end (the code assistive technologies rely on).
Why Overlays, Widgets, and Accessibility Plugins Do Not Solve Compliance
There are many products that claim to “make your website ADA compliant instantly” by adding a toolbar, AI overlay, or clickable accessibility widget.
Here's the truth
Overlays do not fix accessibility issues.
They:
- Sit on top of your site (like a filter)
- Try to “adjust” text or contrast dynamically
- Do not fix errors in the actual code
- Do not repair missing labels, incorrect navigation roles, or empty links
- Do not correct keyboard traps, form errors, or focus order issues
- Most importantly: Lawsuits target the code. Not the widget.
And the moment the overlay is disabled, blocked, or fails (which is common),
the website is still non-compliant underneath.
This is why legal and accessibility experts repeat:
Compliance requires correcting the code, not covering it.
The Current Standard: WCAG 2.1 & 2.2
WCAG 2.1 AA: The current legal baseline in the U.S., focusing on screen reader compatibility, keyboard navigation, proper form labeling, and color contrast. This is the baseline your website should meet today.
WCAG 2.2 AA: The emerging standard (released Oct 2023) expands accessibility for touchscreens, cognitive and memory-related disabilities, low vision, and limited dexterity.
Our goal is to ensure your site meets WCAG 2.1 AA now and is structurally prepared for WCAG 2.2 AA.
