No. Automated scanning catches a large share of real-world issues - in Deque’s published audit dataset, automated testing identified 57.38% of recorded issues, including the violations most often cited in ADA lawsuits (missing alt text, contrast failures, missing labels). That is a share of issue volume, not of WCAG success criteria, and it cannot establish conformance. Manual testing by an accessibility specialist is still required. AllyProof clearly labels which criteria require manual review.

Automated rules target selected WCAG 2.2 A/AA failure patterns, including applicable earlier-version requirements. axe-core and HTML_CodeSniffer supply rule findings; APCA is a separate advisory contrast check. Page states and criteria requiring judgment need manual evaluation.

Browser tools are useful for inspecting a page. AllyProof Business brings automatic crawling, scheduled rechecks, issue history, AI fix suggestions and team workflows into one hosted workspace, within your site capacity and plan limits. You can share findings and prepare proprietary VPAT-based evidence drafts for evaluator review without assembling a monitoring system yourself.

AllyProof exports a proprietary VPAT-based evidence draft, not the official ITI form, a completed Accessibility Conformance Report or a certification. WCAG and INT drafts include the 55 active WCAG 2.2 A/AA criteria; 508 and EU drafts use their applicable standards. Automated evidence is prefilled where available. A qualified evaluator must complete manual testing and conformance decisions before procurement use.

Accessibility is not a standalone Google ranking factor and no accessibility tool can promise higher rankings. The work often improves foundations that help users and crawlers alike: semantic HTML, descriptive titles, text alternatives, meaningful headings, readable content, and mobile-friendly interaction. Treat better discoverability as a possible side benefit, not a compliance guarantee or ranking shortcut.

Free includes one website, an initial scan of up to 100 pages, then up to 25 pages per scan and 15 on-demand scans per month, automatic monthly rechecks, findings by severity, a shareable summary, the browser extension and 90 days of history. Business adds weekly monitoring, AI fix suggestions, reporting features, VPAT-based drafts, statement generation, team access and CSV export.

The Business trial requires a payment method. Unless you cancel within 14 days, billing begins at the selected plan’s rate. Cancellation and downgrades follow the billing terms; retained scan data remains subject to the applicable plan’s retention limits.

AllyProof tests WCAG 2.2 Level AA failure patterns and provides a proprietary draft mapping to EN 301 549 v3.2.1. That standard is harmonised for the Web Accessibility Directive and is widely used as technical guidance, but the current version is not an EAA-specific harmonised standard. EN 301 549 also contains non-web requirements that an automated URL scan cannot evaluate.
