About this project

The European Accessibility Act requires a lot of businesses to make their sites accessible and publish a conformance statement. A11y Shield crawls a whole site rather than just the homepage, audits every page with a real accessibility engine, scores it against the standard, writes the statement and a fix plan, then watches for regressions on each deploy. Still in build, not taking sign-ups yet.

What I set out to do

Crawl an entire site and audit every page for real accessibility problems, not just the homepage.
Score sites against the EAA and EN 301 549 standard in a way a non-developer can understand and act on.
Generate the legally required accessibility statement as both a hosted page and a downloadable PDF.
Produce a remediation plan that lists every issue with severity and effort estimates so a team can work through it systematically.
Monitor for regressions on every deploy, so a passing score has to be maintained rather than just reached once.

What I built

A complete audit engine covering crawling, per-page analysis, scoring and statement generation, built as a Next.js app with a separate headless-browser worker.
A scoring model designed to be stable and meaningful rather than a raw count of violations.
Automated output of both the hosted accessibility statement page and a PDF, plus an exportable remediation plan.
Regression monitoring baked in so that passing a check is the start of compliance, not the end of it.
Multi-tenant architecture with per-organisation data separation from the ground up.
