EAA & WCAG Compliance Resources
The European Accessibility Act is enforceable now. Here's how to actually comply.The EAA has been enforceable across all 27 EU member states since June 28, 2025, and the FTC's $1 million fine against the largest overlay-widget vendor closed the door on cosmetic fixes. This hub gathers everything we publish on real compliance: the human-tested audit service, a free automated scanner to get a first read on your site, and plain-language definitions of the terms that come up in every accessibility conversation.

Why this matters beyond the EU
The EAA applies to any business selling digital products or services to consumers in the EU — regardless of where the company itself is headquartered. For agencies and SaaS companies outside the EU with European clients or users, that means the obligation follows the customer, not the company's home market.
Frequently asked questions
If you sell digital products or services to consumers in the EU, the EAA applies to you regardless of where your company is headquartered — it's determined by your customers' location, not yours.
No. Automated tools catch only 30–40% of accessibility barriers. Our free scanner is a useful first read, but real compliance requires a human-tested audit with real assistive technology.
The FTC fined the largest overlay-widget vendor $1 million in January 2025 for deceptive claims that its tool made websites fully compliant. An overlay on a non-compliant site now documents that you knew about the problem and chose a cosmetic fix — we fix the underlying code instead.
