Accessible.org offers single, one-time WCAG 2.1 AA audits at a reasonable cost.
Audits are performed manually by a web accessibility expert.
Turnaround time for audit delivery is typically between 2-4 weeks (this varies based on your project’s complexity / size and our current number of work orders.
Cost
The price of an audit starts at $3,500 and typically ranges up to $7,500 (although a larger project can be more).
The more dynamic or complex your asset’s URLs / screens are, the more the price increases.
A price quote can typically be provided within 2-3 business days.
If any URLs / screens are non-public facing, we will need a login.
If any actions or purchases are required, we will need a test account. You will need to supply the item to be purchased and add the cost to your order payment.

Re-Audits
An audit for the same digital asset can be purchased at a 60% discount for most orders*.
The significant discount is available because we will already be familiar with the asset (e.g., website, app, software, etc.) and its accessibility issues.
*If the asset notably changes or for any reason more work than is expected is involved, the cost will have to be determined.
