AccessIQ is a free WordPress accessibility plugin that combines three tools most sites pay separately for — an automated WCAG 2.1 & 2.2 accessibility checker , a self-hosted click heatmap engine , and behavior analytics — all inside a single dark-themed dashboard, with no data leaving your server.
Please note: automated checks find many common problems (missing alt text, empty links, skipped headings, missing page language, form labels, contrast and more) but cannot prove that a site conforms to WCAG. Treat the score as a guide and complement it with manual testing (keyboard, screen reader, content review).
No API keys. No subscriptions. No third-party services for core features.

Why WordPress Sites Need an Accessibility Scanner
ADA and EAA lawsuits are rising. Any publicly accessible website can be targeted — and “we didn’t know” is not a legal defense. WCAG 2.1 conformance is increasingly referenced by law across the US, EU, and UK.
Inaccessible sites lose real users. 1 in 4 adults has a disability that affects how they use the web. An inaccessible checkout button or unlabeled form field directly costs you conversions.
Most tools only tell you there’s a problem. AccessIQ shows you exactly which element failed, why it failed, and what to fix.
