Accessibility, Simplified
Squidler’s Accessibility Guide gives you a simple, clear way to check and improve your site’s accessibility—no jargon, just results.
Making the Web Work for Everyone — Squidler’s Accessibility Guide (Early Access)
Let’s face it: accessibility often feels like one of those things you mean to get to, but rarely have time or clarity for. The standards are technical. The audits are expensive. And most tools assume you already know what to do.
That’s why we’re building something different.
Squidler’s new Accessibility Guide is a focused, actionable tool that helps you understand how accessible your site really is—and what you can do about it. No jargon. No ambiguity. Just a clear path to WCAG 2.1 AA compliance. And right now, we’re inviting a small group of early adopters to help test it before we launch.
Built for Busy Teams, Not Accessibility Experts
You shouldn’t need to be a specialist to build something inclusive. Our tool scans your site across dozens of accessibility checkpoints and breaks down the results in a way that makes sense:
- What’s working as intended
- What needs attention
- What’s failing—and how to fix it
The report is structured around the four WCAG principles:
Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, and Robust—so you’re not just fixing surface-level issues, you’re improving real user access.
And when you do want to go deeper, we give you direct references to the underlying WCAG guidelines, so your team can learn as it improves.
The Legal Landscape is Changing — Especially in the EU
Starting June 28, 2025, the European Accessibility Act (EAA) comes into force across the EU. It sets a harmonized standard for digital accessibility—and it’s not optional.The EAA applies to a broad range of digital services and products: websites, mobile apps, e-commerce platforms, banking services, ticket machines, and more. If you sell to, operate in, or serve users within the EU, this likely affects you.
In practical terms, that means:
- You need to meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards (via EN 301 549)
- You must provide accessibility statements and complaint mechanisms
- You’re liable for compliance—and at risk of fines or restrictions if you’re not
So yes, this is about doing the right thing—but it’s also about being ready for what’s coming.
Progress Over Perfection
We built this tool to support teams who care, but don’t have unlimited time or resources. You don’t need to fix everything overnight. What matters is having a reliable way to assess where you are, and take steps forward—confidently, and with purpose.
The Accessibility Guide is designed to support that journey. No fluff, no pressure. Just clear, structured help.
