You can migrate your website to our latest platform, where all sites natively implement the WCAG standards. There are still things you must do yourself to make sure your content is compliant, e.g. give descriptive titles to your images, make sure video is closed caption, make sure documents with images are captioned, choose colors that have sufficient contrast, etc. If you are not ready to migrate your website to our platform, or you just want extra layer of liability protection, we can also install a third party plugin that uses Artificial Intelligence to render your site compliant.
