Post-FTC accessibility, done honestly.

Real accessibility
for real WordPress sites.

reala11y fixes code-level WCAG 2.2 AA issues at the source — skip links, focus, language, labels, target-size — and pairs the work with AI alt-text you control. It is not an overlay widget.

Automated tools, including ours, typically detect 30–40% of WCAG failures by criteria. Full conformance requires manual review.

The honest case for code-level remediation

Overlay widgets didn't work.
Real fixes go in the HTML.

On April 21, 2025, the Federal Trade Commission entered a final order against accessiBe — a $1,000,000 penalty plus a 20-year reporting obligation — for claiming their overlay made websites WCAG compliant. Courts have ruled the same. Yet most "accessibility plugins" still ship overlays.

How it works

Scan. Fix. Report.

  1. 01 — Scan

    WCAG 2.2 rule library

    We crawl your posts, pages, and theme output and flag issues across 22 WCAG rules — language attribute, alt text, color contrast, heading hierarchy, target size (WCAG 2.2 new), link purpose, and more. All free.

  2. 02 — Fix

    Code-level remediation

    Toggle on the fixes you want. Safe, code-level changes go into the HTML itself — a skip link, focus outlines, a main landmark, and target-size padding at render time; noopener attributes, duplicate ids, and positive tabindex cleaned up in your content. One-click rollback, always.

  3. 03 — Report

    Generate a statement, not a guarantee

    Produce a customizable accessibility statement and a VPAT starter. We won't tell you you're "fully compliant." We will give you the documentation you need to take to your legal team.

Works with the WordPress you already have

Theme- and builder-agnostic.

reala11y rewrites the rendered HTML at filter time — so it works wherever your content is published. Tested across the most-installed builders and themes; compatible with the rest by construction.

Why trust reala11y

Honesty is the whole pitch.

reala11y launched in June 2026, so we won’t show you a wall of five-star reviews we don’t have yet. Here’s the real case for trusting it — held to the same honesty as our product claims.

  • Born from the accessiBe ruling

    We built reala11y after the FTC’s $1,000,000 order against accessiBe for marketing overlay AI as WCAG compliance. We don’t make that claim — for them, or for us.

  • Honest about what automation does

    Automated tooling, ours included, catches roughly 30–40% of WCAG issues by criteria. reala11y fixes those in your code at the source and flags the rest for human review.

  • Free, open, and GPL-licensed

    The scanner and safe fixes are free on WordPress.org and GPL-licensed — no overlay, no lock-in. reala11y Pro adds agency multi-site management on top.

Reviews, when they’re real.

reala11y is brand new, so there are no reviews yet. Genuine WordPress.org and customer reviews will appear here as they come in — never fabricated.

Common questions

Frequently asked.

Does reala11y make my site WCAG compliant?

No automated tool can. reala11y identifies common WCAG 2.2 issues and applies code-level fixes. By criteria, automated tools detect approximately 30–40% of WCAG failures. The remainder requires manual review by an accessibility specialist.

How is this different from accessiBe or UserWay?

accessiBe and UserWay inject a JavaScript overlay that does not modify the underlying HTML. Screen readers continue to see the original, unfixed page. The FTC ordered accessiBe to pay $1 million on April 21, 2025 for marketing claims of automatic WCAG compliance. reala11y instead applies fixes to the actual HTML that browsers, screen readers, and crawlers see.

Do I have to use AI features?

No. Every AI feature is optional and bring-your-own-key: you add your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini API key, and your site talks to that provider directly. All 12 AI features are included in the free plugin; with no key configured, reala11y makes no AI calls. We never resell quota or store your API responses.

Is there a free version?

Yes — and it is the full product for a single site. The free plugin on WordPress.org includes the complete 22-rule WCAG 2.2 scanner, all 10 safe code-level auto-fixes, scheduled scans with email reports, and every BYOK AI feature, on unlimited sites. The one paid product is reala11y Pro (from $10/month), which adds cross-site management for agencies running a WordPress multisite network, in a Network / Growth / Team ladder.

How do I get support?

Payments go through Freemius (our merchant of record). Support is via email and the Freemius portal — we aim to respond within one business day.
