Accessibility audit
For teams that can implement the findings themselves and need a report, priorities and a findings walkthrough.
An accessibility audit your team can act on.
Colabs audits websites and web applications for barriers affecting keyboard and screen-reader users, people who enlarge text, and anyone who needs a clearer interface. You receive a prioritised issue list showing what is wrong, who it affects and how to fix it. We can also implement and retest the fixes.
Accessibility audits from €1.250 excl. VAT. Receive a fixed scope and price within two working days.

Start with an audit at any stage.
You can audit a live website, a web application, a redesign in progress or a set of reusable components.
We select pages, components and tasks based on unique templates, frequency, risk and known concerns. Authenticated areas and different user roles can be included when they are part of the agreed scope.
Within that scope, we assess findings against WCAG 2.2 Level AA through manual checks supported by automated tools. The audit covers the agreed sample; it does not claim that every page in the full product conforms.
European Accessibility Act
Technical support for EAA and WCAG questions
The European Accessibility Act has applied to covered products and services since 28 June 2025. Its relevance depends on the service, sector and circumstances of the organisation.
Colabs provides technical accessibility support rather than legal advice. We can show where the interface falls short of relevant WCAG criteria and what your team can change.

Preparing an accessibility statement?
Use the accessibility statement helper to create a practical first draft with space for status, known limitations, feedback and review details.
The helper is only a starting point. A published statement should be based on real findings, known exceptions and the requirements that apply to your organisation.
Use the statement helperWhat you receive
- An issue list covering the agreed pages, components and user tasks
- The affected element, user impact and WCAG reference for each finding
- A priority, expected behaviour and recommended direction for the fix
- A clear distinction between shared component problems and page-specific content issues
- A findings walkthrough with the people who will implement the work
What the manual review covers
- Keyboard navigation, focus order and visible focus
- Screen-reader structure, names and announcements
- Forms, validation and error messages
- Navigation, dialogs and dynamic components
- Colour contrast, text enlargement and responsive reflow
- HTML semantics and appropriate ARIA use
Transparent starting prices
Typical audit scopes and prices
These examples show the likely order of cost. Every proposal defines the exact sample, test method and deliverables before work starts.
| Scope | Suitable for | Price excl. VAT |
|---|---|---|
| Focused audit | A small informational website or one tightly defined service journey and its shared components. | From €1.250 |
| Standard audit | Several page types, important user journeys and the shared components used across them. | Typically €2.500 |
| Complex audit | Authenticated services, multiple applications, complex interactions or a larger test sample. | From €4.000 |
Prices apply to an agreed representative sample, not every URL in the service. A first retest usually costs 25–30% of the original audit. Advice or implementation support outside the fixed scope is €90 per hour.

Audit with remediation
For teams that want Colabs to implement agreed frontend fixes. A focused retest then checks whether the reported issues were resolved; it is not a certification.
Public-sector website support
A practical guide to the Web Accessibility Directive, accessibility statements and support for new or existing public-sector websites.

You may not need a redesign.
Forms, navigation, focus behaviour and shared templates often affect many pages at once. Fixing those foundations can improve the current experience while a larger redesign or migration is still being planned.
More than 20 years of website work, including frontend and Drupal, helps us connect an audit finding to the code and component decisions behind it.
Process
What happens after you send the URL
1. Agree the sample
We identify the pages, components, roles and tasks that belong in the audit.
2. Receive a scope and estimate
Before work begins, you receive a written scope covering the sample, deliverables, timing, access needs and price.
3. Review and report
We perform the checks and deliver the issue list with priorities and implementation guidance.
4. Walk through the findings
Your team can ask questions before deciding who will implement and retest the fixes.

Send the website URL, target date and any known concerns. Within two working days, we confirm which scope fits and provide a fixed price. If the website falls outside the examples above, we explain why before proposing additional work.
