Overlay Widgets Don't Work. In Fact, They Make It Worse.

AccessiBe, UserWay, and every other overlay solution patches over your broken code without fixing it. Courts don't care about widgets — they care about WCAG compliance.

22%

of all ADA lawsuits in recent years targeted websites that had an overlay widget already installed. The widget didn't protect them.

30%

Automated scanners — including overlay AI — detect fewer than 30% of WCAG violations. The rest are only found by human review.

$0

Legal protection provided by overlay software. Courts have consistently ruled that a widget does not equal compliance. You're still liable.

Four Services. One Goal: Zero Legal Exposure.

We don't slap a widget on your site. We fix your code — manually, thoroughly, and with full documentation to defend you in court if needed.

Everything You Need to Know

Can't I just install AccessiBe or UserWay to become compliant?
▾
No — and this is one of the most dangerous misconceptions in e-commerce. Overlay widgets like AccessiBe, UserWay, and AudioEye inject a JavaScript layer on top of your website that tries to fix accessibility problems on the fly. But courts have consistently found that these tools do not constitute WCAG compliance. More critically, 22%+ of ADA lawsuits in recent years have been filed against websites that had an overlay widget installed. The widget provides zero legal protection and, in some cases, has been cited as evidence of awareness of accessibility issues without meaningful remediation.
I received an ADA demand letter. What do I do?
▾
Don't panic — but do act quickly. Demand letters typically give you 30–60 days to remediate before legal action. Contact us immediately. Our emergency response team begins within 48 hours of engagement, and we can deliver a complete remediation with attorney-ready documentation in under 14 days. We've handled dozens of demand letter situations. The worst thing you can do is install an overlay widget, ignore it, or wait.
What exactly is WCAG 2.1 AA and why does it matter?
▾
WCAG stands for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines — the international standard for web accessibility published by the W3C. The "AA" level is the middle tier (between A and AAA) and is the standard courts use to evaluate ADA compliance. It covers 50+ specific success criteria covering visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive accessibility. The DOJ has formally adopted WCAG 2.1 AA as the operative standard for Title III ADA compliance, meaning that meeting it is your best legal defense.
Will your remediation work with my Shopify theme and apps?
▾
Yes. We work exclusively with Shopify, so we're deeply familiar with Dawn, Debut, Impulse, Turbo, and every major theme framework. We also audit and remediate common third-party apps like review apps, loyalty apps, and pop-up tools that often introduce new accessibility violations. Our work is done in a staging environment, fully tested, then deployed — your live store is never at risk during remediation.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance after remediation?
▾
Yes, and we strongly recommend it. Every new blog post, product, app install, or theme update can introduce new accessibility violations. Our monthly monitoring plan starts at $297/month and includes automated scans, manual spot checks, violation fix deployment, and quarterly compliance health reports. The Professional plan includes three months of free monitoring. Annual re-certification is also available.
Does the April 2026 DOJ Title II deadline affect my business?
▾
Title II specifically covers state and local government entities — municipalities, school districts, public universities, and government agencies. If you operate in this space or sell to these organizations, the April 2026 deadline is directly relevant to you. Private businesses are covered under ADA Title III, which has been actively enforced through litigation for years. We serve both segments, and our compliance documentation is built to satisfy both frameworks.
