What is PageGuard?

PageGuard is a free website accessibility checker that tests WCAG 2.1 AA compliance and ADA Title II requirements in ~30 seconds — no signup required.

Why it fits in the Web Accessibility section

The Web Accessibility section currently has 2 entries covering guidelines and community resources. PageGuard complements these with a practical tool that frontend developers can use to:

  • Test WCAG 2.1 AA compliance — checks color contrast, alt text, ARIA labels, keyboard navigation, HTML lang attributes, and form labels
  • Get an actionable score — returns a 0–100 accessibility score with specific issues and plain-English fix recommendations
  • Scan any public URL — free, no account required, results in ~30 seconds
  • Meet the ADA Title II deadline — April 24, 2026 federal deadline for government websites to comply with WCAG 2.1 AA
