SOFTWARE. A CLOUD SUBSCRIPTION. NOTHING TO INSTALL.
Software that finds what is broken and walks you through fixing it.
For companies that cannot afford the enterprise accessibility platforms, which start at roughly $25,000 a year. You check your website, Pallas tells you what is not working for your customers and how to put it right, and you check again afterwards to see whether the fix worked. From US$149 a month.
What Pallas is
Pallas is software, a cloud subscription. Nothing to install.
It is a subscription that helps smaller companies who cannot afford the enterprise platforms. It walks the person who buys it through checking their website: what is not working, what causes problems for their customers, especially customers with disabilities, like someone with low vision or using a screen reader. It tells them exactly what needs to change and how to fix it, and it keeps track of everything so they can retest afterwards and see whether the fix worked or whether it needs more work.
Who it is for
Companies that want to do the right thing and have no clue what that is, where to start, or how to reach it financially. Enterprise accessibility platforms in this category start at roughly $25,000 to $150,000 or more per year, which is why organisations below that size are unserved rather than badly served.
What you do with it
Check your site. Read what needs to change and how to change it. Give each problem to whoever can fix it. Check again afterwards, so you can see whether the fix worked or whether it needs more work.
Why bother
More of your customers can finish what they came to do. If you also have a legal obligation, the reports show where you stand: a documented record of what you scanned, what you found and what you fixed, which is what a procurement team or a regulator asks for.
What it costs
From US$149 a month. Pallas starts at three team members and scales to fifty. Prices are listed in US dollars. If you are paying from outside the United States, Stripe Checkout may show and charge an equivalent amount in your local currency at its own conversion rate.
The limits, stated here because they travel with every capability claim on this site: automated scanning covers the criteria that can be machine-tested. A manual review checklist covers the rest, because most of WCAG cannot be verified by software. Section 508 and EN 301 549 mappings are derived from the WCAG scan. Pallas scans server-rendered pages; support for JavaScript-rendered applications is on the roadmap.
The difference
A free checker tells you something failed. It does not tell you why, or what to do about it.
Pallas says what failed, why it matters to the person using your site, how to put it right, and who on your team should do it. Then it checks whether it actually got fixed. A finding that is not fixed goes back to the beginning rather than being quietly dropped.
Not a Widget
Not an overlay. A defensible audit trail.
An accessibility overlay is a JavaScript widget you paste onto a site. It runs in the visitor's browser and tries to patch the page on the fly; it does not change the underlying HTML your site actually ships. Regulators and courts have increasingly found that an overlay does not make a site compliant, and it does not stop lawsuits.
The FTC has already acted
In April 2025 the Federal Trade Commission approved a final order requiring the overlay vendor accessiBe to pay $1,000,000 over claims that its AI-powered widget could make any website WCAG-compliant. The FTC found those claims were, in its words, "false, misleading, or unsubstantiated."
Widgets do not stop lawsuits
According to the AudioEye 2026 Web Accessibility Litigation Report, 38.5% of businesses that were sued already had a widget-based accessibility solution in place. The widget did not prevent the claim, because it never fixed the underlying barriers.
What Pallas does instead.
Pallas scans your actual pages and documents against the WCAG 2.2 Level AA, Section 508, and EN 301 549 success criteria, tracks every finding through a remediation workflow, and keeps a tamper-evident audit trail with configurable retention. Section 508 and EN 301 549 mappings are derived from the WCAG scan. The result is a documented record for a procurement team or a regulator: what you scanned, what you found, and what you fixed.

Report & Review
Generate executive summaries and practitioner reports. Export PDFs and CSVs.
Core Features
What Pallas does
Remediation Workspace
Track findings through the lifecycle: open, in progress, needs review, retest, passed, closed.
Multi-Standard Scanning
Each scan runs against the profile you choose: WCAG 2.2 A, AA, or AAA, Section 508, or EN 301 549. Section 508 and EN 301 549 mappings are derived from the WCAG scan.
Document Accessibility
Analyze PDFs and DOCX files for accessibility issues, not just websites.
Governance & Compliance
Audit trails, exceptions register, compliance readiness dashboard, retention policies.
Team Workflow
Assign findings by team role. Design, Frontend, Content, QA. Everyone knows what to fix.
Executive Reporting
Generate reports for leadership. PDF export, CSV data, compliance snapshots.
Section 508 and EN 301 549 mappings are derived from the WCAG scan. Automated scanning covers the criteria that can be machine-tested; a manual review checklist covers the rest.
Built on Three Pillars
Accessibility. Compliance. Security.
Accessibility
WCAG 2.2 AA is the floor for the platform itself, and our accessibility statement names where we are still only partially compliant.
Compliance
Every action logged. Every exception documented. Every report a snapshot. Built for audit readiness.
Security
OAuth-only authentication. Row-level security. Source files analyzed and discarded. Your data stays yours.
