The deadlines
April 2027
Large public entities.
April 2028
Smaller public entities.
Which date applies to a given entity, and the related federal health-funding rule, is set out in the US section of the compliance guide. The enforcement bodies are listed in our accessibility enforcement directory.
Private litigation runs alongside the dates
5,000+ website accessibility lawsuits were filed in US federal and state courts in 2025 (UsableNet 2026 lawsuit trends report). The Title II dates fix when a technical standard becomes mandatory for public entities; private suits do not wait for them.
What Pallas does before the date
Pallas is an accessibility remediation platform for organisations that enterprise vendors have priced out.
Find
Scans web pages and PDF, DOCX, and PPTX documents against WCAG 2.2 criteria. 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. Pallas scans server-rendered pages; support for JavaScript-rendered applications is on the roadmap.
Fix
Routes every finding through a workflow: status, owner, comments, evidence attachment, retest, and an exceptions register.
Prove
Keeps a tamper-evident audit log (SHA-256) of what you scanned, what you found, and what you fixed, and generates a VPAT 2.5 / ACR from the platform.
Procurement documents
The VPAT, DPA, security whitepaper, and the rest of the documents a procurement review asks for are published on the Procurement page.
