AccessHawk scans any public webpage and generates a detailed WCAG compliance report in seconds. Unlike traditional rule-based scanners that only catch ~30% of accessibility issues, AccessHawk combines:

• Google Lighthouse for deterministic rule-based checks
• AI Vision Models for contextual analysis of user experience, visual hierarchy, and semantic meaning

The result is a comprehensive report that catches issues traditional scanners miss—like alt text that exists but doesn't actually describe the image, or navigation that's technically valid but confusing to use.

• Full WCAG Coverage — Analyze against WCAG 2.0, 2.1, and 2.2 standards
• Conformance Levels — Choose Level A, AA, or AAA requirements
• Multi-Page Scans — Scan up to 5 URLs in a single batch (Pro+)
• Scheduled Scans — Automate daily, weekly, or monthly scans with email notifications
• Custom Headers — Scan authenticated pages with cookies or bearer tokens (Team)

• Multiple AI Models — Choose from Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT-4o, Google Gemini, xAI Grok, and more
• Lighthouse Integration — Deterministic checks combined with AI analysis
• Full-Page Screenshots — Visual reference captured with every scan
• Severity Ratings — Issues categorized as Critical, Major, Minor, or Best Practice

• Detailed Findings — Each issue includes location, WCAG criteria, and remediation steps
