02 — Cirv Guard
Accessibility you can prove, not paint over.
Cirv Guard scans the HTML your site actually ships and finds the WCAG 2.1 AA failures — missing alt text, broken heading order, low contrast. It's a real audit, not an overlay widget that bolts a toolbar on top and hopes.
What it does, and what it doesn't.
It audits real markup and tells you what to fix. It does not inject an overlay, fake a compliance badge, or promise legal immunity.
01
Alt-text checker
Flags every image missing meaningful alt text — and the decorative ones that should be empty, not described.
02
Heading audit
Maps your heading tree and catches skipped levels and multiple h1s — the structure screen readers depend on.
03
Contrast analysis
Checks text against its real background colour for the 4.5:1 AA ratio. No guessing, computed against rendered styles.
04
Full WCAG audit (Pro)
The complete 2.1 AA ruleset on a schedule you set, with a dated report you can hand a client or a regulator.
What a scan returns.
A plain list of real failures with the selector and the fix — not a score you can't action.

Frequently asked.
Is this an accessibility overlay?
No — and that's the point. Overlays inject a widget that the FTC and accessibility advocates have repeatedly called ineffective. Cirv Guard audits your real HTML and tells you what to fix in the source.
Does it guarantee legal compliance?
No tool can. It finds and helps you fix WCAG 2.1 AA failures, which is the standard most ADA and EAA cases reference. The dated report documents the work you did — useful, honest, not a magic shield.
Will it slow my site down?
No. Scans run in the admin, on demand or on a schedule. Nothing is added to your front-end — no script, no widget, no extra requests for your visitors.
