Autonomous accessibility auditing

Accessibility auditingin the agentic era.

Allya conducts the audit as a continuous process: she observes the digital service, interprets RGAA, operates the interface, and produces evidence teams can act on directly.

The audit will not start until you confirm it.

The change in scale

The audit changes scale.

Accessibility calls for deep expertise, a rigorous method, and many successive checks. The agentic era brings these operations into one system capable of conducting the analysis from end to end.

Sequential expertise1 to 2 weeks

Sampling, RGAA grid, assistive-technology checks, issue qualification, recommendations, and restitution by a specialist.

Audit conducted by AllyaAgentic execution

Allya connects observation, interpretation, action, and evidence production in one coherent, traceable process.

01Observe

Render the service exactly as it is delivered.

02Interpret

Connect code, meaning, context, and RGAA requirements.

03Operate

Navigate by keyboard, handle components, and follow journeys.

04Document

Explain the impact, cause, evidence, and correction.

Accessibility, in practice

Digital barriers limit autonomy.

An accessible interface lets disabled people perceive information, understand what is asked, navigate, and act independently. When it fails, an application, purchase, job, or public service can become impossible to use.

01

An unnamed button makes the action invisible to a screen reader.

02

A keyboard trap can block an entire journey without a mouse.

03

An ambiguous instruction can prevent someone from understanding or correcting an error.

04

A video without captions withholds information from deaf and hard-of-hearing people.

The goal is simple: enable everyone to access the service and act independently.

The French framework

RGAA provides a shared method for conformance.

The Référentiel général d’amélioration de l’accessibilité turns international requirements into criteria and operational tests for the French context. It examines images, color, media, tables, scripts, forms, navigation, and much more.

Conformance is demonstrated on a representative sample, through evidence and defensible decisions. Allya performs that method and preserves the traceability of every conclusion.

The method

One agent. Four layers of understanding.

Allya combines deterministic testing, regulatory expertise, contextual reasoning, and real interaction. Each layer informs the next, producing evidence that reflects how people actually use the interface.

01

See what is actually shipped

Allya observes the page in an isolated environment and runs deterministic checks across code, structure, and presentation.

02

Apply the RGAA method

Tests specific to the French framework complete general-purpose engines and keep every conclusion connected to its requirement.

03

Understand the context

She reasons about meaning, relationships, and relevance—what a rule alone cannot decide without understanding the interface.

04

Verify the action remains possible

Allya operates controls, follows focus, and completes journeys to detect barriers that only appear in use.

The deliverable

A complete remediation case file.

Every finding should answer four questions: who is blocked, from which action, for what reason, and how to repair it. Allya also preserves the criterion, affected element, and observed evidence.

  • The impact on someone’s autonomy, expressed without jargon.
  • The technical or editorial cause, tied to the affected component.
  • A correction the team can prioritize and verify.

The purpose

Conformance is the evidence. Autonomy is the goal.

A useful report connects every failure to what it prevents someone from doing: reading, understanding, choosing, entering, validating, or completing a task. That is how teams can prioritize and remove the barriers that exclude most.

Testing with disabled people complements this technical evidence and evaluates the real quality of the experience.
