Website accessibility / privacy
See what your visitors run into, and what to fix first.
Lookful tests your sites the way people use them: rules, keyboard, clicks, menus and dialogs, cookies and consent. Then it turns hundreds of results into a short, ranked list with the fix for each, and tells you what changed next time.

Finds what rule-only scanners miss.
We ran Lookful against the UK Government Digital Service’s accessibility test pages: 142 barriers built in on purpose. Lookful found 68. Today’s axe-core rules on their own find about a quarter. 32 of the barriers Lookful found came from its interaction engine, AI review and keyboard test, which rule-only scanners don’t run.

48 checks, in eight families.
Every one is listed, with what it looks for and the WCAG criteria it relates to.
01
Automated accessibility rules
The full axe-core rule set for WCAG 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 at levels A and AA, plus best practices.
8 checks
02
Keyboard test
Lookful tabs through each page like a keyboard user does.
4 checks
03
Interaction engine
Lookful uses the page: it clicks, presses keys, hovers and opens things, then checks what a keyboard or screen reader user would get.
8 checks
04
Menus, dialogs and pop-ups
Up to six menus, dialogs, chat, tour and search panels are opened on each page and tested in their open state.
4 checks
05
AI review
A vision model reads each page’s accessibility tree and screenshot for problems rules can’t judge.
5 checks
06
Cookies, trackers and consent
What the site does before a visitor chooses, after they accept, and after they reject.

07
Site-wide checks
Things every site should have, beyond a single page.

How it works
From a scan to a short list of fixes.
01
Add a site, pick its pages
Lookful reads your sitemap, folds repeating templates into one example and recommends the pages that matter. Up to 10 per site.
02
It scans like a visitor
A real browser loads each page, tabs through it, opens its menus and dialogs, tries its controls, and runs it before consent, after accept and after reject.
03
Fix the worst first
Results become one row per issue type, ranked by severity and reach, each with the element, page, screenshot and fix. Rescan weekly or monthly to see what’s new and what’s resolved.
What you get for each site.
A risk score that means something
0 to 100, weighted by severity and how many pages each issue reaches. A shared header problem counts once, not once per page. With a trend line across scans.
Issues grouped by type
“Images must have alternative text · 27 places on 7 pages”, not 270 separate cards. Open a type to see each element, page and screenshot.
Fix plans
Developer-ready changes for the top issues: steps, before and after code, who owns it (you or a vendor) and how to check it worked.
Reports to share
An executive report and PDF: score, top issues with recommended fixes, issues by platform or widget, what couldn’t be checked, and a dated scan log.
Monitoring
Weekly or monthly rescans with new and resolved issues counted each time, so you can show progress, and catch regressions.
An honest accessibility statement
Generated from your latest scan, in plain language. It commits to WCAG 2.2 AA, names known problems and third-party widgets, and never claims conformance.
No overlay. No compliance claims.
Accessibility overlays add a widget to your site and promise to fix it automatically. In 2025 the FTC ordered one of the best-known overlay companies to pay $1 million over claims that its AI tool could make any website WCAG compliant.
Lookful works the other way round. It changes nothing on your site, finds the problems in your actual code and tells you how to fix them there, and it flags overlays it finds, because they don’t fix the code and can get in the way of the assistive technology people already use.
For apartment communities
Leasing checks and fee transparency insights.
Set a site up as an apartment community and Lookful adds leasing checks: floor plan search results that screen readers never hear, and apply or pay-rent flows that live on a leasing platform.
The fee transparency add-on reads how your pages present rent and fees and shows where a listing leaves out mandatory fees, with the evidence quoted, so you can move toward all-in pricing. $10 per site per month.
Questions people ask first.
More on pricing and what automated testing can’t do.
Does a clean scan mean my site is compliant?
No, and Lookful never says so. Automated testing finds a large share of real problems, but some barriers can only be judged by a person, ideally with assistive technology. Lookful finds what it can, labels what needs a human look, lists what it couldn’t check, and helps you write an honest accessibility statement.
Do I need to install anything on my site?
No. Lookful visits your pages from the outside, like a visitor, using a real Chrome browser. There’s no script, plugin or widget to add, and it never changes your site.
Will scanning submit forms or change anything?
No. To test error messages, Lookful presses submit on empty forms, but every request that would send data, every navigation away and every pop-up is blocked first. Nothing leaves the page. It never leaves your domain, and it identifies itself as LookfulBot.
How many pages does a scan cover?
Up to 10 pages per site, picked from your sitemap. Lookful groups repeating template pages (blog posts, product or floor plan pages) so one example covers the template, and recommends the pages that matter most: home, contact, forms, policies and key landing pages.
What does AI do, and can I trust it?
AI reviews things rules can’t judge, such as whether alt text is useful or a link says where it goes. Those findings are labelled “needs review” with a confidence score, must point at a real element, and never change your risk score. AI also drafts fix plans, which follow the same rules: no overlays, no compliance claims.
