Week: 2026-W29 · Report date: 2026-07-24
3333 pages scanned; axe-core ran on 3136 pages, Siteimprove Alfa on 1550 pages.
Note: Automated tools find roughly a third of real barriers. This report must be supplemented with manual AT testing and user research before making conformance claims. “Supports” means no automated failure was detected this week, not that the criterion is fully met.
