If you run a Shopify store on your own, you've probably already done the thing where you open five tabs of free tools, run them all on your homepage, and end up with five different reports that contradict each other. One tool says you have 14 issues, another says 47, a third says your site is fine, and none of them tell you which ones actually matter for a store that sells coffee beans or skincare or handmade ceramics.
That's not a you problem. It's the tools. Free scanners are great at surfacing raw findings and terrible at interpreting them. An alt text warning on your site logo is not the same category of problem as your Add to Cart button being unreachable by keyboard, but a Lighthouse report will list them three items apart in the same red section.
Here's the pattern we see on Shopify stores, over and over, across dozens of audits: product images without alt text (easy fix, huge impact), announcement bars with contrast failures against the theme palette, newsletter signup fields in the footer with no visible label, filter chips on collection pages rendered as naked divs with no role or keyboard handling, carousels that trap focus, and modal popups that don't return focus when closed. Those six patterns cover something like 80% of what we flag on any given Shopify audit. We already know what to look for.
That's the entire pitch for paying us instead of running free tools yourself. You are not hiring us for the scan — the scan is commodity. You are hiring us because we've already read a hundred of these reports and we know which three lines matter on yours.
Questions Shopify store owners ask us
Do I need to give you admin access to my Shopify store?
No. We audit what your customers see — the public-facing storefront — and that's what matters for both conversion and compliance. No admin login, no staff account, no collaborator invite. Just your URL.
Will you fix things yourself, or just tell me what's broken?
We deliver the prioritized list and the explanation. You can fix it yourself (a surprising amount of what we find is copy-and-paste alt text work), hand the list to your existing developer, or hire us separately for implementation if you'd rather not think about it. The audit report is purpose-built to be handed off cleanly, so your dev doesn't have to retranslate it.
What if my theme is the problem?
We flag theme-level issues as a separate category in the report, because they change the math. If 40% of your findings come from the theme itself, sometimes upgrading to a newer version of that theme (or switching to a more accessible one) is cheaper than custom fixes. We'll tell you which bucket you're in.
Do you work with WordPress, WooCommerce, or BigCommerce too?
Yes. Same methodology, same pricing, same report format. The underlying WCAG standards don't care which platform you're on; the audit process doesn't either. We've audited Shopify, Squarespace, WordPress, Wix, Webflow, and custom Next.js stores. The report looks the same at the end.
How is this different from the free Shopify accessibility apps in the app store?
Most of those apps run axe-core under the hood — the same engine we run — and then dump the raw findings into a dashboard tab you rarely open. They're fine as a scanner. The thing they don't give you is interpretation: which of the 60 issues actually matters, which are duplicates of a single template problem, and which you can safely ignore until Q3. That's what you're paying us for.
Start an audit
Start with the Quick Check at $49. If the report says you're mostly fine with two things to fix, you're done. If it says the structural issues need the full sweep, we credit the $49 toward the Small Site Audit if you upgrade within 14 days. No sales call unless you want one.
We use this form to reply to you. No newsletter subscription unless you opt in separately.
