Question 1

Can I trust vendor VPATs?

Accepted Answer

No. Vendor ACR/VPATs are self-reported and fundamentally unreliable. They often contain vague language, inaccurate claims, or omit critical barriers. Independent validation with real assistive technology testing is the only way to know what actually works and what blocks users.

Question 2

What's the difference between your testing and what big firms do?

Accepted Answer

Big firms charge $20k-$50k+ for comprehensive audits that take months and deliver 200-page reports. We do focused testing on critical workflows, deliver 2-page actionable findings in 2-4 weeks, and charge $2k-$10k. Our outputs answer specific questions: What's the risk? What should we do?

Question 3

What's an EEAAP and do I need one?

Accepted Answer

An EEAAP (Equal Effective Alternative Access Plan) is required under Section 508 when your ICT has blockers—barriers that prevent access entirely. It documents how you'll provide alternative access while vendors fix the problems. We helped develop the original EEAAP framework and can support your development.

Question 4

How long does validation take?

Accepted Answer

Typical timeline: 2-4 weeks from kickoff to delivery, depending on system complexity and criticality. High-impact systems require more thorough testing.

Question 5

Will your services protect us from lawsuits or OCR complaints?

Accepted Answer

No. We're not insurance against legal liability. Our role is to provide independent validation and documentation that supports your compliance efforts. You still own the responsibility for Title II compliance—we help you make informed decisions, document barriers, and hold vendors accountable. There's no solved button for accessibility. What we provide is validated intelligence that reduces risk and supports good-faith compliance efforts.

Don't trust vendor accessibility claims. Validate them.

Your systems have barriers. Do you know what they are?
