PACT

PACT is a free, AI-powered website compliance audit tool that enables website owners, developers, and digital marketers to identify accessibility, privacy, and legal standard violations on their web properties. The tool focuses on three core compliance frameworks: ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) accessibility, GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) privacy requirements, and WCAG 2.1 AA (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards. Users can enter any public website URL and receive a detailed, automated analysis without needing to register or provide personal information. The audit covers a wide range of technical and content-related checks, including but not limited to: color contrast ratios for text and background elements, presence and accuracy of alternative text for images, keyboard navigation functionality, form label associations, heading hierarchy, use of ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes, and semantic HTML structure. For GDPR compliance, the tool examines cookie consent mechanisms, data processing disclosures, privacy policy availability, and user data handling practices. On the WCAG 2.1 AA front, it evaluates criteria such as non-text content, captions for multimedia, adaptable content structure, distinguishable elements, and input assistance. The analysis is powered by advanced machine learning models that simulate user interactions and crawl page elements, generating a comprehensive report that categorizes issues by severity (critical, moderate, minor) and provides actionable remediation guidance. Each issue includes a specific description, the impacted HTML element or code snippet, and suggestions for fixing the violation. The tool has already audited over 2,500 websites, and all data is encrypted in transit and at rest, wi
