The Full Lifecycle:
62+ Tools in Action

EAA compliance isn't a single checkbox. It runs from strategy through to deployment, and the documentation lives for five years afterwards. See how the 62+ tools fit together across that lifecycle.

The Compliance Workflow

1. Strategy & Risk

Establishing the business case, identifying legal exposure across EU states, and setting the compliance budget.

The Challenge

Expanding to the EU-wide market while ensuring compliance with the German BFSG (Accessibility Reinforcement Act).

Tool Integration Story

EcoVibe started with the Fine Calculator to size their EAA exposure, then used the Heading Analyser to fix 142 structural issues and the Touch Target Tester to resize 24 navigation icons that were failing the 24px AA minimum. The Ecommerce Checklist paired with the ROI Calculator turned a legal requirement into a quantified growth case.

AccessibilityRef gave our developers exact pixel values and HTML fixes. We shipped a compliant checkout in weeks, not months.

The Challenge

Simplifying complex insurance disclosure documents to meet WCAG 2.2 SC 3.1.5 (Reading Level) for EAA 'Understandable' requirements.

Tool Integration Story

GlobalFin used the Banking Checklist to test their portal against the financial sector EAA clauses. The ARIA Assistant fixed 14 custom data-grid widgets that were invisible to screen readers, and the PDF Checklist verified all policy downloads were correctly tagged.

The Banking Checklist mapped sector-specific obligations to concrete remediation tickets. Our developers stopped guessing at compliance scope.

The Challenge

Managing multi-jurisdictional risk across 12 EU member states with varying penalty structures.

Tool Integration Story

TravelEase covered three surfaces: the web booking engine, the mobile app, and physical airport kiosks. The Transport Checklist handled sector-specific rules; the Terminal Checklist audited the check-in kiosks; the Mobile App Checklist took the boarding-pass flow to a 92/100 score with confirmed 44px touch targets.

Three different surfaces, one audit trail. The Multi-jurisdiction Fine Calculator made the budget case to the board on its own.

Stop guessing.
Start complying.

ROI modelling, ARIA debugging, technical-file generation, statement publishing. The toolkit covers every requirement of the European Accessibility Act.
