How AccessibilityRef compares
| Option | Annual cost | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Manual audit by a consultant | €1,500 – €7,000 (one-off) | One report, one site, one moment in time. Re-audits cost the same again. |
| Enterprise platforms (Siteimprove, Silktide, Monsido) | €10,000 – €50,000 | Sales calls, 12-month contracts, complex onboarding, designed for enterprise teams. |
| AI overlay widgets (UserWay, accessiBe) | €450 – €490 | A script that hides problems instead of fixing them. Widely criticised by disability advocates. |
| AccessibilityRef | €499 / year | 63 tools, Annex IV Technical File generator, Accessibility Statement (7 EU languages), 5-year audit retention, no sales call, instant access. |
Comparison based on publicly listed pricing as of April 2026. Enterprise platform prices are entry-level estimates and typically scale with site size and seat count.

Pricing questions
Do I need a lawyer to use this?
No. AccessibilityRef generates the technical evidence the EAA requires (the Annex IV Technical File, the Accessibility Statement, the Declaration of Conformity templates). Your lawyer — or you, if you're authorised — signs the final Declaration of Conformity based on that evidence. We provide legal-grade evidence, not legal advice.
What is the difference between this and a €30,000 enterprise platform?
Enterprise platforms target Fortune-500 companies with hundreds of pages, dedicated compliance teams, sales-led procurement processes, and 12-month contracts. AccessibilityRef is built for small and medium European businesses, freelancers, and small agencies who need to be EAA compliant by the deadline without hiring consultants or sitting through demos.
Is one-time really €499 forever, or is there a catch?
€499 buys you one year of full Pro access. Renew when you want, cancel any time, no contract, no auto-renewal lock-in. There is no hidden cost. We do not upsell, do not require sales calls, and do not use dark patterns to make cancellation difficult.
Do I need an account to use the free tools?
No. All 16 free tools work without any account or login. Just visit the tool page and use it immediately.
What is included in the Pro plan?
Pro gives you full access to all 63 professional tools including the Annex IV Technical File generator, statement wizard, compliance report builder, evidence vault, ARIA assistant, and more. The annual subscription at €499/year covers a single user seat. No hidden fees.
What is the Annex IV Technical File?
Annex IV of the European Accessibility Act lists the technical documentation every covered business must keep on file for 5 years to prove conformity. It includes a product description, list of harmonised standards applied, the conformity assessment results, and a justification for any disproportionate burden exemptions. AccessibilityRef generates all of this automatically from your audit results.
Can I share Pro access with my team?
The Pro plan is a single user seat. For multi-user access with role-based permissions and white-label client reports, the Team plan at €1,499/year includes 3 seats and a team management portal.
How do payments work?
All payments are processed securely via Stripe. We accept all major credit cards and most EU payment methods. You buy directly — no sales call, no contract, no procurement process.
