Just launched: WCAGScans – AI helper for quick accessibility checks

Hey Indie Hackers,

I’ve been hacking on a small tool to solve a pain point I kept running into: making websites accessible without spending hours running manual audits.

The result is WCAGScans
. It’s an AI-powered accessibility helper that:

Runs a scan in ~60 seconds

Flags common WCAG issues (alt text, form labels, contrast, headings)

Gives you a simple score + shareable report

Free plan: 5 scans/week

👉 Important caveat: It’s not a replacement for manual accessibility testing. Think of it more like a “first pass” to catch the obvious stuff, so you can focus on the tricky parts.

It’s brand new (literally just launched), so I’d really love some feedback:

Would you trust an AI helper like this as part of your workflow?

What features would you want before upgrading (bulk scans, reports, API)?

Any devs/agencies here who’d like me to run a free sample audit on their site?

If anyone tries it and finds a bug or has an idea, I’d be super grateful 🙏

Thanks for reading — still very early days, but hoping this could be useful for indie founders, devs, and agencies trying to keep accessibility in mind without slowing down.
