With remediation plan
BFSG is law.
Enforcement letters are already landing.
Abmahnungen are being sent
Competitors are filing cease-and-desist letters against non-compliant sites under UWG. Each costs ~€1,784 in legal fees — plus binding penalties for future violations.

per Abmahnung (avg. legal cost, 2026)
MLBF inspections underway
MLBF has been conducting compliance checks since January 2026. First penalty decisions expected by Q3. Fines apply per violation, not per website.
€100,000
max fine per violation (§37 BFSG)
7.9M users you are losing
7.9M people in Germany have a recognized disability. Add situational impairments and 1 in 4 users hits barriers. Inaccessible sites lose revenue and rank lower.

How we audit
Proprietary AI analysis combined with manual expert review. Every criterion tested. Every issue documented.
Comprehensive Scan
Every page is analyzed across multiple accessibility engines and AI-powered visual inspection. Forms, navigation, dynamic content, color contrast, ARIA patterns — tested automatically against the full WCAG 2.1 AA criteria set.
Expert Manual Review
Full keyboard-only navigation testing. Screen reader testing with NVDA and VoiceOver across all critical user flows. Dynamic component review — modals, accordions, carousels, dropdown menus. The issues no tool can catch.
Report & Remediation Plan
Every finding mapped to WCAG criterion and EN 301 549 clause. Severity rated, prioritized by impact. Each issue includes clear fix guidance, affected user groups, and effort estimates. Comprehensive tier adds ready-to-use code snippets.

Who we work with
BFSG applies to every B2C digital product. These industries face the highest enforcement risk.
E-Commerce
Product pages, checkout flows, payment forms — the highest-risk areas for BFSG enforcement and competitor Abmahnungen.
SaaS & Software
Complex web applications with dynamic UI, modals, dashboards, and interactive components that require deep ARIA validation.
Finance & Insurance
Banking portals, insurance applications, and financial services with strict regulatory documentation requirements.
Agencies & Freelancers
White-label audits for your clients. You sell the service, we deliver the results under your brand.
Transparent, fixed pricing

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the audit process, pricing, and compliance.
What exactly do you test?
WCAG 2.1 Level AA — all 50+ applicable success criteria, mapped to EN 301 549 for EAA/BFSG compliance. We test with automated scanning (axe-core, Lighthouse), manual keyboard navigation, and screen reader testing with both NVDA and VoiceOver.
How many pages do you test?
We test unique page templates, not total pages. A 500-page e-commerce site typically has 20–30 unique templates (homepage, product listing, product detail, checkout steps, blog post, etc.). We audit all unique layouts plus a sample of content variations.
What if we fail?
This is a gap analysis, not a pass/fail exam. We identify every issue, classify by severity (Critical, Major, Minor, Advisory), and provide a prioritized remediation roadmap with fix code. Most sites have issues — the goal is to document and fix them systematically.
Can we show the report to regulators?
Yes — designed for exactly that. Full and Comprehensive tiers include EN 301 549 conformity mapping, an accessibility statement draft, and documentation formatted for regulatory review. The report demonstrates due diligence under BFSG.
How long until we are compliant?
The audit takes 5–10 business days. Fixing the issues depends on your dev capacity. Our remediation roadmap includes effort estimates per fix — most critical issues take 2–4 hours of dev time. A typical site reaches full conformity in 4–8 weeks.
Why are audit slots limited?
Each audit involves deep manual testing — keyboard navigation, screen reader flows, ARIA validation — not just automated scans. To maintain quality, we limit how many audits we take on each month. Most months fill up weeks in advance. Book early to secure your slot.
What tools do you use for scanning?
We run proprietary AI-powered analysis alongside axe-core, Lighthouse, Pa11y, and Playwright for automated coverage. Manual testing uses NVDA and VoiceOver screen readers, plus keyboard-only navigation testing. No single tool catches everything — our multi-engine approach finds issues others miss.
