Accessibility Audits as an Agency Service
Every client site your agency has ever shipped is a potential ADA demand letter — addressed to your client, followed immediately by a hard conversation with you. Agencies are turning that liability into a product: accessibility audits, remediation, and ongoing monitoring, sold as a recurring service line.
The economics are compelling. You already have the client relationships and the development capacity; what you need is tooling that finds the issues, prioritizes them, and produces client-ready deliverables without burning senior developer hours on manual auditing.
ADA Scanner's Business plan is built for this: unlimited scans across unlimited client sites, white-label PDF reports with your branding, AI-generated fixes your developers apply in minutes, and monitoring that gives you a reason to bill monthly.

Scan Your Website FreeWhy agencies are adding compliance services
- Client demand is rising on its own — demand letters and news coverage send clients to their agency first.
- Recurring revenue: audits convert naturally into monthly monitoring retainers, unlike one-off site builds.
- Differentiation: 'we build accessible sites, and we can prove it' wins pitches against template shops.
- Risk management: auditing your own portfolio before plaintiff firms do protects existing relationships.
What the service looks like in practice
- Baseline audit of each client site with a severity-ranked findings report under your brand.
- Remediation sprint using generated fixes — most sites' critical issues resolve in days, not weeks.
- Verification re-scan and a compliance badge/certificate the client can display.
- Monthly or quarterly monitoring retainer with automated alerts when new issues appear.
How ADA Scanner helps
- White-label reports — your logo, your brand, client-ready without design work.
- Unlimited scans and unlimited pages across every client site on one plan.
- AI-generated corrected code for every finding — junior developers can execute remediation.
- Scheduled monitoring across the whole portfolio with email alerts, powering the retainer.
- A developer API for wiring scans into your own workflows and client dashboards.
Frequently asked questions
How do agencies typically price accessibility services?
Common patterns: one-time audits at $500–$2,000 per site depending on size, remediation billed hourly or fixed per severity bucket, and monitoring retainers at $50–$200/month per site. Against a $79/month all-inclusive tool cost, margins are strong from the first client.
Can we resell scans under our own brand?
Yes — the Business plan includes white-label reports with your branding, and certificates can carry custom branding. Your clients see your agency's deliverable, powered by our engine.
Our sites are built accessibly already. What's the pitch to clients?
Compliance decays: content editors upload images without alt text, plugins update, widgets change. Monitoring is the product — the site that passed at launch needs evidence it still passes today. That's a recurring line item clients understand after one demand-letter headline.
