2. Compliance strategy & planning — typical timeline: days to 1 week: Roadmap tailored to the laws in your market, sequenced by user impact (checkout, booking, login first).
3. Technical implementation & remediation — typical timeline: 2–8 weeks typical: Hands-on fixes in your codebase: semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard navigation, contrast, and media alternatives — without throwing away your existing design.

Frequently asked questions

Who provides Peradeo's web accessibility services?

Peradeo Technologies Inc., based in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, provides web accessibility audits and WCAG 2.0, 2.1, and 2.2 AA remediation for clients in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, and India. Accessibility expertise is backed by industry-recognized certifications. Founder Vatsal Shah is an IAAP Certified Web Accessibility Specialist (WAS), with team members holding certifications including WAS, Certified Professional in Accessibility Core Competencies (CPACC), Certified Professional in Web Accessibility (CPWA), and Accessible Document Specialist (ADS). Peradeo is a 2026 Canada Small Business 100 honouree.

What is included in a Peradeo web accessibility audit?

A Peradeo audit evaluates your site against WCAG 2.0, 2.1, and 2.2 AA using automated tools (axe, WAVE, Lighthouse) plus manual testing with real assistive technologies — NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, TalkBack, and Windows Narrator. You receive a prioritized findings report mapped to success criteria, not just a scanner dump. Automated tools typically catch only about a third of WCAG issues — they often pass missing keyboard focus outlines (WCAG 2.4.7) and duplicate alt/title text that screen readers announce twice (WCAG 1.1.1 and 2.4.4).

Can an automated accessibility scan prove WCAG conformance?

No. Tools such as axe, WAVE, and Lighthouse typically catch about 25–40% of WCAG failures. They flag missing alt attributes, but they often pass duplicate alt and title text (which screen readers announce twice) and missing keyboard focus outlines (WCAG 2.4.7 Focus Visible). Overlays do not close that gap. Conformance requires manual keyboard and screen-reader testing on real journeys, which is part of every Peradeo audit.

Do you only report issues, or do you also fix them?

We remediate. The same developers who audit your site implement semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard support, contrast, and alternative-text fixes in your production codebase. That is why organizations hire Peradeo instead of a report-only consultancy — especially for WordPress/WooCommerce stores and custom Vue/React apps.

Which accessibility laws does a WCAG 2.2 AA audit help with?

WCAG is the technical standard most laws point to. Our audits and remediation support ADA and Section 508 in the USA, AODA and the Accessible Canada Act in Canada (including Manitoba’s AMA and B.C.’s Accessible BC Act), the European Accessibility Act and EN 301 549, Australia’s DDA, and India’s RPwD Act plus the SEBI accessibility mandate. Many laws still reference WCAG 2.0 or 2.1; we cover all three versions.

Can you produce a VPAT or Accessibility Conformance Report?

Yes. We prepare VPAT / ACR documentation for U.S. and other procurement reviews, plus accessibility statements your legal and communications teams can publish. This is a common requirement for government, education, and enterprise vendors.

How long does a WCAG audit and remediation take?

A typical marketing site audit takes 1–3 weeks depending on page count and complexity. Remediation often follows in 2–8 weeks, prioritized by user impact (checkout, booking, login, and other key journeys first). Large enterprise portals and e-commerce catalogs are scoped after the audit. Ongoing monitoring retainers are available so new content does not regress conformance.

Does Peradeo help with SEBI accessibility compliance in India?

Yes. We map WCAG 2.2 AA findings to India’s RPwD Act, GIGW / IS 17802 guidance, and the SEBI accessibility mandate (including the October 2026 deadline for regulated entities). Indian and multinational clients use the same audit-and-remediate engagement model as our North American and European work.
