详情介绍:
reala11y is a WordPress accessibility checker and scanner that helps your site move toward WCAG 2.2 AA conformance by scanning for common issues and applying safe, code-level fixes — skip links, focus outlines, language attributes, form labels, target-size, link purpose, and more. Unlike accessibility overlay widgets, reala11y modifies the underlying HTML so screen readers and keyboard users encounter the corrected page.
What reala11y does
- Scans posts and pages against a WCAG 2.2 rule library.
- Applies safe, automated fixes at render time (per-rule on/off, one-click rollback).
- Generates a customizable accessibility statement.
- Suggests image alt text with your own AI key (OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini) — you review every suggestion before it is applied.
- It does not guarantee WCAG, ADA, EAA, or Section 508 compliance. Automated tools detect approximately 30–40% of WCAG failures by criteria. Full conformance requires human review.
- It is not an overlay widget. The Federal Trade Commission's April 21, 2025 order against accessiBe affirmed that overlay claims of automatic WCAG conformance are not supportable.
- WordPress.org — used for plugin update checks, as for any plugin hosted here. No personal data is sent beyond the standard update request.
- AI providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini (optional, bring-your-own-key). The AI authoring features (for example, alt-text suggestions) stay off until you enter your own API key for a provider and run a feature. When you run a feature, reala11y uses your key to send that provider the input you selected — for example, the URL of an image or a block of your post's text — together with a short instruction prompt. The response is shown to you for review and is never applied automatically. reala11y does not proxy or resell AI usage; the provider bills you directly. Remove a provider's key to disable it.

- WCAG 2.2 (including 2.5.8 Target Size and the focus criteria).
- Bring-your-own AI key — no surprise quotas, no resold tokens.
- Honest claims. We never tell you you're "fully compliant."

常见问题:
Does this make my site WCAG compliant?
No tool can. reala11y identifies common WCAG issues and remediates a defined subset at the code level. Full conformance requires manual review and user testing.
Do I need an API key for AI features?
Yes — bring your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini key. The AI authoring features then work in this free version at no extra charge from us; your provider bills you directly for what you use. reala11y never resells or proxies AI usage.
How does this compare to accessibility overlay widgets?
Overlay widgets (e.g., accessiBe, UserWay) inject a floating JavaScript layer that does not modify the underlying HTML. Screen readers continue to see the original, unfixed page. The FTC fined accessiBe $1,000,000 on April 21, 2025 for claiming automated WCAG compliance. reala11y instead applies fixes to the actual HTML that browsers, screen readers, and crawlers see.
What WCAG version do you cover?
WCAG 2.2 AA. WCAG 2.2 became a W3C Recommendation on October 5, 2023.
Is reala11y an alternative to accessiBe or UserWay?
If you are looking for an accessiBe or UserWay alternative that fixes the underlying HTML instead of layering a JavaScript widget on top, reala11y is built for that. Overlay widgets leave the original page unchanged for screen readers; reala11y edits the actual code. As context, the FTC fined accessiBe $1,000,000 on April 21, 2025 over automated WCAG compliance claims.
Can it generate alt text for my images?
Yes. The scanner flags images missing alt text (WCAG 1.1.1), and the bring-your-own-key AI tools can draft an alt-text suggestion using your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini key. Every suggestion is shown for your review and is never applied automatically.
更新日志:
1.2.0
- Scan your whole site in one click. A new "Scan whole site" button queues a scan for every published post and page, and you can schedule recurring scans (daily or weekly) so new content keeps getting checked automatically.
- Fix your whole site in one click. A new "Fix whole site" button applies every safe, code-level fix across all your published content at once. Each change is logged and reversible with one-click undo, and Safe Mode pauses every fix instantly.
- Bulk alt-text from the Media Library. See every image missing alt text in one place, then review and apply descriptions — optionally drafted with your own AI key — without hunting through individual posts.
- Six new checks, 22 in total: iframe titles, data-table headers, video captions, empty headings, list structure, and adjacent links to the same destination.
- Applied fixes now clear themselves from your list: when a fix resolves an issue, that issue leaves the active list automatically. Plus broader inline-fix coverage and an accessibility pass over the admin screens.
- Fix issues inline, right where you see them. On a flagged issue (in the Issues list or the on-page checker) you can now type and apply the fix in one step: image alt text, descriptive text for vague links, accessible names for icon-only buttons and links, and form-field labels.
- Colour-contrast fixer: pick or auto-suggest an accessible text/background pair and apply it, with a live contrast ratio and WCAG AA pass/fail.
- Heading-level fixer: re-level a heading that skips a step, with an optional bring-your-own-key AI outline suggestion.
- New render-time theme-output fixes (off by default): a site-wide skip link, a visible keyboard-focus outline, a minimum target size, a main landmark, and restore-zoom. These inject real code (not an overlay) and are gated by Safe Mode; with the feature off, visitors get a byte-identical page.
- Every fix is reversible with one-click undo and is logged.
- Listing refresh: real admin screenshots, clearer and more discoverable readme copy, and visible project links. No functional code changes.
- First public release.
- Scanner: 16 WCAG 2.2 rules across posts, pages, and rendered theme output.
- Auto-fix engine: safe, reversible, code-level fixes with per-fix toggles, one-click undo, and a Safe Mode kill-switch.
- Inspect on page: an author-only annotated overlay on the live site (logged-in editors only; visitors never see it).
- Dismiss issues with a structured reason and reopen them later.
- Colour Contrast Tester in the new Tools screen.
- BYOK AI authoring suite: bring your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini key — you pay your provider directly, never us.
- Accessibility statement generator, VPAT starter, and compliance report.
- Encrypted API-key storage and a clean uninstall.
