What does a basic accessibility checker do?
A basic accessibility checker runs fast automated checks for the html lang attribute, image alt text, form-field labels, the viewport meta tag and heading order. Pinglyra reports these as advisory findings to help you catch the most common, machine-detectable issues quickly. It is a useful first pass, not a substitute for a full WCAG audit or manual testing.
Basic accessibility gaps shut out real users and create legal risk. This free checker runs fast, automated basics so you can spot the obvious issues.
Why basic accessibility matters
Accessible sites reach more users and reduce legal exposure. Many of the most common issues - missing alt text or unlabeled form fields - are easy to detect and fix.
- Accessible sites reach more visitors
- Common issues are quick to fix
- A first pass before a full WCAG audit
What this checker reports
- Missing html lang attribute and viewport meta
- Images without alt text
- Form fields without an associated label
- Heading-order problems
Part of a full website health scan
This tool runs Pinglyra's full free scan, so alongside this check you also see uptime, SSL, DNS, email security, security headers, SEO, performance, links and accessibility - combined into a single 0-100 Website Health Score that shows what to fix first.
Passive and read-only
Every check is passive: Pinglyra only reads what your site already exposes publicly. There is no intrusive scanning, no form submission and no impact on the live site.
