European Accessibility Act (EAA) & AI Readiness
With the EAA in force, accessibility is no longer an afterthought.
-
Ethics
It is an ethical and moral duty to users who rely on assistive navigation tools every day.
-
Business
It is a major business driver, because thousands of websites and mobile apps must now comply and need a capable technology partner.
-
AI-compliant
It is a strategic advantage, because an accessible site is natively “AI-compliant.” Agentic navigation loves an accessible website.
Anyone in the industry knows just how much work goes into the “accessible transition.” We are here to simplify the process: ZeroAX is the SaaS platform that automates, simplifies, and accelerates accessibility audits and remediation plans at scale.
EN 301 549 AND EAA COMPLIANCE ENGINE
Others stop at syntax checks. We cover the meaning.
Standard scanners stop at code syntax and leave auditors a long manual “Needs Review” backlog. ZeroAX pairs deterministic scanning with a System 1 / System 2 semantic AI loop to speed up triage, manage remediation on a Kanban board and produce white-label EN 301 549 reports for every client.

- No script to install on your site
- Mobile and desktop
- Multi-tenant and white-label

Built around
- WCAG 2.2 and 2.1
- EN 301 549 V4.1.1 and V3.2.1
- European Accessibility Act
- AgID guidelines
Every audit is measured on the chapter 9 clauses of EN 301 549 that cite a WCAG success criterion, once on desktop and once on mobile: V4.1.1 with WCAG 2.2, or V3.2.1 with WCAG 2.1.
Scanners check the code. People read the meaning.
Rule engines such as axe-core and Lighthouse are the right baseline, and ZeroAX runs both, on mobile and desktop. But a rule can only tell that an attribute exists, not whether it makes sense. Everything else lands in a manual “Needs Review” queue.
A syntax scanner on its own
- Passes
alt="DSC_0921.jpg", because the attribute is not empty. - Passes a “Read more” link, because it has text.
- Passes
lang="it"on a page the visitor switched to English.
ZeroAX on top of it
- Asks whether the text describes the image in its context.
- Asks whether the link says where it goes.
- Asks whether the page language matches the language the visitor chose.
An auditor, yours or ours, then confirms what the AI flags. ZeroAX shortens the review; it does not skip it.
SYSTEM 1 / SYSTEM 2
Semantic AI that answers the questions linters can't
A fast first pass (System 1) reads every element of the page's accessibility tree and settles what it can. What it cannot settle can go, at the auditor's request, to a slower and deeper second pass (System 2). What is still open reaches a person with the evidence attached.

WCAG 1.1.1 · EN 9.1.1.1
Does the text actually describe this image?
A linter passes
alt="DSC_0921.jpg"because the attribute is filled in. The System 1 / System 2 loop checks whether the description makes sense where the image is used.<img src="team.jpg" alt="DSC_0921.jpg"> -
WCAG 2.4.4 · 2.5.3 · 4.1.2
Does this button or link say what it does?
Flags vague links such as “Read more”, custom controls whose ARIA state does not change, and Label in Name mismatches that stop voice control users.

Does the screen reader language match the language on screen?
Checks that
<html lang>and the page text match the language the visitor selected, so a screen reader does not read English with Italian pronunciation.<html lang="it"> … Welcome back
From first scan to final report, in one place
- 01
Scan, on mobile and desktop.
A cloud crawler checks every page as a desktop browser and as a phone. The Chrome extension reaches what a crawler can't: logged-in areas, citizen portals and staging sites. Nothing is injected into your site.
- 02
Semantic triage on the EN 301 549 checklist.
System 1 / System 2 sorts the findings, and each one is attached as evidence to its EN 301 549 clause, ready for the auditor to confirm.
- 03
Issues, Kanban and webhooks.
A failed clause opens an issue with step-by-step reproduction and screenshots, tracked on a built-in Kanban board. Webhooks notify any external system, such as Jira, GitHub, GitLab or an ERP.
- 04
Reports and no-regression monitoring.
White-label reports ready for your client, in more than one language, and scheduled scans that flag new barriers after each release.

Frequently asked questions
What does ZeroAX check?
Pages are checked against WCAG 2.2 and EN 301 549 v4.1.1 criteria on mobile and desktop: an axe-core and Lighthouse baseline, plus AI-driven semantic analysis.
What do System 1 and System 2 mean?
System 1 is a fast first pass over every element of the page. System 2 is a slower, deeper pass on the cases the first one could not settle, run when the auditor asks for it. Both explain their answer and cite the element they looked at.
Does automation replace manual testing?
No. Automated analysis speeds up the work and covers a large share of the criteria, but some require human judgement, and an auditor, yours or ours, confirms every result.
Can I audit pages behind a login?
Yes. The Chrome extension audits the page you have open, including logged-in areas and staging sites, without adding any script to the site.
Can I resell it under my own brand?
Yes. The platform is white label, multi-tenant and reseller-ready.
Can I manage several clients and domains?
Yes. Each client has its own workspace, and a workspace can cover multiple domains.
How does monitoring work?
The platform keeps checking your pages and flags regressions and new accessibility issues as they appear.
Do you help with the AgID accessibility statement?
Yes. We provide guidance, ready-to-use content and a reminder before the yearly deadline. You submit the statement through the form on the AgID website.
How much does it cost?
Pricing depends on how you plan to use ZeroAX. We'll go through it in the demo.
