Audit-grade accessibility · WCAG 2.2 · EN 301 549

Accessibility fixes,
shipped as pull requests.

Accessibility fixes shipped as pull requests, with audit-grade proof. Sigil scans your theme, template, and CSS source, opens a real pull request against your own repository, and pairs every finding with the criterion-mapped rationale regulators expect.

  • Code-level fixes
  • axe-core diagnostics
  • Versioned VPAT 2.x

What Sigil isn't

Not a runtime overlay. Not a widget. No client-side patch.

The defenceless 2025 ADA Title III records — and the new EAA window — don't reward a script that hides barriers. They reward remediation at the source. Sigil fixes the underlying markup, in your repo, like any other code change.

accessiBe et al.

widget

Overlay widgets

Inject a runtime script that rewrites the DOM and overlays an accessibility UI on top of — and over — the original barrier.

no source-level fix

audit-grade code change

code change

Sigil

Identifies WCAG / EN failures in your theme, template, and CSS source. Files a real PR with the diff, evidence, and a criterion-mapped rationale.

merged in your repo

The three pillars

What ships with every PR Sigil opens.

01 ·

Real pull requests

A branch, a diff, a code review. Your team merges the fix on the same cadence they merge everything else — no exceptions, no overlay, no widget.

developer-grade

02 ·

VPAT 2.x ACR

A versioned Accessibility Conformance Report, signed and reissued on every deploy. The same artifact procurement and counsel hand to regulators on demand.

Evidence trail

axe-core diagnostics, criterion mapping, DOM and AT trace — hashed and stored. When a regulator asks "why is this WCAG pass valid?", the trail is the answer.

tamper-evident

A diagnostic, not a score

Every finding ships an axe-core diagnostic, a criterion-mapped rationale, and a trace.

When the diff lands, the developer sees the WCAG clause, the offending selector, the computed contrast, and a proposed fix — the same shape as any other inline review comment in your repo.

A code-review cadence

The same four-step shape your team already runs.

No new tool to learn, no new dashboard to host — just PRs your developers review like any other engineering work, with the audit trail attached.

  1. 01 · SCAN

    Theme, template, CSS source — diffed against WCAG 2.2 & EN 301 549.

  2. 02 · DIFF

    One failing criterion at a time, with a proposed change.

  3. 03 · STAGE

    AT trace, axe diagnostics, and a 1.4.11-mapping rationale attached.

  4. 04 · PR

    A branch, a code review, the same cadence your team already uses.

Mapped to a real standard

Compliance, by clause — not by guesswork.

Every PR is recorded under the actual criterion it satisfies. Sigil doesn't ask whether the page is accessible; it cites which axe-core rule, which WCAG clause, which EN 301 549 clause was satisfied, on which commit, by whom.

  • WCAG 2.2

    mapped

    W3C recommendation · Level A/AA

    Every criterion cited per finding, mapped to a precise axe-core rule.

  • EN 301 549

    mapped

    EU harmonized standard

    Mappings carried through to the VPAT — so procurement and counsel can quote the same line.

  • EAA · ETA

    mapped

    European Accessibility Act · since Jun 2025

    Re-issued on every deploy; old versions remain retrievable for an audit window.

  • VPAT 2.x

    mapped

    Section 508 + ACR

    Versioned, re-signed, and downloadable on demand — the artifact regulators expect.
