AccessiBe Widget Review

AccessiBe claims it is "The #1 Web Accessibility Solutions for WCAG & ADA Compliance" but is this in reference to its widget? Because we know that the widget doesn't make a website accessible and lawsuits have been filed against countless websites with AccessiBe's widget installed.
For more on lawsuits against websites using AccessiBe, visit:

What's interesting is AccessiBe now offers an "expert audit" service which must be difficult to reconcile with its widget. The messaging has constantly been that the overlay widget is a solution for "WCAG compliance" and preventing lawsuits.
If this is the case, then why would website owners need an audit?
You can review AccessiBe's audit services, which are described as a "Manual audit of your site's source code to discover accessibility gaps." at accessibe.com/...

The widget is bogus, but they offer AI scanning code remediation. Is that worth it?

I looked quickly and didn't see anything that matches that exact name. One thing to keep in mind is AccessiBe has claimed AI for a long, long time - as far back as I can remember (years before Chat-GPT came out). Another is that when we do have any sort of autonomous remediation breakthrough, it will be all over the place. Thanks for commenting and let me know if I can answer any other questions.

My company is looking for an ADA compliance provider. We build sites using Wordpress and the Divi builder because of the speed that we can create content. I am looking for a solution that can help fix any errors in code either by remediation or by recommending what I can do. Are there providers that you recommend?@@adabook

@@user-tb8py7ur3g There's no product I can recommend but we offer audit and remediation services that can help your clients. Accessible.org (accessible.org) has white label and co-brand partnership options that you can seamlessly add-on to your existing offerings. I apologize for not replying earlier - I did not see your comment until last night.
