Two schools of thought, and why the EAA shifts the choice

Digital accessibility broadly comes in two approaches: temporarily masking errors in the browser (an overlay) or structurally repairing the source code. Now that the European Accessibility Act is enforceable since mid-2025, IT directors and legal counsels increasingly choose the permanent route. The reason is technical: an overlay places a JavaScript layer over your site, but often doesn't truly remove the underlying barriers for assistive tools like screen readers, something the Overlay Fact Sheet, signed by over 800 accessibility experts, has pointed out for years.

Strategic aspectSevirantaAudioEye
Approach & impactPermanent repairs in your own source code. The error is genuinely fixed and stays fixed, even if you stop the software. Your investment stays in your own code, with no vendor lock-in.A temporary JavaScript layer that corrects the page in the browser. Stop the licence and the adjustment disappears, leaving the barrier back in place.
Legislation & EU hostingAligned with the European Accessibility Act and EN 301 549, the European standard. Customer data and scans run in the EU (Frankfurt).Originally built for US ADA legislation; AudioEye announced expansion toward the EU and the EAA in 2025.
Transparency & evidenceaxe-core, the global industry standard that also powers Google Lighthouse and Microsoft Accessibility Insights, reproducible by anyone. We split the result: ~57% reliably automated, ~43% human judgement. You get a retainable compliance record.A proprietary engine with a claim of up to ~97% automation, based on its own 'Trusted Certification', a private label, not an official standard.
Pricing modelTransparent, fixed monthly prices (€69, €699) based on pages and scan frequency. No surprises as your traffic grows.Price on request via a sales process; rates are typically based on visitor numbers in this market.

Why 100% automated compliance is a myth

No AI fully understands the context of a page. A machine sees whether an image has alt text; only a human judges whether that text actually conveys the meaning. That's why Seviranta splits the result: ~57% we fix automatically, ~43% we put to human judgement. This prevents false certainty and helps you demonstrably comply with the European Accessibility Act, with a dossier that backs it up.

Choose Seviranta if you…

  • want a lasting solution that stays in your code, not a layer that disappears the moment you stop.
  • comply with the European standard: the EAA and EN 301 549, with data in the EU (Frankfurt).
  • you want transparency: open-source axe-core, a transparent 57/43 split and a retainable dossier.
  • want a fixed, predictable price (€69, €699) without a sales process or surprises as you grow.
