Seviranta vs. Siteimprove
The European Accessibility Act has applied since June 2025. Both parties are European and both help you comply, but the approach differs fundamentally. Here you read exactly where, without the marketing fog.
Factual accountability (as of June 2026). Every statement about Siteimprove on this page traces back to public sources and their own documentation: the Siteimprove product pages, their help center on the NextGen engine and ACT checks, and buyer platforms such as G2 and Vendr for pricing indications. Where a figure is an estimate, we say so. Read our source list ↓
Delivering a fix is something other than reporting on the fix
Siteimprove is not an overlay widget, it is a technically solid governance platform that analyses accessibility at the code level, prioritises issues and, with remediation guidance, points out what needs to happen. That has value. The difference with Seviranta lies in what happens next: Siteimprove points you toward the fix and reports your progress; Seviranta delivers the code fix itself. With Siteimprove you then schedule your own development team or an agency to resolve the flagged issues; with us that is part of the service. Add that with Seviranta you simply see the pricing ladder on the site and can start without a sales call, and you know when each approach fits.
| Strategic aspect | Seviranta | Siteimprove |
|---|---|---|
| Approach & impact | Delivers the actual code fix as part of the service, plus continuous monitoring and a retainable compliance file. You move from problem to fixed code without a separate implementation track. | Detects, prioritises and reports issues at the code level with remediation guidance inside a broad governance platform; the source-code fix you carry out yourself or via an agency. |
| Procurement & price | Self-serve: pricing ladder open on the site (€69-699/mo, excl. VAT), sign up without a sales call, metering on unique URL. | Sales-led procurement without public pricing; quote on request. Buyer data indicate roughly $15k-63k+/yr, depending on page count and modules. |
| Measurement basis & integrity | Runs on axe-core, the global industry standard that also powers Google Lighthouse and Microsoft Accessibility Insights and that professional auditors rely on. Results are objective, reproducible and independently verifiable. Your developers work with the benchmark of the field, with no vendor lock-in. | A proprietary, closed NextGen engine. Aligned with the open W3C ACT rules, but the exact test logic and additional checks cannot be independently verified or reproduced outside their platform, a black box whose outcome can shift without you knowing why. |
| Scope & audience | Focused on accessibility, self-serve to procure by entrepreneur up to larger shop, scalable without a track. | Broad governance platform (accessibility + SEO + content quality + analytics), built for large and regulated organisations with sales-led procurement. |
The B2B math: do you pay once or twice?
With a reporting platform you pay twice: first the licence for the scan (buyer data indicates roughly $15k-63k+/year), then your own developers or an agency to actually fix every flagged issue. With Seviranta the code fix is part of the service, that second, often largest cost disappears. You go from finding to fixed code with no separate implementation project.
Why 100% automated compliance is a myth
No scanner catches everything. An estimated 57% of WCAG criteria can be tested reliably by automation; the remaining ~43% requires human judgement, think logical reading order, meaningful alt text and usable focus order. Anyone promising full automated compliance is selling false security. We say it as it is: the machine does what the machine can, human work fills in the rest, and together that helps you demonstrably comply with the European Accessibility Act.
Choose Seviranta if you…
- want the code fix to actually be delivered, not just flagged, with no separate implementation track afterward.
- want to start today: pricing open on the site, sign up without a sales call or consultancy track.
- seek an efficient, scalable approach at enterprise quality (open-source axe-core) without sluggish procurement.
- want to comply with the EAA focused on accessibility, rather than running a broad governance platform.
