What Barrieretest.at is
Barrieretest.at is a free web and API service that automatically checks publicly accessible website pages for technically detectable accessibility barriers. It tests rendered HTML against WCAG 2.2 using axe-core, then returns an accessibility score, prioritized findings, and implementation guidance. Checks can identify missing alternative text, contrast errors, missing form labels, and ARIA errors. Users can enter a URL without creating an account. API access and CI/CD integration support developer workflows, and the service is independent of the CMS, including WordPress and TYPO3 sites. Optional AI analysis sends the tested page screenshot and context to Nebius AI. Screenshots are encrypted in memory, deleted within 60 minutes, and identifiable raw audit data is generally retained for up to 30 days before anonymization. Usage is limited to 10 tests per IP, five per domain daily, and three AI analyses per IP daily.
