Built by an independent engineer

I’ve shipped frontends at biotech, fintech, and insurance companies for the better part of a decade. The same conversation kept happening: a procurement reviewer or compliance officer would ask whether the site was WCAG-compliant, and the engineering team would freeze. Either the answer was “we ran Lighthouse once” (not enough), or “we have a $25K consultant audit scheduled for Q3” (too late, too expensive). There was no middle option that produced something a buyer or auditor would accept in the next 24 hours.

So I built it for myself. The same axe-core engine the consultants use under the hood, but automated, signed, and shipped as a $49 PDF that a procurement team will treat as real evidence. It’s what I wish had existed every time I cobbled it together by hand for a client.

The product will stay deliberately small. No upsell wall, no “schedule a demo,” no enterprise sales cycle. The buyer pays $49 (or $149 for a whole site, $19/month if you want it programmatically), and the money funds the engineer who builds the scanner. That’s the whole roadmap.
