Kept Record

accessiBe sells a widget that is installed on your site and changes it for visitors; Kept Record installs nothing and records what a scan measures.

These are different kinds of product. accessWidget is code you add to your site that scans and remediates pages and gives visitors display adjustments, and its plans are priced by traffic and include litigation support from the Growth plan up. Kept Record measures pages weekly from outside, keeps the history, and makes no compliance claim.

What Kept Record records

  • Each defect is recorded with the element, the measurement and the failing markup.
  • Later scans are compared with earlier ones. A defect that stops being detected is marked "no longer detected", never resolved.
  • A defect whose page failed to load, or whose reading was taken mid-animation, is held open rather than dropped.

What Kept Record does not claim
