A11yFlow review
A developer-focused accessibility scanner with CI gates, crawling, and structured results.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
A11yFlow is an automated web accessibility scanning API for developers and organisations. It scans publicly accessible web pages in a real Chromium browser using axe-core, then returns structured JSON with accessibility scores, severity-ranked violations, WCAG mappings, contrast data, and remediation guidance. The service is available through the web and API, with CLI scanning and a focus on incorporating accessibility checks into development workflows.
Pricing follows a freemium model. The Free plan costs £0 per month and includes single-page scans and community support. Starter costs £19 per month with single-page scans and email support. Pro costs £49 per month and adds multi-page crawling, scheduled scans, webhook notifications, and priority support. Team costs £149 per month with those same scanning and notification features plus dedicated support. Enterprise includes unlimited scans and a dedicated SLA, with pricing handled through sales. This structure makes A11yFlow most accessible for teams that can begin with page-level checks and expand as their scanning workflow grows.
Its strongest fit is engineering-led accessibility automation. CI/CD deployment gates, structured JSON results, remediation guidance, REST API access, and CLI usage support repeatable checks during development and deployment. The MCP server connects with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and other MCP-compatible clients, extending the workflow into AI coding assistants. Multi-page crawling and scheduled scans are available on paid tiers, while the free plan remains narrow. Teams seeking automated WCAG 2.2 checks and developer integrations should consider A11yFlow; organisations needing manual review or a browser extension should choose a broader tool.
