Assistiv Labs review
A focused browser platform for testing with real screen readers and assistive technologies.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Assistiv Labs is a browser-based accessibility testing platform for web developers, QA engineers, designers, and accessibility specialists. It provides remote access to real assistive technologies, including NVDA, Narrator, JAWS, VoiceOver, and Android TalkBack, alongside display modes and screen magnifiers. Teams can test websites and apps from a modern web browser without maintaining dedicated hardware or virtual machines. Support for WCAG 2.2, automated scans, manual review tools, mobile testing, CI/CD integration, and remediation guidance broadens its role beyond basic screen-reader checks.
Pricing is structured around monthly paid plans. Freelancer costs $19 per month and includes 120 testing minutes, one user, one parallel test, internal and local website testing, and access to NVDA, Narrator, Windows High Contrast, Windows Reduce Motion, and Windows Screen Magnifier. Professional costs $99 per month and adds unlimited testing minutes, older and beta assistive-technology and browser versions, and all assistive-technology and browser combinations; JAWS, ZoomText/Fusion, VoiceOver, and Android TalkBack availability is subject to the plan or contact. A 14-day Professional trial is available. Company adds unlimited users, custom parallel tests, SSO/SAML, a self-hosted deployment option, and custom security assessments and terms.
Its strongest distinction is the depth of assistive-technology access. Local tunneling supports localhost, VPN, intranet, and private staging sites, while accessibility-first end-to-end tests combine keyboard, mouse, screen readers, and machine vision. Human audits include automated revalidation, and debugging tools include browser developer tools and Xcode Accessibility Inspector. Integrations include AssistivTunnel, SSO/SAML, Okta, and Auth0. Assistiv Labs suits teams that need direct screen-reader coverage and private-site testing; teams seeking a broader desktop platform or straightforward Company pricing may prefer an alternative.
