Stark review
Broad accessibility coverage across design, code, mobile, CI/CD, and compliance workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Stark brings accessibility work into design, development, QA, product, and compliance workflows. It combines WCAG audits, browser-based testing, manual testing and annotations, automated scans, remediation guidance, reporting, and governance tools. Coverage extends from Figma and code repositories to public and private URLs, CI/CD pipelines, and native iOS and Android testing. A free plan makes it a practical starting point for teams that want broad accessibility coverage without beginning with a paid commitment.
Pricing expands by plan and organizational scope. Premium Pack costs $198 per user per year, billed annually, with a minimum of three seats; it adds automated detection and remediation for Figma, browser WCAG scans and reports, and live code highlighting. Launch costs $2,500 per year and includes three editors, 25 viewers, weekly scans, and connections to Figma, code repositories, and public URLs. Grow costs $8,000 per year, adds 10 editors and 50 viewers, daily scans, CI/CD, mobile testing, ticketing integration, and Compliance Center. Scale costs $21,000 per year, includes 20 editors and unlimited viewers, real-time scans, monitoring for up to 4,000 pages, SSO, JIT provisioning, and dedicated account management.
The platform’s breadth is its main differentiator. Integrations include Sketch, GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, Storybook, Cypress, Puppeteer, Playwright, iOS, Android, and ticketing and project-management tools. Reports cover violations, potential issues, passed checks, and downloadable results, while annotations support alt text, focus order, landmarks, headings, and ARIA notes. Stark suits teams coordinating accessibility across multiple product stages; organizations seeking only a narrow browser checker may find this scope and tier structure more than they need.
