A big thank-you to Equalize Digital for joining us as a Gold sponsor! Their expertise inspires a greater awareness of accessibility throughout the WordPress community and beyond.

About Equalize Digital

Equalize Digital is a mission-driven WordPress agency dedicated to building a web where everyone, regardless of ability, has equal access to information, products, and tools.

Their flagship product, the Accessibility Checker plugin, helps WordPress websites become and stay accessible. The Accessibility Checker plugin is trusted by major universities, government agencies, and businesses — including Colorado State University, StellarWP, Mint Mobile, Trinchero Family Wine & Spirits, and NASA.

The Accessibility Checker provides native accessibility reports directly on the WordPress post-edit screen, allowing content managers to identify and resolve problems before they hit publish.

What puts the Accessibility Checker above the rest? It makes accessibility governance easier and more affordable: no waiting for weekly scans, no retroactive fixes on published pages, and no per-page fees. The plugin also includes 15 automated fixes for common accessibility issues found in WordPress themes and plugins.

For WordPress developers and agencies, Accessibility Checker is a great way to start identifying accessibility problems on your client websites. Use it to test new websites you build or start growing recurring revenue with accessibility remediation plans.

Beyond the Accessibility Checker plugin, Equalize Digital offers a number of accessibility services, including audits, user testing, WordPress accessibility remediation, training, and VPAT/Accessibility Conformance Report generation for WordPress plugins and other software products.

Equalize Digital is also a proud organizer and sponsor of WordPress Accessibility Day and runs the official WordPress Accessibility Meetup, highlighting their commitment to advancing accessibility education and community support.

Why Equalize Digital Supports WordPress Accessibility Day

Equalize Digital’s mission is to make the web a more accessible place for everyone. That’s why the company is proud to sponsor WP Accessibility Day. As creators of the Accessibility Checker plugin, active contributors in the WordPress accessibility community, and organizers of the WordPress Accessibility Meetup, the team knows that education is key to meaningful progress.

For Equalize Digital, accessibility isn’t just about checking boxes or meeting legal requirements: it’s about understanding the real-world impact that inaccessible websites have on people with disabilities. Many developers and content creators want to do the right thing but haven’t had the opportunity to learn how. That’s why Equalize Digital puts so much effort into promoting accessibility education. They believes that knowledge is power — it’s one of their core values.

Equalize Digital supports events like WP Accessibility Day that help raise awareness, build skills, and empower developers, designers, and content creators to prioritize accessibility in their work. By supporting this event, Equalize Digital is investing in a more inclusive future, not just for the WordPress community, but for all users of the web.

Leading by Example Accessibility Starts as a Core Value

Accessibility is central to everything Equalize Digital does, and that includes their own website and online presence. The company views its site not only as a way to reach customers but also as a reflection of its values and a place to demonstrate what accessibility best practices look like in action.

Equalize Digital regularly audits its website using both automated tools—like the Accessibility Checker plugin—and manual testing with screen readers and keyboard navigation. The team includes people with disabilities in its testing processes and has implemented numerous improvements based on their feedback, including clear heading structures, accessible forms, visible focus indicators, and ARIA enhancements where needed.

One tip the team always shares: accessibility is not a one-time project. Websites evolve, content changes, and plugins or themes may introduce new issues. Accessibility should be treated as an ongoing process. Equalize Digital encourages the use of tools that alert teams to issues in real time as they’re building, the involvement of people with disabilities in usability testing, and continuous learning as a priority for every team.
