About In The Clear
Accessibility reviews, written by an engineer.
We check whether websites meet the European Accessibility Act and the ADA, and show you exactly what to fix, in plain words your developer can act on.
Small on purpose
The person who tests your site writes your report and answers your questions.
No account managers, no handoffs, and every review gets our full attention.

The standard
WCAG 2.2 AA
for the EAA and the ADA
Four rules every review follows
Whatever the size of your site, these don't change.
Rule 01
Plain answers, not certificates.
Nobody can certify a site after one review. We tell you where it stands and what to fix first.
Rule 02
A sample, tested carefully.
Your key pages and journeys, tested with keyboard and screen readers. Not every page, and we say so.
Rule 03
Findings a developer can act on.
Each issue points to the rule it breaks, what people run into, and a suggested fix.
Rule 04
No overlays, no shortcuts.
A widget on top of your site doesn't fix the code underneath. We won't sell you one.
What a review isn't
Better you hear it from us now than find out later.
Not legal advice
We tell you where your site stands against the standard. For legal questions, talk to a lawyer who knows accessibility law.
Not a guarantee
A review is a sample at one point in time. New pages, plugins and redesigns can bring new issues.
Not user research
We use the screen readers and tools people rely on, but a review doesn't replace testing with disabled users. We'll tell you when that's worth adding.
Not the fixes themselves
Your developer or agency makes the changes. We answer their questions and check the fixes once they're live.

I started In The Clear after 10 years as a software engineer.
In that time, I saw how rarely accessibility comes up. Designs get signed off and code gets shipped without anyone checking whether someone using a screen reader or a keyboard can actually use the thing. Usually nobody means harm. It just never makes the list. But for the people shut out, the result is the same, and that's not right. In The Clear is my way of helping fix it.
My engineering background shapes every review. I write findings the way I'd want to get them as a developer: specific, tied to the exact rule, with a fix you can start on. Nothing in the report is a matter of taste.
I'm based in Serbia and we work in English with businesses in Europe and the US. When you get in touch, you talk to someone who works on your review, not a sales team.

Fair questions
What people usually ask us before they book.
Who actually works on my review?
The person who tests your site also writes the report and answers your developer's questions. No account managers and no handoffs, so nothing gets lost between the testing and the report.
Do you work with businesses outside Europe?
Yes. The European Accessibility Act and the ADA in the US both lead back to WCAG, so the review itself is the same. We'll mention which rules are likely to matter for you, but we're not lawyers.
Why choose a small company over a big agency?
Because your review gets full attention. We take on a limited number of reviews at a time, and you deal directly with the person doing the work. Every finding names the page, the exact rule it breaks and what people run into, so your developer can check it. The sample report (PDF, 2.4 MB) shows exactly what you get.
Questions first? Ask us.
Tell us about your site and what's on your mind. You'll get a straight answer from the person who'd do the review, even if it's "you don't need us."
