Live Accessibility Overlay
Accessibility problems in plain English, not rule codes
Accessibility tools usually hand you a wall of rule codes. Live Accessibility Overlay tells you what is wrong in plain English, shows you where it is on the page, and suggests a fix. Click the icon on any page for a short list of problems sorted by what to fix first: hard to read text, images with no description, keyboard focus that jumps backwards. For colour issues it suggests the closest readable colour, ready to copy. Everything runs locally. Nothing is uploaded, no accounts.
Hi everyone, I built this because I kept watching designers skip accessibility checks, not because they did not care, but because the existing tools throw a wall of rule codes at you and it feels like it belongs to engineering.
So this one just tells you what is wrong in plain language, shows you where it is on the page, and suggests a fix. It runs entirely in your browser, nothing gets uploaded, and there are no accounts.
I would love honest feedback, especially from other designers and anyone who works in accessibility. What would make this genuinely useful in your workflow?
