Detailed Reports
What is the Reports page?
The Reports page is where you can view and generate complete reports on your website's accessibility. It allows you to analyze your scan data in different ways, see detailed statistics, and export results in various formats to share with your team or keep as documentation.
How to get started?
If you haven't performed any scans yet, you'll see a message inviting you to upload a sitemap and start scanning pages. Once you have at least one completed scan, you'll be able to see detailed reports.
Report Types
At the top of the page you can choose between four different report types, each with a specific focus:
General Overview
This is the default report that shows you an overall view of your site's accessibility status. It includes:
- Key metrics
- Issue distribution by severity
- Priority recommendations
It's the ideal starting point to quickly understand how your site is doing.
Detailed Analysis
This report shows all the issues found, organized by category. Each category includes:
- A description of what it covers
- The number of issues found
- Examples of specific issues with recommendations on how to fix them
It's useful when you want to see all the details and understand exactly what needs to be fixed.
WCAG Compliance
This report focuses on compliance with WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards. It shows you:
- Compliance score for Level A
- Compliance score for Level AA
- Total number of issues for each level
- Number of critical issues for each level
It's essential if you need to demonstrate compliance with accessibility standards.
Trends
This report shows how your site's compliance changes over time. It allows you to see if you're improving or getting worse over time, based on scans performed.
Note: To see trends, you need to have performed multiple scans over time. If you only have one scan, you'll see a message inviting you to perform more scans.
Report Export
At the top of the page you can export reports in different formats:
PDF
The PDF format is ideal for:
- Sharing reports with clients or stakeholders
- Keeping printable documentation
- Including reports in presentations
When you click "PDF", you'll first see a preview of the report. You can review the content and then download it when you're ready.
Required permissions: Pro account or higher
CSV
The CSV (Comma Separated Values) format is useful for:
- Analyzing data in Excel or Google Sheets
- Creating custom charts
- Processing data with other tools
The CSV file contains all scan data in tabular format.
Required permissions: Enterprise account
JSON
The JSON format is ideal for:
- Integrating data with other systems
- Analyzing data programmatically
- Storing data in structured format
The JSON file contains all data in structured format that can be read by applications and scripts.
Required permissions: Enterprise account
Key Metrics
In the "General Overview" report you see four key metrics:
Scanned Pages
This metric shows how many pages you've successfully analyzed. It's the total number of completed scans.
Critical Issues
This metric shows how many critical issues have been found on your site. Critical issues are those that prevent or make it very difficult to access content for users with disabilities.
Compliance Score
This metric shows the average compliance score of your site. It's a percentage indicating how accessible your site is:
- 80-100%: Excellent! The site is very accessible
- 60-79%: Good, but there's room for improvement
- 40-59%: The site has several issues to resolve
- Below 40%: Critical situation, many issues to fix
Pages to Fix
This metric shows how many pages have at least one critical issue that requires immediate attention.
Issue Distribution by Severity
This section shows how issues are distributed based on their severity:
Critical
Critical issues are those that completely prevent or make it very difficult to access content. They must be resolved immediately because they severely violate accessibility.
Examples: Images without alt text, links without descriptive text, forms without labels.
Warning
Warning issues reduce site usability but don't completely prevent access. It's advisable to fix them to improve user experience.
Examples: Non-optimal color contrast, small font sizes, non-optimal navigation.
Info
Info issues are suggestions for improvements that can make the site even more accessible. They're not critical but improve overall experience.
Examples: Suggestions to improve structure, minor optimizations, best practices.
Priority Recommendations
This section shows you the most important actions to take to improve your site's accessibility. Each recommendation includes:
- Title: A brief description of the issue
- Description: Detailed explanation of what it means and why it's important
- Priority: High, Medium, or Low - indicates how urgent it is to fix the issue
- Affected pages: How many pages are affected by this issue
- WCAG reference: The reference to WCAG standards that this issue violates
Recommendations are ordered by priority, so start with the first ones to have maximum impact.
If there are no priority recommendations, you'll see a congratulations message! It means your site is already very accessible.
WCAG Compliance
In the "WCAG Compliance" report you see detailed analysis for the two main levels:
Level A
Level A is the basic level of accessibility. It includes fundamental requirements that must be met to make a site minimally accessible.
For each level you see:
- Total issues: How many issues were found that violate this level
- Critical issues: How many of these issues are critical
- Compliance score: A percentage indicating how much your site respects this level
Level AA
Level AA is the standard recommended level for most websites. It includes stricter requirements that significantly improve accessibility.
For Level AA you also see the same indicators as Level A.
Goal: Most sites should aim to achieve at least Level AA compliance.
Detailed Analysis by Category
In the "Detailed Analysis" report you see all issues organized by category. Each category represents a specific type of accessibility issue.
For each category you see:
- Name: The category name (e.g., "Images", "Links", "Forms")
- Description: An explanation of what this category covers
- Number of issues: How many issues were found in this category
- Examples: Up to 3 examples of specific issues with related recommendations
If a category has more than 3 issues, you'll see a message indicating how many other issues there are.
This view is very useful for understanding which areas of your site have the most issues and where to focus your improvement efforts.
Trend Analysis
In the "Trends" report you can see how your site's compliance changes over time.
How it works
The report shows the last 3 available data points, each representing a scan or time period. For each point you see:
- Date: When the scan was performed
- Compliance score: The compliance score at that time
- Number of scans: How many scans were included in the calculation
How to interpret trends
- Increasing score: Excellent! It means you're fixing issues and improving accessibility
- Stable score: The site maintains a good level of accessibility
- Decreasing score: Could indicate that new content with issues was added or that some issues weren't resolved
Note: To see significant trends, it's important to perform scans regularly, for example every week or every month.
Data Refresh
Reports are automatically updated when you complete a new scan. You can also manually refresh the data by clicking the "Refresh" button at the top of the page.
This is useful if:
- You've just completed a scan and want to see updated results
- You suspect the displayed data isn't up to date
- You want to make sure you're seeing the most recent information
