Website accessibility monitoring means checking your site against standards like WCAG on a schedule, instead of auditing it once and hoping for the best. Some teams call it website compliance monitoring, others call it accessibility compliance software. The job is the same: Askem scans every page of your site each week, flags accessibility issues, broken links, and readability problems, and tells your team what to fix first.
