Accessibility Made Simple: acolono Launches Audit-Package with an Additional Pledge for the Drupal Community

Accessibility is complex–but it doesn’t have to be. That’s why, in reaction to the European Accessibility Act, Austrian digital agency acolono GmbH, in collaboration with Webshapers GmbH, is proud to launch a new accessibility audit package designed to help organizations quickly pinpoint and address gaps in digital compliance. The service aims to make it easier than ever for Drupal projects to become accessible by offering a focused review rather than exhaustive, time-intensive audits.

Priced at €1,950 ($2,250), the package evaluates up to five representative pages against WCAG 2.2 Level AA, the internationally recognized accessibility standard. Certified experts carry out the review using a mix of manual testing, automated tools, and real-world checks such as keyboard navigation and screen reader use.

Clients receive a PDF report within 14 days. The document includes a clear summary of issues, severity ratings (minor, moderate, critical), screenshots where needed, and a prioritized roadmap with suggestions for developers, designers, and UX teams to act on. As Christian Ziegler, CEO of acolono notes in their service description:

“We don’t just check accessibility — we help teams take real action. This means better user experience, higher conversions, and protects against legal risks,”

Special Discount and Donation Pledge for the Drupal Community

To recognize Drupal’s strong accessibility culture, acolono is offering a 20% discount to members of the Drupal Association, “Ripple Makers,” and Drupal-certified partners. With this discount, the audit costs €1,560 ($1,810).

Alongside the reduced price, the agency has pledged a donation of $200 split between the Drupal Association and Drupal Austria Association for each discounted package.

“Accessibility is at the heart of Drupal. With this offer, we aim to make inclusive web projects more accessible — and give back to the community that makes them possible. With every audit, Drupal itself gets stronger.”

–Nico Grienauer, CEO, acolono GmbH

Focus: Four Pillars of Accessibility

The offering focuses on four accessibility pillars:

  • Perceptibility: ensuring content can be seen and understood (alt texts, color contrast, media)
  • Usability: making navigation seamless (keyboard control, focus order)
  • Comprehensibility: keeping interactions intuitive (labels, instructions, forms)
  • Robustness: building on solid code foundations (semantic HTML, ARIA attributes)

By focusing on these essentials, the package provides fast, actionable guidance without the overhead of full-site audits, complex user testing or legal documentation like VPATs. It keeps the process simple, affordable and effective.

“No meetings, no extra steps — just send the links and receive the results.”
