Questions & Answers

As answered by people managing Plingzine.
  1. Why should a person choose Plingzine over its competitors?

    It's free to scan, needs no account, and returns a result in ~30 seconds — versus tools that gate everything behind a signup or an enterprise quote. Every issue comes with a plain-English explanation and a step-by-step fix, not just a WCAG code. It runs on axe-core and checks against WCAG 2.2 AA, the standard behind the EAA and ADA. If you need more: weekly monitoring ($19.99/mo) alerts you when your score drops, and a one-time $39.99 full-site PDF audit crawls every page — no subscription lock-in.

  2. What's the story behind Plingzine?

    The European Accessibility Act turned accessibility into a hard deadline for a lot of sites, and most teams had no fast way to know where they stood. Existing checkers were either too technical (raw violation dumps) or too sales-driven (signup walls and enterprise quotes). Plingzine was built to give a straight answer in 30 seconds: a score, the issues that matter most, and how to fix each one — in language a non-specialist can act on.

  3. What makes Plingzine unique?

    Most accessibility checkers either dump raw axe-core violations or hide everything behind a signup and a sales call. Plingzine returns a single 0–100 readiness score for any URL in about 30 seconds, with no signup, and explains every issue in plain English with a concrete fix. Issues are ordered by how much they actually affect real visitors — not by how easy they are to detect. It's also honest about its limits: it tells you automated checks catch only 30–50% of WCAG issues, so it's a starting point, not a compliance stamp.

  4. How would you describe the primary audience of Plingzine?

    Developers, designers, and small agencies who need a quick, honest read on a site's accessibility — before a client, a launch, or an EAA/ADA deadline forces the issue. It's for people who want to understand and fix problems themselves, not buy a compliance certificate. Agencies also use the full-site PDF report to show clients exactly where a site stands.

  5. Which are the primary technologies used for building Plingzine?

    Next.js (React) and Tailwind CSS on the frontend, running on Node.js. Accessibility scanning is powered by axe-core against WCAG 2.2 AA. Payments are handled through Paddle.
