Biggest opportunity: Swap “ada” and “compliance” for “ada compliance” and “section 508”. “ada” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “ada compliance” sits at #22 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “compliance” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “section 508” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 2K of 24.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,769 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 3 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

Kind reminder that accessibility can’t take shortcuts. It’s like telling an online shop owner there is a widget that fixes all their UX issue. As a UX Designer, I can tell it’s impossible. As an accessibility expert, I can tell this kind of solution only bring more complexity to the disable folks’ experience. In January 2025, the US Federal Trade Commission ordered [similar solution name] to pay $1 million (subject to a thirty day finalisation period) due to misrepresentation that its software could make any website compliant with WCAG. Also, WCAG isn’t necessarily what’s needed in your country. (France is RGAA, Luxembourg is RAWeb, Europe is EN 301 549)Best is to stay informed, and don’t install a magic wand that is more of a black box.

No features at all until connected to their application. Pointless also as their scripts do the same job so waste of time

You need to pay to activate this and you only find that out after you download the add in.

Truly plug and play. This plugin will significantly improve the accessibility of your WordPress website in a matter of clicks. Great customer support, and fantastic ease of use.

I work as a freelancer and I’m thoroughly satisfied with AudioEye! It was my first time using the product and it was fantastic. I used my subscription as an “extended trial” for one of my clients, and she was completely satisfied with how quickly her site was up to speed with all the accessibility requirements. I will renew my subscription as soon as any of my future clients require upgrading their website’s accessibility.

Hello All! After installing AudioEye and a very quick set up I was completely relieved. I have been worried since I started managing websites that my efforts were not enough. After speaking to several agents from AudioEye I felt confident that this plugin would be the answer to the gaps in accessibility. The team at AudioEye is patient in answering questions and are very accessible for support after installation.

I put AudioEye on my client’s website last week and he’s already received a ‘thank you’ from one of his clients. It seems as if the automated tests and fixes go a long way. My client was also happy to see that there is legal support in the base plan. The install was super easy, I will be offering this plugin for all future law related websites I create.
