Accessibility Reports: Share your progess with key stakeholders

Accessibility improvements don’t sell themselves. You’ve been fixing issues, improving scores, expanding coverage, but when leadership asks for a status update, what do you hand over? A screenshot of a dashboard they can’t log into?

The problem: accessibility progress stays invisible

People responsible for accessibility know things are getting better. Issues are down, scores are up, more pages are covered. But the people who control budget and priorities never see any of it.

When asked to report on accessibility status - for a board pack, a compliance review, a quarterly update - most teams end up with three bad options: screenshot the dashboard (clunky, no context), forward the monthly email notification (too brief to be useful), or simply don’t report at all. That last one is the most common. And when accessibility progress is invisible to leadership, it’s harder to justify continued investment in the work.

The solution: professional reports you can share with anyone

A11y Pulse now generates polished accessibility reports designed to be shared with senior leadership.

From any scan, click Download PDF Report to preview a comprehensive report that covers everything leadership needs to see:

An executive summary that tells the story. Not just numbers - a narrative. “46 more pages were scanned compared to 3 weeks ago, which surfaced 7 new issues. Broader coverage is a good thing.” The kind of framing that helps non-technical stakeholders actually understand what’s happening.

Executive summary with accessibility score, issues found, audits passed, and pages scanned, each showing change over time

Scan history trends. A chart showing issues found and pages scanned over time - so leadership can see the trajectory, not just a single snapshot.

Issues that need attention, and audits that are passing. The report doesn’t just highlight problems - it celebrates what’s working. 44 audits with no issues and 1,302 checks passed site wide is a story worth telling.

A detailed appendix with per-audit breakdowns, affected pages, and failing element counts - for anyone who wants to dig deeper.

Why this matters

Accessibility gets executive priority when it has executive visibility. A professional report that frames progress as a narrative - not a data dump - gives leadership something they’ll actually read. When progress is visible, it’s easier to celebrate wins, justify continued investment, and keep the organisation committed to doing the right thing.

Built from a real need

This feature was built in direct response to a customer whose senior team asked them to report on accessibility status - and they had nothing to hand over. If that sounds familiar, this is for you.
