Aulys

Design Code Scan Monitor

Accessibility for the whole product lifecycle.

Most tools watch one phase. Aulys follows a single issue from the first frame to production — one score, one history, one team.

The loop

One issue, tracked end to end.

A contrast issue caught in Figma is the same record tracked through code, staging, and production. The score travels with it.

Why it breaks

Every tool owns one phase. The gaps are where issues escape.

Accessibility tools mapped to the lifecycle phase each one owns, and the gap it leaves.

The grade

You don’t pass or fail. You raise your grade.

Aulys scores every frame A–F and explains the why, not just the flag. WCAG is the floor. Here’s one of 13 checks, the way Aulys shows it.

Color contrast

WCAG 1.4.6 · Level AAA
What
Text needs a 7:1 contrast ratio against its background to meet AAA — 4.5:1 for AA.
Why it matters
Low contrast is the single most common barrier on the web. It shuts out people with low vision, and everyone else in bright sun or on a bad screen.
How Aulys catches it
Reads the exact fill and text colors of your frame, computes the ratio, and shows the nearest passing color — before the issue ever reaches code.

The ecosystem

One engine. Every phase of the loop.

Two surfaces are live today; the rest are on the way. We label each one honestly — the loop is where we’re headed, and we’d rather show the map than fake the destination.

§05 · The proof

We hold our own site to the standard we sell.

An accessibility company whose own site fails is finished. So this one is built to AAA — keyboard-complete, reduced-motion honored. The day it ships, we scan it with Aulys and publish the real grade right here. No fabricated number until then.
