Designer ToolsAccessibility audits
Designer Tools includes an accessibility audit powered by axe-core. It runs entirely in-page, so you can catch violations without switching tabs or pasting URLs into external scanners.
Launch a scan
Switch to the Accessibility tab in the toolbar. The extension hides visual clutter by disabling rulers and starts a scan a few hundred milliseconds after the tab loads. You will see a badge on the toolbar showing the total number of issues found.
Understand the results
The sidebar groups findings by rule. Expanding a violation highlights matching nodes in the DOM and lists actionable guidance pulled from axe. We strip Designer Tools' own UI from the results so you only see issues from the host page.
Iterate quickly
- Click a node to jump to it in the Elements panel inside DevTools.
- Fix the issue and hit "Re-run audit" to refresh the scan.
- Use Measure or Grid after the scan; when you leave the Accessibility tab we restore your previous toolbar layout automatically.
Accessibility is a PRO feature. Trial users get full access; signed-in customers on lower tiers see an upgrade prompt and are returned to Measure. Keep the website backend running so auth checks succeed, otherwise the login wall appears.
