About the Mendvale ‑ Accessibility
Mendvale scans your Shopify store for accessibility problems using axe-core technology. Unlike other accessibility apps that add overlay widgets, Mendvale works directly with your product data to find and fix missing alt text that standard DOM scanners can't detect.
The app audits your product catalog at the source, identifies accessibility issues, and generates alt text descriptions for your approval before writing any changes. No JavaScript widgets run on your storefront, and nothing rewrites your store at runtime.
Mendvale automatically creates an accessibility statement that serves as a dated record of your WCAG 2.1 AA compliance work. Weekly re-scans monitor your store for changes and alert you when accessibility statements need updates. The app clearly states that automated testing catches approximately 30 to 40 percent of WCAG 2.1 AA issues, setting realistic expectations on every screen.
