Why accessibility overlays are not diligence
About a quarter of sued sites already had an overlay widget. Why Curbcut sells a hash-chained record instead of a storefront overlay — and never claims compliance.
The market already paid for the wrong product
Industry trackers report that roughly 25% of websites sued for accessibility already had an overlay or widget installed. Overlays do not prevent demand letters, and the FTC has punished deceptive compliance claims around automated accessibility tools.
What actually moves a negotiation
Counsel asks what you knew, when you knew it, and what you did. A dated, hash-chained scan history with issue lifecycle is a diligence artifact. A widget in the footer is not.
What Curbcut will never say
We do not claim your store is compliant, certified, or WCAG-conformant. We do not inject storefront scripts. We record scans and changes so you can show your work.
