What is ARC Platform
ARC Platform is a digital accessibility platform used to test, monitor, and manage conformance of websites and digital products against accessibility standards such as WCAG. It supports accessibility teams, QA, developers, and compliance stakeholders with automated scanning, issue tracking, and reporting workflows. The platform combines tooling for evaluation with program governance features intended to support ongoing accessibility operations across multiple properties.
End-to-end accessibility workflow
ARC Platform supports multiple stages of an accessibility program, including discovery, testing, remediation tracking, and reporting. This helps teams move beyond one-time scans toward repeatable processes. It is suited to organizations that need to coordinate work across developers, QA, and compliance roles.
Automated and guided testing
The platform includes automated checks and structured evaluation workflows to identify common accessibility issues at scale. This can reduce manual effort for baseline coverage while still supporting deeper review where automation is insufficient. It fits teams that need consistent testing practices across many pages or applications.
Program reporting and governance
ARC Platform provides reporting intended for tracking progress over time and communicating status to stakeholders. This supports governance use cases such as prioritization, audit readiness, and accountability across business units. It aligns with organizations that must demonstrate ongoing accessibility management rather than ad hoc fixes.
Manual expertise still required
Like other accessibility platforms, ARC Platform cannot fully validate accessibility through automation alone. Many WCAG success criteria require human judgment, assistive technology testing, and design review. Organizations typically still need trained accessibility specialists to interpret findings and validate fixes.
Implementation and process overhead
To realize value beyond scanning, teams often need to integrate the platform into SDLC workflows and define ownership for remediation and governance. This can require change management, training, and ongoing administration. Smaller teams may find the operational model heavier than point tools.
Coverage varies by environment
Depth of testing and ease of deployment can vary depending on whether the target is a static website, a complex single-page application, or authenticated flows. Some environments require additional configuration to scan reliably and to avoid false positives/negatives. Buyers should validate support for their tech stack and testing scenarios during evaluation.
