Welcome to the Clevyre Accessibility Widget.

Welcome

Clevyre Accessibility Widget empowers Shopify merchants to deliver inclusive shopping experiences that comply with the world's leading accessibility standards — WCAG, ADA, EAA, AODA, and BFSG. With 25+ built-in tools, five ready-made accessibility profiles, and zero coding required, Clevyre puts full compliance within reach of every store owner, from solo founders to enterprise teams.

What is WCAG, ADA, and EAA compliance?

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and European Accessibility Act (EAA) are the essential standards that ensure online stores are accessible to all users and prevent discrimination against people with disabilities. Together, they form the global framework for digital inclusion — and non-compliance can result in legal action, reputational damage, and lost revenue.

WCAG — the global standard

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) serve as the global playbook for making websites accessible to everyone. Published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the most widely adopted benchmark and forms the technical backbone of accessibility law in most countries. It covers four core principles — content must be Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, and Robust (POUR).

ADA — the United States requirement

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires U.S. businesses to make their digital content accessible to people with disabilities. Courts have consistently ruled that commercial websites are "places of public accommodation" under the ADA, meaning inaccessible Shopify stores are exposed to federal lawsuits. ADA compliance is largely measured against WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

EAA — the European mandate

The European Accessibility Act (EAA) sets common accessibility rules across all EU member states, with enforcement that began in June 2025. Merchants selling into Europe — regardless of where they are headquartered — must meet EAA requirements. The EAA aligns closely with WCAG 2.1, making a single well-implemented widget effective across all three major frameworks.

Advantages of Clevyre Accessibility Widget

Clevyre is purpose-built for Shopify merchants who need real compliance coverage without developer overhead. Here is what sets it apart.

1. Meets WCAG 2.1 Level AA, ADA, EAA, AODA, and BFSG standards. Clevyre is one of the only Shopify accessibility apps that explicitly supports five international compliance frameworks in a single installation. Whether your customers are in the United States, Canada, or the European Union, Clevyre covers the regulatory requirements that apply to your store.
2. Creates inclusive shopping experiences. With five pre-built accessibility profiles — Low Vision, Dyslexia, Seizure Safe, Motor Impairment, and Cognitive/ADHD — Clevyre adapts the storefront to match the specific needs of each visitor. This goes beyond legal compliance: it builds genuine trust and loyalty with customers who have disabilities.
3. Zero coding required. Clevyre installs directly from the Shopify App Store and activates in minutes. No theme edits, no developer involvement, and no disruption to your existing store design. The widget floats on every page automatically once the app is enabled.
4. Built-in analytics dashboard. On paid plans, Clevyre provides an analytics dashboard that shows how visitors interact with accessibility features — which profiles they activate, which tools they use most, and how engagement trends over time. This data helps merchants make informed decisions about further accessibility improvements.
5. Fully customisable to match your brand. The Clevyre widget is designed to integrate seamlessly with any storefront. Merchants can customise the widget's colours, position, language, and display settings to preserve their visual identity while meeting compliance requirements.

What are the functionalities of Clevyre Accessibility Widget?

Clevyre provides 25+ accessibility tools organised into intuitive categories, giving every visitor the ability to tailor their browsing experience to their needs. Below is a complete overview of the available functionalities.

Visual aids

Clevyre's visual adjustment tools help users with low vision, colour blindness, or light sensitivity browse comfortably:

• High contrast mode — increases foreground/background contrast for users with low vision
• Dark and light contrast modes — switches the entire page to dark or light themes for reduced eye strain
• Colour saturation controls — adjusts the intensity of on-screen colours
• Grayscale mode — removes all colour from the page for users with colour processing sensitivities
• Brightness adjustment — reduces or increases screen brightness without leaving the store
• Enhanced link highlighting — makes all clickable links visually distinct and easy to identify

Content settings

Users can personalise the text and layout of your storefront to match their reading preferences:

• Flexible text sizing — increases or decreases all on-page text without breaking the layout
• Custom text alignment — switches between left, centre, and right text alignment for readability
• Letter spacing controls — widens or tightens the space between characters
• Line height adjustment — increases vertical spacing between lines for easier reading
• Dyslexia-friendly font — replaces default fonts with a typeface specifically designed for users with dyslexia
• Text magnification — enlarges specific sections of text on demand

Reading tools

Clevyre's reading tools help users with cognitive disabilities, ADHD, or attention challenges stay focused:

• Text-to-speech — reads all on-page content aloud, supporting users who are blind or have reading difficulties
• Voice navigation — allows users to navigate the store using spoken commands
• Keyboard navigation — enables full store navigation without a mouse, supporting motor-impaired users
• Reading guide / line focus — highlights a single line of text at a time to reduce distraction
• Reading mask — darkens the surrounding content so users can focus on one section
• Animation and video pause controls — stops moving content that may trigger seizures or distract users
• Image hiding — removes images from view for users who find visual content distracting
• Cursor size adjustment — enlarges the mouse cursor for users with limited hand control

Ready-made accessibility profiles

Clevyre includes five pre-configured profiles that apply the correct combination of settings automatically — no manual adjustment needed.

Multi-language support and widget customisation

Clevyre supports stores in multiple languages, automatically adapting the widget interface to match the visitor's browser language or the merchant's preferred setting. The widget's position, colour scheme, icon style, and trigger button can all be customised from the Clevyre dashboard — ensuring the tool integrates naturally with any Shopify theme.

Analytics dashboard (paid plans)

Merchants on Starter, Growth, or Scale plans gain access to the Clevyre analytics dashboard, which tracks:

• Which accessibility profiles visitors activate most frequently
• Which individual features are used and how often
• Accessibility engagement trends over time
• Impression volume and usage against plan limits

This data makes it possible to demonstrate accessibility commitment to auditors or legal teams, and to prioritise further improvements based on real user behaviour.

Pricing plans

Clevyre offers a free plan to help merchants get started immediately, with affordable paid tiers for stores that need higher impression volumes, analytics, and priority support.

In short

Web accessibility is no longer a nice-to-have — it is a legal requirement in the United States, across the European Union, in Canada, and in the UK. For Shopify merchants, the challenge has traditionally been the cost and complexity of achieving real compliance.

Clevyre Accessibility Widget turns that challenge into an opportunity. With 25+ tools, five pre-built accessibility profiles, zero coding required, and support for five international compliance standards (WCAG, ADA, EAA, AODA, BFSG), Clevyre provides everything a Shopify store needs to become genuinely inclusive — and legally protected — from day one.

Start with the free plan and experience the difference first-hand. When you are ready to scale, upgrade to a paid tier to unlock analytics, higher impression volumes, and dedicated VIP support.
