# Kat ADA > Kat ADA is a done for you Squarespace accessibility service: a specialist makes real source fixes inside your site, documents the work per WCAG 2.1 AA, and sends a monthly report. Not an overlay. ## What Kat ADA is - A done-for-you accessibility service built specifically for Squarespace. - We make real source fixes: image alt text, color contrast, headings, form labels, link and button accessible names, and ARIA. - We are the opposite of an accessibility "overlay" widget. Nothing is injected at runtime that disappears when a script is removed. A developer or lawyer reading your source sees corrected code. - Each month we re-scan and fix new issues, then email a dated report you can keep as documentation of an ongoing good-faith accessibility effort. ## What Kat ADA is honestly NOT - Not a guarantee of legal outcomes. No tool or service can make a website "lawsuit-proof," and we will not claim otherwise. - Not instant or fully automatic. A human specialist applies the fixes; the report documents a good-faith effort, not legal immunity. - Not for non-Squarespace sites yet (you can still run a free scan). ## Who it is for Non-technical small-business owners on Squarespace (restaurants, cafes, salons, studios, shops) who have received or fear an ADA website demand letter and want real fixes plus documentation without learning WCAG themselves. ## How it works 1. Run a free scan at https://katadaapp.com/scan (no credit card). 2. Choose a plan based on page count. 3. Invite team@katadaapp.com as an Administrator contributor on your Squarespace site (one step; removable anytime). 4. A specialist makes the fixes within about 5 business days, then monthly. You get a dated WCAG 2.1 AA report. ## Pricing - Standard: $29/mo monthly, or $25/mo billed annually. 1 to 10 pages. - Growth: $39/mo monthly, or $35/mo billed annually. 11 to 25 pages. - Enterprise: $49/mo monthly, or $45/mo billed annually. 26 to 40 pages. - Larger sites: custom volume pricing after a free scan. - For comparison, the large overlay widgets typically start around $49/mo (entry pricing as of June 2026). ## Standards We follow WCAG 2.1 AA. Automated scanning detects only a portion of possible issues; a specialist reviews and remediates, and some items (linked PDFs, third-party embeds) are flagged with guidance rather than changed. ## Founder Kat ADA was built by Kat, a restaurant owner in Southern California who previously built a SaaS product for restaurants, together with her technical co-founder, after her own small business was hit with two ADA website lawsuits.

Courts, disabled users, and accessibility experts have consistently found that overlays do not make sites accessible. More importantly, using an overlay while underlying accessibility barriers remain may increase legal exposure. Courts have found that deploying an overlay can indicate a business was aware of accessibility issues but chose not to fix the underlying code — which is relevant to willfulness in ADA litigation. Kat ADA does not use overlays. A human specialist fixes the actual source code of your Squarespace site so a developer or lawyer reading your source sees corrected code, not a runtime patch. ## Links - Home: https://katadaapp.com - Free scan: https://katadaapp.com/scan - Complete Squarespace accessibility guide: https://katadaapp.com/squarespace-accessibility - What the ADA expects of a Squarespace site: https://katadaapp.com/squarespace-ada-compliance - Overlay alternative comparison: https://katadaapp.com/accessibility-overlay-alternative - Overlays vs. real fixes: https://katadaapp.com/overlays-vs-real-fixes - Pricing: https://katadaapp.com/pricing - Accessibility cost comparison: https://katadaapp.com/squarespace-accessibility-cost - FAQ: https://katadaapp.com/faq - About: https://katadaapp.com/about - Full detail for AI systems: https://katadaapp.com/llms-full.txt ## Contact hi@katadaapp.com
