What you can do with accessibility facts

ScoutAPI delivers a11y as structured raw data — either as a quick inventory (headings, links, landmarks) or a full axe run. No soft judgments, just facts for CI and agents.

A11y snapshot: inventories without an axe run
Raw axe violations including nodes and impact
Viewport controls what is visible and counted in the snapshot
Usable as a release gate or regression check in pipelines
