# PBIX A11y — pbiaudits.com

> A free, browser-based Power BI accessibility checker. Upload a .pbix, .pbip, or .pbir file and get an instant WCAG audit — all parsing happens locally in your browser. No file, data, or content is ever sent to a server or AI model.

PBIX A11y (published at pbiaudits.com) helps Power BI report creators, accessibility consultants, and BI developers make reports readable and usable for everyone. It runs eight deterministic accessibility checks against your report file and returns plain-English findings with exact locations to fix them in Power BI Desktop.

## What the tool checks

- Colour contrast (WCAG 2.2 AA, using APCA where relevant)
- Alt text presence and quality on visuals and images
- Visual clutter and cognitive load per page
- Chart, page, and visual titles
- Font scaling and minimum readable font sizes
- Tab order and keyboard navigation sequence
- Custom visual accessibility risk
- Colour-blindness safety (via the dedicated CVD simulator)
