Scheduled Scans

Overview

Scheduled scans run full site crawls automatically on a recurring basis. You’ll be notified when new issues are found, so accessibility regressions don’t go unnoticed.

This is a Pro feature. Upgrade to Pro to enable scheduled scans.

Under Scheduled Scans, enable the toggle
Choose your frequency

Tips

Start with weekly scans and adjust based on how often your content changes
Use email notifications at minimum — catching regressions early prevents issues from accumulating
Review scan results within a few days of each scheduled scan
Combine with Monitoring & Alerts for real-time regression detection
