What you get

The same toolkit on every platform.

The widget, the dashboard and audits work the same however your site was built. What you get depends on your plan, not your platform.

Widget

A widget your visitors control.

Font Size, High Contrast, Dyslexic Font, Reading Mask, Text to Speech and 13 more. 18 adjustments in one panel.

Languages

44 languages.

Pick the widget's language, or let it follow each visitor's browser. Visitors can switch it in the panel.

Profiles

Four one-tap profiles.

Low Vision, Cognitive, ADHD and Motor Impairment each turn on a set of adjustments at once.

Audits

Audits with WCAG criteria.

Scan pages on a schedule or on demand. Each issue shows its WCAG criterion and the elements affected.

AI alt text

Alt text where it's missing.

On Growth and Enterprise, AI writes English alt text for images that have none. You can edit any of it.

Automated fixes

Common issues, patched.

On Enterprise, the widget patches common markup issues in the browser, like buttons and form fields with no label.

FAQ

Questions about BigCommerce.

Something else? Ask support.

Do I have to edit my theme?

No. Script Manager adds the tag without touching your Stencil theme, so theme updates don't remove it. A custom theme only needs the {{footer.scripts}} tag that standard themes already include.

Script or URL type?

Script. BigCommerce adds its security nonce to Script-type scripts for you. A URL-type script needs an SRI hash, which would stop matching every time the widget updates.

Does it load on checkout?

With Location set to All pages, yes, on stores that use Optimized One-Page Checkout. Choose Storefront pages if you want to keep it off checkout.

Will it slow down my site?

The tag loads async, so your page renders without waiting for it. The widget button is fixed in a corner, so it doesn't shift your layout when it appears.

How do I remove it?

Delete the script in Script Manager. The widget is gone on the next page load.
