# Equalify Pro | ||
# Equalify the web! | ||
|
||
Open Source projects like Equalify need a revenue stream to keep their work alive. | ||
**96.8% of homepages have WCAG conformance failures,** according to [WebAIM](https://webaim.org/projects/million/). | ||
|
||
So, if we're going to make Web Accessibility better, we gotta make some dough! | ||
The internet must become more accessible! | ||
|
||

||
## Other Notes | ||
## How will Equalify increase content accessibility? | ||
|
||
Making money can cloud purpose. | ||
Equalify aims to: | ||
1. **Promote transparency** with a Open Source A11Y platform (✅ Done!). | ||
2. **Reduce the cost** of multi-page website scans (ongoing). | ||
3. **Improve automation** to simplify WCAG issue resolution (2023). | ||
|
||
The purpose of Equalify, and my life, is to do ethical good. | ||
We will tackle these goals by integrating with existing web services, making Equalify your WebOps hub. | ||
|
||
Here's a basic comparison of Open Source vs. Proprietary projects from [An Open Source Survey](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/265411256_Open_Source_Software_A_Survey_from_10000_Feet): | ||

## What does Equalify currently do? | ||
|
||
It should go without saying that the values of Open Source projects are more ethical than the values of proprietary projects. | ||
The app currently scans websites for WCAG errors. | ||
|
||
If the Pro plan is indeed designed to sustain Equalify, we must focus on that goal (and temper our desires with [basic income nest eggs](https://bbertucc.notion.site/Basic-Income-Nest-Eggs-4b555b09d02d40389086c01ec84c1424)). | ||
You can import pages from WordPress, XML sitemaps, and single URLs. Equalify then crawls all your pages for WCAG 2.1 errors using the popular [WAVE scan](https://wave.webaim.org/). | ||
|
||
Onward and upward! | ||
Every alert is reported on a filterable dashboard. | ||
|
||
