ADA Title II Deadline: April 24, 2026
State and local government websites must meet WCAG 2.1 AA. Raven Tools does not audit accessibility. PageGuard monitors performance AND accessibility compliance continuously — alerting you before violations occur.

It is not a replacement for Raven Tools’ white-label reporting, rank tracking, or social media aggregation. Use PageGuard if website health and compliance monitoring are the priority.
No. Raven Tools focuses on SEO reporting: rank tracking, backlink analysis, site auditing, and white-label client reports. It does not audit WCAG accessibility compliance.

Yes, they complement each other well. Use Raven Tools for comprehensive SEO reporting, rank tracking, and white-label client dashboards.
