What is Accessible Colors?

Accessible Colors tests a text and background colour pair against WCAG 2.0 AA and AAA, then suggests the closest colours that pass for your font size and weight. It is a simple, free web tool, which makes it quick to fix brand colours without starting from scratch.

Pros: what Accessible Colors does well

  • Suggests passing colours for you
  • AA and AAA checks
  • Instant and free

Cons: where it falls short

  • Uses the older WCAG 2.0 contrast maths only
  • Very basic interface

Who Accessible Colors is for

Designers who need to adjust brand colours to meet accessibility standards.

Who can skip it

Teams who already use a design tool plugin for contrast checks.
