Compare Isonomy vs EnableAll

Code-fix vs overlay for Shopify accessibility, compliance, and conversion.

Illustration comparing EnableAll with other accessibility tools

This page compares EnableAll and Isonomy head-to-head for Shopify merchants and ecommerce teams evaluating accessibility apps in 2026. Isonomy Web Accessibility (now listed on the Shopify App Store as “Ai Web Accessibility ADA WCAG” under the developer name “♿ isonomy ♿”) is a Shopify accessibility widget that launched in November 2024. As of May 2026 it holds a 4.9-star rating across 70 reviews and the Built for Shopify badge. The product is marketed as delivering “intelligent, code-level remediation” rather than overlay-style fixes — a positioning that puts it in direct comparison with EnableAll’s Code-Fix. EnableAll is a code-first accessibility platform built for Shopify and ecommerce, founded and developed by people with disabilities, with the Built for Shopify badge, an AAA-aligned Assist-Bar, in-house AI alt text that writes into the Shopify product CMS for SEO benefit, and Expert Services for manual auditing and litigation support.

Both products help merchants improve Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) alignment, and strengthen compliance with global laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the European Accessibility Act (EAA), the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). Both products are Shopify-native, both hold the Built for Shopify badge, and both make code-level claims. The differences come down to depth of feature set, verifiability of those claims, marketing posture, and the lived-experience and corporate-backing context behind each product.

TL;DR — EnableAll vs Isonomy in 60 seconds

Approach: EnableAll repairs accessibility barriers at the code level by injecting accessibility corrections on the front end of your Shopify store using Code-Fix — without changing your original theme files or CMS (content management system) content — with an optional Assist-Bar on top. Isonomy markets itself as “code-level remediation” rather than overlay, but the exact mechanism is not externally verifiable from the public app surface.

Shopify fit: Both products are native Shopify apps. Both hold the Built for Shopify badge.

Pricing differs significantly between Isonomy's two listings. At the time of writing, Isonomy publishes one set of tiers on the Shopify App Store (Starter $6.99/month, Growth $12.99/month, Max $18.99/month, billed by sessions) and a different set of tiers on its own website at isonomy.app (Starter $9/month, Growth $15/month, Max $29/month, billed by widget impressions). The website prices are 29–53% higher than the Shopify prices for the same plan names. The website Max tier also advertises a "white-label option" that does not appear on the Shopify listing. Merchants evaluating Isonomy for the long term should reconcile both listings, including how each metric will count their actual traffic, before committing.

AI alt text and SEO. Isonomy includes AI alt text generation but caps it by credit (50 / 300 / 1,000 / 5,000 per month across the tiers), and the SEO benefit is limited to the Growth plan and above. EnableAll’s AI Alt Text Engine is ecommerce-trained, included on every plan, and writes alt text into the Shopify product CMS — where search engines and AI models can read and credit the descriptions — supporting both accessibility and search engine optimization (SEO).

Feature breadth. EnableAll’s Assist-Bar offers 40+ features including AAA-aligned capabilities Isonomy does not list — sign language translation, simplified text, click on hover, declutter content, full-screen screen mask with color customization, image reader, video captions, and order confirmation review. Isonomy offers features EnableAll has not yet built — voice navigation, screen-zoom magnifier, page tooltips, text alignment controls, accessibility profiles, and customer-controlled widget side switching.

Marketing posture matters. Isonomy’s Shopify listing markets references “robust compliance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA, ADA, AODA, EAA and BFSG.” EnableAll’s transparent positioning explicitly avoids language that implies an app alone can guarantee total compliance — this matters because the United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has previously acted against accessibility-overlay vendors for overclaiming compliance benefits. We say what an automated tool can and cannot do.

Choose EnableAll if you want code-level repairs with public proof-of-implementation across customer stores, ecommerce-trained AI alt text written into your product CMS on every plan, a richer AAA-aligned Assist-Bar, in-house Expert Services, accessibility as the platform’s sole focus, and a vendor with disability lived experience at its founding.

Choose Isonomy if you specifically need voice navigation, a screen-zoom magnifier, page tooltips, text alignment controls, preset accessibility profiles, or customer-controlled widget side switching, and you are comfortable evaluating the code-level remediation claim against your own technical review.

What is Isonomy?

Company overview

Isonomy is a Shopify accessibility app developed by an entity branded on the Shopify App Store as “♿ isonomy ♿” (the wheelchair emoji is part of the developer brand name; the partner profile handle is zee-ideas1). The company is based in Charlotte, North Carolina, in the United States.

The app launched on November 26, 2024 and is now listed on the Shopify App Store as “Ai Web Accessibility ADA WCAG” under the Isonomy brand. As of May 2026, it holds a 4.9-star rating across 70 reviews and the Built for Shopify badge. The Built for Shopify badge is awarded to apps that meet Shopify’s highest standards for performance, design, and merchant integration — a significant credibility signal that distinguishes Isonomy from many newer accessibility widgets.

Technology approach

Isonomy’s Shopify listing markets the product as “intelligent, code-level remediation” that proactively fixes accessibility barriers at the source, rather than masking issues at an overlay layer. If accurate, this is a meaningful differentiator from the majority of accessibility widgets on the Shopify App Store, which are pure JavaScript overlays. Imogen’s review of the publicly visible product surface noted that the exact mechanism behind the claim is difficult to verify externally — Isonomy’s own corporate website (isonomy.app) does not appear to display the Isonomy widget on its own pages, and at the time of her review the demo store was not accessible. Both of those have changed since: a demo store is now available at isonomy-app-demo.myshopify.com.

Shopify presence and support model

Isonomy is available on the Shopify App Store at apps.shopify.com/isonomy-web-accessibility. Installation is native — through Shopify admin, with Shopify billing integration. Isonomy holds the Built for Shopify badge as of May 2026.

One notable observation from the Shopify App Store listing: Isonomy’s published Privacy Policy link, FAQ link, Tutorial link, and App Documentation link all redirect to the same Calendly booking URL (calendly.com/talk-to-specialist/30min). This means a merchant cannot self-serve documentation, troubleshoot independently, or read a tutorial without booking a 30-minute call with the Isonomy team. The privacy policy URL isonomy.app/privacy does resolve. EnableAll publishes accessible documentation, FAQs, customer help guides, and tutorials at standard URLs, with self-serve onboarding from the moment a merchant installs the free Starter plan.

Public customer feedback

The vast majority of Isonomy’s 70 reviews are 5-star and warmly praise specific support staff by name. A notable exception is a 1-star review published on March 14, 2026 by US merchant Healthy Homes Atlanta, titled “Why We Have Exiled the ‘Isonomy’ App.” The merchant cites concerns around pricing changes (“a recent buyout” they allege shifted the product from a free tool to paid, with what they describe as inflated user counts), documentation moving behind Calendly bookings, and a feature implementation issue with custom triggers. Isonomy responded on March 16, 2026 denying the buyout claim, defending the accuracy of their widget-user metrics, and offering to work through the technical issue. We reference this review honestly because it is the only publicly available critical signal at time of writing, and the vendor’s published response is part of the public record. Merchants evaluating Isonomy should read both the review and the response themselves before drawing a conclusion.

What is EnableAll?

Shopify-first accessibility platform

EnableAll is a code-first accessibility platform built for Shopify and ecommerce, currently Shopify-exclusive with other platforms in development. It holds the Built for Shopify badge (May 2026) and serves clients across the USA, UK, Europe, and Australia.

EnableAll’s Code-Fix operates at the code level by injecting accessibility corrections on the front end of your Shopify store — bridging accessibility gaps in image alt text behavior, ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications attributes that screen readers use to understand interactive elements), form labels, skip links, heading structure, keyboard navigation, and pop-up modals — without ever editing your original theme files or CMS content. The optional Assist-Bar adds 40+ customer-facing accessibility features. Auto-Audit (coming soon) will run continuous compliance scans automatically in the background on a merchant-controlled cadence. Expert Services delivers manual audits, VPATs (Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates), and litigation support for the compliance challenges automation cannot solve.

EnableAll’s website (enableall.com) implements the EnableAll Assist-Bar and Code-Fix on its own pages — visitors can experience the product on the vendor’s own surface before installing. Public-facing customer implementations are available across the customer base.

Built through lived experience

It was founded and built by people with disabilities — including disabled founder Mike Adams OBE — on the principle “Nothing about us without us,” with every feature tested by real assistive-technology users.

Proven results

EnableAll’s approach shows up in client results: up to a 46% increase in conversion rate, 6× higher conversion among Assist-Bar users than typical visitors, and a 98% reduction in accessibility barriers — with one enterprise retailer’s WAVE score rising from 6.2 to 9.8 within hours (see enableall.com/customers).

One EnableAll customer switched after struggling with other tools. “We’ve tried multiple accessibility apps over the years and ran into the same problems: unreliable code fixes, weak backend compliance, and toolbars that weren’t truly accessible. EnableAll solved all of that,” says Valentina Paci, VP Marketing & Creative at Sabatino. “Our in-house accessibility tester, a family member with a significant vision impairment, confirmed our site is now meaningfully more accessible than with any previous app.”

Corporate backing

EnableAll is a subsidiary of CareTech, a multinational care organization; it runs on Microsoft Azure with enterprise-grade security and is fully GDPR compliant, with offices in the UK, US, and Australia.

Pricing comparison

Isonomy pricing on Shopify

Source: apps.shopify.com/isonomy-web-accessibility, accessed May 2026. Isonomy prices in monthly session tiers (on a 12-month average for the free tier) with a 20% annual discount across all paid plans:

Free — Up to 1,000 sessions/month (12-month average). 30+ accessibility features, 50 AI alt-text image credits, accessibility statement and certification, live chat support.

Starter — $6.99/month (or $67.10/year, 20% off). Up to 5,000 sessions/month. 34+ features and accessibility profiles, 300 AI alt-text image credits, widget available in 22 languages, full widget customization.

Growth — $12.99/month (or $124.70/year, 20% off). Up to 50,000 sessions/month. 1,000 AI alt-text image credits, analytics dashboard, headless-mode support, custom trigger settings, and SEO-boosting AI alt text.

Max — $18.99/month (or $182.30/year, 20% off). Up to 100,000 sessions/month. 5,000 AI alt-text image credits, priority feature requests, dedicated account manager, custom feature development, and a free accessibility audit.

A notable detail: a public 1-star review from a US merchant alleges that Isonomy bills a “monthly fee plus nearly a dollar per user” and that their dashboard reported impossible widget-user counts (the merchant cited 700 widget users during periods where their entire site traffic was much lower). Isonomy’s response denies inflation and offers to walk merchants through how widget-user data is captured. We mention this so merchants can ask their own due-diligence questions before committing.

Isonomy pricing on isonomy.app

Source: isonomy.app/#pricing, accessed May 2026. Isonomy's own marketing website publishes a different set of tiers under the same plan names. The following prices are for monthly billing, there’s a 17% discount for annual billing.

Free — 1,000 widget impressions, 50 AI credits, basic accessibility widget, email support.

Starter — $9/month. 5,000 widget impressions, 300 AI credits, full widget customization.

Growth — $15/month (badged "Recommended"). 50,000 widget impressions, 1,000 AI credits, advanced customization.

Max — $29/month. 100,000 widget impressions, 5,000 AI credits, white-label option.

Isonomy's prices differ between Shopify and their own website

The two pricing listings present materially different terms for the same plan names. Both were verified live in May 2026.

Three things make this discrepancy hard for merchants to interpret. First, the headline price varies by which page you land on — Shopify is $6.99–$18.99/month; the website is $9–$29/month. Both pages were live on May 2026. Neither references the other or explains the gap. Second, the usage metric is different — Shopify charges by sessions on a 12-month average; the website charges by widget impressions (typically each time the toolbar renders on a page load). A merchant whose store generates 5,000 sessions might trigger many more (or fewer) widget impressions depending on configuration. The two metrics are not interchangeable, which makes it hard to evaluate whether the website tier or the Shopify tier is the better economic fit. Third, the website Max tier advertises a "white-label option" that does not appear in the Shopify Max tier feature list — whether this is a Shopify feature that is not advertised, a feature reserved for non-Shopify customers, or an enterprise feature behind a sales call is not publicly disclosed.

The website also does not display an annual billing option, while Shopify offers a 20% annual discount. Merchants installing via the Shopify App Store will be billed through Shopify's billing at the Shopify price. Merchants who sign up directly through isonomy.app appear to pay the higher website price. We recommend clarifying with Isonomy which listing applies to your installation before committing — and asking about the white-label option if that is of interest, since it is not visible on the Shopify listing.

This pattern is worth knowing about because it makes the Isonomy product harder to compare like-for-like with platforms like EnableAll that publish one consistent price across the marketing website and the Shopify listing.

EnableAll pricing

Source: enableall.com/pricing, accessed May 2026.

Starter (free). Up to 1,000 sessions/month. All 40+ Assist-Bar features, Code-Fix, AI alt text, 133 languages, accessibility statement and certificate.

Growth — $49/month. Up to 25,000 sessions/month. Includes Starter plus SEO-boosting AI alt text written directly to your CMS and usage dashboards.

Scale — $149/month. Up to 100,000 sessions/month. Includes Growth plus manual accessibility testing and report, priority support, and a dedicated case manager.

Advanced — $399/month. Up to 300,000 sessions/month. Includes Scale plus manual testing, report, and fixes.

Enterprise — pricing available for stores beyond 300,000 sessions/month.

What the pricing difference reflects

Isonomy is priced as one of the most affordable accessibility apps with a Built for Shopify badge — $6.99–$18.99/month. For merchants who want an inexpensive widget with a Shopify-quality install experience, it is competitively priced. The credit-based AI alt text model (50–5,000 images/month depending on tier) is a relevant constraint for stores with large or rapidly changing catalogs: once credits run out, alt text generation stops until the next billing cycle.

EnableAll’s pricing reflects a meaningfully broader product. Code-Fix delivers code-level accessibility repairs that assistive technologies and search engines recognize, with public customer implementations available as proof. The Assist-Bar offers 40+ features built and tested by people with disabilities, including AAA-aligned capabilities Isonomy does not list. EnableAll’s AI Alt Text Engine writes product-aware alt text into your Shopify product CMS for SEO benefit, with no monthly credit cap — relevant for ecommerce stores adding products continuously. Expert Services on Scale, Advanced, and Enterprise tiers delivers manual audits, VPATs, and litigation support that no overlay-only tool offers. The free Starter plan still includes every accessibility feature.

EnableAll plans are based on your 12-month average sessions, with a clear dashboard showing exactly where you stand. Seasonal spikes, promotional campaigns, and holiday peaks will never trigger an unexpected upgrade.

Feature comparison

[ Table — to be added here via the table module. ]

Note: “Not offered” and “Not listed” means the capability does not appear in Isonomy’s public Shopify App Store feature documentation as of May 2026. Isonomy may offer features not reflected in public documentation. If you believe any information on this page is inaccurate or out of date, please contact [email protected] and we will review.

Where EnableAll’s design and user interface go further

A few areas where the user experience of using each product differs in ways that matter for accessibility:

Languages. EnableAll offers 133 languages with a search function and includes the standardized language code. Isonomy’s widget is available in 22 languages, and Imogen’s review noted that flag icons are used next to language names — which is not the recommended approach (a flag represents a country, not a language; multiple countries can share a language and one country can host many).

Cursor. Isonomy offers a single cursor option in the widget. EnableAll allows full color customization from presets or a full-spectrum picker, and maintains expected cursor behavior (changing to a hand when hovering over a clickable element).

Dark mode and color inversion. Isonomy’s color inversion includes product images, which renders product photography as visually unreadable photographic negatives. EnableAll’s color-inversion logic excludes product imagery.

Custom site colors. Like several other widgets in this category, Isonomy lets a visitor change site colors from a fixed palette (dark green, red, blue, orange, purple, black, or white). Many of the resulting combinations fall below WCAG contrast thresholds — a visitor can pick blue text on a blue background, red text on a purple background, or the same color text as the background. EnableAll’s intelligent color contrast algorithm constrains visitors to dyslexia-friendly palette combinations only and surfaces a live contrast indicator, often allowing only AAA-grade combinations.

Reading guide and reading ruler. Isonomy’s reading guide is a translucent layer with a styled window (green and yellow lines top and bottom); the reading ruler is a single short line attached to the cursor with a black outline and yellow infill. EnableAll’s reading guide lets the visitor add a translucent colored highlight layer to support contrast sensitivities and dyslexia. EnableAll’s reading ruler lets the visitor customize fill color, outline color, opacity, length, and height. With Isonomy, the ruler and the reading guide live under the same button so they cannot be used at the same time.

Text-to-speech controls. Isonomy offers human-sounding text-to-speech, with slow / medium / fast speed controls. EnableAll’s text-to-speech also uses a human-sounding voice and adds pause / play / forward / rewind controls and continuous reading.

Stop animations. EnableAll’s implementation covers more file types (including PNGs, emojis, pop-ups that move, and carousels) and is built specifically to avoid breaking site navigation that relies on jQuery, so visitors can still complete a purchase. Important for customers with epilepsy, autism, attention difficulties, and ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder).

Honest WCAG compliance positioning

This section is included as a credibility note for merchants evaluating accessibility tools generally, not as a criticism of Isonomy specifically.

Several phrases that appear on Isonomy’s Shopify App Store listing — “Instantly make your web Accessibility & ADA, WCAG 2.1, s508 compliance” (in one of the listing’s screenshot alt text fields) and “ensuring robust compliance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA, ADA, AODA, EAA and BFSG” (in the listing description) — are similar in style to language the United States Federal Trade Commission has acted against in other accessibility-tool vendors. The FTC has emphasized that no widget alone can guarantee WCAG compliance or instant accessibility, and that overclaiming compliance benefits can expose merchants to consumer-protection risk.

EnableAll’s position is deliberately the opposite: no automation alone can deliver complete WCAG compliance. Real compliance requires structural code repair (Code-Fix), customer-facing accessibility controls (Assist-Bar), continuous monitoring (Auto-Audit, coming soon), and manual expert testing (Expert Services). We say what an automated tool can and cannot do.

This matters because merchants who later face an ADA-related lawsuit must be able to demonstrate good-faith compliance efforts. A vendor that overclaimed at sale time is not a credible witness in that defense.

Features Isonomy offers that EnableAll does not

A handful of capabilities are on Isonomy but not yet on EnableAll. We list them honestly because some merchants will value them:

Voice navigation — Isonomy offers voice-command navigation. EnableAll is still reviewing voice dictation; it is not currently a Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Level AA requirement.

Screen-zoom / page magnifier — Isonomy offers page magnification. EnableAll offers font scaling and content scaling but not yet a screen-zoom magnifier.

Tooltips exposing ARIA attribute labels — hovering over an element shows its ARIA tag. EnableAll’s accessibility experts deemed this not user-friendly because non-technical visitors are unlikely to interpret raw ARIA labels.

Text alignment controls (left, center, right) — EnableAll’s accessibility experts deemed these not needed for compliance, though we are still reviewing.

Customer-controlled widget side — visitors can move the widget from one side of the screen to the other.

Preset accessibility profiles — see canonical section below.

Why EnableAll does not offer accessibility profiles

Many accessibility tools — including Isonomy, accessiBe, UserWay, EqualWeb, AudioEye, and several others — offer preset disability profiles such as “Vision Impaired,” “Dyslexia,” or “Seizure Safe.” A visitor selects a profile, and the tool turns on a configuration of features designed for that group. After consulting with disability experts, EnableAll made a deliberate decision not to follow this approach.

The reality is that disabilities, neurodiversities, and the ways they overlap are too varied for any preset profile to serve a person’s actual needs accurately. A profile built for “dyslexia” may not reflect how any individual with dyslexia actually experiences a page. Worse, profiles can give visitors a false sense that their needs have been met when they have not.

Instead, EnableAll gives every customer individual control over every feature — allowing them to build an experience that genuinely matches their needs, rather than approximating them. EnableAll is also developing the ability for customers to filter features by the type of support they are looking for (reading support, motor support, visual support, sensory support), making it easier to discover relevant features without prescribing a one-size-fits-all experience.

We believe this is the more thoughtful, more inclusive, and more honest approach to accessibility — and it reflects EnableAll’s founding principle of “Nothing about us without us.”

Why EnableAll: the 10-pillar case

Ecommerce focus — AI built to drive conversion, not just compliance.

Code-fix accessibility — front-end injection bridges accessibility gaps at the code level without altering your theme files or CMS content. Publicly verifiable on customer stores.

Optional Assist-Bar — 40+ features enhance the shopping experience for every customer, free on every plan.

Advanced AAA feature set — sign language translation, simplified text, declutter content, full-screen screen mask, image reader, video captions, order confirmation review.

Genuine accessibility — designed and tested by people with disabilities. “Nothing about us without us.”

Premium design — keeps your brand front and center, with intelligent color contrast guardrails.

Fair, transparent pricing — no penalties for seasonal traffic, every accessibility feature included on every plan, free Starter tier.

Honest WCAG compliance — no false promises, just a clear and transparent approach.

Enterprise-grade architecture — secure, fast, scalable, Microsoft Azure infrastructure with autoscaling.

Corporate backing — part of the CareTech Group, a multinational care and support organization not dependent on monthly cashflow.

What this means for your business: stronger compliance, win more customers, faster site speed, better SEO, less development work.

How to switch from Isonomy to EnableAll (3 steps)
