What a VPAT actually costs in 2026.
Procurement put “provide your VPAT/ACR” on the checklist. The document is a self-declaration. The cost is the testing behind it. Template-only and purely automated reports are the ones reviewers bounce — ADA Compliance Pros and 508blueprint both say so on their own sites. Make the DIY vs specialist vs firm decision against named prices, not a sales call.
The ladder, with names
| Who | Price | What you actually buy |
|---|---|---|
| 508blueprint DIY workbook | $79 | You fill the ACR yourself. Fine if you will do the manual testing. Not a third-party report. |
| Accessible.org | $350–$950 doc + $1,250–$2,750 audit | Itemized. They say the audit is the great majority of the total. |
| Corpus AI VPAT Sprint | $1,995 | One product, ≤12 unique screens, WCAG 2.2 + Section 508. Hybrid audit with named-human keyboard and screen-reader testing. 5 business days. You sign the ACR. |
| TestPros and specialist firms | $3,000–$10,000 | Broader scope, more editions, longer calendar. |
| Enterprise accessibility firms | $30,000–$60,000 | Multi-product, EN 301 549 / INT, legal-adjacent opinions. |
Re-issue on a new product version is $795. Extra edition (EN 301 549 or INT) $495. The $1,995 price assumes a confirmed screen list and working staging access. B2B buyers who need a PO: email intake, we invoice in Stripe.
Why the $79 option fails procurement
An ACR with “Supports” on every criterion and no test artifacts is the document reviewers send back. ADA Compliance Pros: even a minor inaccuracy can cost the contract. We do not mark Supports without a finding attached. That rule is never waived — it is the only reason a $1,995 sprint is not a template mill.
When $1,995 is the wrong buy
More than 12 unique screens, a need for a legal defensibility opinion, or a buyer who requires a specific lab. We will say no rather than inflate the ACR. We are not a certification body. We do not guarantee the agency accepts the bid.
