Accessibility Overlay
Overlay (accessibility overlay)
An overlay is a JavaScript widget that adds a settings panel on top of a site (fonts, contrast, cursor). It does not modify the actual HTML code. The National Federation of the Blind and 700+ specialists (overlayfactsheet.com) state that overlays do not provide real WCAG compliance. The FTC fined AccessiBe $1M in 2025.
