AI Search Is Routing Users to the Least Accessible Pages on the Web, AudioEye's 2026 Digital Accessibility Index Finds

About this update from Audioeye, Inc.

Analysis of over 165,000 U.S. and EU pages reveals product and conversion pages are driving litigation risk, as two-thirds of traffic now routes to interior pages TUCSON, Ariz., June 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AudioEye, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEYE) ("AudioEye" or the "Company") , an industry-leading digital accessibility company, today released the third annual 2026 Digital Accessibility Index (DAI). The report scanned over 165,000 pages across 6,100 domains in the U.S. and Europe, revealing where accessibility risk is concentrating, what is driving enforcement actions, and why most programs are falling behind. The findings reveal a consistent gap between where accessibility programs focus and where risk actually lives. Most organizations start on the homepage and treat interior pages as lower priority. However, these deeper pages average more issues (+10%), appear in approximately 60% of accessibility claims filed in 2025 , and are now receiving more direct traffic as AI search routes users past the homepage. "Organizations are facing a perfect storm of compliance risk," said Kelly Georgevich, CEO of AudioEye. "Litigation is accelerating, the EAA is enforceable, and AI is sending users to pages most accessibility programs haven't prioritized. At the same time, AI is building the web faster than accessibility programs can keep up and using models trained on an internet that is largely inaccessible. The 2026 DAI findings show the risk is real, measurable, and growing faster than most programs are moving." 2026 DAI Key Findings
