This service is delivered via a Cloudflare CDN. For technical reasons, the user’s IP address is used temporarily during the transmission process to deliver the overlay script, but no user-related or personally identifiable information is stored or processed by the plugin itself. The overlay merely enables accessibility features on the client side without altering the website’s source code.

Hürdenlos.Assist is an AI-based accessibility widget that enhances the usability of your website for individual users. Once embedded, it allows visitors to make user-specific accessibility adjustments in real time. These modifications are applied dynamically on the client side—your website’s source code remains unchanged. ### Is Hürdenlos.Assist compliant with accessibility standards like WCAG? The widget is based on the principles of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines( WCAG) and helps improve accessibility. However, like all tools of its kind, it cannot by itself ensure full legal compliance. Some accessibility issues must still be addressed manually. ### Do I need technical skills to use this plugin? No technical expertise is required! Once activated and the API key is entered, the widget operates automatically—no coding or manual adjustments needed. ### How do I get the API key? You can purchase the API key directly at [huerdenlos.eu/hurdenlosassist](https://huerdenlos.eu/hurdenlosassist/). ### What happens if I don’t enter an API key? Without a valid API key, the widget will not function. To activate it, enter your API key under “Settings > Hürdenlos.Assist” in your website’s dashboard. ### Does the widget support multiple languages? Yes, the **Hürdenlos.Assist** widget supports multiple languages, enhancing accessibility for a diverse audience. Users can select their preferred language directly from the widget’s interface. ### Will the changes made by the widget be saved for future visits? Yes, the accessibility adjustments made by the **Hürdenlos.Assist** widget are saved, ensuring a consistent and optimized experience for returning visitors. User preferences are also retained to maintain personalized accessibility settings. ### What happens if the widget cannot address all accessibility issues? While Hürdenlos.Assist covers many common accessibility barriers, complex or structural issues often require manual remediation. Our team offers professional audits and consulting services to help ensure comprehensive compliance and an inclusive digital experience. ### Does integrating the widget affect my website’s performance? The **Hürdenlos.Assist** widget is designed to have a minimal impact on your website’s performance. It operates efficiently to ensure that accessibility enhancements do not compromise loading times or overall site functionality. ### Is full compliance with WCAG guaranteed? While Hürdenlos.Assist significantly improves accessibility and helps meet WCAG guidelines, no widget on the market — ours included — can guarantee full legal compliance on its own. For complete accessibility, we recommend combining automated support with expert audits and manual adjustments.

Ein Profi-Tool, das auch sein Geld wert ist. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/8ee3fcc0183d3038686637aa79bde10f20ab0731d5da136d9fdf005fc5bdd7e1? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Top im vergleich zu anderen!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/top-im-vergleich-zu-anderen/)󠁿 [schmitti79](https://profiles.wordpress.org/schmitti79/) January 15, 2026 Hab mir echt viele Overlays angeguckt, weil uns Barrierefreiheit wichtig ist und wir das auf mehreren Seiten zeigen wollen. Hürdenlos.Assist ist aktuell das beste, was ich gefunden hab. Ist kein Ersatz für perfekten Barrierefrei-Code, klar, aber als solider Zusatz-Baustein top. Wir nutzen es jetzt auf mehreren unserer Seiten und sind richtig zufrieden. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0d7bcbf0e9f4d4486a31c1598a9d680ea64748ec3e5c952441e6353297de662d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Highly recommended if accessibility actually matters](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/highly-recommended-if-accessibility-actually-matters/)󠁿 [mkuefer](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mkuefer/) January 7, 2026 We are using Hürdenlos.Assist across multiple client websites and are genuinely very happy with it. The plugin is easy to integrate, runs reliably, and delivers real value right away, both for us as a service provider and for our clients. What really stands out is that you can tell the team behind Hürdenlos truly knows what they are doing. The solution is practical, well thought out, and not just “theoretically accessible”, but actually useful in day to day website operations. That is something many other tools are missing. Support is another big plus. Fast, professional, and solution focused. No ticket ping pong, just real help from people who deeply understand accessibility. A clear recommendation for agencies and anyone managing multiple websites. We use Hürdenlos.Assist long term and with full confidence. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4ed9e475870072182ccd06901337e827f63eb55b86175662f56408d537549c53? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Keine Testversion vorhanden – kostenpflichtig](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/keine-testversion-vorhanden-kostenpflichtig/)󠁿 [Paderman](https://profiles.wordpress.org/paderman/) January 2, 2026 Leider gibt es keine Möglichkeit, das Plugin überhaupt zu testen, von daher kann ich es nicht ausprobieren, wobei die Preise auf deren Website eher für mittel bis große Websites gedacht ist, die auch Geld einnehmen, um die Kosten des Plugins decken zu können. Für mich lohnt es sich nicht, da ich mit der Website kein Geld einnehme und nutze stattdessen ein anderes Plugin in der kostenlosen Variante. Damit das Plugin überhaupt verwendet werden könnte, muss unbedingt ein käufliches Abo abgeschlossen werden, ohne API-Schlüssel ist das Plugin nutzlos.
