# Sitejar

> Sitejar is a website compliance scanner that checks accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA), security, privacy, deceptive design, technical quality and SEO in one crawl, and proposes source-level fixes instead of overlays. It offers a free scan with no signup, free browser tools, a REST API and a remote MCP server so AI coding agents can scan a page and apply fixes.

Notes for agents: public marketing, blog, guide and research pages are server-rendered or prerendered HTML. The authenticated app (/app) and the API (/v1/) are not meant for crawling. The MCP endpoint requires OAuth 2.1 with PKCE; the sign-in happens on sitejar.app. Prices and plan limits are deliberately not repeated in this file: read them from https://sitejar.app/pricing, which is generated from the live plan catalogue.
