What Lumtera Pro adds
Lumtera Pro is an add-on for the free Lumtera plugin. Everything in the free plugin stays free, with no page limits. That includes review mode's whole-page checks and the Content report's Export CSV. Pro adds tools for keeping a site accessible over time, and for reporting on it to clients.
Features
Checking
| Feature | What it does | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Page checks | Checks whole live pages (theme, menus, footer, checkout) with your theme's real CSS, at desktop and phone width. It runs the same engine as review mode, plus hover, focus and pressed-state contrast and a check for carousels that move on their own. Scheduled checks re-check your key pages daily or weekly as a logged-out visitor. | Every plan |
| Rendered checks | Finishes scheduled checks in a real browser you control: an admin session in the background, a button, WP-CLI or a scheduled job. No cloud service. | Every plan |
| AI rules | Optional, with your own AI provider, one page at a time: are titles and headings descriptive, and does alt text match its image? Each answer is a Needs review note. | Growth and up |
| Form tests | Submits a form empty in a hidden frame, safely, and checks how its errors are shown and announced. Works with Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, the WooCommerce classic checkout and plain HTML forms. | Every plan |
| Signed-in checks | Checks My account, cart, checkout and members' pages as a test user with the role you choose. | Every plan: 1 role on Personal and Growth, any number on Agency and Unlimited |
| Consistency across pages | Compares the pages checked for menu order, link names, where help is, and a search box or site map. | Growth and up |
| PDF checks | Checks the PDFs in your Media Library for tags, a title, a language, real text, bookmarks and restrictive security settings. | Every plan |
| Test sessions | Records a person's tests of each template, with the assistive technology and browser used, and a sign-off. | Every plan |
| Ignore everywhere | Hides a finding that repeats on every page, such as a theme footer, with a reason, an optional expiry and a log. | Every plan |
Fixing
| Feature | What it does | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Fixes queue | Proposes fixes for many pages at once, or once at the source for a header, footer, pattern or menu. You review each change, then apply it in the background. Every fix can be undone. | Every plan |
| Approval rule | Requires a second person to approve each fix in the fixes queue. | Agency and up |
| Fix tracking | Assign issues to people. A re-scan confirms each fix and closes the task. Send fixes to GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Linear, Asana, ClickUp or Trello, and optionally close the issue when a re-scan confirms the fix. | Every plan |
| Monitoring & alerts | Email and Slack alerts when a publish adds new errors, a weekly digest email, and score history on the Overview. | Every plan |
Reporting and records
| Feature | What it does | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Client reports | Branded, printable reports with all 55 WCAG 2.2 A and AA criteria. | Every plan |
| White-label reports | Hides the Lumtera credit on client reports and conformance reports. | Growth and up |
| Client emails and share links | Email reports to clients on a schedule, and share a report with a private link. See Client reports and Client portfolio. | Growth and up |
| Conformance report (ACR) | A draft Accessibility Conformance Report in the VPAT 2.5 layout, in WCAG 2.2, Revised Section 508 and EN 301 549 editions, filled in from your automated and manual results, for you to review. | Every plan |
| Evidence log | A tamper-evident timeline of scans, tests, fixes, feedback and statement changes, with an evidence pack to print or export. Not legal advice. | Every plan |
| Compare scans | Shows what is new, fixed and still there between two scans, by check and by site part. | Every plan |
| Feedback response targets | Your own reply goals for visitor feedback, with an Overdue view. | Every plan |
| Burden records | Records of disproportionate burden decisions, with a public summary for your statement. Not legal advice. | Every plan |
| Activity log & webhooks | Who changed what, and when. Send events to Slack, Microsoft Teams or your own tools. | Every plan |
| Client portfolio | Your client sites on one screen, connected straight from their WordPress. | Growth and up |
| Multisite network | One license for a whole network, every site on one Network Admin screen, and settings sync from one site to others. | Agency and up |
| Client access | A read-only Accessibility client role, and a Manage client reports permission for who can create, delete and share reports. | Every plan |
Every plan also includes abilities for AI assistants (list proposals, apply approved changes, revert a change, create a task, compare scans, evidence summary), automatic updates with a changelog in View details, and renewal reminders. See License & plans and Abilities.

Where Pro appears in WordPress
The Lumtera menu has one item per group. Each group's screens show as sub-tabs at the top of the page. With Pro active, the groups are:
| Group | Pro screens in it | Who can open them |
|---|---|---|
| Checks | Page checks, Documents, Test sessions and Compare scans (next to the free Content report) | Page checks, Documents and Test sessions: roles with the See reports and check the site permission (editors and administrators by default). Compare scans: administrators |
| Fixes | Fixes queue and Fix tracking, in the order Fixes queue, free Alt text, Fix tracking | Fix tracking: anyone who can edit posts. Authors and contributors see it as My fixes. Fixes queue: roles that can propose or approve fixes (see Fixes queue) |
| Reports | Reports, Evidence, Activity. The conformance report (ACR) opens from Reports. | Reports and the ACR: the See reports and check the site permission; creating, deleting and sharing reports and editing the ACR also need Manage client reports (administrators by default). Evidence and Activity: administrators |
| Feedback & statement | Burden records (next to the free Feedback and Statement) | Editors and administrators |
| Portfolio | Client portfolio | Administrators |
The permission is set under Lumtera → Settings → Permissions. See Permissions.
Pro also adds these sections to Lumtera → Settings, for administrators. The settings index groups them with the free plugin's sections, and Find a setting searches them all.
| Settings group | Pro sections |
|---|---|
| Checking | Ignore rules: see Ignore everywhere |
| Fixing | Fix approvals: see Fixes queue. Issue trackers: see Fix tracking |
| Feedback and notifications | Response targets: see Feedback response targets. Alerts: see Monitoring & alerts. Integrations: see Activity log & webhooks |
| People and branding | Branding: see Client reports. With Pro, the free People group is renamed People and branding. |
| Lumtera Pro | License: see License & plans. Until a key is active, this group is listed first. |
Once Pro is installed:
- the free plugin's Upgrade to Pro screen, upgrade buttons and Pro tips are hidden.
- after you activate a license, a first-run checklist for your plan appears on the Overview and the License screen, in place of the free plugin's getting-started checklist.
- while the license is active, Pro's weekly digest replaces the free plugin's weekly email summary. Its settings are kept. If Pro is installed but its license isn't active, the free summary is still sent.
Without Pro, five Pro screens appear as previews marked Pro: Page checks (under Checks), Fixes queue (under Fixes, after Alt text), Reports and Evidence (under Reports) and Portfolio. Each one describes what the feature does, without prices. The other Pro screens aren't listed until Pro is installed.
