#### What is Silktide?

Silktide is a SaaS platform that helps organizations understand and improve their
websites.

Silktide eliminates the need for multiple quality checking tools, like free accessibility
toolbars
 or spell checkers, and creates a better workflow and experience for web
teams in large organizations.

Silktide scans your websites and alerts you to issues with web accessibility, content
quality, user
 experience, marketing and SEO, and data privacy.

We’ll show you where the issues occur right on your page and suggest ways for you
to fix them, all
 in one simple to use yet powerful platform.

This plugin allows Silktide customers to link their WordPress-based websites and
speeds up the process
 of fixing issues we find.

With one click, you can get straight to the correct page in WordPress, make your
fixes, and Silktide
 immediately rescans your website.

Our clients include web and communications teams in Governments, Higher Education,
Financial Institutions,
 Healthcare, and Web agencies.

## FAQ

### Is Silktide an accessibility overlay?

No. Overlays (tools that suggest you can create an accessible website in one or 
two lines of code) are
 incapable of giving you an accessible website. They leave
you open to litigation and make for a much poorer experience for people with disabilities.

The only way to create an accessible website is to fix the underlying code. Silktide
identifies many
 accessibility issues in your code, shows you where they are on 
each page, and explains in simple terms how to fix them.

### How much does Silktide cost?

[Request a demo](https://silktide.com/request-a-demo/) of Silktide, and we’ll prepare
a custom quote
 for your organization.

### Do I need to install any software to use Silktide?

No. Silktide can scan all public websites without requiring you to install anything.
This plugin in WordPress
 is separate from the Silktide engine and simply allows
you to navigate from Silktide to the exact page in WordPress that requires an issue
to be fixed.

### Can I use this plugin without being a Silktide customer?

No, this plugin is designed specifically for Silktide customers whose websites are
created in WordPress.
