After discovery you choose which of the pages it found should be scanned. This is the step that most decides whether your results are useful, and it is worth two minutes of thought.
How many you can choose
| Plan | Pages per scan |
|---|---|
| Free | 10 |
| Starter | 30 |
| Professional | 150 |
| Enterprise | Unlimited |
The portal shows how many you have selected against your limit as you go.

Why there is a limit at all
The limit keeps each scan to a set of pages you can realistically act on, and to a set a specialist can review thoroughly if you request an Expert Manual Review. Ten well chosen pages tell you more than a thousand pages nobody reads.
How to choose well
The goal is coverage of your templates, not coverage of your content. Most accessibility problems live in a template and therefore repeat on every page using it. Finding the problem once tells you about all of them.
A good selection usually includes:
- Your home page.
- The main landing page for each top level section of your navigation.
- One example of each repeating template: one product page, one article, one listing page, one search results page.
- Every page with a form: contact, sign up, checkout, booking. Forms are where accessibility problems hurt people most directly.
- Anything with an interactive component: a slider, a map, a video player, a date picker, a cookie banner.
- Your most visited pages, if you know them from your analytics.
What not to do
Do not fill your selection with ten blog posts that all use the same template. You will get the same handful of issues repeated ten times and learn nothing about the rest of your site.
Do not skip forms because they feel like edge cases. They are the opposite of edge cases.
Once you have chosen
The list of pages in a scan is fixed once it starts, so it is worth a last look before you begin. If you want to scan a different set, run another scan with a different selection.
