Pros and cons
What Stark does especially well — and the limits to anticipate.
Pros
- Robust free plan to check contrast ratios.
- Color blindness simulator very useful.
- Automated WCAG reports (Pro).
- Complete a11y checklist.
- Direct Figma integration.
Cons
- Advanced features (focus, alt text) are paid.
- Pro pricing can be steep for solo designers.
- Not a substitute for real user testing.
Stark: when it makes sense.
Stark wins for embedding accessibility into Figma design. For full post-launch audits, pair with user testing.
Keep if
You design interfaces and must meet WCAG standards.. You work in Figma.
- You use it at least once a week
- The monthly cost (€6) is small next to the time it saves you
Challenge if
You have no legal accessibility requirements.. You're looking for a full accessibility audit post-project.
- You use it less than once a month
- A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
