YesPartly, with the condition in the notesNot offered

SiteOS is free, with monthly credits for research and checks. Siteimprove prices packages after a demo. A public Texas DIR contract lists its Complete package for 1,000 pages at $7,100 and Analytics for 3 million yearly pageviews at $6,100; the sheet does not state the term.

Audits of large websites: Siteimprove's crawler follows every link on a site, up to the page limit in your contract.

AI answer visibility: Siteimprove names ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Gemini; SiteOS checks ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity.

Automated accessibility checks: Every SiteOS Site Audit checks each audited page against WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules with axe-core and lists violations by element; Siteimprove also audits PDFs and apps and offers manual testing.

PDF and manual accessibility testing: Siteimprove checks PDFs against WCAG 2 and PDF/UA, and its experts offer manual accessibility testing to U.S. customers.

Web analytics: Siteimprove Analytics is a separate package priced by yearly pageviews.

Cookie consent banner: Siteimprove scans for cookies; its former banner is no longer offered.

Site search: Siteimprove reports on searches in your existing search box.

Browser checks on key journeys: Siteimprove recrawls sites at least seven days apart and scores page speed daily; scripted journeys are not described.

Tracking checks for GA4, GTM and consent: Siteimprove policies flag pages missing an analytics script; they do not check that events fire.

MCP for coding agents: Siteimprove's MCP server provides accessibility scans and fix suggestions.

SAML single sign-on: Siteimprove supports single sign-on with SAML 2.0.

Free plan: Siteimprove offers free single-page checks, but no free plan.

Organizations that need Siteimprove's accessibility governance can still use SiteOS where it is stronger: a consent banner, forms, site search, browser checks on key journeys and tracking checks, with free access for smaller teams and websites.
