Generate a VPAT

A VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) is the document procurement teams demand. Wholisphere auto-generates a VPAT 2.5 INT from your accessibility findings.

From the dashboard

1. Open app.wholisphere.ai → Compliance
2. Fill in product name, version, contact
3. Click Generate VPAT (markdown) → downloads <product>-vpat-<version>.md

What’s covered

• WCAG 2.2 Level A + AA (54 criteria) by default
• WCAG 2.2 Level AAA (additional 28 criteria) when standards includes "WCAG 2.2 Level AAA"
• Maps cleanly onto EN 301 549 (EU) and Section 508 (US federal)

Output format

VPAT 2.5 INT (Information and Communication Technology Industry Council). Markdown rather than DOCX so you can:

• Pipe to PDF via any markdown→PDF tool
• Embed in an HTML page
• Diff between releases to track regressions
• Commit as a release artifact

Conformance levels

For each criterion, Wholisphere assigns one of:

• Supports — full conformance
• Partially Supports — most aspects conform; some gaps
• Does Not Support — does not conform
• Not Applicable — criterion does not apply
• Not Evaluated — for AAA only when not assessed

Criteria not in your findings array are marked Not Evaluated automatically.
