InterA11y uses checklist-guided LLMs and browser tools to audit 10 selected WCAG criteria. On 197 expert-annotated elements from offline replications of 54 webpages, it achieved mean recall of 79.0%, versus 44.4% for the highest-recall evaluated LLM-checker baseline, and mean precision of 93.1%. These results support element-level auditing, not whole-site conformance or replacement of expert review.
