Siteimprove Pricing: What Small Teams Pay
Siteimprove does not publish list prices. This guide uses dated Vendr ranges by page count and module, plus the extra costs to ask about.

Opening answer
Siteimprove does not publish a standard list price, so a small team cannot budget from a pricing page alone. Planning figures come from Vendr transaction data, which puts small organisation contracts at $15,000 to $40,000 a year for 1,000 to 5,000 pages with 1 to 2 modules. The Accessibility module alone for that page range is $12,000 to $30,000 a year, and adding SEO is $8,000 to $20,000 a year. Treat every figure as a range to test against a written quote.
Key figures at a glance
- Overall range in Vendr data: $15,000 to $150,000 or more a year.
- Small organisation, 1,000 to 5,000 pages, 1 to 2 modules: $15,000 to $40,000 a year.
- Mid sized organisation, 5,000 to 10,000 pages, 2 to 3 modules: $40,000 to $75,000 a year.
- Large enterprise, 10,000 to 25,000 or more pages, 3 or more modules: $75,000 to $150,000 or more a year.
- Accessibility alone, 1,000 to 5,000 pages: $12,000 to $30,000 a year.
- Accessibility alone, 10,000 to 25,000 pages: $35,000 to $70,000 a year.
- SEO added to Accessibility: $8,000 to $20,000 a year.
- Quality Assurance alone, 1,000 to 5,000 pages: $10,000 to $25,000 a year.

Why there is no list price
Siteimprove sells modules on a shared monitoring core. The Siteimprove help page describes the Content Suite across Quality Assurance, Accessibility, SEO, and Policy Compliance. Quality Assurance finds broken links, typos, and outdated content. SEO analyses metadata, structure, and crawlability. Accessibility checks for WCAG issues and usability issues. Policy flags content that breaks internal or legal guidelines. Analytics and Content appear as further modules on the Vendr page, with Analytics covering visitor tracking and Content covering readability and tone checks.
Because a buyer can license one module or a bundle, and because page count can run from 1,000 pages to 50,000 or more pages on the Vendr page, a single list price would hide the main cost drivers. Pricing is typically an annual subscription, with monthly or annual billing options, and published list pricing is rarely transparent. That pattern puts the burden on the buyer to ask for a written breakdown, module by module.
What drives the quote
Page count is the first driver. Tiers on the Vendr page run from 1,000 pages through 5,000, 10,000, and 25,000 or more pages, and moving up a tier can raise the annual cost sharply. Count live pages, not pages in a sitemap draft, and check whether staging pages, archive pages, or PDF pages count toward the tier. A site that grows from 900 pages to 1,100 pages during the term may cross a tier, so ask how overage is charged before signing.
Module choice is the second driver. Bundles typically give a 10 to 25 percent per module discount compared with buying each module apart, on the Vendr page. That discount is real, but it only saves money if the team opens each module in the bundle. A team that buys Accessibility plus SEO plus Quality Assurance, and opens only Accessibility, pays for two modules it never uses. Ask for the Accessibility alone figure first, then add modules one at a time, and record each addition in writing.
Term is the third driver. Multi year commitments of 2 to 3 years commonly give a 10 to 25 percent discount compared with annual terms, on the Vendr page. A multi year discount lowers the first year figure, but it also locks the team into a page tier and a module set for that term. A team that expects a redesign, a site merge, or a sharp page count change should weigh the discount against the cost of changing the contract mid term.
Extra costs to ask about
Onboarding and implementation fees on the Vendr page range from $2,000 to $10,000 or more, one time, depending on organisation complexity, module count, and custom work. Training and professional services are typically priced apart, and can add $5,000 to $20,000 or more. Page overage fees may apply if the contracted page tier is exceeded, often at a premium compared with a planned tier rise. Adding a module mid term typically triggers a pro rated fee for the rest of the term.
Renewal rises also matter. Contracts often include annual rises of 3 to 7 percent a year on the Vendr page. On a $20,000 a year contract, a 5 percent rise adds $1,000 a year in year two. Ask whether the rise can be capped, and what happens if the team wants to drop a module at renewal.
What a small team should expect in practice
A small team with 1,000 to 5,000 pages and 1 to 2 modules should expect a five figure annual contract, not a monthly tier price. The Vendr range for that shape is $15,000 to $40,000 a year. A team with Accessibility alone sits closer to $12,000 to $30,000 a year in the same data. A team with Accessibility plus SEO sits higher, because SEO adds $8,000 to $20,000 a year.
If the annual budget for accessibility work is under $2,500, a quote based platform in this range will not fit, and a fixed tier service is the honest next step. If the budget is $15,000 or more, and the team also needs SEO and content quality checks across many pages, a Siteimprove quote is worth testing, module by module.
A fixed tier comparison for context
For context only, Axeazy tiers sit far below the Siteimprove ranges in this article. Axeazy pricing is shown at checkout on the pricing page, with annual billing saving 20 to 25 percent. At the capabilities page monthly figures, Starter at $29 a month is $348 a year, Pro at $79 a month is $948 a year, and Agency at $199 a month is $2,388 a year at the monthly rate, or $1,799 a year on the annual Agency figure. Those tiers cover 1 site, 3 sites, and up to 10 sites in order, with page limits on the pricing page. The products do different jobs: Axeazy fixes code in 14 categories, while Siteimprove monitors content across four areas and reports issues for a team to resolve. Compare the job, not only the total, but do not ignore a gap of this size when the team only needs fixes.
How to handle a Siteimprove quote
Ask for the quote with module, page tier, annual total, billing cadence, onboarding fee, training included, renewal rise, overage rule, and mid term change cost. Ask for the Accessibility alone total before the bundle total, and for the date by which a module can be dropped without a fee. Keep the answers beside the Vendr ranges in this article.

FAQ
Does Siteimprove offer a free plan?
The sources checked for this article do not publish a free plan or a free trial length for Siteimprove, and this article does not state one. Ask the vendor in writing whether a trial, a demo, or a limited check is available, and what it covers, before budgeting around it.
Why do reported Siteimprove prices vary so widely?
Prices vary because page count, module count, term, and organisation size all change the quote. A single module program at 1,000 pages and a full suite program at 25,000 or more pages sit in different ranges, and the Vendr page gives $15,000 to $150,000 or more a year across all shapes. Always compare a quote with the same page count and module set as the range.
What is the cheapest realistic Siteimprove shape for a small team?
On Vendr data, the cheapest realistic shape is Accessibility alone, at 1,000 to 5,000 pages, at $12,000 to $30,000 a year. That figure is a reported range, not a vendor list price, and it excludes onboarding and training unless the quote states that they are included.
Should a small team sign a multi year Siteimprove term for the discount?
A multi year term commonly gives a 10 to 25 percent discount on the Vendr page, but it locks the page tier and module set. Sign a multi year term only if the page count, module list, and budget are stable for that term, and if the renewal rise and mid term change cost are capped in writing.
