Testimonials

Loved by developers, designers, and site owners

Join thousands of teams making their images accessible.

We had 1,200 product images with zero alt text. AltText AI processed all of them in 20 minutes. Our Lighthouse accessibility score jumped from 62 to 94 overnight.

Sarah Chen

Ecommerce Director, ModeMaison

I build 30 client sites a year. AltText AI is the first plugin I install on every single one. It's saved me hundreds of hours of manual alt text writing.

Marcus Rivera

WordPress Developer, River Sites

The EAA deadline was terrifying until we found this. 50 free images a month means our small blog is compliant forever. The quality is indistinguishable from human-written alt text.

Elena Kowalski

Content Lead, EU Policy Watch

As a screen reader user, bad alt text is my biggest frustration online. AltText AI consistently generates descriptions that are actually useful — not just 'image' or 'picture'.

Devon Williams

Accessibility Advocate

Google Image Search traffic up 40% in two months. The alt text is genuinely good — descriptive, keyword-aware, and reads naturally. Better than what I was writing manually.

Priya Mehta

SEO Specialist, GrowthFunnel

The API is a joy to work with. Clean docs, fast responses, sensible error handling. We integrated it into our headless CMS in an afternoon.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about AltText AI.

Alt text (alternative text) is a written description of an image that screen readers use to describe images to visually impaired users. Search engines like Google also use alt text to understand and index images. Without it, your images are invisible to both accessibility tools and AI assistants like ChatGPT. Over 55% of websites are missing alt text on their images — and with the European Accessibility Act (EAA) now enforced, missing alt text can result in fines up to €1M.
50 images per month, every month, forever. No credit card required. This covers most small blogs and personal sites. If you need more, our Pro plan ($9/mo) includes 1,000 images/month, and our Agency plan ($49/mo) is unlimited.
Yes. Every alt text is generated to meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards. We follow the W3C guidelines for descriptive, concise, and meaningful alternative text. Our AI has been specifically trained on accessibility requirements, not just generic image captioning.
Three ways: 1) WordPress plugin — install from the plugin directory, paste your API key, done. 2) JavaScript widget — add one <script> tag to your site, all images automatically get alt text. 3) REST API — POST image URLs to our API endpoint, get alt text back in JSON. Full documentation at /docs.
Images are processed in-memory and never written to disk. We don't store your images, we don't train on your images, and we don't share your data with third parties. The image is discarded immediately after alt text is generated. Our infrastructure is GDPR compliant.
130+ languages. You can generate alt text in English, Spanish, German, French, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, and many more. The free tier supports English; Pro and above unlock all languages.
Yes. Our Agency plan ($49/mo) includes multi-site licensing for up to 10 sites, white-label API keys, and priority support. Perfect for agencies managing multiple client WordPress sites or headless CMS installations.
We offer a more generous free tier (50 images/month recurring vs. 25 one-time), lower pricing ($9/mo Pro vs. $12/mo), and self-hosted AI infrastructure that gives us better margins and faster processing. Most importantly, our model is specifically fine-tuned for alt text quality — not generic image captioning. You can compare the quality yourself with our free scanner — no signup needed.
