The problem it solves

Your image library is full of missing alt text, which hurts accessibility and search visibility, but writing descriptions for every image by hand is tedious and easy to put off. You know it matters for compliance and SEO, but it never rises to the top of the to-do list.

Who it fits

WordPress site owners and content managers who need accessible, SEO-friendly images without manual work.

How it works

  1. You list your image URLs and WordPress media IDs in a Google Sheet
  2. The system logs into WordPress and reads each image
  3. AI reviews each image and writes a short, accessible description
  4. The description is saved back to the sheet and applied to the WordPress media file
What you get

Images that finally have alt text

Your images get clear, accessible descriptions that help visitors and search engines understand your content.

What you get

Every listed image gets an accurate alt text description, recorded in your sheet and live on your site.

What you need

A WordPress site with Application Passwords enabled, a Google account, and an Anthropic API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
