<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.anthropic.com/pricing" rel="nofollow ugc">Anthropic Claude pricing</a></li>
<li><a href="https://openai.com/api/pricing/" rel="nofollow ugc">OpenAI pricing</a></li>

<h4>ImageCraft vs Other Plugins</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>vs subscription plugins</strong> — No monthly fees. Pay per use at direct API rates with zero markup.</li>
<li><strong>vs single-provider plugins</strong> — 3 providers, 15+ models. Switch anytime without losing data or reconfiguring.</li>
<li><strong>vs alt-text-only plugins</strong> — ImageCraft also renames files for SEO, runs an SEO audit, and integrates with your SEO plugin’s focus keyphrase.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy & Security</h4>
<ul>
<li>API keys encrypted with AES-256-CBC using WordPress salts (or stored in wp-config.php for file-based security)</li>
<li>Images sent only to your chosen AI provider when you trigger generation</li>
<li>SSRF protection on image URL fetching</li>
<li>No data routed through third-party proxy services</li>
</ul>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to third-party AI services to generate alt text for your images. No data is sent automatically — requests are only made when you explicitly trigger alt text generation (manually, via batch processing, or if you enable auto-generate on upload).</p>
<p><strong>Data sent:</strong> When alt text generation is triggered, the plugin sends the image (base64-encoded) along with a text prompt to your chosen AI provider. No personal user data is sent. Your API key is included in the request header for authentication.</p>
