Missing or weak alt text on images hurts both SEO and accessibility. Flux AI Alt Text & Accessibility Audit helps you find and fix those gaps across your entire media library with an on-demand Compliance Audit Dashboard and AI-generated alt text.
<h4>NEW – Compliance Dashboard</h4>
Scan your entire media library on demand. The Compliance Dashboard shows a coverage score and categorizes images by risk: missing alt text, placeholder or generic text, duplicates, and descriptive or contextual alt. Filter by category and fix issues in bulk. Run a full scan to see which images need attention, which are marked decorative, and which already have solid alt text—then generate, apply, or mark decorative in one place.
<h4>AI Alt Text Generation</h4>
Generate descriptive, context-aware alt text in bulk using your choice of OpenAI, Google Gemini, or Anthropic Claude. Review each recommendation before applying. The plugin can use post or product context when available. WooCommerce product images are supported; alt text can include product name and attributes. Bring your own API key for the provider you choose. Get keys: <a href="https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys" rel="nofollow ugc">OpenAI</a>, <a href="https://aistudio.google.com/apikey" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Gemini</a>, <a href="https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys" rel="nofollow ugc">Anthropic Claude</a>.
<h4>Built for Agencies & Site Owners</h4>
Fix hundreds or thousands of images quickly. Reduce accessibility risk exposure and improve media SEO coverage with bulk generation, risk-based filtering, and one-click mark-as-decorative. The plugin aligns with WCAG 2.1 guidance for non-text content; it does not provide legal certification or guarantee full WCAG compliance.
<h4>Works With</h4>
<ul>
<li>WooCommerce (product images)</li>
<li>Any WordPress theme</li>
<li>Major SEO plugins</li>
</ul>
Optional <a href="https://fluxplugins.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Flux Suite</a> license connects to hosted alt text generation (no BYOK API keys required for that path). Automation, compliance scans, and the rest of the plugin work without a license when you configure a BYOK provider key or use hosted generation when you choose Flux Suite.
<h4>Automation (merged from former separate plugin)</h4>
As of version 4.0.0, automation and related tools previously shipped in Flux AI Alt Text & Accessibility Audit Pro are built into this plugin. With Settings > Automation enabled you can:
<ul>
<li>Run automated alt text queueing on a recurring schedule (Action Scheduler). Scheduled generation uses your configured BYOK provider API key or Flux Suite hosted generation when a valid license is active.</li>
<li>Run a daily compliance scan without manual scans (runs locally on your site; no license required)</li>
<li>Use hosted generation without configuring OpenAI, Gemini, or Claude API keys when a valid Flux Suite license is active (optional serviceware)</li>
<li>Apply SEO-friendly filename suggestions where enabled in Settings (Suite-provided suggestions when using Flux Suite hosted generation)</li>
</ul>
Configure these under Flux Suite > AI Media Alt Creator > Settings > Automation. To use hosted generation, activate your license under Flux Suite > License. If you still have the separate Pro plugin installed, deactivate and remove it after upgrading to 4.0.0 or later to avoid duplicate processing.
<h4>Core Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>On-demand media library scan and optional daily compliance scan (no license required)</li>
<li>Alt Text Coverage Score with risk breakdown by category</li>
<li>Missing, Placeholder, Duplicate, Descriptive, Contextual, and Decorative classification</li>
<li>AI-generated descriptive alt text (BYOK or Flux Suite–hosted)</li>
<li>Bulk generate and apply with background batch processing</li>
<li>Automated alt text queueing and scheduled compliance scans</li>
<li>SEO filename generation and apply (Settings-controlled)</li>
<li>Mark images as decorative (WCAG best practice)</li>
<li>WooCommerce product image support</li>
<li>Context-aware generation using post/product data</li>
<li>Lightweight and WordPress-native</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy</h3>
External Service Integration:
This plugin can integrate with OpenAI, Google (Gemini), or Anthropic (Claude) vision APIs for BYOK alt text, and optionally with Flux Suite–hosted endpoints when you use Flux Suite hosted generation. You choose the path in Settings.
What Data is Sent:
When you generate alt text, the following data is sent to the selected provider’s servers: 
* Image files or URLs (for analysis via the provider’s vision API) 
* Your API key for authentication (stored in WordPress options, transmitted only during API requests)
When Data is Sent:
BYOK: data is sent when you explicitly request alt text generation unless you enable upload-time auto-generation or scheduled alt generation in Settings (requires a configured BYOK provider key or Flux Suite hosted generation with a valid license). Flux Suite: when you use hosted generation with a valid license, images may be processed per your Automation settings. Daily compliance scans run locally and do not send image data to external vision APIs.
Service Providers (one chosen in Settings for BYOK): 
* OpenAI – Terms: https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use | Privacy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy | API keys: https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys 
* Google Gemini – Terms: https://policies.google.com/terms | Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy | API keys: https://aistudio.google.com/apikey 
* Anthropic Claude – Terms: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/terms | Privacy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy | API keys: https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys
Important Notes: 
* BYOK requires an API key for the selected provider 
* Image data is transmitted to that provider when you request BYOK generation 
* You can remove or change the API key at any time 
* Scheduled alt generation may process images in the background when enabled under Settings and BYOK or Flux Suite hosted generation is configured; compliance scans run locally
<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>
Flux AI Alt Text & Accessibility Audit integrates with OpenAI, Google Gemini, or Anthropic Claude when you use BYOK in Settings, and optionally with Flux Suite–hosted services when you choose hosted generation. When you generate alt text with BYOK, image data is sent to the selected provider for processing. Scheduled alt generation may send image data per your Automation settings when BYOK or Flux Suite hosted generation is configured. Compliance scans run on your site without sending images to external vision APIs.

Flux AI Alt Text & Accessibility Audit by Flux Plugins

Hamid Aminirad

A11yBridge adds a visitor-friendly accessibility toolbar to your WordPress site. Visitors can adjust the visual appearance and navigation of your content with one click.
Video demo: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEINE_VIDEO_ID
Core features (no external backend, works offline): 
* Font size controls 
* Contrast adjustments 
* Focus mode (reduce distractions / highlight content area) 
* Color-blindness filters / color adjustments 
* Keyboard navigation support 
* Text-to-speech (TTS)
Optional AI feature: 
* AI-powered text simplification (multiple levels and languages)
Important note: 
This plugin can improve usability and accessibility, but it cannot guarantee full compliance with WCAG or any specific legal requirement. Always test your site with real assistive technologies and accessibility audits.
<h3>AI features (optional)</h3>
AI text simplification is processed on A11yBridge servers in Germany. Backend features are disabled by default and are only used after the site owner enables them (or activates a license). Any usage limits are enforced by the external service and depend on the service subscription associated with the installation. 
All non-AI accessibility tools (toolbar, contrast, focus mode, keyboard support, text-to-speech) work without any AI connection.
The plugin itself does not lock or restrict built-in/local functionality based on a license key, trial period, or local usage counters. 
If the service quota is exceeded, the service returns an error response and the plugin displays a notice.
<h3>External Services / Data Transmission</h3>
This plugin can optionally connect to A11yBridge backend services to provide AI text simplification and related service operations (e.g., quota management, license activation, abuse prevention). For WP.org compliance, it does NOT contact external servers by default. External requests happen only after explicit admin opt-in (backend enabled / AI feature enabled) or after the admin activates a license key.
Service endpoint(s):
<ul>
<li>https://a11ybridge.de/wp-json/a11ybridge/v1
<ul>
<li>/license/status (read current license/installation status)</li>
<li>/license/activate (activate/bind license to this site)</li>
<li>/license/domains/delete (remove domain binding from license)</li>
<li>/free/status (free-tier quota status, only after admin opt-in)</li>
<li>/chat/simplify (AI text simplification, only when triggered by the user)</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
What data may be transmitted (depending on enabled features):
Local storage / Cookies on the site where the plugin is installed:
To remember accessibility preferences for visitors, A11yBridge stores settings in the visitor’s browser storage and (for guests) may also store a pseudonymous guest identifier.
Browser storage (localStorage) keys used by the frontend may include: 
* a11ybridge_plugin_settings (visitor accessibility preferences) 
* A11YBRIDGE_USER_LOCAL_V1 (visitor feature flags/preferences) 
* a11ybridge_colorMode (display mode) 
* a11ybridge:consent:text_simplify: (stores the visitor’s consent decision for AI text simplification prompts)
Cookie (functional): 
* a11ybridge_guest_id (random pseudonymous ID for guest settings; used to associate guest preferences stored on the same WordPress installation; expires after 30 days; SameSite=Lax; Secure on HTTPS)
This storage is used only to provide the requested accessibility features and is not used for advertising or cross-site tracking. Site owners should document this storage in their privacy/cookie documentation as required by applicable law.
<ul>
<li>Selected text submitted by the user for AI text simplification (only when the user triggers simplification)</li>
<li>Pseudonymous installation ID</li>
<li>Domain/host (only after admin opt-in or license activation)</li>
<li>License key hash (pseudonymous, if a license is used)</li>
<li>Service-side usage/quota accounting</li>
<li>Request metadata (no IP forwarding; IP may be processed in server/security logs depending on configuration)</li>
</ul>
Purposes:
<ul>
<li>Provide AI text simplification on request</li>
<li>Service-side quota enforcement and account/service management</li>
<li>Abuse prevention, security and troubleshooting</li>
</ul>
Infrastructure / Hosting:
<ul>
<li>Backend services are hosted on a Hetzner server located in Nuremberg, Germany.</li>
<li>Subscription payments (if used) are handled by Paddle (Merchant of Record). No payment card data is handled by this plugin.</li>
</ul>
