<p>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.</p>
<h4>NEW – Compliance Dashboard</h4>
<p>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.</p>
<h4>AI Alt Text Generation</h4>
<p>Generate descriptive, context-aware alt text in bulk using your choice of <strong>OpenAI</strong>, <strong>Google Gemini</strong>, or <strong>Anthropic Claude</strong>. 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>.</p>
<h4>Built for Agencies & Site Owners</h4>
<p>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.</p>
<h4>Works With</h4>
<ul>
<li>WooCommerce (product images)</li>
<li>Any WordPress theme</li>
<li>Major SEO plugins</li>
</ul>
<p>Optional <a href="https://fluxplugins.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Flux Suite</a> license connects to <strong>hosted</strong> alt text generation (no BYOK API keys required for that path). <strong>Automation, compliance scans, and the rest of the plugin work without a license</strong> when you configure a BYOK provider key or use hosted generation when you choose Flux Suite.</p>
<h4>Automation (merged from former separate plugin)</h4>
<p>As of version 4.0.0, automation and related tools previously shipped in <strong>Flux AI Alt Text & Accessibility Audit Pro</strong> are built into this plugin. With <strong>Settings > Automation</strong> enabled you can:</p>
<ul>
<li>Run <strong>automated alt text queueing</strong> on a recurring schedule (Action Scheduler). Scheduled generation uses your configured BYOK provider API key <strong>or</strong> Flux Suite hosted generation when a valid license is active.</li>
<li>Run a <strong>daily compliance scan</strong> without manual scans (runs locally on your site; no license required)</li>
<li>Use <strong>hosted generation</strong> without configuring OpenAI, Gemini, or Claude API keys when a valid Flux Suite license is active (optional serviceware)</li>
<li>Apply <strong>SEO-friendly filename</strong> suggestions where enabled in Settings (Suite-provided suggestions when using Flux Suite hosted generation)</li>
</ul>
<p>Configure these under <strong>Flux Suite > AI Media Alt Creator > Settings > Automation</strong>. To use hosted generation, activate your license under <strong>Flux Suite > License</strong>. 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.</p>
<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>
<p><strong>External Service Integration:</strong></p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>What Data is Sent:</strong></p>
<p>When you generate alt text, the following data is sent to the selected provider’s servers:<br />
* Image files or URLs (for analysis via the provider’s vision API)<br />
* Your API key for authentication (stored in WordPress options, transmitted only during API requests)</p>
<p><strong>When Data is Sent:</strong></p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>Service Providers (one chosen in Settings for BYOK):</strong><br />
* <strong>OpenAI</strong> – 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<br />
* <strong>Google Gemini</strong> – Terms: https://policies.google.com/terms | Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy | API keys: https://aistudio.google.com/apikey<br />
* <strong>Anthropic Claude</strong> – Terms: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/terms | Privacy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy | API keys: https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys</p>
<p><strong>Important Notes:</strong><br />
* BYOK requires an API key for the selected provider<br />
* Image data is transmitted to that provider when you request BYOK generation<br />
* You can remove or change the API key at any time<br />
* 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</p>
<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>
<p>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.</p>

<p><strong>Key points:</strong><br />
* BYOK uses one vision API (OpenAI, Gemini, or Claude) based on Settings<br />
* Image data is transmitted to that provider when you request BYOK generation<br />
* API keys are stored in WordPress options<br />
* Scheduled alt generation may process media in the background when BYOK or Flux Suite hosted generation is configured<br />
* Full compliance with WordPress.org guidelines and privacy regulations</p>

Flux AI Alt Text & Accessibility Audit by Flux Plugins

Missing or weak alt text hurts SEO rankings and can create accessibility gaps. Scan and fix your entire media library in minutes with the help of AI.

willtdf

<p><strong>TDF Image Alt Scanner</strong> scans your entire WordPress site for images with missing or low-quality alt text and gives you a single place to fix them — across posts, pages, custom post types, the Media Library, and WooCommerce products.</p>
<p>Missing alt text is one of the most common and most expensive mistakes on the web:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>SEO</strong> — Google uses alt text to understand image content. Missing alts hurt image search rankings and reduce the contextual relevance of your pages.</li>
<li><strong>Accessibility</strong> — Screen readers depend on alt text. Missing alts exclude users with visual impairments from understanding your content.</li>
<li><strong>Compliance</strong> — WCAG 2.1 / 2.2 and the European Accessibility Act both require alt text on meaningful images. UK and EU sites that ignore this face increasing legal exposure.</li>
</ul>
<p>TDF Image Alt Scanner finds the gaps in minutes and gives you the tools to fix them.</p>
<h4>How it works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Click <strong>Run scan</strong>. The plugin walks your posts, pages, custom post types, Media Library, and WooCommerce galleries.</li>
<li>Each image is classified as <strong>Missing</strong>, <strong>Decorative</strong>, <strong>Filename</strong> (alt text equals the file name — useless to screen readers), or <strong>Valid</strong>.</li>
<li>The Results table shows everything in one place. Edit alt text inline; mark genuinely decorative images so they’re skipped by screen readers; export everything to CSV for review.</li>
<li>Re-run the scan whenever you want to see your compliance score improve.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Free version features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Full site scan — every image on your site.</li>
<li>Compliance score dashboard with scan history.</li>
<li>Sortable, filterable bulk-edit table — filter by status, post type, or sort by date.</li>
<li>Inline edit and save per image, with “mark as decorative” toggle.</li>
<li>Detection of missing alt, decorative alt, and “alt equals filename” cases.</li>
<li>CSV export of every audit row.</li>
<li>Scans posts, pages, custom post types, Media Library, and WooCommerce products (including variations and gallery images).</li>
<li>Gutenberg-aware: handles core/image, core/cover, core/gallery, and nested blocks.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Pro features (sold separately)</h4>
<ul>
<li>AI-generated alt text — bring your own API key (Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, or Gemini).</li>
<li>Per-image and bulk “Suggest with AI” actions, with review-before-save.</li>
<li>Configurable prompt templates: SEO-focused, accessibility-focused, e-commerce.</li>
<li>Multi-language alt text (30+ languages).</li>
<li>WooCommerce context-aware prompts (uses product name and category).</li>
<li>Scheduled re-scans (weekly / monthly).</li>
<li>Email and Slack reports of new missing alt text.</li>
<li>Branded PDF compliance reports referencing WCAG 2.1 / 2.2.</li>
<li>Compliance score trend chart over time.</li>
<li>Page builder integrations: Elementor, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Divi.</li>
<li>Cost estimator for AI bulk jobs.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy</h4>
<p>TDF Image Alt Scanner does not send any data off your site. The plugin only uses the WordPress REST API to communicate between the dashboard and your site’s database.</p>
<p>If you upgrade to Pro and enable AI alt text generation, you will be entering your own API key for one of the supported AI providers. In that case, image URLs and prompts are sent directly from your site to the AI provider you’ve chosen — TDF Image Alt Scanner never sees or stores them.</p>
<h4>Source code & building from source</h4>
<p>The admin dashboard is a React app compiled with Vite. The unminified source is shipped inside the plugin zip at <code>admin/react/src/</code> and can be rebuilt with:</p>
<pre><code>cd admin/react && npm install && npm run build
</code></pre>
<p>That regenerates the bundle at <code>admin/dist/</code>. Source files: <code>admin/react/src/*.jsx</code>, <code>admin/react/src/*.js</code>, <code>admin/react/src/styles.css</code>. Build config: <code>admin/react/package.json</code>, <code>admin/react/vite.config.js</code>.</p>
