Walstar AI Image ALT Generator

Automatically generate ALT text for images missing ALT attributes to improve accessibility and search visibility.

Connor Bulmer

AI Auto Alt Text Generator is a lightweight, privacy-conscious plugin that uses OpenAI vision-capable models (defaulting to GPT-5.4 nano, with GPT-5.4 mini and legacy GPT-4o mini options) to create meaningful, screen-reader-friendly alt text and SEO-friendly titles for your images. Whether you add a single image, bulk-process your library, or just want a one-click fix in the Media Library, the plugin handles it all – no manual effort required.
This solution is far cheaper than many alternatives because it cuts out the middle-person. You’ll just need to bring your own OpenAI API key.
<h3>✨ Key features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Automatic alt text on upload – set-and-forget accessibility.</li>
<li>Optional automatic image titles – improve SEO with descriptive titles.</li>
<li>One-click manual generation – “Generate Alt Text & Title” button in the Media Library.</li>
<li>Bulk update tool – batch-process existing images, including those that only have filename-based alt text, with a configurable pause between batches.</li>
<li>Prompt fine-tuning – supply site-wide context and optionally include the image file name.</li>
<li>Model selection – default to GPT-5.4 nano (fastest & cheapest) or switch to GPT-5.4 mini for higher quality; legacy GPT-4o mini and GPT-5 mini/nano remain available.</li>
<li>Image size & detail control – choose the resolution and level of visual detail sent.</li>
<li>Developer-friendly – filters and actions to customise prompts, models and output, plus optional outgoing webhooks.</li>
<li>WordPress Abilities API – registers a <code>generate-alt-text</code> ability (WordPress 6.9+/7.0) so core AI, agents and automation tools can generate alt text.</li>
<li>No extra servers – data flows only between your site and OpenAI; nothing is stored off-site.</li>
<li>Multilingual output – choose English (UK), English (US) or other popular languages. (English US is the default.)</li>
</ul>
<h3>🧭 Where to find the bulk tool</h3>
<ul>
<li>Tools → Bulk Alt Text Update</li>
<li>Media → Bulk Alt Text Update (shortcut that redirects to the Tools page)</li>
<li>Settings → Alt Text Generator includes a button linking straight to the bulk page</li>
</ul>
<h3>🧠 How it works</h3>
<ol>
<li>When an image is uploaded (or manually chosen), the plugin creates a temporary public URL for that image.</li>
<li>It sends the image – plus optional context such as the parent post title, your custom site context and the file name – to your selected OpenAI vision model.</li>
<li>OpenAI returns a concise description.
<ul>
<li>Alt text is stored in WordPress’ native <code>_wp_attachment_image_alt</code> field.</li>
<li>(Optional) The returned title is stored as the attachment post title.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Nothing is cached or stored on OpenAI’s side; only the final strings live in your database.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Settings overview</h3>
<ul>
<li>OpenAI API Key – Required to connect to OpenAI.</li>
<li>OpenAI Model – GPT-5.4 nano (default), GPT-5.4 mini, or legacy GPT-4o mini / GPT-5 mini / GPT-5 nano.</li>
<li>Image Size to Send – Thumbnail, Medium, Large, or Full.</li>
<li>Image Detail Quality – ‘Low’ or ‘High’ (Low uses fewer tokens).</li>
<li>Bulk batch size – Number of images per batch (lower values reduce rate-limit risk).</li>
<li>Site Context – Optional free-form prompt guidance (brand voice, niche, etc.).</li>
<li>Send Image File Name – Include file name in the prompt for extra context.</li>
<li>Automatically Generate Title – Add descriptive titles alongside alt text.</li>
<li>Use full context for image titles – When enabled, title generation includes site context and file name (uses more tokens).</li>
<li>Bulk optimiser delay (seconds) – Pause between batches during bulk runs.</li>
<li>OpenAI request timeout (seconds) – Max wait time for OpenAI responses (10–120s) to reduce timeout failures on slower hosts.</li>
<li>Output Language – Default English (US). Choose English (UK) for British spellings or another popular language; outputs (alt text and titles) will be generated in the selected language.</li>
<li>Webhook URL & signing secret – Optionally POST generated alt text/titles to an external endpoint (with an optional HMAC-SHA256 signature) for automation and logging.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Developers</h3>
The plugin is extensible via standard WordPress hooks, an outgoing webhook, and the WordPress Abilities API.
Filters
<ul>
<li><code>aatg_alt_text_prompt</code> ( $prompt, $post_ID, $context ) – customise the alt-text prompt.</li>
<li><code>aatg_image_title_prompt</code> ( $prompt, $post_ID, $context ) – customise the title prompt.</li>
<li><code>aatg_openai_request_payload</code> ( $payload, $context, $messages ) – customise the full OpenAI request (model, messages, reasoning effort).</li>
<li><code>aatg_generated_alt_text</code> ( $alt_text, $post_ID ) – filter alt text before it is saved.</li>
<li><code>aatg_generated_title</code> ( $title, $post_ID ) – filter the title before it is saved.</li>
<li><code>aatg_is_low_quality_alt</code> ( $is_low, $alt, $post_ID ) – control which existing alt text the bulk tool regenerates.</li>
<li><code>aatg_webhook_payload</code> ( $payload, $post_ID, $result ) – customise the outgoing webhook body.</li>
<li><code>aatg_supported_image_extensions</code> ( $extensions ) – customise which image formats are sent to OpenAI (default: PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP).</li>
</ul>
Actions
<ul>
<li><code>aatg_after_alt_text_generated</code> ( $post_ID, $alt_text )</li>
<li><code>aatg_after_title_generated</code> ( $post_ID, $title )</li>
<li><code>aatg_after_generation</code> ( $post_ID, $result )</li>
</ul>
Outgoing webhook
Set a Webhook URL under Settings → Integrations & Webhooks to receive a non-blocking JSON POST after each generation. If a signing secret is set, requests include an <code>X-AATG-Signature: sha256=…</code> header (HMAC-SHA256 of the body) so your endpoint can verify authenticity.
WordPress Abilities API
On WordPress 6.9+ the plugin registers the ability <code>ai-auto-alt-text/generate-alt-text</code> (input: <code>attachment_id</code>) so WordPress core AI, agents, MCP servers and automation tools can generate alt text programmatically. Execute it with <code>wp_get_ability( 'ai-auto-alt-text/generate-alt-text' )->execute( array( 'attachment_id' => 123 ) )</code>.
<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin connects to the OpenAI API to generate alt text and (optionally) image titles.
<ul>
<li>Endpoint: <code>https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions</code></li>
<li>When called:
<ul>
<li>On image upload (automatic)</li>
<li>Via “Generate Alt Text & Title” button in Media Library (manual)</li>
<li>Via Tools → Bulk Alt Text Update (bulk)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Data sent: image URL, optional file name, optional site context, optional parent post title</li>

<li>Privacy: <a href="https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy</a></li>
</ul>
If you configure a Webhook URL, generated alt text/titles (and the image URL) are also sent to that endpoint you control.
