See every featureMost of your product images lack alt text — the short description Google uses to rank them and screen readers read to shoppers. Most stores have hundreds missing; other tools fix some and leave the rest. AltFinish finishes the job: a clear, accurate description for every image, using state-of-the-art image-to-text processing, so you stay compliant and rank higher in search.
AltGenius writes alt text for your product images from a template you choose, using details such as title, type, brand and variant. You see the result on your own products before you start. By default it fills in only images with no alt text, so anything you wrote stays as it is. Alt text with links or embed code, which review and video apps use, is skipped.
