How it sells itself

Product images without alt text are invisible to search engines and inaccessible to customers using screen readers. AltForge analyzes your product images with AI and generates descriptive alt text automatically. Process images one at a time or in bulk across your entire catalog. Every suggestion can be reviewed, edited, approved, or rejected before publishing.

AltGenius AI finds product images with missing or weak alt text and uses Google's Gemini Vision AI to write accurate, keyword-rich descriptions, then saves them to your store automatically. It analyzes each image, so the alt text reflects the product's colors, materials, and details.

Key points
  • AI analyzes product images and writes descriptive alt text automatically
  • Process your entire catalog at once with bulk generation
  • Review, edit, approve, or reject every suggestion before publishing
  • Restore previous alt text anytime with built-in backups
  • Generate SEO alt text for any product image in one click.
  • AI describes each image's product, colors, materials, and details.
  • Scan your catalog to find images that are missing alt text.
  • Save generated alt text to your products automatically.
