Alt Audit
Alt Audit generates AI alt text, checks websites for missing or weak image descriptions, and exports accessibility reports.
What Alt Audit is
Alt Audit generates AI alt text, checks websites for missing or weak image descriptions, and exports accessibility reports. Its site audits review real pages, not only individual image uploads. The About page says Google Gemini 2.5 Flash generates the text, and the service describes its image checks as aligned with WCAG Level A requirements; it also says its output meets WCAG 2.2 standards. Reports are available as PDFs and summaries for clients, stakeholders, or content teams. A WordPress plugin can generate alt text when images are uploaded and process existing media-library images in bulk. Users can create API tokens from the dashboard for integrations. Each processed image uses one credit; subscription credits reset monthly and unused credits do not carry over. Alt Audit says images are accessed temporarily by URL and discarded after processing, while URL references and generated alt text are stored. The free plan includes 25 credits per month. Paid plans start with Starter at $5 a month for 800 credits; Pro is $19 a month for 3,000 credits, and Agency is $49 a month for 8,000 credits and API access.

The full review of Alt Audit
Alt Audit is an AI alt-text and website-auditing service for people responsible for image accessibility across websites. It is best suited to agencies, accessibility consultants, and WordPress teams that need bulk processing and client-facing reports. Its mix of page scans and publishing workflows is useful, but monthly credits expire rather than roll over.
Overview
Alt Audit goes beyond generating descriptions for individual images: it scans live pages for missing or weak alt text and surfaces issues across a site. That makes it a more complete cleanup workflow than an upload-only generator, although its image checks and generated text should still be treated as accessibility aids, not a replacement for contextual review. Alt Audit describes its checks as aligned with WCAG Level A and says its output meets WCAG 2.2 standards.
Google Gemini 2.5 Flash generates the alt text. PDF reports and summaries help consultants and teams share findings with clients and stakeholders, giving the audit side a practical deliverable beyond the descriptions themselves.
Key features
Image processing and audits
Bulk processing suits teams working through large media libraries, and supported formats include JPEG, PNG, GIF, and WebP. Each image uses one credit, so the monthly allowance determines how much work a plan can absorb. The real-page scan is the standout distinction for site-wide reviews; teams focused only on occasional image descriptions may not need that broader workflow.
WordPress and API workflows
The WordPress plugin can create alt text when images are uploaded and process existing media-library images in bulk. API access lets developers integrate through tokens created in the dashboard, but it is reserved for the Agency plan. Publishing workflow support makes Alt Audit more relevant to teams maintaining ongoing content than to users who only need a one-off generator.
Privacy and support
Images are accessed temporarily by URL and discarded after processing, while image URL references and generated alt text are stored. Alt Audit says it encrypts data in transit and at rest, conducts regular security audits, and complies with GDPR and CCPA. Free Starter users receive community support; paid plans include priority email support.
Pricing
Alt Audit is freemium, with paid plans starting at $5 a month. Each paid tier has a fixed monthly credit pool, and unused credits do not roll over, so choose based on a typical month rather than a one-time peak. At one credit per image, the limits are easy to translate into processing capacity.
- Free Starter: 25 credits per month forever, AI alt-text generation, the WordPress plugin, basic analytics and dashboard, and community support. It is a low-risk way to try the workflow, but 25 images a month is too small for sustained site cleanup.
- Starter — $5 a month: 800 credits per month, bulk image processing, export capabilities, and priority email support. This is the practical entry point for a small site or modest recurring workload, but it does not include API access.
- Pro — $19 a month: 3,000 credits per month and the Starter features. It fits teams with regular larger batches; the higher quota is its main stated step up from Starter.
- Agency — $49 a month: 8,000 credits per month, everything in Pro, API access, white-label options, and a dedicated account manager. It is aimed at agencies handling client work or integrations, though the unused-credit rule still makes fluctuating workloads a consideration.
Platforms
Alt Audit is available on the web and through an API, with a WordPress plugin for content workflows. That combination suits teams that want browser-based audits, WordPress processing, or an integration path; API access is included only with Agency.
Who it's for
Accessibility consultants and SEO professionals can use site scans and exportable reports to identify issues and communicate progress. Agencies gain white-label options and a dedicated account manager on Agency, while WordPress teams can automate upload-time generation and batch-process existing media. It is less compelling for occasional personal use if 25 free credits are insufficient but a monthly subscription would go mostly unused.
Pros and cons
- Pro: Site scans assess real pages, making the product useful for finding issues beyond individual image uploads.
- Pro: WordPress upload generation and bulk media processing support ongoing publishing workflows.
- Pro: PDF reports and summaries give consultants and teams a shareable audit output.
- Con: Unused credits expire monthly, which can waste capacity when image volume varies.
- Con: The free plan's 25 monthly credits limit meaningful processing to a small volume.
- Con: API access is limited to the $49 a month Agency tier.
Alternatives
For a broader comparison, browse AI Alt Text Generators.
- AltTextLab is worth considering if its free 25 monthly credits, unlimited websites, 20+ integrations and API, or 130+ languages better match your workflow.
- AutoAlt.ai is another freemium option, with a free tier of 50 credits per month and a free trial.
- Altvisor offers a web-only free plan with 50 images per month, one website, and 24 EU languages.
- Uix Page Builder is a free WordPress plugin option.
- AI Alt Text Generator has a managed-credit free plan billed at 50 images per month per site.
- AI Image Alt Text Generator is a free self-hosted plugin, but it requires a configured AI provider, which may charge per API request.
- Alt Text Studio offers pay-as-you-go credits as well as a monthly plan, a useful alternative if buying credits as needed suits you better.
- AltText.ai offers credit packs without a subscription alongside annual plans.
Verdict
Alt Audit is a strong fit for consultants, agencies, and WordPress teams that need site-level image checks, bulk processing, and report exports in one workflow. Its clearest reason to choose it is the combination of live-page audits and publishing tools; its clearest reason to look elsewhere is the monthly credit model, especially if volume is unpredictable or API access does not justify the Agency price.
