What ALTification is
ALTification is a WordPress plugin and web service that uses AI to create keyword-aware alt text, captions, and descriptions for images. It scans the page around an image, including surrounding content and SEO context, to produce page-specific wording. Bulk scans cover a site, while targeted scans can focus on pages, posts, and public custom post types, with options to exclude types. JPG, PNG, WebP, and AVIF images are supported. Integrations include Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework, WooCommerce, and Advanced Custom Fields. Agencies can receive before-and-after reports. One generation uses one credit; producing all three text types can use up to three credits per image. The free trial is 0.00 USD and includes 25 credits, three Preview & Refine tests, and one site. Paid plans include one-time packages and monthly options. API access, bulk processing, custom rules, and publishing workflows are listed.
