AI alt text generator for WordPress and WooCommerce: see which images are missing alt text, then fix them in bulk.
OpptiAI Alt Text scans your Media Library and WooCommerce product images and shows your alt text coverage: how many images have missing alt text, how many need review, and which to fix first. It then writes clear, descriptive AI alt text for each image. You can review, edit or regenerate the results at any time. Automatic generation only runs on new uploads that arrive without alt text, and bulk and regenerate only change the images you pick.
Good image alt text does two jobs. It helps Google Images and product search understand each picture, which supports image SEO, and it gives screen-reader users the description they rely on for accessibility. Bulk generation clears a backlog in one run, and Autopilot (Growth or Agency) covers new uploads. There is no OpenAI API key to set up, and the coverage scan is free to try before you sign up.
Features
Free alt text coverage scan of the Media Library and WooCommerce product images, with missing, needs review and optimised counts on one dashboard.
Next recommended action so you know which images to fix first.
AI alt text you can edit any time: review, edit or regenerate any result. Missing alt text is filled first, and you choose when to regenerate anything else.
No OpenAI API key required. Generation runs through the OpptiAI service, so there is no separate AI key to manage or pay for.
WooCommerce ready for product featured images and gallery images, without touching your theme or catalogue.
Bulk generation: select many images, generate them in one run, then review and edit the results. Bulk works within your free allowance, and paid plans add more volume.

External Services
This plugin connects to external APIs to generate image alt text and provide account/billing features.
Service: OpptiAI API (https://alttext-ai-backend.onrender.com) Purpose: Generate alt text descriptions, perform alt text review checks, and handle authentication, license, usage, billing, and contact requests. Data sent: every request includes your site URL and a site fingerprint (a one-way hash created on your site). We need these to provide the service and licensing, including sign-in, free trial checks and stopping misuse of free credits. They are not usage analytics.
Billing requests also send your country, worked out from your browser’s location header, your site timezone or your admin language, so prices show in the right currency. Checkout also sends how you first found the plugin, if it was recorded: UTM source, medium, campaign, content and term, the referring site and the landing page path. Privacy policy: https://oppti.dev/privacy
Service: OpenAI API (used by the backend service) Purpose: Generate and review alt text descriptions. Privacy policy: https://openai.com/privacy
Service: PostHog (optional product analytics) Purpose: If the site owner opts in, send anonymous plugin usage analytics such as activation status, dashboard views, feature clicks, and upgrade funnel events. OpptiAI Alt Text does not send ALT text, filenames, image content, API tokens, or license keys in analytics events. Privacy policy: https://posthog.com/privacy

Frequently asked questions.
Is OpptiAI Alt Text free?
Yes, it is free to try. The coverage scan is free, and you can generate alt text for your first images before you sign up. A free account adds a monthly allowance, which you can use one image at a time or in bulk. Paid plans add more volume.
Can I see how many images are missing alt text before I sign up?
Yes. The scan shows how many images in your Media Library and WooCommerce catalogue are missing alt text, how many need review and how many are already optimised. No account is needed to see the result.
Do I need my own OpenAI API key?
No. Generation runs through the OpptiAI service, so you don’t have to create, manage or pay for a separate OpenAI key. Install, activate and start generating.
Can I bulk generate alt text in WordPress?
Yes. Select the images that need work, generate alt text in one run, then review and edit the results. Bulk generation works within your free allowance; paid plans add more volume for larger libraries.
What happens when I run out of credits?
Your saved alt text stays exactly as it is. You can wait for your monthly allowance to refresh, or upgrade to a paid plan for more volume. Failed generations do not use credits.
How does this compare with other AI alt text services?
If you want AI alt text with review control, WooCommerce support and no separate AI key, and you want to try it free first, OpptiAI Alt Text is a practical alternative. See a full comparison of AI alt text tools for WordPress .
Can it fix missing alt tags and image alt attributes?
Yes. WordPress stores image descriptions as alt attributes (often called alt tags). OpptiAI Alt Text finds images with missing alt text and helps you write clearer descriptions for media attachments, posts, pages and WooCommerce products.
Does this plugin help with accessibility and WCAG?
Yes. It helps you find, add and review alt text at scale, which supports accessibility and WCAG-oriented workflows. It assists your judgement rather than replacing it.
Does OpptiAI Alt Text work with WooCommerce product images?
Yes. It supports WooCommerce featured images, gallery images and standard WordPress media attachments used across product pages and shop content.
Can it generate alt text automatically for new uploads?
Yes, with Growth or Agency. Turn on Autopilot in Settings so new uploads get AI alt text automatically. On the free and Starter plans, generation is manual.
Will it overwrite my existing alt text?
Automatic generation only runs on new uploads that arrive without alt text, and bulk generate and regenerate only change the images you choose. You can review and edit the results at any time.
Are there other OpptiAI plugins?
Yes, two more free audits. OpptiAI Titles runs a free SEO health check for missing, duplicate and wrong-length titles and meta descriptions, next to Yoast, Rank Math or AIOSEO. OpptiAI Internal Linking finds orphan pages in one scan, in WordPress, with no account and no credits. All three can share one OpptiAI account.
