A series of illustrated posters displayed at various angles, containing several examples of image types that require alt text, such as photos, diagrams, graphics, and illustrations.


For years, digital creators, accessibility gurus, and more have lived with a simple yet

persistent problem: we want to make our content accessible, but the time and effort it

takes to write quality alt text is a burden. Whether you’re running a blog, handling an

online store, or managing a large school, government agency, or health plan, you know

that images pile up very quickly. And each one of them deserves a description that

helps visually impaired users understand what’s on the page. However, crafting those

descriptions manually, day after day, post after post, can become a bottleneck. Many of

you may be tempted to rush through alt text creation or even skip it altogether. But

including alt text in your accessibility practices isn’t just an ideal to strive toward – it’s a

legal and ethical requirement.


That’s why Splash Box Marketing has created a new tool to automatically generate

quality alt text. Our tool, Access Alt Text, strives to solve this problem for users. With a

single upload, Access Alt Text analyzes the image, interprets the context, and generates

alt text that is informative and natural. Suddenly, a task that once demanded meticulous

attention is now nearly effortless.


A few features make Access Alt Text stand out:

  • Consistent, high-quality descriptions that are genuinely helpful

  • Batch processing for tackling large sets of images at once

  • Ability to extract images straight from a PDF

  • Subscription-based model that makes for simple budgeting

  • Seamless integration to fit into your existing workflow


Instead of alt text being an afterthought or a chore squeezed in at the very end, Access

Alt Text makes it a part of the creative process and helps you prioritize accessibility

goals. Access Alt Text can lead to a meaningful shift in our accessibility practices: more

images described, more content made visible, and more of the web open, navigable,

and accessible.
