Founder @ AltTextLab
The reasons were never quite the same: sometimes the descriptions were too generic, sometimes the tool didn't talk to the CMS the team had picked, sometimes it just wasn't built for how the team actually worked. But the result was always the same: nothing fully worked, so I'd end up building something custom to cover the gap.
At some point I stopped treating it as a one-off. If the same gap kept showing up, it was worth solving properly instead of patching around it again. That's what AltTextLab is: everything that used to be a workaround, built once and properly.
