Next steps for real-world projects

The dashboard is perfect for quick tests and one-off images, but to keep your website accessible at scale you’ll want to automate:

  • Integrations – Connect WordPress, Webflow, CraftCMS, Zapier, and more for automatic alt text on every upload.
  • Web Snippet – Add a lightweight JavaScript snippet to instantly generate alt text for all images on your site, no plugin required.
  • API – Build custom workflows or connect AltTextLab to any platform.
