Detailed Information

The Alt-Text-Generator helps your communications team quickly produce accessible German alt texts for the images on your website — an essential requirement for web accessibility compliance that's often tedious to do manually at scale. Simply provide an image or an entire webpage URL, and the tool uses AI to draft a fitting description, taking into account the image itself as well as surrounding context like headings, captions, and any existing alt text. It can process a single image on the spot via a simple web interface, or handle your whole site in one go through the command-line tool, exporting results as an Excel file ready for editorial review. Because it relies on an external AI provider (OpenRouter) to analyze images, it should only be used with non-sensitive, publicly intended content — which fits naturally with its purpose of describing public-facing website images. In short, it turns a time-consuming accessibility task into a fast, reviewable draft, making it easier for your team to keep growing web content compliant and inclusive.
