Context-Aware Alt Text

With the pro version of our WordPress AI Alt Text Generator Plugin, you can generate context-aware alt text. This means AI uses both the image itself, as well as the post/page it’s tied to, to generate the most appropriate alt text.

To enable this, go to the Context-Aware settings page and toggle on the Context Enabled option. Here you will also find an option to set a maximum number of words to draw from the associated post/page.

Now, when you upload a new image directly via the post/page edit screen, that image will be tied to that post/page, and, when you use our plugin to generate alt text for that image, it will take into account the content of the post/page as well as the image.

If you find that the alt text is not as related to the content of the post/page as you would like, you can manually adjust the prompt that is sent to OpenAI. Use the Context Template option to add your own custom prompt. You can see an example of a custom prompt in the screenshot above.
