Checklist 3

Have an editor check relevance and accessibility before publishing.

Practical playbook

Draft concise alt text that respects page context

Alt text is not a place to repeat SEO keywords or describe every pixel. It should help a person understand the image’s relevant purpose when the image itself is unavailable, and it should be reviewed in the context of the page where it appears.

Playbook step 1

Explain the image’s role on the page

Use the instruction to state whether the image is a product photo, article illustration, data graphic, decorative element, or functional control. The same visual can need different alt text in different contexts. If an image is purely decorative, the correct accessibility decision may be to use empty alternative text rather than generate a description.

Playbook step 2

Lead with the relevant subject and action

For meaningful imagery, describe the main object, person, action, or information first. Add context only when it changes what a reader needs to know. Avoid starting with “image of” and avoid inserting promotional phrases that a sighted reader cannot actually see in the visual.

Playbook step 3

Handle text and complex visuals deliberately

If important text appears in the image, ensure that the essential information is also available in the page content or an accessible equivalent. Charts, diagrams, and screenshots may need a longer explanation elsewhere. A one-sentence generated draft is not enough when the image carries substantive information.

Playbook step 4

Review with accessibility standards in mind

Check the final sentence for accuracy, relevance, and unnecessary assumptions about identity or emotion. Keep a clear editorial rule for length and style across the site. The generator can save drafting time, but accessibility quality depends on a human who understands why that image is on the page.

Create text from an uploaded image

Upload one image, add an optional instruction for the format and tone, then review the result before publishing.
