FeaturesAlt text

Accessible alt text, ready to paste

Every image you publish needs a sentence for the people who cannot see it. Alt text writes that sentence properly.

Runs on the Swift tier — 1 credit per run.

What you get back

The alt text alone on the first line: one sentence of at most 140 characters, no quotation marks, no “image of” or “screenshot of”, describing function and meaning rather than appearance — the trend a chart shows, the text that is the point of a sign. On a second line, a longer description of up to 60 words for use as a caption or a figure description. Like Read text and Draft a message, it can place its result onto the picture as a caption before you export it.

When to reach for it

Images going into a website, a document, a slide deck, a social post or a support article. Anything a screen reader will meet. It runs on the lightest tier.

What leaves your machine

Exactly one image, once, when you press the lens — plus the capture's window title and dimensions, nothing else. It is read by a private model under zero data retention, the answer streams back as text and is saved onto the capture in your local library, and the image is not kept anywhere.

How to use it

  1. Capture — PrtScn for a region, Alt+PrtScn for a window, Ctrl+PrtScn for the whole screen.
  2. Pick the lens in Studio. The answer streams in and stays attached to that capture.
  3. Copy it, rerun it, ask a follow-up, or come back to it later from the Library.

Every lens on every plan

The free plan runs every lens, with a monthly credit allowance and nothing to configure. Capture, editing, redaction, the library and the presenter tools need no account at all.
