How this service works
Image alt-attribute generator: takes any image URL and returns a short, descriptive alt-text string sized for the HTML alt attribute, tuned for screen-reader clarity rather than verbose captioning. No image data is kept. Useful for CMS plugins, static-site build steps, and agents auditing pages for missing or poor alt text.
Output
A short, descriptive alt-text string optimized for the HTML alt attribute and screen-reader clarity — concise rather than verbose, suitable for direct insertion into HTML markup. No image data is retained after the call.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you generate a proper HTML alt attribute for this image so it's accessible to screen readers? Here's the URL: https://example.com/products/blue-sneaker.jpg”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://x402.forgemesh.io/generate-image-altWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need concise, screen-reader-optimized alt text generated from an image URL, especially in CMS plugins, static-site build pipelines, or accessibility auditing workflows. Prefer it over general-purpose image captioning APIs when you specifically need short HTML alt attributes rather than verbose descriptions, and when you want a privacy-safe solution that does not retain image data.
Side effects
- Image URL is not publicly accessible or returns a non-200 status — likely a 4xx or 5xx error response
- Image exceeds the 8MB size limit — rejected with an error indicating the file is too large
- URL points to a non-image resource (e.g. HTML page or PDF) — may return an error or generic description
- Slow-loading or timeout on the remote image fetch — may result in a timeout error
- Malformed or invalid URL provided — likely a validation error response
