The DockAccess AI Alt Generator module writes the alt texts of your product images in the language of every store view.
ZIP file from DockAccess
The module works with Magento Open Source, Adobe Commerce and Mage-OS from version 2.4.4, on PHP 8.1 to 8.4. It describes one image in the product gallery or a selected batch, saves the descriptions per store view and synchronises your corrections with DockAccess.
Product gallery images and their Alt Text field. Category images, CMS pages and blocks, Page Builder content and theme graphics need separate care.
You unpack the module into app/code/DockCodes/DockAccessAltGenerator and turn it on with bin/magento commands, so it needs access to the server (SSH). In Catalog → DockAccess AI Alt Generator → Connection and settings you give the site token and the e-mail address and password of your DockAccess account.
Unpack the downloaded dockaccess_alt_generator.zip file into app/code/DockCodes/DockAccessAltGenerator of your Magento installation.
In the Magento directory, run bin/magento module:enable DockCodes_DockAccessAltGenerator, then bin/magento setup:upgrade.
In production mode, also run bin/magento setup:di:compile and bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy, and finally bin/magento cache:flush.
In the Magento admin, open Catalog → DockAccess AI Alt Generator → Connection and settings, paste the token, enter the e-mail address and password of your DockAccess account and click Connect.
The password is used only to connect and is not stored. The address of the shop must be one of the site's domains in DockAccess.
In Catalog → DockAccess AI Alt Generator → Product images, generate the alt texts of the product images, or click Generate alt text in the image details of a product.
Describe one image in the product gallery, or many on the Product images screen: select the images and start generating. Check the descriptions in each store view.
The free plan describes 10 images a day on one site. Paid plans count images a month: Starter 500, Pro 2,000 and Agency 20,000. The limit counts the images described in your DockAccess account and by every integration together.
Check a generated description before you publish it, especially names, numbers and the text visible in the picture. A decorative image should have an empty alt, and an image that is the only content of a link describes where the link goes.
To write a description, the AI service gets the image, the language and the context and tone you set.
The AI generator writes alt texts for your images in your CMS or in your own code.
Download for freeFree up to 10 images a day.
