The author of this text is part of a company called SingleStore that wanted to improve the accessibility of their website, which had thousands of images without alternative text. They tried to automate the process using artificial intelligence (AI) and tested different AI models, including Claude by Anthropic, to generate accurate image descriptions. The results showed that Claude was more accurate for technical images and was able to generate concise yet informative descriptions. The company created a script to detect missing alt text, encode images in Base64 format, use Anthropic's TypeScript SDK to generate alt text, update the asset on the CMS with the generated description, and add the image to a release for review. This process is expected to be cost-effective, with an estimated $0.01 per image, making it a viable solution for improving accessibility without manual intervention.
