How does the Automated Alt Text Generator API work?
The SentiSight pre-trained models can be used to generate automatic alt text suggestions based on the content of the images. The relevant pre-trained models for Alt Text are:
- Places Classification - Identify the place or type of place within an image, such as the beach or a park
- General Classification - Classification is one of the primary uses of image recognition, used to identify the content of an image
- General Object Detection - Accessible image datasets with real-time analytics to highlight any aspects of the production line which need addressing.
The predictions can then be downloaded as either CSV or JSON, which can easily be integrated on to your website.
Setting alt text for images is very important for SEO and is a key contributing search engine ranking factor.
