SEO HERO AI Alt Text Generator

Just finished my first pass, love the results. having tried a few other apps, this one is generating the most context-aware and usable alt text by miles. The support team were also prompt, and helpful.!

Very useful app. I was struggling to find the time to generate good quality alt texts on all my images. I found this app and thought I would give it a try. I am very impressed. Super simple to use. Very effective and much better quality alt texts than I imagined. I would definitely recommend this product.

As a one-woman independent fashion label, I simply don't have the time to write alt texts for hundreds of product images manually. SEO Hero has been a real time-saver — the AI actually describes the products well, picking up fabric texture, details and construction rather than just writing something generic. The before/after preview lets you check quality before applying, which I appreciated. Finally a tool that helps a small business move forward without needing a whole team behind it.

I'm early into using this, but it seems like a GREAT starter place for writing strong SEO alt text for images. (I have a few hundred images on my site and haven't consistently written alt text for them... it's been on my to do list for a while but it keeps overwhelming me). My business mentor suggested I check this out. You need to share some inputs (brand voice, key products, search terms, etc.)-- candidly, I used AI to help me with this. But once it was input-- the results were very strong. I'm excited to be able to have this run in the background and make my site more accessible without constant manual editing on my end. Gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the free version limits you to 50 images and some of the UI is less intuitive-- I had to use their chat to figure out how to do a couple things. But on the plus side, their contact center was SUPER responsive and helpful. Overall, I'd recommend.

Man I am beyond impressed with how easy the setup wizard was — it walked me through everything step by step: brand keywords, SEO terms, and tone in no time didn't take long at all. The AI-generated alt text quality is genuinely good and relevant to my niche (sensory toys for autism/ADHD). Used my 50 free credits on my main product images and the descriptions were descriptive and keyword-rich right out of the box. Great app for GMC compliance and SEO Highly Recommended!

I have used other SEO tools that have alt-text generation as part of their package. And have compared alttext.ai to this tool, SEO HERO.

After using this app to generate natural sounding alttext I have come to the conclusion this is one of the best out there, if not the best one yet.
Basic Plan(available to all plans):
1. This tool generates alt text like natural sounding language, not keyword-stuff and generic sounding using templates.
2. Accurately describes image and gives a good context clues even a blind person can understand it with near accuracy
3. Customize the brand voice using 2 preset settings at a time, but worry not there are at least a dozen to choose from.

On the premium plan:
4. Customize how the alt text is written based on your prompt, this is crucial if you want your alt text to sound like a magazine catalog or a technical spec document
5. If the context you want can't be found in your customer-facing data like Title, description and tags, you can use custom metafields as context, which i have read that alt text ai can handle but on a higher cost per image

Overall, this is a good app for it's price, but there are some minor quirks but they aren't deal breakers, they are just UI/UX issues

6. For SEO Context: adding seo keywords means clicking outside of the field instead of pressing enter which isn't intuitive, this can be quite a hassle if you are typing the SEO keywords because you need to move the mouse pointer and click away which stops your typing momentum

7. For Product Metafield: The metafield search input field disappears after entering a search term without results, so you need to click to another section and return to refresh and make the input field appear again. A standard red text that says "not found" or similar will suffice and speed up configuration while still keeping the input field visible

VERDICT: Would recommend this tool to anyone serious about optimizing their alt text game.

We just installed this app to help enhance our accessibility and ADA compliance. We add alt tags as part of our SEO strategy, but knew we likely had many images we needed to address. Installation was easy and quick, as was the web chat when I was inquiring about purchasing additional credits.

Just downloaded the app it was a breeze. Very easy to set up. I followed the set up guide to calibrate my settings & ran a few tests - all the alt text generated was great. Reached out to customer service with a couple questions via the chat and they got back to me quickly. Very helpful. I appreciate that they have an option to pay for just a one time bulk job instead of being tied into a plan. I may end up signing up for a plan to put alt text on auto-pilot from here moving forward, but since I had over 10,000 images that needed alt text added this app was a lifesaver.

We’ve tested a few AI alt text apps for Shopify, and this one has been the best balance of quality, speed, and ease of use so far.

The generated alt text actually makes sense contextually and doesn’t sound overly robotic like many other AI tools. Bulk generation saved us a huge amount of manual work, especially for stores with large product catalogs.

What we liked most:
• Fast bulk processing
• SEO-friendly alt text generation
• Easy setup and clean UI
• Ability to customize keywords and prompts
• Helpful and responsive support team

It’s a practical app for improving both accessibility and image SEO without spending hours editing images manually. Definitely recommended for Shopify stores that care about SEO and maintaining a well-optimized catalog.

"I just set up this app for my store and the process was straightforward. The AI-generated alt text looks great and is way better than the generic 'Product mockup' text I had on all my images. Looking forward to seeing the SEO results as it processes my full catalog. Great support team too! I would definitely recommend this app to anyone just starting out and needing genuine help."
