Web accessibility is often neglected due to time constraints
Compliance with WCAG standards is crucial, but manually writing alt text for thousands of images is a major operational challenge. The result: non-compliant sites, legal risks, and a degraded experience for visually impaired users.
Main negative impacts:
Legal non-compliance risks
The absence of proper alt attributes exposes your business to sanctions and lawsuits related to digital accessibility standards.
Massive manual workload
Qualifying each image individually is impossible at scale. This slows down the deployment of your marketing and technical content.
Incomplete user experience
Screen readers cannot interpret your visuals, excluding part of your audience and harming your inclusive brand image.
Swiftask automates this process by linking AltTextLab to your content management tools. Each new image is analyzed and described automatically, ensuring continuous compliance without human intervention.
BEFORE / AFTER
What changes with Swiftask
Manual accessibility management
A marketing team uploads dozens of images. Each image must be manually described in the CMS. Omissions are frequent, the quality of descriptions is uneven, and updating legacy image libraries is abandoned.
Automation with Swiftask and AltTextLab
As soon as an image is uploaded, Swiftask triggers analysis by AltTextLab. The alternative text is generated and inserted automatically into your metadata. Accessibility is guaranteed from the moment of publication.
