Description
The Problem: WordPress has over 400 plugins that generate alt text. Most of them produce generic, robotic descriptions like “a photo of a person” that don’t help your SEO, don’t improve accessibility, and don’t match your content.
The Solution: PERSO IMAGE Insights goes far beyond basic alt text generation. It analyzes your actual posts and products to understand context, generates field-specific metadata (not one-size-fits-all), monitors your entire image library health, and protects your server with smart batch processing.
What You Get That Others Don’t:
Image SEO Health Score (0-100) — See the exact SEO health of all your images at a glance. Get your score, identify oversized images (>500KB), detect broken images, and track your improvement over time. No other alt-text plugin gives you this visibility.
Context-Aware AI Generation — Unlike competitors that describe images in isolation, our AI reads the post title, content, and category where the image appears. A photo of a coffee cup on a food blog gets “Freshly brewed Ethiopian coffee with latte art” instead of just “a cup of coffee.”
WooCommerce Product Intelligence — For product images, the AI uses your product name, category, and tags to generate compelling, sales-oriented metadata that helps convert visitors. A shoe image becomes “Nike Air Max 90 running shoes – breathable mesh upper with responsive cushioning” instead of “a pair of shoes.”
Smart Batch Processing — Process images in small 10-image batches with automatic pauses. Protect your server from overload and avoid Cloudflare API rate limits. Other plugins try to process everything at once and crash your site.
Field-Specific AI Prompts — Each field (Alt Text, Title, Caption, Description) gets its own optimized prompt. Alt text is concise for screen readers. Titles are catchy for SEO. Descriptions are detailed for storytelling. Captions are engaging for readers. No more copy-pasting the same text everywhere.
Privacy-First by Default — Uses Cloudflare Workers AI, which does not store or train on your images. Your data stays between you and Cloudflare. No OpenAI, no Anthropic, no third-party data sharing unless you explicitly configure it.
Zero Spam Policy — We don’t stuff keywords, we don’t generate irrelevant hashtags, and we don’t create robotic “image of…” descriptions. Every piece of metadata is written to be useful for real humans first, search engines second.

External Services
This plugin connects to Cloudflare Workers AI API for image analysis and metadata generation.
What the service is and what it is used for:
Cloudflare Workers AI provides vision-based image analysis capabilities. The plugin sends your images to Cloudflare’s AI service to generate alt text, titles, captions, and descriptions.
What data is sent and when:
When you initiate metadata generation for an image, the plugin sends the image file (converted to base64) to Cloudflare’s API along with a custom prompt describing what metadata to generate. This happens only when you explicitly click “Generate AI Metadata” or use bulk generation.
