Expected Outcomes
Measure the impact of this workflow.
Save time by generating contextual alt text suggestions with your own Groq key.
Maintain full WCAG standard compliance through interactive manual human approval queues.
Common problems
What this workflow helps you fix.
Alt text is missing or repeats the filename (e.g. "screenshot-2026-07-08.png")
Decorative images are incorrectly flagged as errors instead of getting empty alt attributes
AI generators describe images out-of-context, ignoring the surrounding post or product page
Editors lack a consolidated queue to review, edit, approve, or reject descriptions in bulk
A practical Cyphex workflow
- Run the Accessibility Audit to categorize images as missing, descriptive, or filename-like.
- Differentiate decorative images from informative content to assign empty alt tags where appropriate.
- Configure an optional Groq, OpenAI, or Gemini API key to query suggestions for complex images.
- Open the Alt Review Queue to inspect page contexts and save approved tags directly to database meta.
Eligibility matters: local features use WordPress server capabilities. External AI remains optional and follows the provider account you configure.
Frequently asked questions
Does AI alt text guarantee WCAG compliance?
No. AI suggestions are starting points. Under WCAG standards, alt text must represent editorial intent. Human review is required to confirm compliance.
How does the plugin determine image context?
If an image is attached to a post or WooCommerce product, Cyphex scans the page title and surrounding text to provide the AI model with relevant context.
Is user content kept private?
Yes. The plugin connects directly from your host server to your chosen API provider. No image data is sent to intermediate Cyphex servers.
