Your Products Are Half-Invisible
When people research products with AI assistants, responses may draw on indexed web content such as product descriptions, reviews, specifications, and image context.
But there's a catch. AI systems can't actually see images. They read the text descriptions attached to images—called alt text. If your images don't have descriptions, or the descriptions are generic like "product image 1", the AI has no idea what those images show.
Missing descriptions leave out useful product context that could help people and automated systems understand the page.
AI Search Is Growing Fast
ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI features are changing how some people research products. Clear, reliable page content remains the foundation.

How AI Search Actually Works
Understanding how AI systems discover and process your content.
Crawl
AI systems send crawlers to read your website, just like Google. They parse HTML, extract text content, and index what they find.
Analyze
AI systems can synthesize information from multiple sources and use context to form responses.
Respond
When users ask questions, AI systems may draw on indexed or retrieved sources. Clear product information gives those systems more useful context.
Make your catalog machine-readable — then measure it
Search and AI systems can use page text, metadata, image analysis, and alt text to understand content. Accurate image descriptions add a useful signal, while the AI Visibility add-on measures how your brand appears in selected AI responses.
The Missing Layer of AI Visibility
Images are the blind spot in AI understanding.
When an automated system analyzes an e-commerce page, available context can include:
If your alt text says "IMG_4523.jpg" or is missing entirely, the AI has no idea what that image shows. Is it the product from the front? A size comparison? A lifestyle shot? Detailed alt text bridges this gap.
Without Alt Text
AI sees: Nothing
The image might as well not exist.
With AltText.ai
RecommendedAI sees: Full product context
Brand, model, color, angle, and features.
