Overview
Fills missing alt text with AI: scan the media library, get AI suggestions (OpenAI Vision), and save after you approve. That helps screen readers and Google Images.
icomm Image Optimizer creates WebP/AVIF versions and serves them with modern delivery using <picture> tags in the content, so browsers receive a more efficient format without changing the site's editing experience.
The engine is built for strong compatibility with dynamic content, Elementor, and WordPress responsive images, including support for srcset, sizes, and page “hero” images.

- AI Alt: find images without alt in the media library, suggest text with AI, and save after approval. Uses your own OpenAI API key (pay as you go).
- Automatic WebP/AVIF generation on upload (per settings).
- Modern content delivery via <picture>, aligned with responsive images.
- Bulk Optimize for existing media with clear statuses and an organized process.

- Licensing, limited demo (5 images per domain), purchase on icomm.market, and automatic updates.

FAQ
What is AI Alt?
The plugin finds images in the media library with no alt text, suggests short alt with OpenAI Vision, and saves only after you approve. You use your own OpenAI API key (pay as you go). A ChatGPT Plus subscription is not an API key.
How does delivery via <picture> work?
The plugin adds a modern delivery layer for images in content: the browser automatically chooses the appropriate format (WebP/AVIF) when supported, while staying aligned with the WordPress responsive images mechanism.
Can I run optimization on existing media?
Yes. Bulk Optimize lets you go through the media library and create modern versions in an organized way, with a progress view and clear results.
Can I restore originals?
Yes. There is a “Restore originals” screen that lets you revert to originals at any time.
How much can I try without a license?
Up to 5 successful free image optimizations per domain (stored on the license server). Scan and settings stay open; continued processing requires a PRO license.
