The ADA Defender: Automating Accessibility Compliance with AI Bud
In 2024, web accessibility lawsuits hit record highs. If your client’s website isn’t ADA or WCAG compliant, you are exposing them to legal risk. The most common violation? Missing Alt Text. Images without descriptions are invisible to screen readers used by the visually impaired. Fixing this manually on a 500-page site is a nightmare. You have to open every image, look at it, and type a description. It takes weeks. AI Bud automates this compliance. By using its Image-to-Text capabilities, it can scan your entire media library and generate descriptive, context-aware Alt Text for thousands of images in minutes. In this review, we will explore how this plugin acts as your first line of defense against accessibility lawsuits.
