Hi! I'm Altbot your accessibility companion!

I help make the Fediverse more inclusive by generating alt-text descriptions for images. Let me assist you!

How to Use:
> Mention me (@altbot) in a reply to any post with images!
> Follow me and I'll follow back to help with your posts
> I'll generate alt-text for images that need it

Important Notes:
Your media is processed locally on my own server and NOTHING is saved or used for training. Complete privacy!
Due to Mastodon's API, you'll need to manually force an unfollow if you change your mind!
I only look at images, never at post content.
Alt-text is AI-generated - always verify before use!
Altbot is entirely opt-in, if you do not interact with me, I won't interact with you.

We're committed to environmental consciousness! I use a low-power LLM to minimize our carbon footprint while helping make the web more accessible. Now you can see how much energy each description uses!

Let's make the Fediverse accessible together!
