Image Describer
Turn a picture into words. Upload an image and an AI vision model writes a caption, a detailed description, or alt text you can paste into a page.
The describer is not switched on yet. You can pick an image to preview the tool, but descriptions start when the service goes live.
To describe an image, a shrunk copy is sent to an AI service. It is not stored by orbittools.
How to use it
1. Add an image
Upload a PNG, JPG, WebP, or GIF up to 10 MB, or drop a file onto the tool.
2. Pick a style
Choose a short caption, a detailed description, or alt text for a web page.
3. Describe it
Press Describe image. Your browser shrinks the picture first, then sends it for analysis.
4. Copy and edit
Read the result, fix any detail the model got wrong, and copy it.
Common questions
Does my image leave my device?
Yes. Unlike the image to text tool on this site, this tool needs an AI vision model, which cannot run inside your browser. Your browser shrinks the image to at most 1280 pixels on the long side and sends that copy to the service. orbittools does not keep it.
What is the difference between a caption and alt text?
A caption is one short line about the scene. Alt text is written for a person who cannot see the image, so it says what the image shows and why it is on the page. Use the alt text style for the alt attribute of an image tag.
Can I trust the description?
Check it before you use it. Vision models can miss small objects, misread text, and guess at things the image does not show. The result box is editable so you can correct it.
Why does it say the describer is not switched on?
The page and the upload step work now. The AI service behind it is connected separately. Until that is done, the Describe button stays off. [VERIFY: remove this answer when the service is live.]
