Ready for your review
Write useful image context. Alt text does not guarantee image-search placement.
One part of a stronger storefront.
Alt text supports product context. Lumi does not guarantee rankings, traffic, or accessibility compliance, and image optimization also involves your theme and media delivery.
Compare plans- Content batches you start always create drafts for review. Maintain can generate selected new-product content and missing image alt text after product updates. Enabled Maintain automation can publish automatically. Turn it on only for content you want published without prior review.

A few goodquestions.
Shopify Image SEO questions, answered.
What does Lumi do for Shopify image SEO?
Lumi finds product images missing alt text and drafts descriptions for selected images using image and catalog context. You review the suggestions and publish approved updates to Shopify.
Does Lumi compress images or rename files?
This workflow updates product-image alt text. Image compression, file formats, filenames, and loading performance remain separate parts of your storefront setup.
Can I edit the image descriptions?
Yes. You can review, edit, regenerate when available, publish, or leave drafts unpublished. Content batches you start always create drafts for review. Maintain can generate selected new-product content and missing image alt text after product updates. Enabled Maintain automation can publish automatically. Turn it on only for content you want published without prior review.
Does better alt text guarantee search rankings?
No. Descriptive alt text supplies useful image context, but rankings and traffic depend on many factors. Avoid keyword stuffing and confirm every draft describes the actual image.
What does the free sample scan check?
The free catalog report reviews a limited sample of reachable public storefront pages. It is not a complete catalog audit or a full accessibility assessment.
Is alt text included on the free plan?
Yes. Free includes 100 monthly credits for product-image alt text and product-description drafts. Batch size and other capabilities depend on your plan.
