Is GenAlt - Generate AI Alternate Text safe?
GenAlt sends user-selected image URLs to Azure Computer Vision and caches generated captions in Supabase.
When you use its context-menu captioning actions, the service worker reads the clicked image URL and posts it to Azure Computer Vision for image analysis and OCR. It also stores the image URL with the generated caption and usage fields in a Supabase table so captions can be reused.
