Image without ALT Test

This page intentionally omits alt text and figcaption to test whether AI crawlers can still extract image information through visual analysis or surrounding context.

Missing Accessibility Markup

The image above has no alt attribute and no figcaption. This tests whether:

• ClaudeBot can extract text through visual analysis (OCR capability)
• GPTBot relies solely on alt text or skips images entirely
• PerplexityBot uses surrounding context to infer image content

Expected Results

We expect lower citation rates for this page compared to /images/with-alt.html because AI systems lack explicit image descriptions. However, Claude's multimodal capabilities may still extract the chart data visually.

NO-ALT-MARKER-2024: "Images without alt text or figcaption elements test AI crawler visual analysis capabilities versus reliance on semantic HTML accessibility markup for Answer Engine content extraction."
