TIA: Text in Image AccessibilityBeta

Documentation

Use TIA from your own tools

The checker on the home page is one way in. You can also send images to TIA over HTTP, or let an AI assistant call it through MCP. All three return the same report.

Which one should I use?

The basics

  • No sign-in and no API key. TIA is a free beta, so please keep request volume modest.
  • Images can be PNG, JPEG, or WebP, up to about 4 MB when you upload them. The MCP server also takes an image URL, up to 12 MB.
  • Choose WCAG level AA (the usual target) or AAA (stricter).
  • The MCP tool is check_image_contrast. It takes an image URL or base64 data and returns the same JSON as the API.
  • Results are an automated aid, not legal advice or a certification of conformance. Read where TIA can be wrong before you rely on one.
