about textBOX
every image tells a story. we tell yours.
We are textBOX. We are a London-based company + we describe images. Every image.
We specialise in writing alt text + image descriptions for publishers, universities, and every type of organisation.
​
We sat in a darkened room for a long time + designed a fiendish method for writing image descriptions. It works. Really well. It makes us happy.
We have a background in publishing and a curiosity about every subject. We like talking about your issues. And then fixing them.
You choose the images. We describe them, We help you create content that is useful, discoverable, and inclusive to every reader.
We're textBOX. We write your images. And we tell your story.
