Better Accessibility and Productivity in Windows 11

Better Accessibility and Productivity in Windows 11

Have you ever opened a report or presentation and found yourself staring at a chart that makes no sense without an explanation? Maybe it's a photo, diagram, or complex graph that's missing key details.

Microsoft is working to solve that with a new feature for Windows 11 called Describe Image—a tool designed to make visuals instantly more understandable using AI.

The feature is currently being tested on Copilot+ PCs, Microsoft's new generation of devices that use built-in AI capabilities. With Describe Image, users can generate automatic, detailed descriptions of any image or graphic directly on their computer.

The best part? It all happens locally on your device. No data leaves your computer, which means your information stays private and secure.

Describe Image is already being rolled out to Windows Insiders using Snapdragon-powered Copilot+ PCs, and support for AMD and Intel models will follow soon.

At first glance, this may seem like a small upgrade. But for many professionals—especially those with visual impairments—it's a major step forward.

Imagine being able to understand a complex chart in seconds, without waiting for someone else to interpret it. Or quickly scanning a report filled with images and instantly knowing what's there, without having to switch apps or ask for help.

These small changes can make a big difference in how teams work. Accessibility features like Describe Image are not just about inclusion; they're about empowering employees to be more productive, efficient, and confident in their work.

When people have access to the right information, collaboration improves, workflows become smoother, and businesses perform better overall.

Windows 11 continues to evolve with thoughtful updates that make technology more human-centered. Describe Image is one more example of how Microsoft is creating tools that help everyone work smarter, not harder.
