What only Bloxx Pics does
- Every image link has a .json twin that tells an AI its real size, alt text and ready-made sizes before it uses the image.
- bloxx.pics/llms.txt explains the link format to any AI, so it can write the right size without a connector.
- Alt text is required on upload, so images arrive described.
- The same Bloxx account runs your website, videos, documents and booking links, so an image uploaded once is used everywhere.
