Convert SVG diagrams to described Markdown

A diagram is invisible to search and screen readers until it is described. Scan Hero rasterises an SVG, describes it with Claude Vision, and extracts every <text> label into a list — giving you both a narrative description and the raw labels.

The output is ideal for accessibility documentation, alt-text generation, and making architecture diagrams searchable.

Input: SVG (.svg)Output: Markdown (.md)

Example: SVG diagrams → description + labels

SVGs are rasterised and described by Claude Vision, with all <text> labels extracted and listed—perfect for accessibility documentation.

Sample output

# Architecture Diagram

The diagram shows a three-tier architecture with a load balancer at the top...

**SVG text labels:**
- Load Balancer
- Web Server 1
- Web Server 2
- Database Primary
- Database Replica
Tip: Both the visual description and extracted text labels are included in the output.
