Automation applies your settings to new images as you add products, so you don't have to run optimization manually each time. There are two switches on the Automation page:
Optimize new images — compresses and squares new images (and renames them per your template).
Add alt text to new images — applies your alt text templates.
Both are off by default and take effect after you save. Automation is available on paid plans. Your existing catalogue isn't re-processed — the Automation page offers a one-click catch-up run. When you reach your plan's limit, auto-optimization pauses instead of charging you.
