Shutterstock is the first AI image generator on the market that compensates contributors for their roles in the generative AI process. Through the Shutterstock Contributor Fund, we directly compensate Shutterstock contributors when their content is used in the development of generative models. The Shutterstock Contributor Fund will also pay ongoing royalties to contributors for future revenue associated with AI-generated content which has been generated and licensed directly on the Shutterstock platform. This is part of our commitment to responsible AI. For more information see this page on our Contributor knowledge base.
If you generate content using Shutterstock’s AI-generated content capabilities, this content may be made available for other customers to license, as well. Enterprise customers can reach out to their account representative to inquire about securing exclusive rights for the image like you can do for traditional stock images on enterprise plans.

Please notify us of any inappropriate or offensive content by clicking the Feedback button and providing details of your experience.
