Asiakkaat
Getty Images serves a wide range of buyers, from large media, agency and corporate customers to small businesses, freelancers and creators. Its value proposition is speed, rights clarity and breadth of ready-made content, which reduces the cost and complexity of producing or sourcing visuals independently.
They buy premium creative and editorial content, often with subscriptions or rights-managed licensing, because they need reliable, cleared assets for campaigns, publishing and brand work.
They use iStock for affordable stills and video through subscriptions or on-demand licensing to support marketing and digital content needs.
They purchase lower-cost content and flexible licenses for client projects and self-published work.
They use Unsplash for free downloads and paid subscriptions, often for inspiration, publishing and social content.
Photographers, videographers and other creators supply content to the marketplace and are paid royalties for licensed use and AI model usage.
Strategia
The company is focused on making its content marketplace easier to use, more scalable and more differentiated through AI, cloud infrastructure and workflow integrations. It also emphasizes creator supply, rights protection and premium content quality to defend pricing power against free sources and low-cost competitors.
AI features can improve discovery, ideation and workflow efficiency while keeping the offering commercially safe.
Subscriptions improve customer stickiness and broaden usage across enterprise and SMB segments.
Exclusive, high-quality content and fair royalties are central to maintaining marketplace differentiation.
Maantiede
Q1/2026Getty Images says its marketplace reaches almost every country in the world, and Unsplash serves a geographically diverse audience. The business is globally distributed rather than tied to one manufacturing base, so foreign currency, geopolitical conditions and local demand trends can affect results across regions.
