Shutterstock Introduces New Workflow Applications, Data-Enabled Features and Flexible Subscriptions To Transform The Customer Creative Journey
NEW YORK, Oct. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

-- Shutterstock launches two workflow applications for Enterprise customers, 
Music Match Tool, and a new eCommerce mixed-asset subscription, FLEX 25, that 
helps customers discover, plan and collaborate faster in their creative journey 

Shutterstock, Inc.  (https://www.shutterstock.com/ ) (NYSE: SSTK), a leading 
global creative platform offering full-service solutions, high-quality content, 
and applications for brands, businesses and media companies, today announced 
the launch of two new applications for Enterprise: Catalog and Plan, Music 
Match Tool, and a new eCommerce mixed-asset subscription, FLEX 25 as part of 
its Quarterly Product Update. These new product launches represent meaningful 
progress towards Shutterstock's three strategic pillars: workflow innovation, 
fresh and relevant content, and data and insights to drive performance.

Catalog and Plan applications form the beginnings of Shutterstock's Creative 
Flow, a suite of applications powered by creative insights designed to enhance 
creativity, encourage collaboration and allow customers – from small businesses 
to global enterprise – to create with confidence. 

The Catalog application allows Enterprise customers to centralize access to 
content anytime, and anywhere. With Catalog, customers can tag, organize, 
comment on and approve content together, as well as share content across 
departments, companies, and time zones. 

The Plan application is a single content plan and calendar for teams and 
clients to access, fostering real-time collaboration. Plan enables quick-access 
to collections of content, keeping teams organized, on the same page, and 
confident in what they're creating.  

In addition to workflow applications, Shutterstock continues to invest in 
making it easier for customers to find the content they need, faster. 
Enterprise customers searching for music for film and media projects can now 
access Music Match Tool, an AI-powered search feature that allows customers to 
find the perfect song based on a song they already know. Searching for music 
can take hours of interacting with text filters to find the sound a creator 
imagines. With this new search feature, you can find the right music for every 
project, in minutes.

Shutterstock also announced the launch of a new flexible subscription for 
eCommerce customers, FLEX 25. Building on the success of FLEX Premium launched 
in September 2021, and Shutterstock FLEX announced in April 2021, FLEX 25 
allows individual creators to source high-quality, affordable imagery, video 
and music, in one comprehensive subscription. 

"With this Quarterly Product Update, the introduction of Catalog, Plan, Music 
Match Tool and FLEX 25 is part of Shutterstock's evolution as a true creative 
partner that provides more than just content," said Stan Pavlovsky, Chief 
Executive Officer at Shutterstock. "More than two thirds of Shutterstock's 
customers use our content for marketing materials, and more than half of our 
customers utilize our assets for social media and digital advertising. Creating 
content has never been more important, and we are making significant 
investments in workflow and insights to make the creative process from 
start-to-finish accessible, and more impactful."
