UGC IMAGES AND VIDEOS. REINVENTED. POWERED BY AI.
CURATE AND LICENSE VISUAL CONTENT FROM COMMUNITIES ON 10 SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS.
We don't just give you access to great UGC: our AI filters discover the most relevant and authentic images and videos, rank the quality and match your project's style.
Social media users connect their accounts, opt in for licensing, protect their rights, and get paid. We send 75% commission, tag the images and provide licensing – so everything's taken care of.
Our AI-driven search and filters help you find exactly matching images beyond social tags. Surface people, diversity, objects, colours, moods, locations and more.
Think UGC is blurry and out-of-focus? Not on Lobster. We automatically curate the best socially-sourced content. Our algorithms rank and filter content by purpose.
Know what you want when 'you see it'? Then give our image search tool a try. No need to translate a vision into keywords.
Quality counts. Automatically increase any image's resolution up to 4x after licensing – allowing you to use Instagram images for digital or print campaign.
Quickly find content to suit your brand or campaign aesthetic with our self-learning Style Matcher. Just upload a sample of 10 photos or a mood board.
Our royalty-free licences are secured in blockchain-based smart contracts: and making everyone's rights and image use totally transparent.
There are some talented social media photographers out there. Lobster helps you ethically source images for work and reward the community.
See what curious content creators are coming up with – and what the rest of us are enjoying.
A low-friction way to locate and license the more authentic visuals being shared on social media platforms (versus using tired stock photography).
