About Pixsy

The company was co-founded by Daniel Foster and Torsten Rüter. Its CEO, Kain Jones, leads operations aimed at enhancing copyright enforcement for visual creators.Pixsy offers a comprehensive suite of image monitoring and copyright enforcement services designed to protect the intellectual property of photographers and visual creatives. Their core product enables users to track the online usage of their images through advanced image scanning technology, detecting unauthorized use across the internet. By utilizing a combination of AI and manual review, Pixsy provides users with management tools to take action against these infringements, including sending takedown notices and filing claims for compensation. The platform serves a diverse clientele, encompassing over 200,000 photographers, designers, and media companies from more than 120 countries, facilitating control over how their work is used.Pixsy generates revenue through a subscription-based model, offering monitoring services where users can initially monitor up to 500 images for free. For those requiring additional coverage, Pixsy provides tiered pricing plans that allow clients to monitor more images for a monthly fee. Revenue is also derived from the resolution of copyright infringement cases, with the company charging a fee only when compensation is successfully recovered—typically retaining 50% of the amount collected.

The company is also looking to expand its operations into new markets, particularly targeting regions in Asia and South America by the end of 2023.
