Lobster is a platform which enables brands, agencies and the media to licence visual content directly from social media users. Using pioneering AI technology, it trawls through all of the main social networks (Instagram, Flickr, Facebook, Vk, YouTube, Vimeo), along with several of the largest cloud storage providers. Billions of affordable images and videos in an instant - live, unusual and so much more authentic than stock.

Each and every day, billions of images and videos are being created which are more authentic than stock photography. But it’s time-consuming to find and source something that perfectly fits your brand, media campaign or story. That’s why they created Lobster - to do the heavy lifting for you. Lobster’s Artificial Intelligence and algorithmic engineering uses image recognition alongside with metadata to find high quality (and relevant) real-time content anywhere on the planet. Content created by regular people, just going about their day to day lives - original, unusual and genuine.
