Company Profile

Founded in 2002, PicScout™ is an information company that commands the world's largest index of fingerprinted and owner identified images. From this asset base, PicScout enables clients to both protect and promote image usage across digital platforms and devices by using the company’s proprietary and highly scalable image recognition fingerprinting technology.


As the global leader in image tracking, enabler of client image monetization services, and the standard for image credit, PicScout created the image copyright protection marketplace through its widely used ImageTracker™ product and is now leading the way for image commerce to become a legitimate Internet economy.


Getty Images, a leading creator and distributor of visual content and other media, acquired PicScout in April of 2011. The acquisition was driven by the opportunity to grow and expand PicScout's business to the benefit of contributors, customers and the industry as a whole.
