Additionally, Getty Images and Daylife signed a commercial agreement to create new “SmartMedia” products that will allow customers to more easily and effectively incorporate imagery on their websites.
Through this partnership, Getty Images SmartMedia products powered by Daylife will offer digital media and publishing solutions opportunities for substantial cost savings, audience generation and increased revenue. The first product, SmartGalleries, provides a comprehensive photo publishing toolset, including photo gallery pages and widgets, drawing from the award-winning editorial imagery from Getty Images.
“This partnership will merge Getty Images’ world-class content with Daylife’s technology, creating new tools for our media and publishing customers that enable them to curate and publish dynamic rich content easily and seamlessly on their websites in order to maximize traffic and advertising potential,” said Getty Images CEO and co-founder, Jonathan Klein.
“Working with Daylife is further confirmation of our continued and unstinting commitment to move the industry forward for the benefit of the changing needs of our customers.”
SmartGalleries offers the most editorially efficient way for customers to curate and publish a limitless number of photo galleries to their websites. With SmartGalleries’ intelligent image discovery, real-time autofill support, gallery curation and management tools, editors can create more galleries faster, taking full advantage of the huge range of Getty Images news, sport, entertainment and archive photography.
The product offers simple, seamless integration with existing websites, as the SmartGalleries can be tailored to match any interface or branding requirements. A fully hosted solution, SmartGalleries is a simple way to increase page views-per-visit through an enticingly visual, infinitely clickable user experience without additional IT, bandwidth, or hosting demands.
“The partnership between Getty Images and Daylife will enable our customers to stay ahead of emerging trends in real-time media, content curation, and more fluid user experiences,” said Upendra Shardanand, CEO of Daylife.
“Daylife has invested heavily in our market-leading technology platform and easy-to-use editorial tools. Together, Getty Images and Daylife will provide an even more engaging experience for our customers who now have access to Getty Images’ best-in-class photography.”
