Artlist is an Israel-based creative technology company that specializes in royalty-free digital content,[1] and is the owner of several video and image editing platforms.[2]

History[edit]

Artlist was founded in Israel in 2016 by Ira Belsky, Itzik Elbaz, Eyal Raz and Assaf Ayalon[3] as a royalty-free music site called Artlist.io that originally targeted independent filmmakers looking to license music cheaply.[4][5]

The company expanded its catalog with the launch of the Artgrid stock footage platform in 2019[6] and a sound effects subscription service.[7][8]

Elephant Partners made an initial investment in 2018[9] before Artlist raised $48M led by the investment company KKR in February 2020.[10][11] In December 2020 the company acquired the Atlanta-based company Motion Array for $65M.[12] After the Motion Array acquisition, Artlist reportedly had a library of over 800,000 digital assets.[13][14]

In May 2021, Artlist joined the independent music publisher's agency IMPEL.[15] Artlist Original produces original songs for licensing on the Artlist platforms.[16][17]

In 2021, Artlist announced the acquisition of FXhome, a Norwich-based software company that specializes in software and plugins for video and image editing, to become its software division.[18]

Products[edit]

Motion Array[edit]

Motion Array was founded in 2013 as an all in one subscription platform for digital media assets.[19] The company was acquired by Artlist for $65M in December 2020.[20][21] The acquisition helped the company reach a combined subscriber base of over six million.[22][23]

Artgrid[edit]

Artgrid, a platform for licensing stock footage where subscribers are allowed unlimited downloads of stock video assets.[24][25][26][27]

FXhome[edit]

FXHome was founded in 2001 as an effort to create Star Wars lightsaber effects for a home movie. The subscription service offers content creators visual effects software.[28][29] FXhome had 6.5 million subscribers when it was acquired by Artlist in 2021.[30][19]
