Brendon Grunewald, CEO of Moovly said, “This is an important integration for Moovly, it brings a vast collection of assets to our users and in doing so makes Moovly the undisputed market leader and gives credibility to Moovly’s offering in the market. We look forward to working with Shutterstock to provide the most intuitive, cost effective means for anyone to tell their story, whether that is to promote a product or market to new audiences."

“Moovly understands that the ever increasing consumption of video on social platforms is fueling a growing expectation from marketers and businesses to produce high-quality visual stories within shorter timeframes,” said Alexander Reynolds, Senior Director of Business Development at Shutterstock. “The integration of Shutterstock’s API empowers users to quickly and easily search and license millions of images, video, and music tracks, to create compelling video content, without leaving the Moovly Studio platform”.
