Stock content company Shutterstock, Inc. announced a new integration with the WordPress platform. The plugin, which is available in 21 languages, gives users access to 350+ million licensed images from within WordPress and automatically suggests relevant visuals based on a Smart Image Recommendations tool developed by Shutterstock. The WordPress plugin provides Smart Image Recommendations that will automatically suggest relevant images based on the entered text. Users have the option to explore images in the Shutterstock library or upload an image from local files or WordPress Media Library.

“Shutterstock’s new integration with WordPress is a glimpse into our future,” said Stan Pavlovsky, Chief Executive Officer at Shutterstock. “It’s a great example of how we are leveraging our computer vision technology and API to quickly suggest relevant content to our users. Through this partnership, our goal is to accelerate workflows and empower brands to inspire their audiences with engaging and compelling visual stories.”
