Creative Commons Platforms

creativecommons.org/about/platform/

Over 1 billion CC-licensed works exist across millions of websites. The majority are hosted on
content platforms that provide CC license options for their users.

CC platforms make it easy for users to discover and collaborate on images, video, music,
research and educational texts. This page highlights some of the best known platforms
for sharing CC content. Content on these platforms is searchable and shareable across
the web thanks to CC licenses.

Enabling the CC license suite for your users
We work to transform content platforms into vibrant, creative spaces powered by users.
Creative Commons Integration, from A to Z is a toolkit for platforms that want to address
the increasing user demand for sharing content under CC licenses. The toolkit covers
everything a platform needs to add the CC license suite, including aligning terms of
service, integrating CC licenses into the user interface, and clearly communicating about
the different license options for users. The toolkit is free for anyone to implement;
please use it as an onboarding tool and contact us with any questions.

Content collaborations: light up the Commons

3/4
For Creative Commons, the global
commons is a platform for cooperation.
The size of the commons is not as
important as how the works it contains
are shared and used. Adding the CC
license suite is just the first step in joining
a vast global network of creators,
companies, and institutions who are
working to build context, gratitude, and
other mechanisms for collaboration into
the commons. We work with platforms
who share our values to design tools and
services that light up this universe of
content and creators. Part of this is
working to increase cross-platform
mobility of content; another part is
tracking growth and use of the content
itself and reporting on major trends in our
annual State of the Commons report. In
addition to growth of content and users,
what is your platform seeking to do and
how can CC help you do it? Please get in
touch if you are interested in any of the
following:

Improved search, curation,


metatagging, and content analytics to better support creators and users of the
commons.
Providing data to be featured in our annual State of the Commons report.
Development of tools and services that build context, gratitude, and other
mechanisms for collaboration into the commons.
Salons and related events exploring the topics of gratitude, cooperation, and its
expression in social networks.
Other collaborations that facilitate greater cooperation and engagement in the
commons.
