PicApp Opens its API

Filed under General

One of the exciting callings of a service such as PicApp is to go beyond the site. To integrate with partners & create different solutions that meet specific user needs.

To enable us to do just that PicApp had developed an API.

Some of you are probably already using it through our Wordpress Plug-in, which is live on WP directory. Others might use it through our partners’ integrated solutions.

We see a great value in our API, it enables you to integrate PicApp search & publish into your platform, to create various gadgets (sideshows & others), or anything you might think of that others didn’t.
That’s why we want to invite anyone who thinks he/she can make valuable use of our API in his/her platforms or create a plug-in for other bloggers to use, to contact us.

If you’re interested in participating in our API program, please send an email to: discover [at] picapp [dot] com

Picapp’s innovation on JPost

Eyal and I recently talked with Meredith Price Levitt from the Jerusalem Post about Picapp, its origin, value and how we see it developing further.
“… How does Picapp provide more than 20 million high-end copyrighted files from companies like Getty Images and Corbis and license them at no cost to themselves or bloggers?
Therein lies the revolutionary part. By exchanging content for advertising space, they are essentially paying for the images through on-line advertising. Instead of giving publishers and bloggers an image that can be stolen or misused, Picapp provides a link that allows users to paste the image of their choice - (with an advertisement underneath) - into their page or blog. Through this link, Picapp tracks images that are being used on-line and receives revenue from the advertising rather than the bloggers or publishers having to pay for expensive rights.”
