The partnership allows online publishers to embed all of action press international's content into their websites, completely free of charge, which currently totals over 200 million images. It represents a significant step towards SmartFrame's mission of redefining the digital image distribution and commercial model by transforming how digital images are published, consumed, and monetized online, ultimately creating a fairer, more transparent, and more prosperous ecosystem for all.

Publishers embed SmartFrame images into their editorial content completely free of charge and in a copyright-compliant way. SmartFrame images are delivered in the highest possible resolution without affecting page load times, while providing an interactive and more engaging content experience to the end user, increasing dwell times through interactive features such as full-screen viewing and the company's proprietary Hyper Zoom technology.
Publishers also gain new image data and insights through SmartFrame's data and analytics panel, along with new incremental revenue streams from occasional contextually targeted advertising served within these images. The ads are targeted to the metadata of the photo, the context of the page, and the viewer's location and device, which keeps advertising relevant to the content the viewer is consuming, thus increasing engagement for the advertising brands.
Thanks to its existing partnerships with image agencies around the world, today's announcement brings the total number of SmartFrame images now available to publishers to embed for free to over 620 million.
