Driving a Creator-First Future
Creators are the foundation of the open internet. Creators are the soul of the open internet. Creators are the future of the open internet. Join us in support of a #CreatorFirstFuture.
Our Commitment
As search algorithms and generative AI rapidly evolve, Mediavine recognizes the need to help shape the future of new technologies, in the process protecting the publishing community and the open internet.
We are as committed as we were on day one to supporting creators.
Why? Because without creators, there is no open internet. There is no content to train the models that power AI. There is no internet at all.
That sounds bleak, but only if we do nothing.
The path to a free, open internet and a prosperous future for content creators begins here.

Meet the Creators
Take Action
As individuals, it’s easy to feel like our voices will go unheard by our representatives, but when we come together, we become a collective voice which can’t be ignored.
Bills currently making their way through the United States Congress, like HB 7913, have the potential to protect creators from the harms of generative AI.
The Brennan Center for Justice maintains an artificial intelligence legislation tracker so you can learn about other bills being discussed and introduced.
Bills like these are a starting point to urge Senators and Representatives interested in generative AI to sponsor or co-sponsor their own bills to protect creators.
Write letters, send emails and make phone calls to your Senators and Representatives letting them know where you stand on these issues.
Tools like Democracy.io make it easy to find and reach your Congressional representatives.
While we know publishers around the world have been impacted by changes to Search and the introduction of generative AI, the first stage of the information we’re providing here focuses on the United States. We will continue to update this section, bringing actionable tips to our international publishers as we can.
We're in this together
No one truly knows what the future will look like with generative AI and Search.
What we do know is that the open internet needs us — creators.
What we’re doing here goes beyond the success of any one site or even Mediavine as a company. The internet as we know it is at stake.
We are here to advocate — for you and with you — to ensure that independent creators can continue to thrive.
We encourage you to share about these efforts using the hashtag #CreatorFirstFuture and stay tuned for more ways to get involved!
