Envato

Global leader in creative digital asset marketplaces, with one of the largest libraries of templates, themes, and media files available online

Envato is an Australian-based creative marketplace company founded in 2006, best known for its flagship platforms Envato Market (formerly ThemeForest, CodeCanyon, VideoHive, etc.) and Envato Elements. The company serves millions of creative professionals, developers, and businesses worldwide by providing access to an enormous library of digital assets including website themes, plugins, stock photos, video footage, music, and graphic templates. Envato Elements operates as an all-you-can-download subscription service, while Envato Market allows individual item purchases from a community of independent creators. Envato occupies a dominant position in the creative digital asset marketplace space, competing with platforms like Creative Market, Shutterstock, and Adobe Stock. Its community-driven model has attracted hundreds of thousands of independent authors who sell their work through the platform, creating a vast and diverse catalog. The company has reported processing billions of dollars in author earnings over its lifetime, underscoring its scale and economic significance to the global creative community. While Envato is not a traditional AdTech company, it intersects with the advertising and marketing technology ecosystem by supplying creative assets — ad templates, landing page designs, motion graphics, and promotional materials — that power digital marketing campaigns. Agencies, in-house marketing teams, and freelancers rely heavily on Envato's libraries to produce advertising and branded content efficiently and cost-effectively.
