Trust is the foundation of creativity. People create more freely, share more confidently, and collaborate more openly when they know the platform they’re using is built with their safety in mind. At Picsart, trust and safety aren’t an afterthought or a background process – they’re core to how the platform operates every single day. Since our inception 14 years ago, Picsart has operated with these core principles designed to protect our community while fostering creativity and innovation.
A layered approach to keeping the platform safe
No single solution can protect a global platform on its own. That’s why Picsart uses a layered trust and safety system combining proprietary AI technology with experienced human judgment. Automated systems continuously scan and flag potentially harmful content, providing the speed and scale essential for a platform used by hundreds of millions worldwide. But technology alone isn’t enough. Behind every effective system is a team of highly-trained human moderators who bring cultural awareness, policy expertise, and nuance to decisions that require context and care. Creative content often lives in gray areas, and this human layer ensures enforcement remains fair, thoughtful, and aligned with the spirit of the platform.
Clear rules enable foster community participation
Strong trust and safety systems depend on clarity. Picsart’s Community Guidelines outline what’s allowed, what isn’t and why addressing abusive behavior, exploitation, graphic material, and illegal activity is paramount. These rules apply to everyone, and consistent enforcement builds trust by showing that safety standards are shared and upheld across the platform. Alongside automated systems and moderation teams, Picsart empowers users with tools to report inappropriate content or behavior, reinforcing that everyone has a role in maintaining a positive environment.
Safety is an ongoing commitment
Trust and safety are not static. As creative trends evolve and communities grow, safety practices must evolve alongside them. Policies are reviewed, systems are refined, and teams continuously adapt to emerging challenges. This ongoing work reflects a long-term commitment rather than a reactive stance – building systems that improve over time, learning from experience, and staying accountable to the community’s needs.
We stand behind our policies
Behind every review and decision is a team of experienced trust and safety professionals doing meticulous, purposeful work. Though their efforts happen behind the scenes, they’re essential to creating the safe, supportive environment that enables creative collaboration across the platform.
Trust is built through consistency and care
Trust is earned through consistent action – when policies are clear, enforcement is fair, and safety is treated as a shared priority. By combining smart technology, human expertise, transparent guidelines, and community participation, Picsart continues to strengthen the systems that protect its users. This approach reflects a belief that creativity and safety are not opposing forces, but partners. As the platform grows, that commitment remains steady, because when people feel safe, creativity has room to grow—and that’s what makes a creative community truly thrive.
