Public advocacy center
SaveTheCreators' Hub gathers the public evidence base for creator advocacy: 521 sourced items across 43 creative disciplines, live pathways into the research, and advocacy projects focused on collective action. Distributed Creatives' broader technology infrastructure stays on its own site, so this space can stay centered on the movement.

On SaveTheCreators, the work is public and movement-facing: evidence, creator-rights education, partner discovery, and advocacy projects that help creators understand the crisis and act together.
Distributed Creatives is the nonprofit umbrella behind the project. Its technology products and developer documentation belong there, where people looking for that work can find it without blurring this advocacy space. The Hub can point to Distributed Creatives when needed, while keeping SaveTheCreators focused on creator advocacy.

Current advocacy campaigns, research efforts, and coalition work connected to creator rights, kept separate from Distributed Creatives' technology work.
Every evidence item maps to one of five systemic challenge areas. These pillars frame the advocacy work that matters most.
Micro-payments, opaque splits, and exploitative contract terms that keep creators from earning a living.
Burnout, lack of healthcare, mental health crises, and the human cost of creative gig work.
Algorithmic gatekeeping, pay-to-play promotion, and monopoly control over who gets seen.
Platform lock-in, format obsolescence, and the risk of losing creative work when services shut down.
Online abuse, content theft, deepfakes, and the failure of platforms to protect creators.

No one else aggregates creative advocacy evidence this way. Policy organizations focus on a single industry. Unions represent one discipline. News coverage is scattered. The Hub brings it all together — 521 sourced evidence items spanning 43 creative disciplines — so that advocates, researchers, and creators themselves can see the full picture.
Every statistic on this page is derived directly from documented, sourced evidence. Nothing is estimated or invented. Each evidence item links back to its original reporting.
Creators across every discipline face systemic challenges that no single organization can fix alone. Sign the declaration, explore the evidence, and help build a better future for creative work.
