Pexels

Free photos and stock video

FreeDesign tools, color & typepexels.com

What it is

Free stock photo and video library under a permissive licence: commercial use allowed, no attribution required, modification allowed. Video coverage is the real differentiator, with usable background clips and b-roll at no cost alongside the photo library. A free API serves both.

Why it earns a slot

The free source for a looping hero video or a product-page background clip, which Unsplash largely does not cover. The API also makes it trivial to pull realistic placeholder imagery into a prototype.

Know before you commit

You may not sell unmodified copies as prints or products, redistribute files to another stock site, use an image as a trademark, or show identifiable people in an offensive or endorsing way. Clip quality varies — check full resolution before committing.
