Digital software provider CyberLink has bought online creative image solution ImageChef, Inc., provider of a unique cloud-based image producing tool that automatically generates memes and other images. The solution, which currently caters to around 10 million users, enables users to create images using a 3D text tool that inserts text into images such as billboards and road signs. These images can be produced online or using an app.

CyberLink’s purchase of ImageChef means it now offers solutions to create, edit, share and store images and videos through a single platform. The company has extended its operations away from just PCs to cloud-based platforms, smartphones and tablets. The purchase also underscores CyberLink’s expansion strategy of offering digital media solutions for all devices through a range of sales channels.

CyberLink’s consumer platform grew from initially providing the PowerDVD media player and Director Suite photo and video editing option, to what is now a “comprehensive ecosystem that meets all creative, sharing and playback needs” and includes the cloud-based DirectorZone community of around 4 million members, and the MoovieLive community which boasts 2 million members.

“We are changing the way people interact with digital media by offering all capabilities in one uniquely integrated platform,” explained CyberLink’s CTO, chairman and found, Dr. Jau Huang. “Millions of consumers worldwide trust our powerful yet very intuitive tools to express themselves with selfies and photo or video creations shared through social media every day. The addition to our award-winning portfolio of ImageChef tools to personalize memes and other images, will further enhance the digital media experience of our combined users, making it even more creative and fun to create and share photos and videos as well as enjoy entertainment at anytime, anywhere and from any device or platform.”
