The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The widespread adoption of AI tools led to a large volume of AI-generated content being submitted over a short period, making it difficult to match content with the needs of purchasing members. PIXTA also considered the growing demand for works photographed or created by the creators themselves, as well as the need to raise selling prices in response to higher costs for AI-generated content.
