The adult industry has changed in a massive way over the last few years. Most people would agree that the new generation of independent content creators has completely reshaped what the adult industry looks like today.
Platforms such as OnlyFans, Clips4Sale, ManyVids, Fansly, and others have done more than just introduce new ways to sell content. They’ve created a model where creators can carve out their own space, control their own brands, and build meaningful revenue streams, often without any traditional studio system behind them.
But while headlines love to spotlight multimillion-dollar success stories, the broader reality for most creators is far more nuanced.
That’s exactly why we’re launching our State of the Industry Survey: to collect real, creator-focused data on what’s working, what’s not, and what creators want to see change going forward.

The creator economy—especially the creator economy—is no longer niche. It is a major global industry with millions of creators and hundreds of millions of paying subscribers. Platforms like OnlyFans now influence media, talent pipelines, advertising, payment processing, and even public policy.
