Patreon is cutting 93 jobs — about 20% of its staff — as CEO Jack Conte pushes for adaptation in a rapidly evolving tech landscape, especially with AI reshaping how creators and companies operate. The layoffs come alongside a flatter org structure and team reorganization, with severance including 16 weeks pay plus one extra week per year of service, healthcare through year-end, and $1,500 for a new laptop. The move follows a new partnership with Cloudflare to combat AI bots scraping creator content without permission, underscoring growing industry concerns. This isn’t the first restructuring for Patreon, which also cut 17% of staff and shuttered offices in Berlin and Dublin in 2022.
