This page explains the ownership rules in the Terms in plain words. Where they differ, the Terms apply.
Studio results
The Terms say that, as between you and us, you own the images, videos and audio you generate, to the extent the law allows, and we assign to you any rights we have in them.
"As between you and us" means we do not claim your results. It does not settle rights other people may have in something that appears in a result, such as a real person's likeness or a brand's trademark.
Whether you may use a result in paid work is a separate rule; see Commercial use.
Prompts from the prompt tools
A prompt the tools write for you is text you paste into another AI tool. What you then make in ChatGPT, Midjourney, Veo or any other tool is governed by that tool's own terms, not ours.
Your uploads and prompts
You keep every right you have in the photos, files, ideas and prompts you submit. To run the service, you give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to:
- store and process them,
- send them to the gateways and model providers that run your request,
- show a result publicly if you share it to the gallery, until you make it private.
That license is only for running your requests and operating the service. We do not use your uploads, prompts or results to train AI models; see Do you train on my images.
You also promise that you have the rights and permissions for everything you upload. For photos of people, that means the person's permission; see What you can create.
Copyright in AI results is unsettled
The law on AI-generated work is still unsettled, and a result may not be protected by copyright. In practice:
- you may not be able to stop someone else from copying a result,
- other people can get similar results from similar prompts,
- you are responsible for how you use your results, including checking that they do not infringe anyone's rights.
If a result matters to your business, such as a logo, get legal advice where you live.
Our side
Each model provider's content policy also applies to results from its models. The site, its code, design, name and logo stay ours; using the service does not give you rights in them beyond using it.
