1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. Account Registration and Security

To access the Service, you must create an account by providing accurate, current, and complete information. You may register using email and password or through Google Sign-In. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at support@scriptcut.io of any unauthorized use of your account.

3. Service Description and License

ScriptCut is a browser-based application that enables users to upload, review, select, and organize interview transcripts for video production workflows. The Service includes features such as transcript parsing, sentence selection, speaker role assignment, drag-and-drop reordering, branded PDF and text export, and AI-powered features (as described in Section 8).

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your internal business or personal purposes. The Service is licensed, not sold. We reserve all rights not expressly granted.

4. Subscription Plans, Billing, and Auto-Renewal

ScriptCut offers multiple subscription tiers (Free, Starter, and Pro AI) with varying features and pricing as described on our website. Paid subscriptions are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis through our payment processor, Stripe.

Auto-Renewal Disclosure

Your paid subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current rate unless you cancel before the renewal date. For monthly subscriptions, this means your subscription renews each month. For annual subscriptions, this means your subscription renews each year.

You authorize us to charge the payment method on file for all recurring fees. We will send you a reminder before annual renewals. You may cancel your subscription at any time through the Service's Settings panel — cancellation is available online, making it as easy to cancel as it was to subscribe.

Price Changes

We may change subscription pricing upon at least 30 days' notice. Price changes take effect at the start of your next billing cycle after the notice. Your continued use of the Service after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.

5. Free Tier and Trials

The Free tier provides limited access to the Service (up to 3 projects, no exports, no AI features). We may offer a free trial of the Pro AI tier for a limited period, which requires a valid payment method. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid subscription. Each user is entitled to one free trial only.

6. Cancellation and Refunds

You may cancel your subscription at any time through Settings within the Service. Upon cancellation, your subscription remains active until the end of your current billing period. You will not be charged for subsequent periods. Downgrading from a paid plan to the Free tier takes effect at the end of your current billing period.

Because the Service provides immediate access to digital content upon subscription, all fees are non-refundable except where required by applicable law. If you believe you are entitled to a refund, contact us at support@scriptcut.io.

7. Your Content

You retain all ownership rights in the content you upload to the Service ("Your Content"), including transcripts, project data, notes, and any other materials. By uploading Your Content, you grant Visioneers a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to host, store, process, and display Your Content solely as necessary to provide and improve the Service. This license terminates when you delete Your Content or your account.

You represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights and permissions to upload and use Your Content with the Service, and that Your Content does not infringe any third party's intellectual property or other rights.

8. AI-Powered Features

Certain features of the Service (AI Cleanup, AI Select, AI Arrange) use third-party artificial intelligence technology provided by Anthropic, PBC via its commercial API. By using these features, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

17. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Informal Resolution

Before initiating any formal dispute proceeding, you agree to contact us at support@scriptcut.io and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

Binding Arbitration

If the dispute is not resolved informally, you and Visioneers agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall take place in Los Angeles County, California, or at another mutually agreed location. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Class Action Waiver

You and Visioneers agree that any arbitration or court proceeding shall be conducted on an individual basis only and not as a class, consolidated, or representative action. If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void.

Opt-Out

You may opt out of this arbitration provision by sending written notice to support@scriptcut.io within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. The opt-out notice must include your name, account email, and a clear statement that you decline arbitration.

Exceptions

Either party may bring claims in small claims court if eligible. Either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights.

If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Service and cancel your account.

Severability: If any provision is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.

No waiver: Our failure to enforce any right or provision does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
