The Service is available in four subscription tiers:

You must be at least 16 years of age to create an account and use the Service.
4. AI-Generated Content and Intellectual Property
4.1 Your Input
You retain all rights to the topics, prompts, and preferences you submit to the Service ("Input"). By submitting Input, you grant InkStantAI a limited, non-exclusive license to process your Input through our AI pipeline for the sole purpose of generating content for you.

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and payment of applicable fees, we assign to you all rights, title, and interest we may hold in the content generated by the Service ("Output"), including manuscripts, cover images, and metadata. However, you acknowledge and agree that:

- Similar or identical Output may be generated for other users who provide similar Input.
- InkStantAI makes no representations about the copyrightability or exclusivity of any Output.
- You are solely responsible for reviewing, editing, and verifying all Output before publication or commercial use.

If you intend to publish Output on Amazon KDP or any other publishing platform, you are solely responsible for:
- Complying with the platform's guidelines, including disclosing AI-generated content as required by Amazon KDP's policies
- Reviewing all content for accuracy, factual correctness, and legal compliance
- Ensuring the content does not infringe on any third-party intellectual property rights
- Meeting all publishing platform requirements for content quality and formatting
