AI Providers and their usage policies

The usage policies and output restrictions that govern Sortify’s AI features.

Written by Dylan Rihan

Sortify's AI Features run on models that other companies provide or host ("AI Providers"). When you use an AI Feature, section 4.4(e) of our Terms of Service requires you to follow the usage policy of the AI Provider whose model it uses, and any restrictions that AI Provider places on AI Outputs from its models. This page lists the AI Providers whose rules apply to you, their usage policies and those restrictions. They apply alongside our Terms of Service. An AI Feature may use more than one AI Provider, and we may change them, so follow the rules of every AI Provider on this page.

Rules that apply to most AI Features

Most AI Providers share the same core rules. In short, you must not:

  • use AI Outputs to train AI models. Our Terms of Service prohibit using them to develop AI models that compete with any AI Provider (section 4.4(e)), and some AI Providers prohibit using them to train any AI model at all;

  • remove or alter watermarks, labels, metadata or other provenance signals in AI Outputs, including the labels Sortify adds (section 4.4(a) of our Terms of Service); or

  • present AI Outputs as made by a person. Where an AI Provider or the law requires it, you must make clear that content is AI-generated.

Where an AI Feature creates or recreates a person's voice, section 4.4(g) of our Terms of Service also applies.

Restrictions on AI Outputs

Google

Do not use AI Outputs to develop products, services or AI models that are similar to or compete with Google's (Service Specific Terms). Do not claim that generated content was created solely by a person in order to deceive.

ElevenLabs

Do not use ElevenLabs' services or AI Outputs to develop, train, fine-tune or improve any AI model or service, or to develop products or services that compete with ElevenLabs. Do not remove, alter or conceal watermarks, metadata or other provenance signals to disguise AI-generated content.

OpenAI

Do not use AI Outputs to develop AI models that compete with OpenAI's products and services (Services Agreement). When you share or publish AI Outputs, follow the Sharing and Publication Policy, which in many cases requires you to make clear that content is AI-generated.

fal

Do not use AI Outputs to develop, fine-tune or improve products or services that compete with the model that produced them, including by training AI models, or to replicate or closely mimic the material the model was trained on (Terms of Service).

Content Guidelines, available from Bria's Legal Lobby

Do not use AI Outputs to train generative AI models. Do not offer generated images in a publicly available image bank, or remove the marking that shows they are AI-generated (Bria's Online Terms and Background Removal Terms, in its Legal Lobby).

Generation models

For image and video generation and editing, you choose the model. The table below shows who makes each model and which rules apply.
