Terms of Service

1. The Service

OptimaClip is an AI-assisted tool for turning long-form video into short-form clips, including transcription-informed moment detection, caption styling, a clip editor, brand templates, team collaboration, and (where enabled) scheduling and publishing to connected third-party social platforms. Some features described on the marketing site or in documentation may be in active development and not yet fully available; we'll indicate this where applicable.

2. Accounts

You must provide accurate information when creating an account and are responsible for activity under your credentials. You must be legally able to enter a binding contract to use the Service. Team members you invite are subject to these Terms as well, and you are responsible for their conduct on your account.

3. Credits, Plans, and Billing

Paid plans are billed on a recurring monthly or annual basis through our payment processor (Stripe) and grant a fixed number of "credits" per billing period, as described on our Pricing page and in documentation. Credits are consumed by certain actions (such as AI clip planning) and do not carry a cash value, cannot be exchanged for currency, and do not roll over between billing periods unless we state otherwise in writing. Except where required by law, fees and consumed credits are non-refundable, including for a billing period in which you cancel partway through.

You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel a subscription at any time through the billing portal linked from your dashboard. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period unless stated otherwise.

4. Your Content

You retain ownership of video, audio, and other content you upload or submit to the Service ("Your Content"). You grant Hypersmarty a limited license to host, process, transcribe, analyze, and transform Your Content solely to provide the Service to you (for example, generating clips, captions, and metadata, and — where you enable it — publishing to platforms you've connected). We do not claim ownership of Your Content and do not use it to train third-party models beyond what's necessary to operate the Service.

You represent that you have the necessary rights to submit Your Content and that doing so, and using the Service to generate and publish derivative clips, does not infringe any third party's rights.

5. Connected Social Accounts

If and when you connect a third-party social media account (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, Threads, or others) for scheduling or auto-posting, you authorize OptimaClip to publish content to that account on your behalf according to the settings you configure. You are responsible for complying with each platform's own terms of service. You can disconnect a platform at any time from your dashboard, which revokes that authorization going forward.

6. API Access

API keys are personal to your account and must not be shared or published. You're responsible for all activity performed with your API keys. We may rate-limit or suspend API access that we reasonably believe is abusive, and you can revoke a key at any time from the Developer page.

7. Acceptable Use

You may not use the Service to process or publish content that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, fraudulent, or that violates a third party's rights; to attempt to disrupt or reverse-engineer the Service; or to circumvent plan limits or credit metering.

8. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The Service, including AI-generated clip picks, scores, captions, and metadata, is provided on an "as is" basis without warranties of any kind. AI-generated output can be inaccurate; you are responsible for reviewing clips before publishing them. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Hypersmarty LLC will not be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the Service.

9. Termination

You may stop using the Service and cancel your subscription at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

10. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated "Last updated" date on this page.
