fal.ai (model API hub)
fal's terms say you own your inputs but don't say who owns outputs, and fal doesn't promise outputs come with any rights. Each hosted model's own terms can also apply.
Plan by plan
API (pay as you go)
Depends- Who owns the output
- Not stated (fal's terms only say you own your inputs)
- Revenue cap
- none stated by fal
- Attribution or watermark
- none stated by fal
- Indemnity
- You indemnify fal
Third-party models may carry their own terms. You can't use outputs to train a competing model or to mimic a model's training data.
Owning the output under a tool's terms isn't the same as holding copyright in it. Can you copyright AI art, music and video? →
