These terms govern your use of Raylight, the motion design video tool available at raylight.app (the "Service"), operated by Raylight ("we", "us"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy.
Eligibility and accounts
You must be at least 13 years old to use Raylight. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you need a parent or guardian's permission. You are responsible for your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Keep your login secure and tell us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access.
Your content
You own the content you create in Raylight: your projects, uploads, and exported videos. You can use your exports commercially with no attribution required, except that exports made on the free plan include a small "Made in Raylight" credit.
So we can operate the Service, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, store, process, render, and display your content as needed to provide the Service, including rendering your exports on cloud infrastructure. This license exists only to run the product. We do not claim ownership of your work and we do not use it to train AI models.
You are responsible for the content you upload. You must have the rights to any media you bring into Raylight, and you must not upload content that infringes someone else's intellectual property, violates the law, or contains malware.
Sharing, publishing, and templates
If you publish a share link, embed, or community template, that content becomes publicly accessible to anyone with the link, and other users may remix templates you publish. Only publish what you are comfortable making public. You can unpublish shared content at any time, though copies others have already remixed remain theirs.
Subscriptions and billing
Paid plans are billed through Stripe on a monthly or annual basis and renew automatically until cancelled. You can cancel at any time, and your plan remains active through the end of the current billing period. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable, though you can always reach out and we will try to be reasonable. We may change pricing or plan features with advance notice; changes take effect at your next renewal.
Creator and referral program
Payouts, referral commissions, and paid templates are governed by the separate Creator Program Terms, which apply in addition to these terms if you participate.
AI features
Raylight includes AI-assisted features powered by third-party models. AI output can be inaccurate. You are responsible for reviewing anything the assistant produces before you use or publish it, and for ensuring your use of AI output complies with applicable law.
API and integrations
If we grant you API or MCP access, you may use it only for its intended purpose, within any rate or usage limits we set. Do not use the API to build a competing service, resell access, or circumvent plan limits. We may revoke API access at any time.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Break the law, infringe intellectual property, or violate the rights of others
- Upload or distribute content that is illegal, malicious, or intended to deceive or harass
- Probe, disrupt, or overload the Service, or attempt to access other users' accounts or data
- Scrape the Service, resell it, or misrepresent your affiliation with Raylight
- Abuse free tiers, referrals, or promotions through fake accounts or automated signups
Our intellectual property
The Service itself, including its software, design, templates we provide, and branding, belongs to Raylight and its licensors. These terms do not grant you any rights to it beyond normal use of the product. If you send us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without obligation to you.
Termination
You can stop using Raylight and request account deletion at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, create risk for us or other users, or are required to be terminated by law. Where practical, we will give you notice and a chance to export your work.
Disclaimers
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that content will never be lost. Keep copies of anything you cannot afford to lose.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Raylight will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, or data. Our total liability for any claim arising from the Service is limited to the greater of $100 or the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify Raylight against claims arising from your content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of [STATE], without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts located in [STATE].
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the product evolves. If we make material changes, we will update the date at the top of this page and, for significant changes, notify you by email or in the app. Continuing to use the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms.
