What do AI tool terms say about training on uploads?

Of the 24, 13 say something. invideo, Vyond and SceneMixer keep uploads out of training; Runway, HeyGen, Higgsfield, Vidu, Story.com, Krikey AI and Descript may use them; Topview uses them unless you opt out; Luma's paid-use licence covers training; Pictory uses content in aggregate to improve its service. As of 2026-09-25.

Inclusion rule. A source is listed when its own text states what the question asks. Order. Sources in alphabetical order.

For a manuscript nobody else has read, this is the clause to check before anything else.

Silence is not a promise either way. Terms of service often point to separate privacy or data policies, which may say more.

Enterprise plans can carry terms of their own. Higgsfield's training clause excludes enterprise customers under separate agreements, and Descript's research use covers voice training audio.
