Descript and invideo: terms for uploaded books
Descript's and invideo's terms read differently on four of the six upload clauses: licences, training use, infringement handling and visibility. As of 2026-09-25.
| Clause | Descript | invideo |
|---|---|---|
| Rights you promise to hold | You warrant you hold the rights | You warrant you hold the rights |
| Licence you grant the tool | Not stated in the terms read | Limited to running the service |
| Uploads used for training | May be used for training | Kept out of training |
| Handling of infringement | Repeat infringers removed | A notice-and-takedown route |
| Whether uploads go public | Public only if you share it | Not stated in the terms read |
| What deletion does | Not stated in the terms read | Not stated in the terms read |
Inclusion rule. The six clauses every tool on the register is read for. Order. The order clauses take on every tool page.
1Where the terms differ
Descript's terms cover visibility, where invideo's terms read are silent. invideo's terms cover licences, where Descript's terms read are silent. On rights warranties the two agree: you warrant you hold the rights. On training use, Descript reads “may be used for training” and invideo reads “kept out of training”. On infringement handling, Descript reads “repeat infringers removed” and invideo reads “a notice-and-takedown route”. Neither set of terms states deletion.
For a public-domain text, the warranty is easier to give; the licence and training rows still decide what the tool may keep.
