1What “limited to running the service” means here

A licence limited to running the service lets the tool store and process your text and show you the results while you use it. Among the tools read it is the narrowest grant.

2Other tools with this reading

invideo, Krea, Pictory and SceneMixer have the same reading, which makes 5 of the 24 tools.

Terms of service change without notice, so the current version on the tool's site governs.

3Why it matters for a book

A licence is permission you give, not ownership you hand over. What changes from tool to tool is how long the permission lasts, whether it can pass to another company, and what the tool may do with a manuscript beyond making your video.
