Terms of Service

Last Updated: April 1, 2026

1. Introduction

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern the use of the Shorts Pipeline application (“the App”). The App is a personal-use automation tool built and operated exclusively by Moneounchpan (@moneounchpan on TikTok).

Important: This application is not a public service. It does not have users, does not accept registrations, and is operated by a single individual for personal content creation and publishing purposes only.

2. Description of Service

Shorts Pipeline is an automated content pipeline that:

  • Extracts pages from comic book files (PDF, CBZ, CBR)
  • Generates “Did You Know” narration scripts using AI vision analysis
  • Produces short-form videos with AI-generated voice narration
  • Publishes videos to the operator's own TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram accounts via their official APIs

The App operates as a command-line tool on the operator's own infrastructure and does not provide any web-based user interface or service to the public.

3. Personal Use Only

The App is intended for and restricted to personal use by a single operator. Specifically:

  • The App has no public users, no user accounts, and no registration system
  • The sole operator (Moneounchpan) is the only person who uses the App
  • All content is created for and published to the operator's own social media accounts
  • The App does not provide services, functionality, or access to any other individuals

4. Acceptable Use

The operator commits to using the App in compliance with all applicable laws and the terms and guidelines of all third-party platforms, including but not limited to:

The operator retains full ownership of all original content created using the App, including AI-generated scripts, voice narration, and composed video content. The App does not claim any ownership rights over content created by the operator.

5.2 AI-Generated Content

The App uses artificial intelligence (Google Gemini API) to generate narration scripts and Google Cloud Text-to-Speech to produce audio narration. The operator acknowledges that:

  • AI-generated content may require review for accuracy
  • The operator is solely responsible for the accuracy and appropriateness of all published content, regardless of whether it was AI-generated
  • AI-generated content is subject to the terms of the AI service providers (Google Cloud Terms of Service)

5.3 Comic Book Content

The operator acknowledges responsibility for ensuring that the use of comic book pages in video content complies with applicable copyright law, including fair use principles or any applicable licenses. The App provides no legal advice regarding copyright compliance.

5.4 Platform Content Licenses

By publishing content through the App to third-party platforms (TikTok, YouTube, Instagram), the operator acknowledges that such content becomes subject to the content licensing terms of those platforms as specified in their respective Terms of Service.

6. Third-Party Services

The App relies on the following third-party services for its operation:

  • TikTok Content Posting API — For video publishing
  • YouTube Data API v3 — For video uploading and scheduling
  • Instagram Graph API — For cross-posting as Reels
  • Google Cloud Text-to-Speech — For voice narration
  • Google Gemini API — For AI vision analysis and script generation
  • Cloudinary — For temporary video hosting

The operator acknowledges that:

  • The availability and functionality of the App depends on the continued availability of these third-party services
  • Third-party services may change their terms, APIs, or availability at any time without notice
  • The App developer is not responsible for any disruption, modification, or discontinuation of third-party services
  • Use of third-party services is subject to their respective terms of service and privacy policies

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to:

  • Implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement
  • Warranties that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure
  • Warranties regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of any AI-generated content
  • Warranties that the App will be compatible with any particular platform API version

  • Indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages
  • Loss of profits, data, business opportunities, or goodwill
  • Damages arising from the use or inability to use the App

This limitation of liability applies regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise) and even if the developer has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

9. Indemnification

The operator agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the App developers from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) arising from:

  • Access to third-party APIs may be terminated by the respective platforms at their sole discretion

Upon termination, all locally stored authentication tokens should be deleted. The operator's content that has already been published to third-party platforms will remain subject to those platforms' terms of service.

11. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which the operator resides, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction.

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in the application, legal requirements, or third-party platform policies. Any changes will be reflected by an updated “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be noted on the home page.
