Terms of service
Version 5, 5 November 2026. Terranext SIA, Riga.
What changed in version 5: a design partner's price is held for two years.
What changed in version 4: you can withdraw or cancel online, what you pay if you withdraw, and the Data Processing Terms.
What changed in version 3: sign-in is by a code (in older apps, a link) sent to your e-mail, and the design partner price is stated as Studio's own price.
What changed in version 2: the free first episode, the plans as sold, hours packs, the founding licence, VAT, the right of withdrawal and refunds, renewals, what happens when a plan ends, stock images, TikTok, and the open-source components.
These terms apply to the Studiotake app and service provided by Terranext SIA, Pulkveža Brieža iela 2, Riga, LV-1010, Latvia, VAT LV40203700622.
- The service. Studiotake is an app for your computer that turns your recordings into a finished episode, its shorts, covers, titles and posts, and a hosted service that provides sign-in, licences, the AI that writes the cut and the texts (Claude, through our server), stock images on some plans, and connections to the platforms you publish on. Your recordings are processed on your computer.
- Your content. Everything you record and produce stays yours. We claim no rights in it.
- Accounts and seats. A studio account has an owner who invites members. A plan includes a number of seats (signed-in computers). Sign-in is by a code (in older apps, a link) sent to your e-mail: keep that mailbox secure.
- The free first episode. A new studio can make its first episode free, with no card: one episode of up to an hour, with its shorts, covers, titles and posts, and up to US$3 of AI use for the studio's whole life, never renewed. It includes no stock images. Its videos carry a small "Made with Studiotake" mark, and the full episode ends with a three-second credit; you may not remove or hide them. Once the studio is on a paid plan, the app makes them again without the mark.
- Plans. The plans are Creator (€19 a month: 1 seat, 5 episode-hours a month), Pro (€49 a month: 1 seat, 12 episode-hours), Studio (€149 a month: 3 seats, 40 episode-hours) and Agency (€399 a month: 10 seats, 120 episode-hours). A year costs ten months. An episode-hour is one hour of finished episode, however many cameras recorded it. Each plan includes a monthly AI budget and, from Pro up, a monthly allowance of stock images; the AI budget renews on the 1st of each month, and use beyond it is not possible until then. Unused episode-hours do not carry over to the next month. What each plan includes is shown when you buy it. Hours packs: while a studio has a plan or the founding licence, it can add 10 episode-hours for a one-off €35 (or US$35), that is €3.50 an hour, excluding VAT, never billed automatically. A pack is used after the monthly or included hours, is valid 12 months from purchase, and can be used only while the studio has a plan or the founding licence.
- Founding licence. Only while the site offers it: €129 (or US$129) once, excluding VAT, for the first 500 buyers. It gives the Creator level for as long as Studiotake sells it, with the app's updates. It has no monthly fee and no monthly episode-hours: 10 episode-hours, priced at €3.50 each and valid 12 months, are included, and more are bought in hours packs. One licence per studio.
- Design partner. By invitation only, on the allowances agreed with each partner (today €149 a month for 3 seats and 40 episode-hours a month). A partner's price and allowances are held for two years from its first payment: no price change reaches it in that time; after that, point 9 applies. A partner who joined before 5 November 2026 keeps its price for as long as it stays a partner.
- Prices and VAT. Prices are set excluding VAT. Before you buy, we show the total including VAT; a business with a valid EU VAT number pays no VAT (reverse charge). Until 1 January 2027, when our registration under the EU's One-Stop Shop starts, every consumer in the EU pays Latvian VAT (21%); from then, the VAT of their own country. Payments go through Stripe, our payment processor.
- Renewal and changes. Plans are paid in advance, monthly or yearly as chosen at purchase, and renew automatically at the end of each period until cancelled. Before a yearly plan renews, we e-mail you a reminder. Moving to a dearer plan charges the difference for the rest of the period at once; moving to a cheaper one is credited on the next invoice. We tell you about a price change at least 30 days before it applies, from your next renewal; you can cancel before then and you will not pay the new price.
- Cancelling. You can cancel at any time under Account → Manage billing, or at studiotake.app/cancel ("Cancel contracts here" at the foot of every page). The plan then runs to the end of the period already paid and does not renew. Where the law of your country lets a consumer end a contract that renewed automatically at shorter notice (for example with one month's notice after the first year), you can do so.
- Right of withdrawal and refunds. If you buy as a consumer in the EU or the UK, you can withdraw within 14 days of the purchase without giving a reason. Use "Withdraw from contract here" at the foot of every page (studiotake.app/withdraw), or send us the model form below, or any clear statement, at contact@studiotake.app. We confirm by e-mail at once, with the date and time. At checkout you asked us to start at once. So if you withdraw, you pay for what you used until you told us: for a plan, the days used out of the period paid; for an hours pack or the founding licence, €3.50 (or US$3.50) for each episode-hour used, plus VAT. We refund the rest within 14 days, to the card you paid with. The right ends early only once the service has been fully provided, for example when every hour of a pack has been used. A business buying with a VAT number has no right of withdrawal. Apart from a withdrawal, payments are not refunded, except where the law requires it.
- When a plan ends. When a subscription ends or is not paid, the studio moves to the "ended" state. The app keeps working with your files and what it has already made, but it can no longer use the AI or license stock images, so it cannot make new episodes. Posts scheduled before the plan ended still go out, and an upload already under way may finish. New posts cannot be scheduled and new videos cannot be uploaded until you choose a plan again. Videos already on your channel stay yours to manage from the app: their schedule, captions, thumbnails, titles and descriptions. Your account and its data stay until you close the account.
- Publishing on your behalf. When you connect a channel, Studiotake publishes only what you approve or schedule in the app, at the time you choose. You can disconnect at any time. Publishing also follows each platform's own terms: YouTube's Terms of Service, Meta's terms for Instagram and Facebook, and TikTok's Terms of Service and Music Usage Confirmation.
- Acceptable use. You must own, or have permission to use, everything you put into Studiotake and publish with it: the recordings, the voices and faces of the people in them (including your guests' consent), music, images, logos and brands. You are responsible for telling the people you record what the app does with their recordings, including any voices it remembers on your computer (see the privacy policy). No unlawful content, no content that infringes others' rights, no circumvention of the platforms' rules or of the free episode's limits and mark, and no use of the AI for purposes other than producing your own shows.
- Other people's data. When your recordings include other people, you decide what happens to their data, and we process it for you under the Data Processing Terms at studiotake.app/dpa, which form part of these terms.
- Stock images. Stock images that Studiotake licenses for you (from Shutterstock) may be used only inside the productions made with the app (videos, covers, social posts). You may not hand out or resell the image files themselves.
- Music and other integrations. Music you add, or that you find through an integration you connect yourself (such as Epidemic Sound), is licensed by you under your own agreement with its provider.
- Open-source components. The app includes open-source software (among it FFmpeg, under the LGPL) under its own licences. They are listed, with their sources, at studiotake.app/open-source. Those licences, not these terms, govern those components.
- Availability. We aim for the service to be available at all times but do not guarantee it. The app keeps working offline for 14 days without the service; your files are never held by us. Features marked as beta may change or stop.
- Liability. To the extent the law allows, Studiotake is liable only for direct damages up to the amount you paid in the last 12 months, and not for lost revenue or content you did not back up. Nothing in these terms limits the rights consumers have by law.
- Ending. You can close the account at any time in the app (Settings → Privacy & data). We may end an account for breach of these terms with notice.
- Law. These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Latvia; disputes go to the courts of Riga, without prejudice to the rights consumers have under the law of their own country.
