Two platforms.
Same questions.
fal.ai
DEVELOPER / CODING
PROMPT
Customers own and retain all right, title, and interest in their inputs (Customer Input). fal.ai claims no ownership over submitted content.
OUTPUT
fal.ai makes no ownership claim over generated outputs. The platform acknowledges outputs may not be original and could be similar to other users' results.
TRAINING
fal.ai Terms (Section 6(c)) allow use of 'Usage Data' (anonymized/aggregated data about service usage) to 'design, develop, and offer Company products, services, and AI models.' This is a training-adjacent clause. 'Customer Input' (identifiable inputs) is licensed narrowly for service provision only and remains customer property.
COMMERCIAL
Customers may use outputs commercially via their own applications. Reselling, sublicensing, or transferring fal.ai service rights to third parties is prohibited.

ENTERPRISE SEARCH / PRODUCTIVITY
PROMPT
Customer data and queries are not used to train public AI models. LexisNexis processes content via a private, closed-loop AI implementation.
OUTPUT
Users retain rights to generated legal research, drafts, and analysis. LexisNexis does not claim IP ownership over outputs generated.
TRAINING
Explicit contractual prohibition on using Materials to train LLMs. Section 4.3(b) warrants that Subscriber inputs and Subscriber Files will not be used to train any LLM. Section 4.4 confirms LN does not claim IP rights in AI outputs. Opt-out of AI cloud failover available via 30 days written notice (Section 4.6).
COMMERCIAL
Full commercial use in legal practice is the core use case. Generated research and drafts may be used in client matters and legal workflows.
