Fireworks AI
DEVELOPER / CODING
PROMPT
API customers own all prompts, data, and model weights deployed on Fireworks AI. Fireworks processes requests to deliver fast model inference.
OUTPUT
Customers own all model outputs. Fireworks AI does not assert IP over inference results.
TRAINING
No ToS cached (fireworks-ai_tos.txt is 0 lines, empty). Privacy policy cached file returns a 404 error page. No policy content available for analysis. Fireworks AI is an enterprise inference platform focused on fast model inference for developers. Based on the nature of the business (inference-only platform), training on customer inputs is unlikely by design, but cannot be confirmed from cached policy documents.
COMMERCIAL
Commercial use is fully permitted. Fireworks AI is purpose-built for commercial AI inference at scale.

WORKFLOW & AUTOMATION
PROMPT
The Privacy Policy states users are responsible for ensuring anyone appearing in their content has consented to recording and sharing. Velvet may use personal information, including Task Submissions, for research and development purposes. No explicit clause addresses user retention of ownership over prompt inputs; the AI Addendum's broad assignment and licensing language (see output_ownership_summary) effectively extends to all submitted content. Prompt ownership as a standalone topic is not directly addressed.
OUTPUT
Velvet claims near-total ownership of Task Submissions. Users irrevocably assign all right, title, and interest — including copyrights and all Intellectual Property Rights — to Velvet on a perpetual, universe-wide basis, and waive all moral rights. Where assignment is legally incomplete, users grant Velvet and its affiliates a perpetual, irrevocable, freely transferable, sublicensable, fully paid-up, royalty-free exclusive license covering all exploitation rights in any media, by any technology, now or hereafter known, throughout the universe. Velvet also receives a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use the user's name, image, likeness, and biographical information in connection with Task Submissions without further consent or compensation. Velvet explicitly retains the right to sell or license Task Submissions to other users and third parties.
TRAINING
Training use is the platform's stated core purpose. Velvet's Privacy Policy explicitly discloses that it provides a platform for video creators to deliver Task Submissions for the purpose of third-party AI companies training artificial intelligence models; that these third parties may use Task Submissions to train AI; that it collects, uses, or sells personal data for the purpose of training large language models (LLMs); and that it licenses Sensitive Personal Information to third-party AI companies for AI model training if the user instructs or explicitly consents. The AI Addendum confirms the grant to Velvet includes the right to use Task Submissions to train artificial intelligence and machine learning models and to license or sell Task Submissions to Velvet's customers for that purpose.
COMMERCIAL
Velvet prohibits users from using the Service for commercial solicitation purposes and from copying, renting, selling, sublicensing, reselling, distributing, modifying, or creating derivative works of the Service or Velvet's Intellectual Property. Conversely, Velvet itself discloses collecting and sharing personal information for targeted advertising business purposes, disclosing personal information categories to business-purpose recipients, and explicitly retains the right to sell or license user Task Submissions to other users and third parties. De-identified or aggregated usage data may be shared with third parties for any lawful business purpose.
