Terms

The studio

Painted (painted.app) is operated by PaintedApp, LLC. Using the studio means agreeing to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use it. You must be 18 or over to hold an account or to buy anything.

How a painting is made

A line, a photograph or a drawing goes with our own instruction for the style you chose to OpenAI's image model gpt-image-2.5-sunburst, which returns three frames, each in its own finish. The styles are described by us after painters who have been gone seventy years or more; no living artist is named or imitated, and a line that names one is refused. We may refuse to paint anything, and our moderation refuses content we will not make.

What is free

Six paintings, with or without an account: three for each of your first two requests. A visitor’s six are counted for the day on this browser and this connection; an account’s six are counted over its life. Every free painting is watermarked and shown on the wall for a day. Accounts hold a daily limit as well. Free paintings are for looking at, not for reproducing or distributing.

What you own, and what you may do with it

You keep every right in the line, photograph or drawing you bring. You grant us a licence to store it and to send it to the providers named in the privacy page for the sole purpose of painting from it and fulfilling your order. You promise the photograph is yours to use and, where a child appears, that you are the child’s parent or guardian.

A painting you have paid for is licensed to you for personal use: keep it, print it anywhere at any size, hang it, wear it, give it. You may not resell it, license it, use it in advertising, sell it as stock or use it to train a model. A watermarked preview is for evaluation only.

A painting made while you hold the Gallery plan is licensed to you for commercial use as well: you may sell it and the goods you print it on, and use it in your own advertising and publications. That licence stays with the painting after the plan ends. It does not let you sell or license the painting as stock, offer it as a template, or use it to train a model. No other plan carries a commercial licence.

Museum scans

Scans on the shelf are public domain or CC0, held by the museums named on their plaques, and the licence stated there applies to the scan. As a seed, a scan lends a painting its handling, never its subject, and the credit stays on the plaque and the share page. A print of a scan is the scan as the museum released it; it is never upscaled and only sizes its pixels carry at 150 pixels an inch are offered.

Choosing, approval and orders

Nothing can be bought until you have chosen a frame and approved its exposure. The frame you chose, at the exposure you approved, is the file that is delivered and printed. If you change the exposure after choosing it, the painting must be chosen again before it can be bought. Prints, canvases and garments are made to order by Prodigi and Printful and are not returnable except for a fault in making or delivery, which we put right or refund. Prices are in US dollars, set on the order page before you pay, and charged by Stripe. The server prices every order itself; a price shown anywhere else does not bind us.

Gifts

An order sent to someone else goes to the address you give with the note you write. You are responsible for having their consent to receive it and for the note’s contents.

Passes

After the six free paintings, each request takes one pass and returns three paintings. Eight passes, 24 paintings, come with any order, a print, a garment or a file alike, and eight more passes cost $10, charged by Stripe, once for each account. Passes are kept on your account and never expire. A pass pays for the paintings, not the file: the painting you choose is still bought on the order page, where it is delivered unmarked and at full size. A request is one line, photograph or drawing painted three ways, whichever of the three you choose; a request that fails before any painting finishes is credited back.

Plans

Student is $25 a month for 15 paintings, University is $49 a month for 45 paintings, Gallery is $149 a month for 120 paintings. A plan is a monthly subscription charged by Stripe on the day you join and on the same day each month after. Its paintings refill on each paid renewal and do not carry over, and while you hold a plan its paintings are used before any pass. Every painting made on a plan can be downloaded from your workroom without the watermark at up to 4K, for as long as the plan lasts and for 30 days after it ends; after that its file is bought on the order page like any other. University takes 10% off and Gallery takes 20% off the pieces in any order placed while the plan is live; shipping is not discounted. You can change or cancel a plan from Manage on How it works. A cancelled plan runs to the end of the month you paid for, nothing already painted is taken back, and a palette sampled on Gallery stays yours.

Share pages

A share page shows only the painting, its title, its plaque and a door to the studio, to anyone with its link. You turn it on and off. Turning it off removes our page and image; copies others took while it was on are outside our reach. No painting that contains a child is given one.

Your wall

Only you can see your workroom and your wall and buy what is on them. A share is the only thing of yours anyone else sees, and only when you chose it.

Limits

The studio is offered as it is. We do not promise a particular painting, a likeness, or that the studio is available at every moment. Our liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, except where the law does not allow that limit. These terms are governed by the laws of Oregon, USA.

Changes

When these terms change, the date at the top changes with it, and a material change is announced on the wall before it takes effect.
