RoleCut API — Our proprietary backend service for voice generation job processing and audio file delivery.

These third-party services are governed by their own terms of service and privacy policies. We encourage you to review them:

We are not responsible for the practices or content of these third-party services. AI-generated outputs (such as voice lines and script parsing) may not be perfectly accurate and should be used as aids, not definitive sources.

9. AI Services and Limitations

The Service uses artificial intelligence for several features, including script dialogue parsing, voice generation, and speech recognition. Please be aware of the following:

AI outputs are generated by automated systems and may contain errors, inaccuracies, or unexpected results.
AI-generated voice lines are provided as rehearsal aids and may not perfectly replicate human performance nuances.
Script parsing results depend on the quality and formatting of the input. Scanned PDFs and poorly formatted scripts may produce less accurate results.
AI features require an internet connection and are subject to the availability and performance of third-party AI providers.
We do not use your script content or recordings to train AI models.

10. Disclaimers and Limitations of Liability
