Our Responsible AI Policy

  • Every resource must say whether it is Creator-Made, AI-Assisted or AI-Generated.
  • Fully AI-generated resources are allowed only for Video/Animation and Digital Book/eBook formats, after review.
  • All other formats must be Creator-Made or AI-Assisted, with original work from you.
  • AI-generated fonts aren’t allowed in final resources. Covers may include AI elements but can’t be entirely AI-generated artwork.
  • Using AI only for titles, descriptions, grammar or SEO doesn’t change a resource’s classification.
  • We may remove resources or close stores that break these rules.
