Commercial Use

In short

Whether you are allowed to use AI output in paid work.

In plain English

The right to use what a tool produced in work you sell — client deliverables, products, marketing. It is a licence question, and terms differ sharply between tools and tiers.

A real example

Some image tools grant commercial rights on paid plans only. Some restrict it by industry. Some are silent, which is its own problem.

Why it matters

Check before you build a service on a tool. Discovering the restriction after you have delivered to a client is the expensive way to learn it.
