Licensing FAQ
Can I post Free or Creator plan output publicly, and do I need to credit Sonilo?
Short answer
You can post Free or Creator output to a personal account that is not monetized, sponsored, or used for a business. A download made on the Free plan must be credited “Music by Sonilo” (or “Sound effects by Sonilo”) wherever you share it; Creator, Pro, Premium, and Enterprise output needs no credit. What you cannot do on Free or Creator is use the output commercially: ads, sponsorships, monetized channels, client work, or products you sell. Free plan exports are also preview quality.

Attribution
Free plan: required. If you share or publish a Free-plan download, the Terms (Section 6.2) require a credit of “Music by Sonilo”, or “Sound effects by Sonilo” for sound effects, where viewers can reasonably see it, such as the video description or caption.
Creator, Pro, Premium, and Enterprise: not required. You may credit Sonilo if you want to, but the license does not depend on it. Platform rules on labelling AI-generated content are separate and apply regardless of plan.
Export quality
Free exports are preview quality. Paid plans export at full quality.
