PowerCut Terms of Service

Last Updated: September 2026

1Introduction

Welcome to PowerCut.

PowerCut is an AI-powered video editing platform that enables users to transform long-form video content into short, social-media-ready clips through automated analysis, transcription, and editing tools, and to schedule and publish those clips to social media accounts they connect.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the PowerCut website, applications, and services (collectively, the "Service").

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service.

2About PowerCut

PowerCut is a browser-based software platform that assists users in:

  • Automatically identifying engaging segments within long-form video content
  • Editing video clips through a web-based timeline editor
  • Removing filler words and pauses using transcript-based editing
  • Adding captions and formatting clips for social media platforms
  • Exporting finished video clips
  • Scheduling and publishing clips to social media accounts you connect

PowerCut provides tools that assist with editing, but users remain responsible for the content they upload and distribute.

When you purchase a subscription:

  • Your payment will be charged by Paddle.

  • Paddle's terms and privacy policy may also apply to payment transactions.

Subscription plans may be billed on a recurring basis (monthly or annually), depending on the plan selected.

6Subscription Renewal

Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle unless cancelled before the renewal date.

You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account dashboard.

Cancellation will take effect at the end of the current billing period.

7Refund Policy

Due to the digital nature of the Service, subscription payments are generally non-refundable.

However, refunds may be issued in limited circumstances at our discretion or where required by law.

Refund requests should be submitted through our support contact.

8User Content

Users may upload video, audio, text, or other materials ("User Content") to the Service.

You retain ownership of your User Content.

By uploading content, you grant PowerCut a limited license to:

  • Process
  • Store
  • Analyze
  • And display the content

solely for the purpose of providing the Service.

You represent and warrant that you have the necessary rights to upload and use the content.

9Connected Social Media Accounts

You can connect accounts on third-party platforms, such as YouTube, and ask PowerCut to publish content to them for you at a time you choose.

By connecting an Instagram or Facebook account, you agree to be bound by the Meta Terms of Service at https://www.facebook.com/terms.php and the Instagram Terms of Use at https://help.instagram.com/581066165581870. Publishing to Instagram requires a professional (Business or Creator) account, and publishing to Facebook requires a Page you manage; these are Meta's requirements, not ours. PowerCut is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Meta Platforms, Inc.

You authorize PowerCut to upload the content you schedule, with the titles, captions, and settings you choose, to the accounts you select.

You are responsible for the content you publish and for complying with each platform's terms, policies, and community guidelines, including any requirement to disclose paid promotions.

Platforms may reject, limit, or remove content, and may change or withdraw access to their services. We do not guarantee that a post will be published, or published at a specific time.

You can disconnect an account at any time. Scheduled posts for that account are then cancelled; posts already published remain on the platform.
