Practical terms for the founding pilot.

Agreement and eligibility

By creating an account, purchasing generation, or publishing a work, you agree to these terms. You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter this agreement. If you use TOC Works for an organization, you confirm that you are authorized to act for it.

The service

Creators provide a table of contents and may add source material or governing rules. TOC Works uses generative systems to produce a complete work for creator review, editing, and export. Publishing through TOC Works is optional. Generated prose is not represented as conventional human authorship, and no generated text is guaranteed to be error-free.

Quotes and payment

Each loaded table of contents receives one production quote in U.S. dollars based on its recognized sections. The displayed price and included work are presented before payment. Payment processing is provided by Stripe.

Included revisions

A founding production payment covers one complete edition and regeneration of up to 20% of its sections for any reason. If requested work exceeds that allowance, TOC Works will show a new price before additional paid work begins.

Refund and cancellation policy

A creator may cancel and request a full refund before generation of the paid edition begins. Once generation begins, the fee funds nonrecoverable model, research, and production costs and is ordinarily nonrefundable.

If TOC Works cannot deliver the purchased edition, we will refund the portion paid for work we did not perform. Duplicate or erroneous charges will be refunded. Request help at info@trasaterra.com.

TOC Works does not currently sell automatically renewing creator subscriptions, so there is no recurring production plan to cancel.

Creator responsibility

The creator is responsible for reviewing the generated edition before publication and for having the right to provide its outline, sources, instructions, quotations, names, likenesses, and other materials. The creator must assess factual accuracy, privacy, defamation, publicity rights, confidentiality, and professional-risk claims. Evidence-based work should be checked against its citations. TOC Works may decline, remove, or restrict unlawful, infringing, deceptive, unsafe, or abusive material.

Artwork and media

For every uploaded image, the creator must accurately identify the rights holder and whether the image is creator-owned, licensed, public domain, or used under a Creative Commons license. License conditions and required attribution remain the creator’s responsibility. Generated images must be disclosed and reviewed for unwanted similarity, trademarks, recognizable persons, and other third-party rights before publication.

Creator materials and publication

Creators retain their rights in original outlines and materials they provide. They grant TOC Works and its service providers a nonexclusive license to process, reproduce, and format those materials only as needed to generate, store, export, or—when the creator elects—publish the work. Private works are not publicly displayed or promoted. The creator represents that these rights can be granted. Publication visibility remains subject to the creator’s selected settings and these terms.

Removing a work ends future display by TOC Works, subject to limited backups, payment or legal records, and copies already exported or lawfully obtained by readers. Copyright complaints are handled under the Copyright and takedown policy. Accounts repeatedly responsible for infringement may be restricted or terminated.

AI output and copyrightability

Generated output may not be unique and may not qualify for copyright protection without sufficient human-authored expression. TOC Works does not promise exclusivity, registrability, or ownership beyond rights its model providers are permitted to assign. Human-authored outlines, selection, arrangement, manual revisions, and original artwork may carry different rights and should be evaluated independently.

Pilot availability and limits

TOC Works is an early-stage service and may change, pause, or discontinue features. Generative, research, and citation systems can produce omissions or mistakes, so creators remain responsible for review before publication or professional use.

To the extent permitted by law, the service is provided as available without a promise of uninterrupted operation or a particular commercial, scholarly, or creative result. TOC Works is not responsible for indirect or consequential losses, and its total liability for a claim will not exceed the amount paid for the affected service. These limits do not reduce rights that cannot legally be waived.
