Scrively Fair Use Policy
Our Commitment to Sustainable Creativity
Scrively’s mission is to make professional-quality children’s books affordable and accessible for families, teachers, and creators everywhere. Our recurring membership plans (monthly or annual) give you ongoing access to our AI-powered platform with higher usage limits than our one-time plans, while ensuring the platform remains sustainable for all.
Because AI services—especially image generation—incur significant costs each time you create content, we use a Fair Use Policy to balance generous creativity with platform stability.
🔑 How It Works: Your Monthly Allowance
Your plan includes a set number of AI generation credits that reset every 30 days (monthly users) or on your annual billing cycle (annual users).

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Why are there limits if I’m paying monthly/annually?
Every image generation costs money to produce. These limits ensure Scrively stays sustainable while keeping prices affordable.
Do retries or regenerations count?
Yes—every successful generation uses credits, since costs are incurred each time. If a server error occurs, no credits are deducted.
Do covers count separately?
No, cover art counts toward your page illustration allowance.
What if I don’t use all my credits?
Unused credits don’t roll over, but you’ll get a full reset every billing cycle.

We provide a generous number of high-resolution PDF and ePub exports each month, perfect for proofing, sharing, and printing your creations. - Daily Rate Limit
To prevent automated abuse and ensure stable performance for all users, every account has a daily cap on generation actions. This limit is set high enough that most users will never even notice it.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Why are there limits on images if this is a lifetime plan?
The AI models we use for generating images are powerful but also very expensive to run. These limits ensure that we can cover recurring costs and continue to offer affordable access to our platform for everyone, forever.
Do retries or regenerating an image still use credits?
Yes, every successful generation consumes credits, as costs are incurred each time we process the request. However, if a generation fails due to a server error on our end, you will not be charged a credit. We only charge for what you receive.
Do cover images count separately?
No, cover art is included in your page illustration allowance.
What if I don’t use all my credits this month?
Unused credits don’t carry over, but your balance resets automatically every 30 days.
Do retries or regenerations count?
Yes, each successful generation consumes credits, since costs are incurred every time.
