Terms of service
Effective 2026-09-10. Operator: MC AI Studio LLC, New York ("we").
The service
UpfrontPDF provides file tools that run in your web browser. You keep all rights to your files and to everything the tools produce from them. We claim none.
Free use
The free tier has a per-tool daily cap and a file size limit, both shown on each tool. Anything you produce on the free tier is yours and keeps working; we do not revoke or expire outputs.
Paid plans
- Plans are sold and billed by Paddle.com, our merchant of record. Paddle's checkout terms apply to the payment itself.
- Monthly plans bill monthly, annual plans bill yearly, and lifetime plans bill once. We do not show a monthly price and bill a year.
- A plan is a license key that works in any browser you activate it in, for your own use. Do not publish it.
- Cancel any time from your receipt email or the pricing page. Access continues to the end of the paid period, then returns to the free tier. Nothing you already made is affected.
- Refunds: see the refund policy.
Acceptable use
Do not use the tools to break the law, to process material you have no right to process, or to attack the service. Because your files never reach us, we have no way to inspect them and no responsibility for their contents.
No warranty, limited liability
The tools are provided as they are. We work to make them accurate and say plainly where they are not (for example, table detection in PDFs). To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability for any claim is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.
Copyright complaints
Files are never uploaded to us, so we host no user content. If you believe something on the site itself infringes your copyright, email the address on the about page with the details required by 17 U.S.C. 512(c)(3) and we will respond promptly.
Disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by talking to us first will be resolved by binding individual arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, and not in a class or representative action. You may opt out of this arbitration clause by emailing us within 30 days of first accepting these terms.
Changes
If these terms change, the effective date changes and the change is described here. Continued use after a change is acceptance of it.
