Service Agreement

TeX2Vid · SheQAI Research · Last updated 10 July 2026

These are the terms for using TeX2Vid (tex2vid.sheqai.com), operated by SheQAI Research (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada). By creating an account or uploading a paper you agree to them. How we handle your data is in the Privacy Policy; our public video index has its own ScholarReels Service Agreement.

The service

TeX2Vid turns a research paper's LaTeX source into narrated videos — Research Teasers and Shorts (vertical, for social media) and Research Highlights and Video Abstracts (16:9, for conferences and journals) — with slides, a transcript, and an independent faithfulness review of the claims against your paper.

What you may upload

  • LaTeX source only (.tex, .zip, .tar.gz), up to 50 MB.
  • Every upload requires your certification that you have the right to upload the paper — as an author or co-author, with the authors' permission, or under an open license (e.g. CC BY 4.0). You are responsible for that being true.
  • No unlawful content, and no content you don't hold the rights to.

Fair use

  • Free teasers are seat-limited per continent and per user.
  • Submissions are rate-limited (at most 2 renders in progress and 2 per hour per connection). Don't script around the limits or otherwise abuse the service — we may refuse service or close an account that does.

Payments, credits, and refunds

  • Paid renders are paid in credits; current prices are on the pricing page. Payments are processed by Stripe and PayPal.
  • Credits are charged when a render starts. If a paid render fails to produce your video (including an AI-service outage on our side), the credit is automatically refunded.
  • Every paid render includes editing and voice recording in the studio, with a per-render re-render budget (2 re-renders; 3 for a Video Abstract). Edit and recording re-renders of an already delivered video are not separately refundable.
  • Subscriptions can be cancelled any time and stop at the end of the paid period.
  • A payment refund or chargeback reverses the credits it paid for; a chargeback also suspends paid features on the account pending review.
  • Remaining credits are forfeited if you delete your account.

Your video

  • You keep your rights in your paper, and the rendered video is yours to use. Free-tier teasers carry SheQAI branding; paid renders are unbranded. You can choose to mark your video CC BY 4.0.
  • The video is AI-generated. Our layered grounding checks and the independent faithfulness review are designed to keep every claim faithful to your paper, but the review is advisory and can contain false positives or miss something — review your video before using it in a scholarly context. The service is provided as-is, without warranty.
  • Publishing a video to our public index is optional and governed by the ScholarReels Service Agreement.

Retention

Uploads and rendered files are kept about 30 days (free) / 90 days (paid) — about 30 days for an anonymous render — then automatically deleted; download what you need within the window. Details in the Privacy Policy.
