Claims (R6, R7): Sonilo says its music models are "trained only on professionally licensed music, including the Shutterstock catalog", citing a Sonilo-issued 11 May 2026 press release and a Shutterstock LinkedIn post; its SFX training sources are separately described only as "compliant" (not the same catalogue). R6 itself notes that "Training-source rights and the permission to use generated output are separate." Terms (R5, s6.2): commercial use depends on the plan when the output was generated, and upgrading later does not extend rights to earlier outputs. Free: personal/non-commercial with "Music by Sonilo" credit; Creator (paid): still non-commercial; Pro: commercial including advertising, client work, monetised channels, apps, websites and indie games (under US$200k combined revenue and funding in the preceding 12 months); Premium: adds film, television, broadcast and studio games; Enterprise/API per separate agreement - so the fal listing's "commercial-use-safe" wording does no...

Claims (R6, R7): Sonilo says its music models are "trained only on professionally licensed music, including the Shutterstock catalog", citing a Sonilo-issued 11 May 2026 press release and a Shutterstock LinkedIn post; its SFX training sources are separately described only as "compliant" (not the same catalogue). R6 itself notes that "Training-source rights and the permission to use generated output are separate." Terms (R5, s6.2): commercial use depends on the plan when the output was generated, and upgrading later does not extend rights to earlier outputs. Free: personal/non-commercial with "Music by Sonilo" credit; Creator (paid): still non-commercial; Pro: commercial including advertising, client work, monetised channels, apps, websites and indie games (under US$200k combined revenue and funding in the preceding 12 months); Premium: adds film, television, broadcast and studio games; Enterprise/API per separate agreement - so the fal listing's "commercial-use-safe" wording does not by itself show which terms govern API outputs bought through fal. The user remains "solely responsible" for clearing all rights in outputs (s6.2), outputs may not be unique and others may get similar results (s7.7), the service is provided as-is without non-infringement warranty, and the user indemnifies Sonilo (s16.3) - no vendor indemnity was found. Data: Sonilo takes a perpetual, sublicensable licence to user content, including uploaded video and audio, to train, fine-tune and improve models unless a plan, setting or agreement says otherwise (s6.3) - relevant before uploading unreleased client footage. Compare: Suno, ElevenLabs Music, Mureka and Udio terms (C3-B411-01, C3-B412-01, C3-B413-01, C3-B478-01). Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Licensed-training claim not independently audited. Not legal advice. Limitations: Licensed-training claim not independently audited; Shutterstock LinkedIn post not read; API/fal-specific agreement not located. Terms change; not legal advice. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
