License

Free software, and what that costs.

Understand the app’s AGPL terms, source obligations, and the separate rights needed for models and outputs.

Last updated 4 November 2026

The licence

VoiceStudio is released under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3. That file is the licence; this page is a plain-language summary of it and carries no legal weight of its own. Where the two disagree, the file wins.

What you can do

  • Run it, for anything, including at work and for money.
  • Read the source, change it, and run your changed version.
  • Share it and your changes, under the same licence.

For VoiceStudio’s own AGPL-covered code, there is no seat count, evaluation period or field-of-use restriction. Commercial use alone does not require buying a separate app licence. Model, dependency and output terms must be reviewed separately.

What it asks in return

If you distribute the software or a modified version, the recipients get the source and the same freedoms you had.

The AGPL adds one thing the GPL doesn't: running it as a network service counts. If you modify VoiceStudio and let people use it over a network — a web app, an internal tool, a hosted API — you must offer those users the modified source, even though you never handed them a copy of the program.

In practice

  • Using the desktop app at work. The AGPL permits commercial use of the app code; it does not grant model or voice rights.
  • Calling the local API from your own code. Nothing required, as long as your code is a separate program talking to it over the network rather than a derived work of it.
  • Shipping VoiceStudio inside a product you distribute. Distribution can create source and notice obligations. Whether another component forms a covered combined work needs a review of the actual integration.
  • Hosting a modified VoiceStudio for other people. Your users must be able to get your modified source.

If that last pair is a problem for your business, get legal advice before shipping and send an Enterprise enquiry. Buying a Pro or Lifetime seat does not by itself grant closed-source or private-hosting terms.

Models, outputs and upstream agreements

VoiceStudio's app licence and a model publisher's terms cover different things. A paid Pro, Lifetime or Enterprise app licence does not automatically grant rights to model weights, selected voices, tokenizers or other third-party components. Permission to run a model, sell its outputs and redistribute its files are separate questions.

The Library shows scope-labelled disclosures, declared licences, source revisions and evidence dates from the app's versioned registry. “Not verified” means review is unresolved; it does not mean permission or prohibition. A restriction on one source does not settle every variant. Incomplete component evidence is never represented as a cleared commercial workflow.

This registry is currently a disclosure-only foundation. Its draft source pin can be newer than your installed app; it is not a claim that released apps gate every download. A local acknowledgement records a notice review. It does not grant additional rights, replace the original terms, establish voice consent, or complete an upstream provider's agreement or gated-access approval.

Before commercial use or redistribution, review the exact selected files and dependencies, original upstream terms, notices and your intended activity. See the model selection guide and the versioned disclosure export.

No warranty

Sections 15 and 16 of the AGPL apply: the software comes with no warranty, and the contributors are not liable for what it does. That is the deal with all free software, and it is the reason you can have it for nothing.

VoiceStudio Pro

This page covers the free app. VoiceStudio Pro's own licence terms, including its commercial-use grant, are shown on the Pro page in the app. Third-party components and models keep their own licences.

This page summarises the licence for readability. The binding text is LICENSE in the repository.
