2. Description of Service

Castify employs state-of-the-art Language Model and Text-To-Speech technologies to generate unique podcasts based on user-specified topics and lengths. Please be advised that while we endeavor to filter out harmful content, our capacity to identify and reject sensitive topics is subject to ongoing refinement, particularly as we accumulate more user data. The autogenerated content may occasionally include imprecise or inaccurate information, and we are committed to enhancing this aspect through our continuous testing. Users should be cognizant of certain limitations during this phase, such as a cap of two podcasts per day. Your utilization of the Service contributes to our efforts to refine and augment its capabilities.
