PaperShortTerms of Service
Last updated: October 30, 2026
PaperShort (papershort.click) turns research papers into short, narrated, animated explainer videos. By using the site you agree to these terms.
Using PaperShort
- Anyone can watch the videos in the library. Making a video requires signing in with Google.
- New accounts receive a small number of free credits. Credits have no cash value, and we may change how many are offered.
- Only submit papers you are allowed to access. Don't use PaperShort to process material you have no right to use, or to abuse or overload the service.
Generated videos
- Videos are produced automatically by AI models from the paper's text. They are simplified explanations and may contain mistakes - always check the original paper before relying on a claim.
- Videos explain public research and are published in the public library, and may also be posted to PaperShort's own channels (such as YouTube), with a link to the original paper.
- The underlying papers belong to their authors and publishers. If you are an author and want a video removed, email us and we'll take it down.
No warranty
PaperShort is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, and may change or stop at any time. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any damages arising from using the site or its videos.
