Terms of Service
Last updated: 25 August 2026
If you are a production company — several films, a team, one invoice — your subscription is governed by the SaaS Subscription Agreement, which sets out the human-review obligation, the suppliers we use, and what happens to your screenplays when you leave.
1. Who you are contracting with
Breakdown27 ("the service") is operated by [COMPANY NAME], VAT number [VAT NUMBER], registered office at [REGISTERED ADDRESS] ("we", "us"). You can reach us at ciao@breakdown27.com.
2. What the service does
Breakdown27 reads a screenplay and produces a production breakdown: scene list, locations, time of day, page eighths, cast, department sheets, stripboard, day out of days, schedule, budget and the related exports. Some features use artificial intelligence models to read the text of your scenes; those features are optional and always require you to start them.
3. Accounts
You need an account to use the hosted service. You are responsible for keeping your password safe and for what happens under your account. Tell us straight away if you think someone else has access to it. You must be at least 18 years old, or have the authority to enter into this contract on behalf of the company you work for.
4. Plans, prices and payment
Plans and prices are the ones published on the pricing page. All prices are exclusive of VAT: the applicable tax is added at checkout according to your country. Business customers in the European Union with a valid VAT number are not charged VAT (reverse charge).
You choose monthly or yearly billing. Payment is taken in advance for the period. Payments are handled by Stripe: we never see or store your card details. If a payment fails we may suspend the paid features until it succeeds; your data stays where it is.
We may change prices for future periods. If we do, we will tell you by email at least 30 days before it applies to you, and you are free to cancel before it takes effect. The price of a period you have already paid never changes.
5. Cancelling
You can cancel whenever you like, on your own, from the account page inside the app — no email, no phone call, no notice period. Your plan stays active until the end of the period you have already paid for, and then you move to Preview. Your projects stay: AI analysis and export switch off, nothing is deleted.
6. Right of withdrawal (consumers)
If you are a consumer in the European Union you normally have 14 days to withdraw from a distance contract. Because this is digital content supplied immediately, when you subscribe you are asked to expressly request immediate performance and to acknowledge that you lose the right of withdrawal once the service has been fully performed. Until you actually use a paid feature, you can still withdraw within 14 days by writing to ciao@breakdown27.com, and we refund you in full.
Beyond that, if something goes genuinely wrong on our side — the service is unusable, or a charge was a mistake — write to us. We would rather refund you than argue.
7. What belongs to you
Your screenplays are yours. The breakdowns, schedules, budgets and exports produced from them are yours. We claim no rights over any of it, we do not share it with anyone, and we do not use it to train any model. We store it only to provide the service to you, and you can download or delete all of it from your account page at any time.
8. What belongs to us
The software, the interface, the name and the logo are ours. You may use the service, not copy it, resell it, or take it apart to build a competing product.
9. Acceptable use
Do not upload material you have no right to use, do not try to break into other people's accounts, do not attempt to overload or circumvent the service's limits, and do not use it to produce material that is unlawful. We may suspend an account that does any of this, and we will tell you why.
10. The limits of an automated breakdown
This matters more here than the usual boilerplate. A breakdown produced automatically — whether by parsing the text or by an AI model — is a first draft. It can miss an element, invent a connection, or misread a page. Page counts, cast days, schedules and budget figures are estimates.
Check the results before you spend money on them. The service is provided "as is": we do not warrant that it is error-free or fit for a particular production, and we are not liable for decisions taken on the basis of its output.
11. Availability
We work to keep the service up but we do not promise a specific uptime. We may take it down for maintenance, and we may change or remove features — if a change removes something you were relying on, we will tell you in advance where we reasonably can.
12. Liability
To the extent the law allows, our total liability towards you for any claim is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose. We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, including lost profit or production costs. Nothing here limits liability for fraud, death or personal injury, or anything else that cannot be limited by law — including the rights that consumer law gives you in your country.
13. Ending the contract
You can stop at any time by cancelling and, if you want, deleting your account. We may end the contract if you seriously breach these terms, after telling you and giving you a chance to put it right, unless the breach makes that pointless.
14. Changes to these terms
If we change these terms in a way that matters to you, we will tell you by email at least 30 days beforehand. If you do not agree, cancel before the change applies: that is the whole of the remedy.
15. Law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the law of [COUNTRY], and the courts of [CITY] have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory rules of the country where you live, and you may also use the European Online Dispute Resolution platform.
