Only the WordsTerms of service
Last updated 2026-11-15
By using onlythewords.com you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site.
The service
Only the Words is a tool that edits, translates or removes the text on images you upload. Results are made by an AI image model and can contain mistakes: check an edited image before you publish or print it.
Free edits and credits
Without paying you can make 2 edits per day. Credits are sold in packs (20 edits for $4.90 or 60 edits for $9.90). One credit pays for one edit with the new text drawn at 2K, with up to two free redos of that edit within 15 minutes. Credits do not expire. An edit that fails does not use one.
Monthly plans
A monthly plan (100 edits a month for $9.90 or 300 edits a month for $24.90) gives you that many edits in each billing month and saves your images to your account. It renews each month until you cancel. You can cancel at any time from your account; the plan then stays active until the end of the month you have paid for and does not renew. Edits you do not use in a month do not carry over. If we change the price or the number of edits, the change applies from a later billing month and we tell you by email at least 30 days before.
Accounts
An account belongs to one person and is tied to an email address. Keep access to that mailbox: it is how you sign in. Credits and plans are for your own work and may not be resold, and the service may not be used through automated scripts without our agreement.
Your images
Your images stay yours. You give us permission to process and store them only as far as needed to provide the service to you. Only upload images you have the right to edit.
Saved images
Images saved to your account are kept until you delete them, or for 30 days after your plan ends. This is a convenience for editing again, not a backup: keep your own copies of anything you cannot afford to lose.
What we do not edit
Identity documents, financial records, receipts and invoices, certificates and official papers, tickets, medical records and screenshots of chats or social posts are declined, and watermarks are not removed. The full list and the reasons are on What we do not edit. If an account is used to get around these rules or to break the law, we may remove what it has saved and close it.
Complaints about an image
If you believe an image stored or edited here infringes your rights, write to hello@onlythewords.com with enough detail to identify it. We review every report and remove material where the complaint is valid.
Availability
We aim to keep the service running but do not promise uninterrupted availability, and we may change or discontinue features. If we discontinue the service, we refund the credits you have not used and the unused part of a plan month you have paid for.
Payments and refunds
Prices are shown in USD and charged by Dodo Payments as merchant of record. Our refund policy is part of these terms.
Liability
To the extent permitted by law, Only the Words is not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from the use of the service. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 30 days before the claim.
