Questions

Common Questions

Everything you need to know before you start vaulting.

What file types can I upload?
Author‑Vault accepts virtually every file format — Word docs, PDFs, MP3s, MP4s, MIDI files, images, PowerPoints, plain text, and more. If you created it, we can store it.
Will my work ever be used to train AI?
Never. Your uploads are private, encrypted, and completely off-limits for AI training, data mining, or any third-party use. Your creative work is yours alone.
Can I share my content on the Free plan?
Yes — the Free plan includes share buttons for Facebook, X, WhatsApp, Gmail, and more on every published post. Creator Pro unlocks all additional share platforms. Every published piece also gets its own public URL you can copy and send anywhere.
What happens to my vault if I cancel?
You can export your entire vault at any time before cancelling. We give you a full ZIP download of every file. You are never locked in — your work stays yours.
Is there a storage limit on the Free plan?
Yes — the Free plan includes 2 GB of storage with a 100 MB per-file limit, which covers documents, audio demos, and cover images. Creator Pro gives you 50 GB with 500 MB per file, and Advanced Pro+ gives you 150 GB with 2 GB per file.
How secure is Author‑Vault really?
Every file is encrypted with 256-bit AES encryption and stored across three independent, redundant data centres. Your vault is built to the same standards used by financial institutions.
