Terms of use
These terms cover the use of intabulo at https://intabulo.eu. The service is run by the Austrian sole trader named in the legal notice. Uploading a file or creating an account means accepting these terms.
1. What the service does
intabulo reads an uploaded PDF of sheet music, recognises the notes, and produces lute or guitar tablature as a PDF. Part of the recognition is done by AI models and is not free of error. Pitches, accidentals and rhythms can be read wrongly. Check the result before you rely on it — the recognised-notes PDF exists for exactly that. No particular accuracy is promised.
2. Accounts
The service can be tried without an account, within a daily cap. An account needs a working email address and a password; the address is verified. Keep your credentials to yourself. The operator may suspend accounts that break these terms.
3. Rights in what you upload
You warrant that you hold the rights you need in every file you upload. That means: you are the rights holder, or the work is in the public domain, or you have the rights holder's permission, or a statutory exception — such as copying for your own use — covers what you are doing.
You further warrant that the file infringes nobody else's rights and that making tablature from it is permitted. You indemnify the operator against any third-party claim arising from a breach of this warranty, including reasonable costs of defence.
The operator does not check the copyright status of uploads in advance, and is not in a position to do so.
4. Reporting an infringement
If you believe something on intabulo infringes your rights, write to:
It helps to name the work concerned, say what your rights in it are, give the job link or identifier if you have it, and leave a way to reach you. Reports are dealt with on arrival: the files concerned are removed and the account responsible may be suspended.
5. What is not allowed
- Uploading files you do not hold the rights to under clause 3.
- Automated use beyond the configured limits, or working around those limits.
- Circumventing security measures, or reaching another person's account or files.
- Uploading malware, unlawful material, or other people's personal data that has no business being there.
- Loading the service so heavily that others cannot use it.
6. Your files
The rights in your uploads and in the tablature made from them stay with you. The operator receives only the right to store and process them as far as running the service requires. How long files are kept and who can see them is set out in the privacy policy.
7. Availability
The service comes with no promised level of availability. Maintenance, faults and changes to what it does are possible at any time. Individual models may be added, withdrawn, or have their price changed.
8. Prices
Nothing is charged at present. Cost per job is recorded from the start so that billing is possible later. If payment is introduced, it will apply only after notice and explicit agreement.
9. Liability
The operator is liable for intent and gross negligence. For slight negligence liability arises only on breach of a material obligation and is limited to the foreseeable damage typical of this kind of contract. Liability for personal injury and under the Austrian Product Liability Act is unaffected. No liability is accepted for damage arising from wrongly recognised notes; see clause 1.
10. Ending the agreement
You can have your account deleted at any time. The operator may discontinue the service, or suspend an account that breaks these terms. Deleting an account deletes its files, jobs and ledger rows with it.
11. Governing law
Austrian law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer, the mandatory protections of the country you live in are unaffected and the courts are those the law provides. Against businesses, the competent court in Vienna has jurisdiction.
12. Changes
These terms may change. The version in force is always the one on this page; material changes are announced by email to registered users.
