LTX Studio and Pika on where the paid boundary sits

This is the one pair in the record where both sides are the same arrangement at different heights. It is filed because the height is the finding, and because it changes who can reach unmarked output without asking anybody. As of 2026-09-12.

Inclusion rule. Two entries whose published answers to one column pull in different directions. Cells hold each vendor's own wording from the page its entry names; pairs that agree on the column are not filed at all. Order. Fixed order, and the two columns are in the order the heading gives them.

1The height of a boundary decides who crosses it

A crossing point at the second tier is reachable by a solo operator on a trial budget without an approval conversation. A crossing point several tiers up is a purchasing decision somebody signs off.

That is a workflow fact rather than a legal one, and it is the only substantive difference between these two entries. The obligation on a publisher is identical either side of either boundary.

2Identical shape, and both cells are inferences

Neither page states what free-tier output carries. Both cells are filled from a phrase present higher up the table and absent lower down, which is the weakest kind of evidence this record admits.

Filing them together makes the weakness visible. Two entries reaching the same conclusion by the same inference is not corroboration; it is the same method applied twice.

3What neither page reaches

The provider duty asks for something software can read, and neither page describes such a signal at any price. Both entries therefore record no documentation on that row rather than an absence of marking.

This is the majority position in the record. Most generators here price a visible mark and say nothing whatever about the layer the clause addresses to whoever built the system.
