AI Transparency
Last updated: March 25, 2026
Purpose of This Page
In compliance with the EU AI Act and our commitment to transparency, this page explains how CaptureAPI uses (or does not use) artificial intelligence in its products and services.
How We Use AI
CaptureAPI is primarily a deterministic API service that captures screenshots, generates PDFs, and creates OG images using headless browser technology (Chromium/Puppeteer). Our core services do not rely on AI or machine learning models to function.
We do not use AI to make automated decisions about our users, their accounts, or their access to services.
Automated Decision-Making
CaptureAPI does not employ AI-based automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significant effects on users. Rate limiting and usage tracking are based on simple counting logic, not AI models.
Data Handling
URLs and content submitted to our API are processed solely for the purpose of generating the requested output (screenshot, PDF, or OG image). We do not use submitted data to train AI models. Captured content is cached temporarily (up to 24 hours) and then automatically deleted.
Your Rights
Under the EU AI Act and GDPR, you have the right to:
- Be informed about how AI is used in services you interact with
- Request human review of any automated decision that affects you
- Object to automated profiling
- Receive a clear explanation of any AI-driven process
