Terms of use

Last updated 11 November 2026

Draft: have this checked before you take payments.

Using Claywright

Claywright is a design tool for potters. You can use the free features for personal and commercial work. Pro features need a current subscription or a founding licence.

The beta

Claywright is in beta. Every feature is free while it lasts, and downloads unlock once you add your email. Mold files, case parts and figures are provided as they are, without any promise that they suit a particular piece. Print and pour a test before a big mold, and check fits and shrinkage against test pieces. Features may change before paid plans start, and we'll give notice before anything that was free becomes paid.

What you make is yours

Designs, molds and pieces you make with Claywright belong to you. Don't use it to copy other makers' work that you don't have the right to reproduce.

Estimates, not guarantees

Mold geometry, shrinkage, drain times, glaze chemistry, cone and firing figures are calculations to help you. Check them against test pieces. Glaze calculations are not safety tests: food-surface glazes need leach testing, and lead, barium and other hazardous materials need proper handling. Follow the safety advice for plaster, clay and glaze materials, and for your kiln.

Paid plans and refunds

Subscriptions renew until you cancel, and you keep Pro until the end of the period you paid for. A founding licence gives Pro for the life of the product. Ask within 14 days of any payment for a full refund. These terms don't limit your rights under Australian Consumer Law.

Changes and availability

We'll keep improving Claywright and may change features. We'll give notice of changes to these terms that affect paid plans. We aim to keep it running but can't promise it will never be unavailable.
