4. How AI Dey Handle Your Content
When you play story, ask our support assistant, chat for world, or use our creator tools:
- Na DeepSeek dey mainly process how Story dey flow, e dey use deepseek-flash. Groq na di separate fallback wey dem set for how Story dey flow. These services dey pick and arrange fixed material wey creator write; dem no dey write live Story prose. Na DeepSeek dey process support questions, e dey use deepseek-flash. Di support provider dey receive di current question, relevant published help, page context, and any support preferences wey you choose to save; e no dey receive di full conversation history. Other general platform text, including non-story world chat, na DeepSeek dey mainly process am with deepseek-flash, and Groq na di separate fallback wey dem set for am. OpenAI, OpenRouter, and Alibaba Cloud (Qwen) still be approved hosted providers, but dem no dey part of di canonical reader route and dem dey receive platform-selected text only if dem deliberately select am and disclose am through di governed provider configuration. If a creator set up their own text-generation credential, authoring requests wey dem make with that credential dey pinned to di provider wey di creator pick. Those requests no dey fall through to di platform reader route.
- We store session transcripts so you fit resume sessions
- We fit use combined anonymous data to improve AI quality
- We no use your personal interactions to train AI models with other users' content
- For text wey we send go third-party AI provider, we no dey control whether dat provider dey keep am or dey train on top wetin e receive. Na dat provider own terms dey govern am.
- If you turn on Story speech, Mystrix dey make am for Mystrix own voice box: di sanitized spoken prose, di language wey e dey, and di in-house designed voice identity wey you pick, Mystrix infrastructure dey process dem and e no dey go any hosted speech provider at all. Story speech dey off unless you turn am on. Mystrix dey keep each result wey e accept well well and dey use am again for matching speech recipes and playback, so normal replay no dey process di text again. If you no know wetin happen to one render, di next preparation attempt go use di same content key, so render wey di voice box don finish go dey collected instead of making am again. If you generate one sound effect, na di same Mystrix voice box dey render am: di effect description wey you write, 500 characters max, and duration wey you ask wey no pass 10 seconds, Mystrix infrastructure dey process dem and e no dey go any third party at all, and Mystrix dey store di measured result as your normal sound asset; generation get limit per day.
- Wen di classifier dey process di images and videos wey you upload, dem dey send one small copy of di image or, for video, one poster frame wey dem pull out, go DeepSeek so e go check am for safety by itself. DeepSeek dey use those pixels only to return safety scores; e no dey make or change images. OpenAI no dey receive those image copies or poster frames. For images wey you upload, if di safety check pass, e go approve am; if e fail, e go reject am; and if di check no dey available, e go stay pending for automatic retry wey get limit. If di retries finish, e go stay unavailable wit di real failure wey happen; images no dey ever enter human moderation review. Di candidates wey dem generate sef need one separate quality verdict wey pass before dem go use am. Video moderation still get di review workflow wey dem authorize. Na only Creator uploads wey dem don review and approve, or house-owned assets wey dem don review and approve, dem fit apply. Dis automatic check na help for moderation, e no mean say dem go catch every bad thing.
- Creators fit ask make dem generate or refine Story image with key wey dem enter for di open authoring session, or use di Mystrix image service where e dey enabled. Di OpenAI or Google Gemini provider wey dem select go receive di bounded scene brief and reference images wey di creator select. Z.ai image generation go receive only di bounded scene brief; di Z.ai quality check wey dey review im candidate also go receive di candidate and di reference images wey di creator select. Mystrix no dey store creator provider keys for im database; manual image action dey keep key small time for worker memory while di action dey run. Generated candidates and retained transparent sources go remain private working assets until dem apply approved finished frame. DeepSeek still dey limited to di safety-verification path wey we talk about above; e no be image-generation provider.
- If dem don approve and review one house-owned discovery or surface image, you fit use am again if im visual spec, rights evidence, and safety review match. Images wey creator upload still dey under di creator hand and dem no dey turn am to shared stock. Any full-frame scene image wey dem apply still dey bound to di exact account wey own am, di Story version, and di event.
