Cathay Ink

Terms

Please read these before you buy. Using the site means you accept them.

What we make

From the name you give us we propose Chinese names, and we produce artwork: calligraphy generated by an image model from reviewed characters, seals set in a seal-script typeface, posters, stencils, certificates and zodiac posters.

Names and meanings

Candidate names are proposed by a language model within rules we set, and are reviewed by a native Mandarin speaker only where the product says so (tattoo designs and certificates of meaning). A certificate documents the meaning of characters; it is not a translation of a legal name and does not make the name official anywhere.

Not a legal signature

Calligraphy and signature designs are art for personal use. They are not a specimen of anyone's legal signature. Do not use them to imitate another person's signature.

What you may enter

Only your own name, or a name you have permission to use. We decline some public figures and sensitive names.

Payment and refunds

Payments are collected by Creem as merchant of record, which handles tax and receipts. Digital products are delivered on generation and are not refundable for change of mind. If nothing could be generated or files cannot be downloaded, write to us and we will refund after checking.

Your rights to the files

You may use the files for personal purposes: printing, framing, tattoos, avatars, signatures on your own work. AI-generated images may not be protected by copyright in some jurisdictions; we make no promise about that.

No warranty

The service is provided as is, without warranty of any kind about the results.
