What is pluginmaker.ai?

pluginmaker.ai is an AI-powered platform that lets you create professional VST and AU audio plugins without writing any code. Describe your plugin idea in plain English and the AI builds it for you.

Do I need coding experience to make a VST plugin?

No. pluginmaker.ai handles all the technical work. You describe what you want — a synthesizer, effect, or audio tool — and the AI generates the DSP code, user interface, and compiled plugin files for you.

What DAWs are supported?

Plugins generated by pluginmaker.ai work in all major DAWs including Logic Pro, Ableton Live, FL Studio, Cubase, Reaper, Studio One, and any other DAW that supports VST3 or AU formats.

What types of plugins can I create?

You can create synthesizers, audio effects (reverb, delay, distortion, EQ, compression, and more), and other audio processing tools. The AI uses Faust DSP to generate professional-quality audio code.

Does it work on Mac and Windows?

Yes. pluginmaker.ai generates both VST3 plugins for Windows and AU plugins for macOS. You can download and install them directly into your DAW's plugin folder.

Plugins you create using PluginMaker belong to you. You retain full ownership of the generated DSP code, user interface, and compiled plugin binaries. PluginMaker does not claim any intellectual property rights over your generated plugins.

However, generated plugins may use PluginMaker's proprietary libraries (e.g., pluginmaker.lib) under a runtime license. You may freely distribute compiled plugins but may not extract, redistribute, or sublicense the underlying library source code.

5. Marketplace

5.1 Overview

PluginMaker operates a marketplace where users can list plugins for sale and other users can purchase them. PluginMaker acts as a marketplace facilitator, not as the seller. Each transaction is between the buyer and the seller.

5.2 Selling Plugins

To sell plugins, you must complete Stripe Connect onboarding and agree to these additional terms:

You represent that you have the right to sell the plugins you list
You are responsible for the quality and accuracy of your listings
PluginMaker charges a 10% commission on each sale, deducted automatically via Stripe
Payouts are handled by Stripe according to their Express account terms
PluginMaker may remove listings that violate these Terms or are reported for quality issues

5.3 Buying Plugins

When you purchase a plugin, you receive a copy of that plugin in your account. This is a license to use the plugin, not a transfer of intellectual property. Specifically:

You may use the purchased plugin for personal and commercial audio production
You may not resell, redistribute, or sublicense the plugin
You may not modify the plugin (purchased plugins are read-only)
You may download and install the plugin on your own devices

5.4 Refund Policy

Due to the digital nature of plugins, all sales are generally final. However, we may issue refunds at our discretion in cases of:

Technical issues that prevent the plugin from functioning
Significantly misleading listing descriptions
Duplicate purchases

To request a refund, contact us at dominik@pluginmaker.ai within 14 days of purchase.

6. Payments

All payments are processed by Stripe. By making a purchase or receiving payouts, you agree to Stripe's Terms of Service. PluginMaker does not store credit card information.

7. Intellectual Property Complaints

If you believe a marketplace listing infringes your intellectual property rights, contact us at dominik@pluginmaker.ai with details of the alleged infringement. We will investigate and may remove the listing.

8. Limitation of Liability

PluginMaker is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any damages arising from your use of the platform, including but not limited to lost profits, data loss, or damage to audio equipment. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid to PluginMaker in the 12 months prior to the claim.

9. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account at any time for violation of these Terms. You may delete your account at any time. Upon termination, your right to use the platform ceases, but these Terms survive to the extent necessary.

10. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes via email or a notice on the platform. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Germany. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Berlin, Germany.
