Download the generation certificate PDF for a sound effect
Download the generation certificate for one of your sound effects — the same formal, single-page PDF as track certificates, issued by Riku AI LLC and confirming the sound effect was generated by you on Finetuning.
One certificate covers the whole sound-effect request; the title and duration on the certificate come from the request's first clip.
