Terms &
conditions.

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. The Service is not directed to, and may not be used by, children under 13.

If you are between 13 and 17 years old (or below the age of legal majority where you live), you may use the Service only with the permission of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf and accepts responsibility for your use of the Service.

By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements, that any registration information you provide is accurate, and that you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service.

Lectify is a study tool for students. It lets you record or upload lecture audio, attach slide files, and generate transcripts, structured notes, flashcards, quizzes, study sessions, and related study materials using artificial-intelligence systems, including third-party AI providers.

The Service is under active development. We may add, change, limit, or remove features, models, processing pipelines, storage allowances, and usage limits at any time. Where a change materially reduces the core functionality of a paid plan mid-cycle, your remedy is to cancel as described in Section 10.

We do not guarantee that the Service, or any particular feature, will always be available, uninterrupted, or error-free, and we do not guarantee that stored content will never be lost. You are responsible for keeping your own copies of any content you cannot afford to lose.

“User Content” means everything you record, upload, or create through the Service — lecture recordings, slide files, transcripts you edit, notes, feedback text, and similar material. You retain all ownership rights in your User Content. These Terms do not transfer ownership of your content to us.

So that we can operate the Service, you grant Lectify a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, transmit, adapt (for example, transcribing audio or reformatting notes), and display your User Content — solely to provide, maintain, secure, and improve the Service for you, and as otherwise permitted by our Privacy Policy. This license includes sending your User Content to the third-party service providers we use to deliver features (such as transcription and AI note generation). The license ends when your User Content is deleted from the Service, except for limited backup and legal-compliance retention described in the Privacy Policy.

We do not use your User Content to train our own AI models, and we do not sell it.

You are solely responsible for your User Content. You represent and warrant that you own it or have all rights, permissions, and consents necessary to upload it and to grant the license above, and that it does not violate any law or the rights of any person.

Recording other people — including instructors and classmates — is regulated by laws that vary by state and country, and by the policies of your school or institution. Some jurisdictions require the consent of everyone being recorded.

You are solely responsible for ensuring that any recording you make or upload complies with all applicable recording and wiretap laws, your institution's policies, and any instructor requirements, and for obtaining any consents required. Lectify does not and cannot verify that you had the right to make a recording, and we assume no responsibility for recordings made without required consent or permission.

Transcripts, notes, flashcards, quizzes, study sessions, estimated grades, and similar outputs are generated by automated AI systems. AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or misleading, and may omit or misstate material from your lectures. The “Estimated Grade” and similar readiness indicators are statistical estimates, not predictions or promises of any actual academic result.

You must independently verify AI-generated content before relying on it — especially for exams, assignments, or any decision that matters to you. AI output is provided for general study purposes only and is not professional, legal, medical, financial, or academic advice.

You agree not to misuse the Service. In particular, you will not:

• upload or record content you do not have the right to use, or that infringes any copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other right;
• use the Service for any unlawful purpose, or to harass, harm, or defame any person;
• upload malicious code or content designed to disrupt the Service;
• probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service, bypass authentication or access controls, or access data belonging to other users;
• circumvent, manipulate, or abuse usage limits, metering, free-tier allowances, or the referral program (including through multiple or automated accounts);
• scrape, crawl, or bulk-download the Service or use it to build a competing product or to train machine-learning models;
• reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service except where that restriction is prohibited by law;
• resell, rent, or provide the Service to third parties as a service bureau; or
• impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation with anyone.

We may investigate suspected violations and may remove content, throttle usage, or suspend or terminate accounts that violate this section.

Except where required by law, all payments are final and non-refundable, including for partially used billing periods, unused usage allowances, downgrades, or dissatisfaction with AI output quality.

If we materially fail to deliver the paid Service (for example, a billing error charges you for a plan you did not have), contact us and we will correct the error, which may include a refund or credit at our discretion. Nothing in this section limits any non-waivable statutory rights you have in your place of residence.

Lectify may offer referral rewards for inviting new users. Referral rewards are promotional, have no cash value, are non-transferable, and may be changed, limited, or discontinued at any time.

Rewards obtained through self-referral, fake or duplicate accounts, automation, or other abuse may be revoked, and the accounts involved may be suspended.

The Service depends on third-party providers — including payment processing (Stripe), sign-in (Google), email delivery, hosting, transcription, and AI model providers. Your use of features powered by those providers may also be subject to their terms. We are not responsible for third-party services, and outages or changes on their side may affect the Service.

We respect intellectual-property rights and expect users to do the same. If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to support@lectify.aithat includes: (a) identification of the copyrighted work; (b) identification and location of the allegedly infringing material; (c) your contact information; (d) a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; (e) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act for the owner; and (f) your physical or electronic signature. We may remove content that we determine infringes and may terminate repeat infringers’ accounts.

THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT AND OUTPUT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT TRANSCRIPTS, NOTES, OR OTHER AI-GENERATED OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE, OR THAT STORED CONTENT WILL NOT BE LOST.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (A) LECTIFY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, ACADEMIC CONSEQUENCES, OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; AND (B) LECTIFY'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (i) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (ii) FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (USD $50).

THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF A REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED BY LAW.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY — IT REQUIRES INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION OF MOST DISPUTES AND WAIVES JURY TRIALS AND CLASS ACTIONS.

Informal resolution first. Before starting arbitration or any court proceeding, you and we each agree to first send the other a written notice describing the dispute and the relief sought (to us: support@lectify.ai; to you: your account email) and to attempt in good faith to resolve it informally for 60 days after the notice is received. Most concerns can be resolved this way.

Binding arbitration.If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator, in English, and may proceed by videoconference, by telephone, on written submissions, or in the county where you reside. Payment of filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute about the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this arbitration agreement.

Exceptions. Either party may (a) bring an individual claim in small-claims court if it qualifies, and (b) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court to protect intellectual-property rights or prevent unauthorized access to the Service.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER: YOU AND LECTIFY EACH AGREE THAT DISPUTES MAY BE BROUGHT ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON. IF THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS FOUND UNENFORCEABLE AS TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM, THAT CLAIM (AND ONLY THAT CLAIM) MUST PROCEED IN COURT, AND THE REMAINDER OF THIS SECTION REMAINS IN EFFECT.

30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement and class-action waiver by emailing support@lectify.aiwithin 30 days of first accepting these Terms, from your account email, with the subject “Arbitration opt-out” and your name. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.

These Terms and any dispute arising out of them or the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Indiana and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. For any claim that is not subject to arbitration under Section 20, you and we consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Indiana, and you waive any objection to that venue. Nothing in this section deprives you of protections you cannot waive under the consumer-protection laws of your place of residence.

• Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and Lectify about the Service and supersede any prior agreements.
• Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted and the rest of the Terms remain in effect.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them in connection with a reorganization, sale, or transfer of the Service — including to a company formed to operate Lectify — and they will bind and benefit successors and permitted assigns.
• Force majeure. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages of third-party providers, natural disasters, or acts of government.
• Electronic communications. You consent to receive notices and communications about the Service electronically, at your account email or in the app, and agree they satisfy any legal writing requirement.
