Terms of Service

Plain-language summary. A formal version will replace this once a lawyer has read it.

Intro

These are the basic terms for using baki.sh, a YouTube reading companion. The brief version is below. By installing the extension or paying for Pro, you agree to them. If anything here is unclear, email [email protected] and we'll fix it.

What we provide

baki.sh is a Chrome extension that summarizes YouTube videos using LLMs. It runs against YouTube transcripts and a small backend we host. We try to keep it working; we don't promise it always will.

What you agree to

  • Don't use baki.sh to scrape, abuse, or resell our backend's output.
  • Don't try to bypass rate limits, billing, or our anti-abuse measures (see /privacy).
  • You're responsible for what you do with the summaries baki.sh generates. They're a starting point, not gospel.
  • Don't use baki.sh on content you're not allowed to view.

Pro plan

Pro is €3/mo or €29/yr, billed via Stripe. Cancel any time from the extension popup. 30-day no-questions refund: email [email protected] and you'll get it back.

If we have to stop

If baki.sh becomes legally unavailable, technically unsustainable, or we otherwise have to discontinue the service, your subscription ends at the end of the current billing cycle. We don't owe you anything past that. We will stop new charges immediately and try to keep the extension running for as long as we reasonably can before the lights go out.

Anti-abuse

We deploy rate-limiting, captcha challenges, and degraded service for traffic that matches automated-scraping patterns. If you think you've been caught by mistake, email [email protected]. Human review within 48h.

Liability

We do our best, but baki.sh is provided as-is. Summaries may be wrong. Don't make consequential decisions based on a 30-second TL;DR without checking the source. We're not liable for what you do with what baki.sh tells you.

Changes

If we change these terms in any meaningful way, we'll mention it on /transparency before it takes effect.
