Terms of Service

Terms of Service

These Terms govern use of AI Rank Watch, an independent AI visibility checker operated by a personal operator. By using AI Rank Watch, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

What AI Rank Watch does

AI Rank Watch helps users create an explainable AI visibility snapshot for selected prompts, selected sources or demo/sample modes, and a specific timestamp. Reports may show observed mention presence, citation presence, approximate answer prominence, competitor presence, score components, source coverage, and limitations.

AI Rank Watch is not an official metric from OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Microsoft, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, or any other third-party AI/search platform.

Beta and availability limits

The current v0 is free and may operate in demo/sample, queued, limited, unavailable, manual, or approved-source modes. Features may change, pause, or be discontinued. We may limit usage to protect cost, reliability, source availability, abuse prevention, and compliance.

If live/provider source checks are not approved or configured, AI Rank Watch may show demo/sample output or record a waitlist/request instead of producing live source data.

User responsibilities

• Provide only information you have the right to submit.
• Avoid submitting secrets, API keys, passwords, confidential prompts, regulated personal data, private customer data, or unlawful content.
• Use reports as informational snapshots, not as deterministic rankings or guaranteed outcomes.
• Respect rate limits, abuse controls, and any source/method limitations shown in the product.
• Do not attempt to scrape, overload, bypass, reverse engineer, or misuse the service.
• Do not use AI Rank Watch output to imply official affiliation, certification, endorsement, sponsorship, guaranteed rankings, guaranteed visibility, guaranteed citations, traffic, revenue, leads, or other business outcomes.

Reports, sharing, and deletion

Generated report links should be opaque and unlisted or access-controlled where appropriate. Anyone with an unlisted report link may be able to view it until it expires, is deleted, or access controls change. Do not share report links if they contain information you consider sensitive.

Saved reports are retained for up to 1 week in current v0 unless deleted earlier or retained longer for security, abuse-prevention, or legal/compliance reasons. You can request deletion by contacting shenyanying33 [at] gmail [dot] com or using any self-serve deletion path provided in the product.

Paid subscriptions, billing, cancellation, and refunds

AI Rank Watch may offer Free Snapshot, Pro Monitoring, Agency Pilot, or other plans. Paid checkout is available only when the site clearly indicates that billing is active and a server-side checkout session is created through Creem. If checkout is not clearly available on the page, no checkout is live and no paid entitlement is granted.

Paid plans are subscription services unless expressly stated otherwise. Subscription fees, billing period, plan limits, source coverage, history, report quotas, and any trial terms are shown at checkout or on the pricing page before purchase. Prices may be shown in USD and may be subject to applicable taxes or fees handled through the payment provider or Merchant of Record.

Subscriptions renew automatically for the stated billing period until canceled. You can manage payment methods, invoices, and cancellation through the Creem customer portal when available, or by contacting support at shenyanying33 [at] gmail [dot] com. Cancellation stops future renewals but does not guarantee a refund for the current billing period unless the applicable checkout terms, law, or support decision provide otherwise.

Refund requests should be sent to shenyanying33 [at] gmail [dot] com with enough information to locate the order, such as account email, plan, checkout/order ID, and purchase date. Refund eligibility may depend on payment status, subscription state, usage, abuse/security review, chargeback/dispute status, applicable law, and Creem or Merchant-of-Record rules.

Paid monitoring remains source-limited. A paid plan does not guarantee live access to every AI/search platform, deterministic ranking, ranking improvement, citations, traffic, revenue, leads, conversions, or any business outcome. If no approved live AI/search provider is configured, paid features must be described as setup-required, beta, queued, demo/sample, source-limited, or unavailable as applicable.

Account requirement for paid features

Paid checkout, billing status, customer portal access, invoices, cancellation handling, and paid entitlements require a signed-in account. You are responsible for maintaining access to the account email used for checkout and for reviewing plan limits, source coverage, renewal terms, cancellation information, refund request process, and current Terms and Privacy Policy before purchase.

No guarantees and no professional advice

AI Rank Watch reports are informational product analytics, not legal, financial, SEO, investment, marketing, or professional advice. AI/search outputs vary by prompt, time, source, model, account state, location, personalization, index state, and other factors.

We do not guarantee deterministic AI rankings; rank #1 or any stable position in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, or other platforms; complete or all-engine coverage; 100% accuracy; live real-time coverage across all AI/search systems; or traffic, revenue, leads, citations, recommendations, conversions, or business outcomes.

Third-party platforms and nominative use

Third-party names may be used only to describe sources, surfaces, models, products, or platforms users may care about. AI Rank Watch is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, certified by, approved by, or officially connected to OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Microsoft, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, or any other third-party AI/search platform.

Any source-specific route or report section must accurately state the approved method and limitations. Do not infer privileged access or scraping approval from the presence of a platform name.

Acceptable use, suspension, and changes

We may block, throttle, delete, suspend, or refuse requests that appear abusive, unlawful, unsafe, misleading, technically harmful, source-terms risky, or inconsistent with these Terms. We may also remove demo/sample or generated reports that are outdated, expired, unsafe, misleading, or no longer supported.

We may update these Terms as the product changes. Material changes to paid plans, accounts, live source providers, integrations, longer retention, or materially different data uses must be reflected in the Terms and Privacy Policy before those changed features are made public.

Claims Policy

AI Rank Watch uses conservative product claims because AI/search visibility is variable, source-limited, and not an official ranking system.

• Observed snapshot.
• Selected prompts and selected source coverage.
• Timestamped report.
• Explainable score components.
• Mention presence, citation presence, and approximate answer prominence.

Required claim boundary: Results are observed snapshots for selected prompts and source coverage at a point in time. They are not official platform metrics, deterministic rankings, or guarantees of future visibility or business outcomes.

AI Rank Watch is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, certified by, or approved by OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Microsoft, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, or other third-party AI/search platforms.
