Terms of Service

Effective September 10, 2026
We're finalizing our Terms of Service with a legal review.
Plain-language summary. You can use AssignAI to build and complete AI-guided assignments. Instructors own what they create; students own what they write. Instructors can read the transcripts of students in their courses. The Learning Assistant is a study aid, not a grader of record, and it can be wrong. Don't abuse the Service, and we may suspend accounts that do. These terms are governed by Oregon law.

1. Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and the AssignAI team ("AssignAI", "we", "us") covering your use of the AssignAI web application and related services (the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you are using the Service on behalf of an institution, you represent that you are authorized to do so.

2. Accounts and roles

  • You must provide accurate information and keep your password confidential. You are responsible for activity under your account.
  • Instructors create courses and assignments, invite students, and may view student sessions for assignments they own.
  • Students join courses through an invite link and complete assignments. By joining a course you acknowledge that the course's instructor can see your name, email, and your conversations with the Learning Assistant for that course's assignments.
  • You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction, to use the Service. The Service is intended for higher education.

3. Your content

You keep ownership of the content you create: instructors own their course and assignment materials, and students own the messages they write. You grant us a limited license to store, display, transmit to our service providers, and otherwise process that content solely to operate and improve the Service as described in the Privacy Policy. Instructors are responsible for having the rights to any material they upload or paste into the builder.

4. AI-generated content

  • The Learning Assistant and the instructor-side assistants (such as the Builder Assistant) generate text with a third-party AI model. Output may be inaccurate, incomplete, or biased. Verify anything that matters.
  • Assistant judgments such as "objective met" are aids for instructors, not grades. Any grade or academic decision is made by the instructor and their institution, not by AssignAI.
  • Instructors decide how AI use in their assignments is disclosed to students and how it fits their institution's academic-integrity policies.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service to harass, harm, or deceive anyone, or to generate content that is unlawful.
  • Attempt to access another user's account, data, or sessions, or to reverse engineer the Service or its prompts.
  • Send automated or excessive requests. The Service enforces per-account rate limits and may refuse requests that exceed them.
  • Upload malware or content you do not have the right to share.
  • Resell the Service or use it to build a competing product without our written consent.

6. Pilot and beta features

The Service is under active development. Features may change, be removed, or be offered on a trial basis. We may set usage limits and adjust them. During pilots we may ask for feedback; you agree we can use that feedback without obligation to you.

7. Fees

The Service is currently provided without charge for pilots. If we introduce paid plans, pricing and payment terms will be presented before you are charged, and these Terms will be updated.

8. Privacy and education records

Our Privacy Policy explains what we collect and where it goes, including a data-flow statement. Where the Service is used with an institution's education records, we act under the direction of the instructor or institution and use those records only to provide the Service.

9. Suspension and termination

You may stop using the Service at any time and may ask us to delete your account. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or create risk for other users, with notice where practical. Sections 3, 4, 10, 11, and 12 survive termination.

10. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE OR AI-GENERATED OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR ERROR-FREE.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ASSIGNAI WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THESE LIMITATIONS, SO THEY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

12. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Multnomah County, Oregon, and you consent to their jurisdiction. Before filing, you agree to contact us and give us 30 days to try to resolve the issue.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We will post the new version here with a new effective date and, for material changes, notify signed-in users in the app. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the updated Terms.

14. Contact

Our contact details for legal notices will be listed here once these terms are finalized.
