These terms are an agreement between you and Zeno Services, LLC, a New York limited liability company ("we"), for your use of Chavruti: the website at chavruti.ai, the app at app.chavruti.ai, and the connector at api.chavruti.ai (together, "the service"). By using the service you agree to them.

What Chavruti is

Chavruti is a learning tool. It provides texts, pronunciations, a method and a record of your learning to the AI assistant you connect, and shows your progress in the app. Your assistant does the teaching.

Not a rabbinic ruling, and not a substitute for a teacher. Explanations are educational, and readings are presented as views, each labeled with its lens. For a question of practice, Chavruti points you to your own rabbi or community. Assistants can make mistakes. When the wording of a text matters, check it against the text Chavruti returns and its source.

Your account

You must be at least 18 and able to enter this agreement. A parent may learn with a child on the parent's account.
Keep your sign-in and your assistant keys private. You're responsible for activity under them. Revoke a key you no longer trust.

Your assistant

When you connect an AI assistant, it acts on your instructions, and its provider's terms and privacy policy apply to your use of it. Whether your assistant supports custom connectors on your plan is between you and its provider.

Free trial and subscription

Price. Chavruti costs $10 a month or $100 a year, plus any sales tax that applies.
Free trial. New accounts start with a 14-day free trial. No card is needed to start. To continue after the trial, you add a card in the app before or after it ends. Nothing is charged during the trial. We'll email you at least three days before the trial ends.
Automatic renewal. If you've added a card, your subscription starts when the trial ends (or when you add the card, if the trial has already ended), unless you cancel first. Your card is charged the price of the plan you chose then, and again at the start of each month or year after that, until you cancel.
Cancelling. You can cancel at any time in Settings in the app, or by emailing support@chavruti.ai. If you cancel during the trial, you're never charged. If you cancel later, you keep full use until the end of the period you paid for, and you're not charged again. Payments already made aren't refunded, except where the law requires it.
If a payment fails, we'll tell you and retry. You can update your card in Settings.
When a trial or subscription ends, your record stays readable in the app and in your assistant, but recording new learning and review pauses until you subscribe again. Nothing is deleted for not paying.
Price changes. We'll tell you in advance before a new price applies to you, and you can cancel before it does.
Payments are processed by Helcim.

Texts and licenses

The texts in Chavruti come from openly licensed sources, listed with their licenses at chavruti.ai/sources. Your use of a text is also governed by its own license. Some (CC BY-SA) require that works derived from them be shared under the same license. Chavruti's own software, method, pronunciation data and design are ours.

Your data

Your settings and your learning record belong to you. You give us permission to store and process them only to provide the service, as described in the privacy policy. We don't sell them, use them for advertising, or train AI models on them.

Acceptable use

Don't misuse the service. That means no breaking in or probing other learners' data, no interfering with its operation, no bulk copying of the service through automated access beyond your own learning, no using it to break the law, and no reselling access.

Changes and ending

We may change or discontinue features. You can stop using Chavruti and ask us to delete your data at any time. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or puts others at risk, and where we can, we'll tell you why. If we shut the service down, we'll give you notice, refund any unused prepaid time, and give you a way to get a copy of your record.

Disclaimers

The service is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and the accuracy of texts, translations, pronunciations and explanations. We don't promise the service will be uninterrupted or error-free.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Zeno Services, LLC won't be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim and $100. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not apply to you in full.

Law

New York law governs these terms, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Disputes go to the state or federal courts in New York County, New York, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring them locally.

Changes to these terms

If we change these terms in a way that matters, we'll tell signed-in users before the change takes effect. If you keep using the service after that, you accept the new terms.
