Terms of Service
These terms govern your use of Akiri (the "Service"), operated by Akiri Technologies Group LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company registered at 30 N Gould St, Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801, United States ("Akiri", "we", "us"). By creating an account or using the app, you agree to them.
1. The Service
Akiri turns material you upload into an AI-assisted study experience: grounded chat and coaching, practice tests, flashcards, lessons and progress tracking. It's a study aid, not a substitute for your course's official materials, your instructors, or your own judgment — always verify important academic content against your syllabus or instructor.
2. Your account
You're responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and for keeping your credentials secure. You must be at least 13 years old to use Akiri; if you are under the age of digital consent where you live, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms with you. You can delete your account at any time from Me → Privacy → Delete Account; this permanently removes your data and cannot be undone.
3. Your content
You own the material you upload and the content you generate. You grant Akiri a limited, non-exclusive licence to store and process it solely to provide the Service to you — grounding AI answers, generating flashcards and lessons, tracking your progress. We do not use your material to train AI models. Don't upload material you don't have the right to use.
4. Plans, prices and how billing works
Akiri has a Free plan and a paid plan, Plus.
Prices. Plus is US$9.99 per month or US$89.99 per year. Where checkout in South African rand is available, it is R149 per month or R1,349 per year; until then, South African purchases are charged in US dollars. Prices are shown including any tax we are required to charge, and are confirmed on the purchase screen before you pay — that screen, not this page, is the price you are agreeing to. We may change prices for future billing periods and will tell you before a change affects you.
How you pay. Which rail you are on determines who you are contracting with for the payment and who you cancel with:
| Where you subscribed | Who takes the payment | Where to cancel |
|---|---|---|
| Inside the iOS app | Apple, through your Apple Account | iOS Settings → your name → Subscriptions |
| On the web at akiri.app | Stripe, on our behalf | Me → Plan → Cancel, inside Akiri |
Auto-renewal. Plus renews automatically at the end of each period — every month for a monthly plan, every year for an annual one — at the then-current price, until you cancel. On iOS, Apple charges your Apple Account within 24 hours before the period ends unless you turn renewal off at least 24 hours before that. We show your next renewal date in the app.
Cancelling. You can cancel at any time and keep your access until the end of the period you have already paid for. Cancelling does not delete your account or your material; deleting your account is separate and does not by itself cancel an Apple subscription.
The Finals Pass, where offered, is a single payment for access through an exam season. It is not a subscription, it does not renew, and there is nothing to cancel.
5. Refunds
If you bought on iOS, Apple handles refunds, not us. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com; Apple's decision is Apple's, and we cannot override it.
If you bought on the web, email hello@akiri.app.
- EU, UK and other withdrawal-right jurisdictions: you have a 14-day right to withdraw from a distance contract. Digital services start immediately at your request, and by starting you acknowledge you may lose that right once the service has been fully performed — but we will refund an unused period within 14 days of purchase on request anyway.
- South Africa: your rights under the Consumer Protection Act and ECT Act §44, including the 7-day cooling-off period for electronic transactions where it applies, are unaffected by anything in these terms.
- Everywhere else: we will refund the current period if you ask within 14 days of being charged and have not made substantial use of it.
6. The Free plan and usage limits
The Free plan has limits on how much you can generate and how many subjects you can keep. We may change those limits; if a change reduces what you already have, we will tell you in the app before it takes effect. Plus has fair-use limits to keep the service running for everyone, described on the pricing screen.
7. Acceptable use
Don't use Akiri to violate your institution's academic integrity policies, to upload unlawful or infringing content, or to attempt to disrupt or reverse-engineer the Service.
8. AI-generated content
Practice questions, summaries, flashcards, lessons and coaching responses are generated by AI models and may occasionally be incomplete or inaccurate. You are dealing with an AI system, not a human tutor. Use your own judgment and check against your course material before relying on anything for graded work.
9. Availability and changes
We may update, change or discontinue features, and may update these terms from time to time. We'll make reasonable efforts to flag material changes in the app before they take effect. If a change to these terms is material and you don't accept it, you may cancel and we will refund the unused part of a period you have already paid for.
10. Termination
You may stop using Akiri and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. If we terminate your account for a reason other than your breach, we will refund the unused part of a period you have paid for.
11. Disclaimer and liability
The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the extent permitted by law, Akiri is not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, and our total liability to you for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law — including your statutory rights as a consumer in the EU, the UK and South Africa.
12. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and the courts of Wyoming have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer in the EU, the UK or South Africa, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory consumer law of the country you live in, or of your right to bring proceedings there.
