Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of MiniBrief — the website, the waitlist, and the MiniBrief browser extension. By using any of them, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use MiniBrief.

1. What MiniBrief is

MiniBrief is an AI-powered browser extension that brings your Gmail and Outlook email, together with your Google Calendar, into a single side panel and uses AI to generate summaries, meeting briefs, action items, and triage. We may add, change, or remove features over time.

2. Eligibility, accounts, and license

You must be at least 16 years old and able to form a binding contract to use MiniBrief. By using MiniBrief, you represent that you meet these requirements.

Using the extension requires a MiniBrief account. We grant you a personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the extension for its intended purpose. You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure and for activity under your account. You agree not to reverse engineer, resell, or misuse the extension, and not to use it to violate the terms of your email provider or any law.

3. Connected accounts

To work, MiniBrief connects to your Google and/or Microsoft accounts with your permission, as described in our Privacy Policy. You may revoke that access at any time.

4. Subscriptions and billing

Some features require a paid subscription.

• New users may begin with a 7-day free trial. You will not be charged during the trial, and you may cancel before it ends to avoid being charged.
• After the trial, your subscription begins and is billed in advance on a recurring basis through our payment processor, Stripe, and renews automatically until you cancel.
• You can cancel at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period.
• Except where required by law, fees are non-refundable once charged.
• Prices may change with notice.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to: submit other people’s data without permission; attempt to disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to MiniBrief or its providers; or use MiniBrief for any unlawful or abusive purpose.

6. AI-generated content

Summaries, briefs, action items, and triage categories are generated by AI and may be incomplete or inaccurate. They are meant to assist you, not replace your own review. Do not rely on AI output for decisions requiring accuracy without checking the underlying messages yourself.

7. Fair use

To keep the Service reliable and affordable for everyone, AI features are subject to a fair-use limit of 120 AI requests per user per day. We may adjust this limit, and we may throttle, suspend, or limit accounts that materially exceed normal individual use or that attempt to circumvent the limit.

8. Intellectual property

The MiniBrief name, logo, site content, and design are owned by us and may not be copied or reused without permission. Third-party names (such as Gmail, Outlook, Chrome, and Firefox) belong to their respective owners and are used only for description. You keep all rights to your own email and content; we claim no ownership of it.

9. Third-party services

MiniBrief relies on third-party services including Google, Microsoft, Anthropic, Supabase, and Stripe. Your use of those services is also subject to their terms, and we are not responsible for their acts or omissions.

10. No warranty

MiniBrief is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that AI output will be accurate.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, MiniBrief and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or any loss of data, profits, or revenue, arising from your use of or inability to use MiniBrief. Our total liability for any claim will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or US $100.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless MiniBrief and its operators from any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your misuse of MiniBrief, your violation of these terms or any law, your infringement of any third party’s rights, or any data or content you submit through MiniBrief.

13. Termination

You may stop using MiniBrief and disconnect your accounts at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you violate these terms or to protect the service or other users. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, and the general terms below) will continue to apply.

14. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to the dispute-resolution section below, any disputes will be resolved in the state and federal courts located in the State of New York, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

15. Dispute resolution; arbitration and class-action waiver

Please read this section carefully — it affects how disputes are resolved and limits your right to sue in court or participate in a class action.

Except as set out below, you and MiniBrief agree to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to these terms or MiniBrief through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. You and MiniBrief waive any right to a jury trial and agree that disputes will be brought only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, consolidated, or representative proceeding.

This does not apply to: claims that qualify for small-claims court, or requests for injunctive or equitable relief to stop infringement or misuse of intellectual property. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing legal@minibrief.app within 30 days of first accepting these terms; opting out will not affect the other terms. Where applicable law prohibits binding arbitration or a class-action waiver, this section does not apply to you to that extent.

16. General

These terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and MiniBrief and supersede any prior understandings. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest will remain in full force, and the unenforceable provision will be applied to the maximum extent permitted. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign or transfer these terms without our consent; we may assign them, for example as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with notice to you.

17. Changes and contact

We may update these terms as the product develops; the “Last updated” date above will change accordingly. Questions can be sent to legal@minibrief.app.
