By accessing or using Akrasia ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

Akrasia is an AI-powered writing and paraphrasing engine that uses artificial intelligence models to transform text. The Service operates on a pay-as-you-go credit system. Each paraphrasing operation consumes one (1) credit.

  • You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account.
  • You must not share your account or allow unauthorized access.
  • You must be at least 13 years old to use this Service.
  • One account per person. Creating multiple accounts to exploit credits is a violation of these Terms.

4. Credits & Payment

  • Credits are purchased through our Merchant of Record partner, Polar.sh. Polar handles all billing, payment processing, invoicing, and local tax compliance.
  • Credits are non-refundable once purchased, except where required by applicable law.
  • Credits are consumed only upon successful text generation. Failed API calls do not consume credits.
  • Credits do not expire.
  • We reserve the right to change credit pricing at any time. Existing purchased credits will not be affected.

  • Academic or professional misconduct.
  • Legal liability from content that violates third-party rights.
  • Factual inaccuracies in generated text.

8. Service Availability

We strive for 99.9% uptime, but the Service is provided "as available." We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service at any time with reasonable notice.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Akrasia and its owners, employees, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of the Service.

Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you have paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

10. Account Suspension, Blocking & Termination

We reserve the right to immediately suspend, block, or terminate your account and access to the Service at any time, without prior notice or liability, if we determine in our sole discretion that you have violated these Terms. This includes, but is not limited to, platform abuse, rate-limit circumvention, reverse engineering, script/bot automation, exploitation of the credit system, or submitting abusive/offensive content.

Upon account suspension or blocking:

  • Your access to the web interface, dashboards, and APIs will be revoked immediately.
  • Any remaining unused credits in your account will be immediately forfeited and are strictly non-refundable.
  • You are strictly prohibited from registering new accounts to evade this suspension. Attempting to do so will result in immediate bans of the new accounts.
