Terms of service
These terms govern your use of the 2-Min Recap browser extension, this website and the account site at app.2minrecap.com (together, the service). The service is operated by Tinkerforge Labs LLC ("we", "us"). By installing the extension or signing in, you agree to these terms and to our privacy policy. If you don't agree, don't use the service.
The service
2-Min Recap reads the transcript of a YouTube video you choose and uses an AI model to write a summary. It runs in Chrome on desktop. We may change, add or remove features, and we may limit or pause the service for maintenance, abuse or reasons outside our control. We don't promise it will always be available.
Your account
- You sign in with a Google account. You must be at least 13 years old (or older where your local law says so) and able to form a binding contract.
- Keep your Google account secure. You are responsible for what happens under your account.
- You can delete your account at any time in the extension or the app. See the privacy policy for what that removes.
Plans and limits
- Free includes 3 summaries a day. A long summary counts as 3.
- Plus costs $5 a month or $48 a year and includes up to 150 summaries a day and a limit of 40 an hour. We may also cap use that costs us far more than a typical user, to keep the service fair for everyone.
- Daily and hourly limits reset at your local midnight and hour.
- We may change plans, prices and limits. For paying subscribers, a price change applies from the next renewal and we tell you at least 30 days before.
Billing, renewal and cancelling
- You buy Plus through Link, Stripe's consumer service, which is the merchant of record: it sells you the subscription on our behalf, charges you, handles tax and sends your receipts. Link's own terms apply to the payment. Prices are in US dollars (checkout may show your local currency). Tax is added at checkout where it applies.
- Plus renews automatically every month or year, depending on the plan you pick, until you cancel.
- You can cancel at any time on the account page at app.2minrecap.com, under manage billing, or in your Link account. You keep Plus until the end of the period you paid for, and it doesn't renew.
- Refunds. If Plus isn't for you, email support@2minrecap.com within 14 days of your first Plus payment and we will refund it in full and end Plus. After that, or for renewals, payments aren't refunded, but you can cancel so the next one doesn't happen. Link may also grant refunds under its own refund policy. Where the law gives you a right to a refund or a cooling-off period, that right stays.
- If you delete your account, we cancel your subscription immediately. Apart from the 14-day refund above, we don't refund the rest of that period.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use scripts, bots or multiple accounts to get around limits;
- send us text that isn't the transcript of a real video, or use the service as a general AI endpoint;
- probe, overload or attack the service, or try to access other people's data;
- copy, resell or republish summaries at scale, or build a competing service from them;
- reverse engineer the service, except where the law allows it despite this term;
- use the service to break the law or someone's rights.
We may suspend or end accounts that break these rules.
YouTube and third-party content
YouTube is a trademark of Google. 2-Min Recap is independent and isn't affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Google or YouTube. Videos and their transcripts belong to their creators and to YouTube. The extension reads a transcript in your browser, with your own access to YouTube, only when you ask for a summary. You are responsible for following YouTube's terms and for how you use the summaries. They are for your personal use.
AI summaries can be wrong
Summaries are generated by an AI model from a transcript. They can miss points, get details wrong or reflect errors in the transcript, and they don't capture what is only shown on screen. They are not professional, medical, legal or financial advice. Check the video before you rely on a summary for anything that matters.
Your own OpenAI key
If you choose to use your own OpenAI API key, your requests go from your browser to OpenAI, not through us. Your use is under your agreement with OpenAI, you pay OpenAI, and we aren't responsible for that service or its charges.
Ownership
We own the service, including the software, the 2-Min Recap name and logo. We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the extension and the service under these terms. The summaries we generate for you are yours to use for personal purposes, subject to the rights of the video's creator in the underlying content. You give us permission to process the transcripts you submit and to store your summaries in your library, only as needed to run the service.
Feedback
If you send us ideas or suggestions, we may use them to improve the service without paying you or owing you anything. Please don't send anything you consider confidential.
Disclaimers
The service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, including that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free or fit for a particular purpose. The service depends on YouTube, which can change without notice and break features.
Limit of liability
To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, lost profits or lost data. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for the service in the 12 months before the claim and USD 50. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can't be limited by law, and you may have consumer rights that these terms can't remove.
If someone makes a claim against us because of you
If a third party makes a claim against us because you broke these terms or the law while using the service, you agree to cover our reasonable losses and costs from that claim, to the extent the law allows. This doesn't apply to claims caused by our own fault, and it doesn't take away rights you have as a consumer.
Ending these terms
You can stop using the service at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms, if the law requires it, or if we shut the service down. If we shut it down, we will give paying subscribers notice and refund the unused part of their current period. The sections on ownership, disclaimers, limit of liability, claims, governing law and the general terms below keep applying after these terms end.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Utah and of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes go to the state or federal courts located in Utah County, Utah. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the place where you live and may also bring a claim in your local courts.
General
- These terms and the privacy policy are the whole agreement between you and us about the service.
- We communicate with you electronically, by email or in the extension or app, and those messages count as being "in writing".
- If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, the rest still applies.
- If we don't enforce a term straight away, we can still enforce it later.
- You can't transfer these terms to someone else. We may transfer them to a company that takes over the service, and your rights under them stay the same.
Changes and contact
We may update these terms. If a change matters, we will update the date above and tell signed-in users at least 14 days before it takes effect. Using the service after that means you accept the new terms.
