Terms & Conditions

Last updated: May 19, 2026

1. Who we are

Hooksmith ("Hooksmith", "we", "us", or "our") is operated by KurtzLieb Technology LLC. By creating an account or using the service you are entering into a contract with KurtzLieb Technology LLC.

2. Acceptance of terms

By accessing or continuing to use Hooksmith you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service. You confirm that you are of legal age and, if signing up on behalf of an organization, that you have authority to bind that organization.

3. The service

Hooksmith is a software-as-a-service tool that uses generative AI to produce written content ideas, headlines and hook suggestions for topics and platforms that you provide. We offer a free tier with limited monthly generations and a paid "Pro" tier with expanded usage and additional features.

4. Acceptable use

You must not misuse Hooksmith. In particular, you must not:

  • Use the service for any unlawful purpose, or to generate content that is illegal in your jurisdiction;
  • Use the service to commit fraud, send spam, or impersonate another person or organization;
  • Generate content that infringes the intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of third parties;
  • Generate hate speech, harassment, sexual content involving minors, deepfakes, malware, or content designed to deceive;
  • Attempt to probe, scan, scrape, reverse engineer, or otherwise interfere with the security or integrity of the service;
  • Attempt to jailbreak, prompt-inject or otherwise circumvent the safety controls of the underlying AI models;
  • Resell, redistribute, or sublicense access to the service without our written consent.

5. AI-generated content

You are responsible for the prompts and topics you submit, for verifying the accuracy of any output, for ensuring you have the rights to any content you input, and for how you use, publish, or distribute outputs. AI output may be inaccurate, biased, or otherwise unsuitable for a given purpose and must not be relied upon as professional advice (legal, medical, financial, or otherwise) without independent verification.

As between you and us, you retain ownership of the topics you submit and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, of the outputs generated for you. We reserve the right to refuse, filter, or remove outputs and to suspend accounts that repeatedly produce prohibited content. If a rights holder believes content generated through Hooksmith infringes their rights, they may contact us and we will act on credible takedown requests; repeat infringers will have their accounts terminated.

6. Intellectual property

Hooksmith, including its software, design, branding, and documentation, is owned by KurtzLieb Technology LLC and is protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the service within the limits of your chosen plan. No other rights are granted by implication.

7. Accounts

You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to provide accurate registration information and to keep it up to date. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use of your account.

8. Payment, billing and subscriptions

Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries and handles returns. Payment terms, billing frequency, taxes, currency conversion, renewals, and cancellations are governed by the Paddle Checkout Buyer Terms available at paddle.com/legal/checkout-buyer-terms.

Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period until cancelled. You can cancel at any time from your account; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period and you retain access until then. Refunds are handled under our Refund Policy.

9. Service availability

We work hard to keep Hooksmith available, but we do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any specific result will be achieved. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time. Where possible we will give reasonable notice of material changes.

10. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to Hooksmith if you materially breach these Terms, if your account is past-due, if we reasonably suspect fraud or a security risk, or if you repeatedly or seriously violate our acceptable-use rules. You may stop using the service and close your account at any time. On termination, your right to use the service ends and we may delete your account data after a reasonable export window.

11. Disclaimers and liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Hooksmith is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the service is limited to the fees you paid to us in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or goodwill. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (such as for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence).

12. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold KurtzLieb Technology LLC harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses arising out of content you submit or generate, your use of outputs, or your breach of these Terms.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes we will notify you by email or in-app. Continued use of the service after the effective date of the updated Terms constitutes acceptance.

14. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of incorporation of KurtzLieb Technology LLC, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Any disputes will be resolved in the competent courts of that jurisdiction, unless mandatory consumer law in your country of residence provides otherwise.
