Terms of Service

Last updated: November 4, 2026

These terms govern your use of Writ’s services — the scanner/CLI, the MCP server, the gate API, and the portal (together, the “Service”). By using the Service you agree to these terms. Questions: hello@withwrit.com.

The service

Writ puts a policy gate in front of your AI agents’ writes. Before an agent fires a write, Writ checks your policy — ALLOW, DENY, or STEP_UP — and records every decision in your tamper-evident audit log.

Your account

API keys are issued by email and identify your tenant. Your keys and sponsor token are shown once — store them somewhere safe. You’re responsible for all activity under your keys, so don’t share them.

Your data and product improvement

Writ handles data in tiers, and the tier follows how you use the Service:

• Outcomes. Receipts and decision metadata contain no customer code. Writ may use them as operational data and as decision labels.
• Free and self-serve. Scan findings, extracted features, and de-identified snippets around write-sites may be used by Writ under a product-improvement license, to improve the scanner and its risk models. The trade is explicit: the tooling is free, and the findings improve the product for everyone. This license is stated here, at signup, and again when you install the GitHub App.
• Raw code. Your code is never stored and never trained on without a separate, explicit opt-in. A scan reads code into ephemeral storage and discards it when the scan ends. Findings travel; code does not.
• Enterprise. A data processing agreement with Writ carries a carve-out in plain words: your data never trains the model. Enterprise use is opt-in only.

Everything Writ stores from a scan is secret-scrubbed and de-identified first. If you ask us to delete your data, your free-tier material is excluded from future dataset versions and blocked from re-ingestion. Data never moves to a more permissive tier silently: that takes a change to these terms and a new, visible consent moment.

Acceptable use

• Don’t use the Service for anything unlawful.
• Don’t abuse, overload, or probe the Service, and don’t try to bypass rate limits.
• Don’t attempt to access other tenants’ data.

Billing

10,000 audit-log receipts per month are free. After that, usage is $1 per 1,000 receipts, billed through Stripe. If you stop paying, your account reverts to the free tier — your audit log stays readable.

Termination

We may suspend or terminate accounts that abuse the Service or violate these terms. You can stop using Writ at any time; closing your account stops future billing.

Disclaimers

The Service is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind. Writ enforces the policy you configure — you’re responsible for what your policy allows.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Writ’s total liability for any claim related to the Service is limited to the amounts you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

Changes

We may update these terms; we’ll change the date above when we do. Continued use of the Service after a change means you accept the new terms. For GitHub App installations, a change to these terms pauses scanning for that installation until the new version is accepted.
