Terms of Service

Effective July 11, 2026 · Last updated July 11, 2026

These Terms are the agreement between you and Gravitas AI LLC for using the Rubber Duck app and website. Please read them, especially the sections on recording other people, subscriptions, and the disclaimers. By using Rubber Duck, you agree to these Terms.

1. Acceptance

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Gravitas AI LLC ("Gravitas AI," "we," "us") governing your use of the Rubber Duck application (the "App") and the website at getrubberduck.com (the "Site"). If you do not agree, do not use the App or Site.

2. License to use the app

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, for your own personal or internal business use. You may not: copy, resell, rent, or redistribute the App; reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive the source code except to the extent the law permits; remove proprietary notices; or use the App to build a competing product.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old, and old enough to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction, to use the App. If you use the App on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms for it.

4. Subscriptions, pricing, and billing

• Plans. Rubber Duck offers a free tier, a Pro subscription (currently $6 per month or $49 per year), and a one-time Lifetime purchase (currently $99). Features and prices may change; the current details are shown in the App and on the Site.
• Billing through Apple. Purchases are processed by the Apple App Store and charged to your Apple Account. Subscriptions renew automatically for the same period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Managing and canceling. You manage or cancel a subscription in your Apple Account settings, not through us. Deleting the App does not cancel a subscription.
• Refunds. Refund requests for App Store purchases are handled by Apple under Apple's policies. We generally cannot issue refunds directly.
• Price changes. We may change prices going forward. Changes do not affect the current paid period, and where required we will notify you and obtain any consent the platform requires before a renewal at a new price.

5. Your content and recordings

You own the transcripts, notes, and recordings you create with the App ("Your Content"). We claim no ownership of Your Content. Because Your Content is stored on your device (and, if you enable optional features, sent to providers you choose), you are responsible for it, including keeping backups. You are solely responsible for the legality of what you capture and for how you use it.

6. Recording other people

You are responsible for obtaining any consent required to record. Laws about recording conversations and meetings vary by country and by state, and some require the consent of all participants. Before recording a meeting or any other person, you must comply with all applicable laws and any workplace or platform rules. You agree that you, and not Gravitas AI, are responsible for recordings you make with the App.

7. Third-party services

The App can work with third-party services that you choose to enable, including AI providers (such as OpenAI's ChatGPT), the Apple App Store, our payments provider (RevenueCat), and a self-hosted sync server you configure. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies, and you must have the right to use any account or credentials you connect. We are not responsible for third-party services, and enabling them may send Your Content to them as described in our Privacy Policy.

8. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the App to break the law, to infringe others' rights, to record or process content you have no right to, or to interfere with or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any system or the App's protections. You agree not to misuse any connected third-party service in violation of its terms.

9. Our intellectual property

The App, the Site, the Rubber Duck name and logo, and all related software and content (excluding Your Content) are owned by Gravitas AI or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms grant you no rights in them except the limited license in Section 2.

10. Disclaimers

The App and Site are 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, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that transcription or AI-generated output is accurate, complete, or reliable, and you should not rely on it for any purpose where an error could cause harm. The App is not a substitute for professional, legal, medical, or financial advice.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Gravitas AI and its owners will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill, arising from or related to your use of the App or Site. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim relating to the App or Site will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the App in the twelve months before the claim, or twenty-five US dollars ($25). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Gravitas AI from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from Your Content, your recordings, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

13. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time. We may suspend or end your license if you materially breach these Terms or misuse the App. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification) will survive.

14. App Store terms

If you obtained the App from the Apple App Store, you acknowledge that:

• These Terms are between you and Gravitas AI only, not with Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the App or its content.
• Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App.
• In the event the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price to you (if any); to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the App.
• Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the App, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, or consumer protection claims.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
• You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo and are not on any US Government restricted-parties list.

15. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. You agree that the state and federal courts located in Florida will have jurisdiction over any dispute not otherwise subject to arbitration or small-claims resolution, to the extent permitted by law. Nothing here limits any non-waivable consumer rights you have under the laws of your home jurisdiction.

16. Changes and contact

We may update these Terms as the App evolves or as required by law; we will update the "Last updated" date and, for material changes, provide notice. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept them.
