Terms of Service

Acceptance of Terms

This Terms of Service ("Terms") is a legal agreement between you (the "User") and The Precedent AI Inc. ("The Precedent," "we," "us," or "our"), a Delaware corporation. These Terms govern your access to and use of The Precedent's regulatory intelligence platform, website, and related services (collectively, the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy (linked below). If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not use the Service.

If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these Terms for that organization and promising that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms. If you have a separate written agreement with The Precedent governing your use of the Service, that agreement will take precedence in the event of a conflict with these Terms.

Eligibility and Account Registration

By registering an account, you represent that you are a legal professional (or acting under the supervision of one) and that you are using the Service for lawful purposes within your professional capacity.

Description of Services

The Precedent provides a regulatory intelligence platform that continuously monitors and analyzes legal and regulatory developments to help companies understand which new laws and regulations apply to them and how those changes impact their business in practical terms. Key features of the Service include:

• Contextual Monitoring: The platform builds a structured understanding of your company’s products, operations, jurisdictions, and regulatory exposure. Using this context, The Precedent continuously scans millions of legal and regulatory documents (from federal, state, and agency sources) in real time.

• Relevance Filtering: When a new law or regulation is introduced or passed, the Service automatically determines if it is relevant to your business. Irrelevant updates are filtered out, reducing noise and alert fatigue for legal and compliance teams.

• Actionable Guidance: For each relevant legal or regulatory update, The Precedent provides clear, actionable guidance on how the change affects your specific business.

• Proactive Compliance Planning: By translating broad regulatory changes into company-specific intelligence, the Service enables proactive planning and prioritization.

• Integrations and Notifications: Users can access information via the web dashboard, receive email summaries, or integrate with third-party tools such as Slack.

• Continuous Improvement: Our team continuously refines the platform’s rules and AI models to improve relevance and accuracy.

All features of the Service are provided on a subscription basis (paid access). The Precedent does not offer a free tier beyond any trial or demo that we may optionally provide at our discretion.
