readme4meTerms of Service
Last updated: November 12, 2026
These Terms apply to your use of readme4me, the website at readme4.me and the app at app.readme4.me. By creating an account or using readme4me, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy.
1. The service
readme4me reads the GitHub repositories you authorize and uses AI to write documentation for them: a README, an entity relationship diagram and a high-level design diagram. You can edit what it writes, save versions and export it.
2. Your account
- You must be at least 13 years old, the same minimum age GitHub requires. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you need the permission of a parent or guardian, who accepts these Terms for you and makes any purchases.
- Keep your sign-in method secure. You are responsible for what happens under your account.
- The information you give us must be accurate.
3. GitHub access and your repositories
- readme4me connects through a GitHub App with read-only access to the repositories you select. It never writes to them.
- Only connect repositories you have the right to share, and only if you are allowed to have their content processed as described in the Privacy Policy, including by our AI provider.
- You can change the selected repositories or uninstall the GitHub App on GitHub at any time.
4. AI-generated content
Documents are written automatically by AI from your code. They can contain mistakes or leave things out, so review them before you publish or rely on them. They are provided as they are, without any guarantee of accuracy or fitness for a particular purpose.
5. Ownership
- Your code and the documents generated for you are yours.
- You give us a limited permission to read your repositories and to process and store your documents only to provide readme4me to you.
- readme4me itself, including its software, design and brand, belongs to us.
6. Plans, credits and payment
- Plans are paid through Stripe, in US dollars. Taxes may apply.
- A subscription renews automatically each period until you cancel it. You can cancel at any time from Billing, and the cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period.
- Each plan grants its price in AI credits every period (1 credit = $0.10 of AI usage). Generating a document uses credits according to the AI usage it takes. Scanning a repository is free.
- Credits expire on the date shown in the app and have no cash value.
- Unless the law requires otherwise, payments are not refundable and unused credits are not refunded.
- Nothing in these Terms limits the rights you have under the consumer protection laws that apply to you, including the right of withdrawal under Brazilian consumer law.
7. Deleting your account
You can delete your account at any time in Manage account. Deletion is immediate and permanent: it removes your repositories, documents and GitHub connection, cancels your subscription without a refund for the current period and ends any remaining credits. Download the invoices you need from Billing first.
8. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use readme4me for anything unlawful or to process content you have no right to;
- try to break, overload, probe or bypass the security of readme4me;
- copy, resell or reverse engineer readme4me, or access it through automated means other than the app;
- use readme4me to build a competing product.
9. Availability and changes to the service
We work to keep readme4me available, but we cannot promise it will always be uninterrupted or free of errors. We may change, add or remove features. When a change significantly affects how you use readme4me, we will try to tell you in advance.
10. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or close an account that breaks these Terms or puts readme4me or other users at risk. You can stop using readme4me at any time.
11. Liability
To the extent the law allows, readme4me is provided "as is", and we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, lost profits or lost data. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before it. These limits do not apply where the law does not allow them, including to the rights you have as a consumer.
12. Changes to these Terms
When these Terms change, we update the date at the top. If a change is significant, we will tell you in the app or by email before it takes effect. If you keep using readme4me after that, you accept the new Terms.
13. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Brazil. If you are a consumer, you may also bring a claim in the courts where you live, where the law allows it.
