Terms of Service

Last updated: August 23, 2026

The service

Rankwriter crawls a domain you connect, researches keywords, generates long-form articles with automated fact-checking and quality scoring, and — if you choose — publishes them to a CMS you connect (WordPress, Webflow, Ghost, or a webhook). You review, edit, or reject every article before it publishes, unless you explicitly enable auto-publish for a site.

Your account & content

You must provide a valid email address and be authorized to publish content to any domain or CMS you connect. You own the articles generated for your account. You are responsible for reviewing generated content before publishing — Rankwriter's fact-checking and quality scoring reduce but do not eliminate the risk of factual errors, and you remain responsible for what you publish under your name or brand.

AI-generated content

Articles are drafted by large language models (via OpenRouter/Anthropic) and pass through an automated fact-check and quality-scoring pipeline. This is not a guarantee of accuracy. Review flagged citations and claims before publishing, particularly for time-sensitive, medical, legal, or financial topics.

Plans & billing

Paid plans are billed monthly in advance via Stripe and include a fixed number of article credits per month; unused credits do not roll over. New accounts receive 2 free article credits with no recurring free tier. Every paid plan carries a 7-day money-back guarantee from the date of first purchase — email rankwriter@shovelware.ai to request a refund within that window. You can cancel anytime; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

Acceptable use

Don't use Rankwriter to generate content that is illegal, infringing, defamatory, or intended to manipulate search rankings through deceptive or spammy publishing practices (e.g., mass-publishing low-quality pages purely to game search engines). We may suspend accounts that abuse the service, including automated abuse of free-trial credits.

Service changes & availability

Rankwriter is an early-stage product and may change, be interrupted, or be discontinued. We'll do our best to give notice of material changes affecting paid accounts.
