Private beta
Terms of use
Short, because a reader should be able to read them. They cover the private beta; they will grow when the product does.
What Novelyze is
Novelyze is a reading app in which a story is written for you, beat by beat, by a language model working from an authored story starter, and steered by your decisions. It is a book that answers you. It is not a person, a counsellor, or a source of facts about the world.
Your account and your sessions
You sign in with a link sent to your email. A reading session is yours: only you (and the people who run Novelyze, for support and for improving the stories) can see it. You may export a session or delete it at any time from its contents page. Deleting removes every copy of what you wrote in it.
What you write
What you type at a decision point is treated as what the protagonist does or says, and is sent to language-model providers to write the next passage. Do not type anything you would not want processed by a third party; see the privacy notice for who those are. Text that tries to break the story's rules is absorbed into the story, never obeyed.
Limits
Each session and each reader has a spend cap. When it is reached the story pauses at an honest resting point and resumes later. Generated prose can be wrong, repetitive, or in poor taste despite the guards; a quiet 'something felt off?' sits under every page for exactly that.
If you are in trouble
If what you write suggests you may be at risk, the story stops and you are shown real resources instead, once, gently. Nobody is alerted and nothing is recorded beyond the fact that it happened. A story is not the right place for that, and we will not pretend it is.
Changes
These terms may change during the beta. Material changes are announced by email to beta readers before they take effect.
