Terms of use
Effective date: [effective date]
What this is
These terms cover your use of Stairly, run by [legal entity name]. By using it, you agree to them. You must be at least 13 years old to use it.
AI models create your essay feedback. It is software output and it can be wrong, so use your own judgment.
We cannot promise admission
We cannot promise admission to any college. Admission decisions belong to each college. The transfer numbers we show are official rates for all applicants, and they are not a prediction for you.
School numbers and deadlines can change or contain mistakes. Always check deadlines and requirements on the school's own website.
Your work and your honesty
We never write your essay. We point out what to cut, what to add and what is weak, and any short example phrasing is only a suggestion.
You keep ownership of what you write. You give us permission to process it only so we can run the tool for you, as described in our privacy policy.
You are responsible for what you submit to colleges, and for following their rules and the rules of any application platform. The Common App's fraud policy covers passing off AI output as your own original work.
Voice check
Our voice check is our own check for generic writing. AI detectors can wrongly flag writing by real people. We do not promise what any college's tools will find.
The Transfer Pass
The Transfer Pass has two plans, and both renew until you cancel. Monthly is $40 a month. Renews at $40 a month until you cancel. Season Pass is $15 a month, billed $90 every 6 months. Renews at $90 every 6 months until you cancel.
The parent bundle is $199 for the first 6 months of the Season Pass and one read of one essay by an admitted transfer student we work with, then it renews as a regular Season Pass at $90 every 6 months until you cancel.
We charge your card at the start of each period. Your pass stays active through the period you paid for. Some features are marked as coming soon and may not be available when you buy.
To cancel, tap Manage or cancel on your account page. If a parent paid and has no account, they can email support@stairly.co to cancel. Cancelling stops the next charge, and the pass stays active until the paid period ends.
Full refund within 7 days, no questions asked. Email support@stairly.co.
The 7 days start on the day of the payment you want refunded. If we refund your most recent payment, your pass ends and it will not renew.
Using the tool fairly
- Do not submit writing you do not have the right to share.
- Do not try to break, overload or copy the service, or get around its limits.
- Do not use it to do anything illegal or to harm someone.
Limits on our responsibility
The tool is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, [legal entity name] is not responsible for admission outcomes, missed deadlines or indirect losses, and our total responsibility to you is limited to what you paid us.
Ending use, changes and disputes
You can stop using the tool at any time. We may suspend accounts that break these terms.
If we make an important change, we will update the date above and tell you. The laws of [state] apply to these terms. Questions? Email support@stairly.co.
