Effective: 2026-09-30
These Terms govern your use of ShouldaSaid (the "Service"), operated by Ahmed Taweel, trading as Klarschritt ("we", "us"). By using the Service you agree to these Terms.
You must be 13 years or older, or the minimum age of digital consent in your country if higher, to use the Service. Students using the Service through a school's classroom mode do so under their teacher's supervision, and the teacher is responsible for that classroom's use of the Service.
ShouldaSaid is a debate practice trainer: you write a case for a motion (or describe a real situation), argue rounds against an AI or pre-written opponent, and get a ballot generated by an AI judge. Opponent responses and grading (including scores, decisions, and any results) are an AI's output for practice purposes only — none of it is a certified assessment or factual adjudication of any real-world dispute, competition, or exam, and no result should be relied on as professional, academic, or legal advice.
You can use the Service anonymously. If you choose to log in via emailed Magic Link, you're responsible for keeping access to that email account secure. We use that login only to save your progress and your ballot history across devices.
The Service is currently in early access: every feature is free to use, with no sign-up required to practice. We plan to introduce paid plans in the future — currently expected to be a Student plan at $3/month, a Teacher plan at $8/month, and a School plan at $299/year — but the payment provider has not been finalized. We will update these Terms before any paid plan launches or any charge is introduced. No purchase is required or possible on the Service today.
Don't submit illegal content, harassment, hate speech, or anything you don't have the right to post. Debate scenarios and arguments you type may be shown to other users (e.g. on shared result cards) and are processed by third-party AI providers to generate opponent responses (see our Privacy Policy). We can suspend or terminate access for abuse, including attempts to exploit the scoring or the classroom join-code system.
You keep ownership of the scenario and argument text you submit, but you grant us a license to store, process, and display it as part of operating the Service (e.g. judging your argument, showing it on a results screen or downloadable share card).
Opponent arguments, ballots, scores, and feedback are generated by AI models and may be inaccurate, inconsistent, or incomplete. They are provided for practice and self-improvement only and are not a substitute for a qualified human coach, teacher, or adjudicator.
The Service relies on third parties to operate: Supabase (data storage and login), Anthropic (AI-generated opponent and judge responses), DigitalOcean (hosting), Resend (login and notification emails), and Sentry (error monitoring). Your use of features backed by these providers is also subject to their own terms. We do not run advertising on the Service.
The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Ahmed Taweel (Klarschritt) is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, and total liability for any claim is capped at the amount you paid us in the past 12 months (or $0 if you haven't paid us anything).
We may update these Terms, including to reflect the launch of paid plans. Continued use after a change means you accept the new Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of Germany, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
