Terms of service

Last updated: November 12, 2026

These terms apply to the Synthyze website and Chrome extension. By creating an account, you accept them.

The service

Synthyze summarizes web pages with an AI model and keeps the summaries in your library, with folders, tags, highlights, notes and search. It is provided by Julien Boyer (see the Legal notice).

Your account

You sign in with your Google account. One account per person. You are responsible for what is done with it. You must be at least 15, or have the consent of a parent or guardian.

Credits

  • Each summary, and each Learn more, uses 1 credit. If a generation fails, the credit is given back.
  • Saving a page for later is free.
  • Every new account gets 5 free credits, once per person.
  • Pages longer than 60,000 characters are summarized from their first 60,000 characters.

Prices and payment

  • Pro subscription: 100 credits every month, at the price shown on the Pricing page. Unused monthly credits do not roll over to the next month.
  • Credit pack: a one-off purchase of 50 credits, which never expire.
  • Subscription credits are used first, then pack credits.
  • Prices are in euros. VAT not applicable, article 293 B of the French General Tax Code.
  • Payments are processed by Stripe. The subscription renews every month until you cancel it.

Cancelling

You can cancel your subscription at any time from your Account page. It stays active until the end of the month already paid, then stops. No further payment is taken.

Right of withdrawal

If you are a consumer in the European Union, you have 14 days after a purchase to withdraw from it. Since credits can be used right away, by buying you ask for the service to start immediately. If you withdraw within 14 days, the credits you have not used are refunded. To withdraw, write to [to be added].

Fair use

  • Use Synthyze for your own reading, study and research.
  • Only summarize pages you are allowed to access.
  • Do not share, sell or publish summaries in a way that infringes the rights of the original authors.
  • Do not try to disrupt the service, get around its limits, or access it by automated means other than the extension.

An account that breaks these rules may be suspended.

AI-generated content

Summaries are written by an AI model. They are usually accurate, but can contain mistakes or leave things out. Check important information against the original page. A summary is not professional advice, whether medical, legal, financial or other.

Your content

You keep all rights to your notes, highlights and library. You allow Synthyze to store and process them only to provide the service. The pages you summarize remain the property of their authors.

Availability

Synthyze is in beta. It is provided as it is: it may change, be interrupted for maintenance or contain bugs. Reasonable efforts are made to keep it running and to protect your data.

Liability

Synthyze is not liable for indirect losses, or for decisions made on the basis of a summary. Where the law allows, total liability is limited to the amount you paid in the 12 months before the event. Nothing in these terms limits your rights as a consumer.

Ending your account

You can delete your account at any time from your Account page. Your library is then erased, your subscription is cancelled and unused credits are lost.

Changes to these terms

If these terms change in a meaningful way, you will be told by email or in the app at least 30 days before. If you do not agree, you can delete your account before the change applies.

Law and disputes

These terms are governed by French law. In case of a dispute, write to [to be added] first, to find a solution together. If that fails, as a consumer you can turn to a consumer mediator free of charge: [to be added].
