Welcome to AI Mention Finder. By using our service, you agree to these terms. Please read them carefully.

  • AI responses vary and may change over time based on model updates
  • Results are informational only and should not be considered definitive or guaranteed
  • No warranties are provided regarding accuracy, completeness, or reliability

7. Third-Party AI Providers

When you use our service, your queries are sent to third-party AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Perplexity). These providers have their own terms of service and privacy policies:

You acknowledge that these AI providers may use your queries according to their policies, which are independent of AI Mention Finder.

8. Intellectual Property

The AI Mention Finder service, including its design, code, and content (excluding user-generated content and AI model responses), is owned by AI Mention Finder and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

AI model responses are generated by third-party AI providers and subject to their respective terms. We claim no ownership over AI-generated content.

AI Mention Finder provides informational tools only. The service does not provide:

Results from AI model checks should not be the sole basis for business decisions. Always consult with qualified professionals for advice specific to your situation.

We may terminate or suspend your access to the service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including:

  • Violation of these terms
  • Abusive or excessive usage
  • Fraudulent or illegal activity
  • At our sole discretion

Since the service requires no registration, termination simply means blocking your access.

Your continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. If you disagree with changes, stop using the service.
