Goblyn Terms of Service

Effective date: July 18, 2026

The short version, up front: you hire a team of AI goblyns to write and publish your blog. You own every word they write. Posts publish on your schedule unless you veto them — that's the deal you're agreeing to. We work hard and honestly, but we can't and don't promise rankings or traffic, and you're the publisher of your own blog. Cancel anytime from Settings; your data stays safe until you say otherwise. The full text below is what governs.

1. Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a contract between you and to1 Labs LLC, an Arizona limited liability company doing business as Goblyn ("Goblyn," "we," "us") governing your use of the Goblyn service at goblyn.ai, including hosted blogs, dashboards, emails, and APIs (together, the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy.

You must be at least 18 and using the Service on behalf of a business or project (your own or one you're authorized to represent). If you accept for an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it.

2. The Service — what Goblyn does, with your standing permission

The short version: the goblyns work autonomously. You review by email; silence means publish. That autonomy is a feature you are explicitly authorizing.

Goblyn is an autonomous AI content service. When you use it, you authorize Goblyn to, on your behalf: crawl your public website; build and maintain a "fact file" about your business; research topics; draft blog posts using AI; publish those posts to your blog on the schedule shown to you; measure performance (including via Google connections you authorize); and adjust its content strategy over time.

Publishing consent. Each week, we send you a report listing the posts scheduled to publish, with the ability to veto or request changes to any of them before the stated deadline. Posts you have not vetoed by the deadline publish automatically. If you disable weekly reports, you are instructing us to publish without prior review. You can change these settings, veto scheduled posts, or take a published post down at any time.

AI-generated content. Content is generated by AI, grounded in your fact file and cited research, and passed through automated quality checks. AI-generated content can nonetheless contain errors, omissions, or statements you would not have made. You are the publisher of your blog. You are responsible for reviewing content (the weekly report exists for this), for its legality and accuracy in your jurisdiction and industry (especially in regulated fields such as health, finance, or law), and for any claims made about your own products.

We may improve, modify, or discontinue features of the Service; if we discontinue the Service entirely, we will give you reasonable notice and the ability to export your content.

3. Your account

Keep your credentials secure; you're responsible for activity under your account. Provide accurate information. One account may operate one blog/tenant unless we agree otherwise. We may suspend accounts that violate these Terms (see §9) or create risk for us or others.

4. Your domain and Google connections

The short version: only connect domains and Google properties you actually control.

To take your blog live on a custom domain, you must configure DNS (a CNAME record) for that domain — something only the domain's controller can do. You represent that you own or control any domain you connect and any website you direct us to crawl. You may not use the Service to publish on a domain you do not control.

If you connect Google Search Console or Analytics, you represent you are authorized to grant that access, and you authorize us to retrieve read-only data from the selected properties to operate the Service, as described in the Privacy Policy. You can disconnect at any time; some features (performance reports, strategy optimization, milestone detection) will not function without the connection.

5. Trial, fees, and billing

The short version: 30-day free trial, no card required, $0 today. You pay only when you choose to go live: $99/month, or $990/year (two months free). Cancel anytime from Settings; you keep access through the period you paid for.

  • Trial. New accounts get a 30-day free trial with no payment method required. During the trial, your blog lives at a private, unindexed preview URL and nothing is charged. If you never go live, the trial simply ends and you are never charged: the team stops producing new posts, and your preview stays reachable at its unindexed URL with everything already written on it. You can go live at any time afterwards. Retention of your content is governed by §7.
  • Going live and plans. Taking your blog live on your own domain starts your paid plan, which you can do at any time during or after the trial. You enter a payment method at that point and the first period is charged immediately: Monthly at $99/month, or Annual at $990/year (billed up front, two months free versus monthly). Prices may change with at least 30 days' notice; changes apply from your next renewal.
  • Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. Cancel anytime in Settings; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and your blog remains live until then.
  • Refunds. Except where required by law, fees are non-refundable and we do not prorate partial periods — with one exception: if you cancel an Annual plan within 60 days of purchase, we will refund the unused full months on request. Email [email protected].
  • Taxes. Fees exclude applicable taxes, which you're responsible for; where we're required to collect, we will add them.
  • Failed payments. If renewal payment fails, we'll retry and notify you; we may suspend the Service (blog offline) until payment succeeds. Your data is retained per §7.

6. Content ownership

The short version: you own every word. We keep only the license we need to host your blog and hold your archive.

  • Generated Content is yours. All blog posts and written content the Service generates for your account ("Generated Content") are owned by you upon creation. To the extent Goblyn holds any right in Generated Content, we assign it to you. This includes content generated during your free trial.
  • Your inputs are yours. Your fact file, logo, brand assets, and anything you provide remain yours. You grant us a license to use them solely to operate the Service for you (including grounding and quality-checking your content and theming your blog).
  • Our license to host. You grant Goblyn a non-exclusive license to host, cache, display, and transmit your Generated Content and brand assets as needed to serve your blog and previews, and to retain your archive under §7. This license ends when the content is deleted.
  • What's ours. The Goblyn platform, software, designs, the goblyn characters and their names and artwork, and the Goblyn brand are ours and our licensors'. These Terms grant you no rights in them beyond using the Service. You may not use the goblyn characters or brand outside the Service.
  • "Powered by Goblyn" badge. Blogs on the current plan display a small "Powered by Goblyn" badge in the footer.
  • No exclusivity of ideas. Because AI systems can produce similar output for similar inputs, we can't guarantee that content generated for other customers will never resemble yours; each customer owns the specific content generated for their account.
  • Case studies. We will not use your name, brand, or non-public data in marketing without your permission. We may use aggregated, anonymized statistics that identify no customer.

7. Your data, export, retention, and deletion

The short version: export everything anytime. Cancel and we keep your archive indefinitely so you can come back. Delete your account and it's actually gone.

You can export your Generated Content and fact file at any time via Download everything. If you cancel, your blog goes offline at period end, and we retain your archive indefinitely as described in the Privacy Policy so you can resume later. If you delete your account, we permanently erase your data as described in the Privacy Policy. Deletion is irreversible.

8. Acceptable use

The short version: use your goblyns for honest content about a real business. Don't make them do crimes.

You may not use the Service to: publish content that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, deceptive, or that violates others' privacy or publicity rights; misrepresent your identity or impersonate others; publish spam, link schemes, doorway pages, or content designed to manipulate search engines in violation of search-engine policies; publish malware or phishing content; direct us to crawl or connect sites, domains, or Google properties you don't control; probe, disrupt, or overload the Service; resell the Service or use it to operate a competing content-generation service; or use it in regulated domains in ways that require licenses you don't hold. We may remove content or suspend accounts that we reasonably believe violate this section, with notice where practicable.

9. Suspension and termination

You can stop anytime (§5, §7). We may suspend or terminate your access for material breach of these Terms, non-payment, legal requirement, or conduct creating risk or harm — with notice and a chance to cure where reasonable. Sections that by their nature survive (6, 7, 10–15) survive termination.

10. Copyright complaints (DMCA)

We respect intellectual property and respond to notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Send infringement notices to our designated agent: Alec Kretch, to1 Labs LLC, 6895 E Camelback Rd, Unit 1015, Scottsdale, AZ 85251. Email: [email protected]. Registered with the U.S. Copyright Office DMCA Designated Agent Directory (Registration No. DMCA-1075821). We may remove allegedly infringing material and terminate repeat infringers' accounts. Customers may submit counter-notices as provided by the DMCA.

11. Disclaimers

The short version: we promise honest effort and a working service. We do not — cannot — promise rankings, traffic, citations, or revenue.

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, GOBLYN DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

Without limiting the above: search rankings, traffic, impressions, indexing, AI-assistant citations, leads, and revenue depend on third parties (including Google and AI answer engines) and countless factors outside our control. Goblyn makes no guarantee of any marketing outcome. Historical or example results are not promises. We do not warrant that AI-generated content will be error-free, that the Service will be uninterrupted, or that third-party platforms (Google APIs, DNS, email delivery) will remain available or unchanged. Nothing in the Service is legal, financial, medical, or professional advice.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (a) NEITHER PARTY IS LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL; AND (b) GOBLYN'S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM (OR $100 IF YOU PAID NOTHING). These limits do not apply to your payment obligations, either party's willful misconduct, or liability that cannot be limited by law. Some jurisdictions don't allow certain limits, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

13. Indemnification

You will defend and indemnify Goblyn against third-party claims arising from: content you directed, approved, or failed to veto and its publication on your domain; your business, products, or the claims made about them; your breach of these Terms; or your violation of law or third-party rights — except to the extent a claim arises from our willful misconduct.

14. Governing law and disputes

The short version: talk to us first — a real person reads support email. Formal disputes are handled under Arizona law.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules. Before filing any claim, you agree to contact us at [email protected] and give us 30 days to try to resolve it informally.

Any dispute not resolved informally will be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial (or Consumer, as applicable) Rules, seated in Maricopa County, Arizona, conducted remotely where possible. You and Goblyn each waive the right to a jury trial and to participate in a class action. Either party may instead bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and either party may seek injunctive relief in court for IP or unauthorized-access matters. You may opt out of this arbitration provision within 30 days of accepting these Terms by emailing [email protected].

15. General

These Terms plus the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement and supersede prior discussions. If a provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision isn't a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Notices to you go to your account email; notices to us go to [email protected]. Neither party is liable for delays caused by events beyond reasonable control.

Changes to these Terms. We may update these Terms; for material changes we'll notify you by email at least 30 days before they take effect. Continued use after the effective date is acceptance; if you don't agree, cancel before then and the prior terms govern your wind-down.
