Welcome to Smith! Please read these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy (collectively the âTermsâ) carefully, as you agree that you consent to these Terms by your use of this website or Smithâs services, as described further below.
The Terms are entered into by and between you (referred to herein as âyouâ and/or, if you have subscribed to Smith, as âSubscriberâ) and Smith.ai, Inc. (âSmith,â âwe,â âour,â or âusâ), and they govern your access to and use of the Smith website and/or Smith software (collectively the âPlatformâ) and Smith Services, as defined below, whether as a guest or subscriber.
Please read the Terms carefully before you start to use the Platform or Services. By using the Platform or signing up to start a free trial of our Services, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy, incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or the Privacy Policy, do not access or use the Platform or any Smith Services, but please get in touch with us so we can try to help.
This agreement remains in full force and effect while you use the Platform. All provisions of the Terms shall survive termination by either party, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.
The Platform and Services are intended only for access and use by individuals at least eighteen (18) years old. If you are not at least eighteen (18) years old, you are prohibited from both the access and usage of the Platform and Services.
We may revise and update these Terms from time to time in our sole discretion.

Smith provides chat communication services to its subscribers, including chat message answering; filtering marketing, spam, or other unwanted chats; chat greetings; inbound messages; chat summarization and transmission via email or other communication API (e.g., Slack); text to mobile devices; message notifications through text and/or email, and other services that may be introduced from time to time. Collectively, the services described in this paragraph and all others provided by Smith now or in the future, whether through an embeddable widget, web portal, SMS, email, mobile application, or other interface, are called the âServicesâ in these Terms.
All plans are subject to, and limited by, Smith.aiâs Reasonable Use Policy.
These Terms and the Services provided do not create a joint venture, partnership, or employer-employee relationship between you and Smith.
Smith offers Service Plans and rates on a month-to-month subscription basis, the details of which can be found at https://smith.ai/chat.
You may, at any time, elect to change your Service Plan by contacting Smith at chat@smith.ai. Changes will take effect on the next monthly payment date. Overage charges will apply, if any, until the new Service Plan takes effect.
For purposes of the Services Plans:
âStaffedâ means services provided with the assistance of human receptionists, responding to chat participants and providing answers to questions asked.
âAvailable Hoursâ means the hours during which Smith will provide specific Services to you, as outlined further in your selected Service Plan. Live-staffed chat services will be provided 24/7.
âChatsâ means: chat sessions that are either 1)Â received by Smith on your behalf through your website, via text message, or from another location where you have embedded the chat widget, or 2) initiated by Smith on your behalf, proactively, to website visitors visiting locations where you have embedded the chat widget.
âScreeningâ is a service performed by Smith.ai chat during a Chat in which the participant is qualified as:
âRelevant chatsâ means chat sessions in which a customer fulfills requirements of screening
âLive Transfer Phone Numberâ means the phone number(s) that we may connect chat participants to, per your instruction, if they meet your specified criteria.
âPer monthâ refers to the calendar month.
Your Service Plan begins on the date of your first payment for your selected Services Plan (âSubscription Dateâ). By subscribing to the Services, you agree to pay all fees for your selected Service Plan, plus any overage charges incurred. All payments are non-refundable.
The monthly rate is charged on the Subscription Date, and will be automatically charged each month on the monthly anniversary of your Subscription Date, using the payment method provided at the time of subscription until you terminate your subscription. For example, if you sign up on April 10, you will be automatically charged the monthly rate for your chosen Service Plan on the 10th day of each month thereafter until your subscription is cancelled.
In the event that you exceed the number of Chats provided in your Service Plan during a calendar month of the Services, you will be charged overage charges as described in the table at https://smith.ai/chat. Overage charges will be charged on the first day of the next billing cycle, or, if your Service Plan is terminated, are required to be paid within 10 days of the termination date of your Service Plan. You authorize Smith to charge the payment method on file for any overage charges incurred.
Smith reserves the right to terminate your subscription immediately and stop providing the Services to you at any time if timely payment is not made. If an automatic payment cannot be made, Smith will request another payment method. If payment is not made within five (5) business days, we will stop providing all Services to you and disable your chat service. If payment is not made within ten (10) business days, Smith will terminate your account. Smith reserves the right to collect any and all amounts then due, plus any Late Charges accrued.
Any payments not received within ten (10) days of the Subscription Date, and every month thereafter, are subject to a monthly Late Charge of $10 or 10% of the amount then due (whichever is greater), subject to any restrictions imposed by local law. In the event Smith does not receive full payment within ten (10) days after the Subscription Date, the Subscriber will be considered in material default of this Agreement (âMaterial Defaultâ). After such Material Default, Smith shall maintain the right to collect any and all amounts then due, the Subscriber shall pay all legal fees and collection costs incurred by Smith, and the Subscriber shall pay all late fees that may accrue thereafter.
Subscribers may be presented with discounts, offers, credits, and other promotions (collectively, âDiscountsâ) from time to time, which reduce the cost of Services. Discounts can be used only once per Subscriber. Unless explicitly stated otherwise in the terms of the Discount (e.g., a seasonal promotion), Discounts are for new (first-time) Subscribers only and may not be combined. In the event of multiple applicable Discounts, the Subscriber may choose which one to apply. Discounts may have expiration dates and are no longer valid past the date of expiration.
In addition, Discounts may be offered in conjunction with partners, affiliates, and other entities (collectively, "Partners"). Smith.ai reserves the right to revoke a Discount at any time for improper usage, including but not limited to: (i) applying a Discount for or from a Partner when the Subscriber is not associated with, or a customer of, that Partner; (ii) applying a Discount intended for another Subscriber, or (iii) distributing a Discount intended for single use.
Smith.ai offers a Money-Back Guarantee to first-time subscribers of our chat communication services. We guarantee a refund of up to $1,000 for a period of 14 days following the first payment date (Subscription Date). The Money-Back Guarantee offer is subject to the following terms:
Money-Back Guarantee is not available to prior Subscribers.
Subscriber must notify Smith.ai in writing via email to support@smith.ai of a Money-Back request within 14 days from Subscription Date. Only requests submitted by i.) the known account holder(s) or ii.) the partner reseller (defacto account holder(s)) of the subscription may request exercising the Money-Back Guarantee on a subscription.
The Money-Back refund shall not exceed the first subscription payment.
Any overage charges incurred for chats beyond the service plan quota will be deducted from the Money-Back refund at the corresponding overage rate.
The Money-Back Guarantee is limited to a maximum refund of $1,000 of the first subscription payment.
Smith.ai may cancel service plans during the 14-day period and refund Subscriber subject to Money-Back Guarantee terms for circumstances described in section 10(b).
The Money-Back Guarantee covers the first subscription payment, less any discounts applied prior to payment, as discounts applied through promo codes or other means may neither be converted back to cash nor credit for use on a future subscription.
Smith offers a Referral Program as a benefit to Subscribers. In exchange for the direct and traceable referral of a new prospective Subscriber to Smith (an individual or business who has neither previously been a Subscriber nor currently is in negotiations, trial, or guarantee period prior to becoming a Subscriber) who becomes an actively paying Subscriber stemming from such referral, the Subscriber will receive a benefit of a $25/month discount on their subsequent bills insofar as the Subscriberâs account is in good standing with a balance greater than zero, to which a discount can be applied. This recurring $25/month discount will continue to be applied to the referring Subscriber, as long as the referred and referring Subscribers remain actively paying Subscribers in good standing with a balance greater than zero on their respective accounts.
â
Discounts may not be applied to a partner account, defined as an account that (directly or indirectly) manages, white-labels, wholesales, or resells Smith.ai products and/or services under the Smith.ai brand name or any other individual or business entity, notwithstanding reseller and referral partners who are Subscribers themselves and have forgone in writing their partner-specific reseller/referral benefits in favor of $25/month discounts.
â
Discounts are not transferable, may not be converted to cash, do not accrue an unused balance that carries over to subsequent months (âuse it or lose itâ within the current monthâs billing cycle), and cease upon termination of a Subscriber account without possibility of reinstatement. Discounts may be placed on hold if a Subscriber places a temporary hold on their account, at the sole discretion of Smith. Discounts are accrued only once per new unique, actively paying Subscriber, and not per-service or per-product.
â
A Subscriber may not refer themselves, nor may they refer a new location, employee, or owned entity of the same business as a Subscriber. We reserve the right to investigate any suspicious or inappropriate activity relating to the Referral Program. Notwithstanding any provision of these terms, we are not be obligated to provide any discount to a referring Subscriber, whose referral results in a new actively paying Subscriber, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that the referred Subscriber is not a bona fide new Subscriber, including, without limitation, if referred or referring Subscriber engaged in any fraudulent or deceitful behavior in connection with the Referral Program, including, without limitation, if a referred or referring Subscriber, directly or indirectly, offered any person a financial or other incentive to become an actively paying Subscriber, used a referral link, code or other mechanism to redirect traffic from, or divert discounts from, any other Subscriber in the Referral Program. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to delay payment of any discounts while we investigate Subscribersâ participation in the Referral Program or any use of referral links, codes and other mechanisms.
â
We reserve the right to cancel the Referral Program without prior notice in its entirety or for a specific referring Subscriber at any time for any reason. All questions and disputes regarding Subscribersâ eligibility for, and credits disbursed as part of, the Referral Program will be resolved by Smith in its sole discretion.
â
Subscribers are automatically entered into the Referral Program upon becoming a Subscriber. Subscribers do agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree to all of the terms and conditions, you may not participate in the Referral Program. We may revise these terms from time to time in our sole discretion, subject to applicable law. When we revise these terms, we will post the revised version on the website. You are free to decide whether or not to accept a revised version of these terms, but accepting these terms, as revised, is required for you to continue participating in the Referral Program. If you do not agree to these terms or any revised version of these terms, your sole recourse is to terminate your participation in the Referral Program in writing to support@smith.ai. Except as otherwise expressly stated by us, your participation in the Referral Program is subject to, and constitutes your acceptance of, the version of these terms in effect at the time of your participation in the Referral Program.
Should the Subscriber desire to promote Smith products and services to their clients, peers, friends, family, and other individuals and businesses, in promoting Smith, the Subscriber agrees that they shall not use or permit any person or entity to use Smithâs trademarks, service marks, product marks, and any other branded graphics or logos (collectively, the âMarksâ) without prior written consent of Smith. All requests to use Smith Marks must be directed to support@smith.ai.
â
No promotional activity by Subscribers aimed at generating prospective Subscribers of Smith shall create any association, joint venture, partnership, or agency relationship of any kind between Smith and its Subscribers. Subscribers are not authorized to act, or incur any liability, obligation, or expense, on behalf of Smith. Further, Subscribers may not represent that they are in the business of providing, selling, soliciting, or effecting the products and/or services provided by Smith.
â
Presently, the Smith Referral Program is carried out through Referral Rock, and Smith, as with all other third-party applications we use in the course of carrying out business for our Subscribers, makes every reasonable effort to ensure the systems connecting Referral Rock and Smith are sound, secure, and functional in accordance with the standards and terms set forth in the full Terms of Service.

To the extent that Smith.ai processes any Personal Data as part of Subscriber Information that is subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (the âGDPRâ), on Subscriberâs behalf, in the provision of the services hereunder, the terms of the Smith.ai Data Processing Agreement, which are hereby incorporated by reference and a copy of which can be obtained by emailing support@smith.ai, shall apply.

Subscriber will obtain and maintain any required consents necessary to permit the processing of Subscriber Information under this Agreement. If you are subject to the GDPR you understand that if you give an integration provider access to your Smith.ai account, you serve as the data controller of such information and the integration provider serves as the data processor for the purposes of those data laws and regulations that apply to you. In no case are such integration providers our sub-processors.
When you subscribe to the Services, you will specify in the Product interface, and inform our trained staff, to determine how we can provide the most effective receptionist services to you â by learning what types of chats you generally receive and how you would like each chat handled. For each type of chat, such as a potential client or solicitation, you decide what information we collect from the visitor, if any, and how we will convey any desired information to you.
All information collected by Smith while providing the Services to you, including information received during Receptionist Calls, or provided for your subscription (âSubscriber Informationâ), is kept strictly confidential and is only shared with Smithâs staff that needs the information to provide the Services to you and your authorized staff. The utmost confidentiality of the Subscriber Information is guaranteed, so we do not require any separate confidentiality agreements to provide our Services to you in a manner that maintains confidentiality.
All Subscriber Information is jointly owned by Smith and you. Smith retains this joint ownership solely so that it has the right to store the information collected on its secure servers and use it to provide excellent Services to you, such as relaying messages to you through text and email, identifying spam visitors and solicitations, and improving our Services. Smith will use Subscriber Information for the sole purpose of providing the Services pursuant to the instructions that you provide, and under no circumstances will Smith sell Subscriber Information or share it in any manner not specified in these Terms.
If we are required to share Subscriber Information by law, we will notify you promptly upon receiving such a request. We will work with you to keep the Subscriber Information confidential if possible, but we will honor any applicable legal obligations regarding sharing the Subscriber Information.
Smith stores your Subscriber Information in a segregated account that only contains your Subscriber Information. Each Subscriber can only access and use the information in its own Smith account. This allows us to only allow Smith staff working on your account to access your Subscriber Information.
We will respond to your written request to delete specific Subscriber Information or your Smith account (including all Subscriber Information) within 3 business days. After confirming that you understand that deletion of the Subscriber Information and/or your Smith account will be permanent, we will delete the requested information and rescind all ownership rights to the Subscriber Information that was deleted.
In addition to not sharing, selling, or using Subscriber Information in any manner not described in these Terms and expressly agreed by you, we adhere to the following confidentiality protections:
Our staff are trained to follow the confidentiality measures described in these Terms and must sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement requiring them to keep all Subscriber Information confidential prior to starting to work with any Subscriber Information.
We perform regular malware scanning of the Platform and all servers and computers used by us to support the Platform.
Subscriber Information is encrypted through the Platform with Secure Socket Layer technology (SSL) and is also encrypted when it is stored by us to prevent unauthorized parties from viewing such information.
Our staff will not ask any chat participant for information that is not specifically requested by you.
For our attorney clients, we understand and respect your obligations regarding attorney-client confidentiality, including under Rule 5.3 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct, and uphold a commitment to confidentiality. Our staffâs conduct is compatible with your professional obligations.
Smith.ai shall report to Subscriber, with all relevant details, any event that Smith.ai reasonably believes represents unauthorized access to, disclosure of, use of, or damage to Content (a âSecurity Breachâ). Smith.ai shall make such report within 48 hours after learning of the Security Breach.
In the event of a Security Breach, Smith.ai shall (a) cooperate with Subscriber to identify the cause of the breach and to identify any affected Content; (b) assist and cooperate with Subscriber in investigating and preventing the recurrence of the Security Breach; (c) assist and cooperate with Subscriber in any litigation or investigation against third parties that Subscriber undertakes to protect the security and integrity of Content; and (d) mitigate any harmful effect of the Security Breach.
While we employ the practices described in these Terms to provide the Services, we also follow your instructions regarding how we can best provide the Services to you. Therefore, please ensure that any instructions provided to Smith regarding your account comply with your obligations and confidentiality expectations. We are not responsible for breaches of confidentiality that may occur when we are following your instructions, such as transmitting information to an unsecure server specified by you or the acts or omissions of your authorized staff members. Our goal is to be a valued member of your business, so we may contact you if we believe that a process could be improved, but our role in your business is limited to the Services that you order.
In its provision of the Services, Smith will transcribe messages from calls that you receive. However, Smith does not monitor or censor such messages for content and is not responsible, or have any liability whatsoever, for the content of Subscriber Information or messages that are received by, on the behalf of, or intended for the Subscriber.
Subscriber may cancel the Services at any time by notifying Smith at support@smith.ai or +1 (650) 727-6484. Services will continue until the end of the current subscription month. Smith does not provide a refund for early cancellation of Services for any reason. Cancellation must be made at least one week prior the end of the current subscription cycle. If the Subscriber cancels within one week of the end of the cycle, they will be billed for the following month. For example, if the subscription is set to renew Friday, cancel by the previous Friday to prevent being billed for the following month.
Smith may cancel the Services in the following circumstances:
If Smith has any reason whatsoever to believe that the Services are being used to contravene any law, the Services shall be immediately cancelled. Any such cancellation shall be at the sole discretion of Smith and without refund or liability to Subscriber.
If Subscriber does not pay for the Services by the required due date, Smith may cancel or suspend the Services immediately.
If Subscriber violates these Terms in any manner, Smith may cancel or suspend the Services and will provide notice to Subscriber of the violation.
Smith reserves the right to cancel the Services for any or no reason.
By signing up for the annual plan, you agree to a one year commitment, prepaid and non-refundable. The annual discount is offered for that (6 months or one year) commitment to our services for trusting us longterm with your business!
You may stop using your receptionist service at any time. However, we do not refund or prorate unused portions of a subscription. This means that if you stop forwarding your calls or close your account, you will retain access until the end of your subscription and can reactivate any time.
