Terms of Service
Last Updated: January 16, 2025
Welcome to AlphabetaSoup (the “Platform”), owned and operated by Alphabetasoup, Inc.
(“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your use of
our AI-assisted mortgage analysis and workflow platform, including any services, content,
APIs, and websites (collectively, the “Services”). By accessing or using any portion of
the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms,
you may not access or use our Services.
1. Acceptance of Terms
-
Binding Agreement. By creating an account, accessing, or using our
Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by
these Terms and any policies referenced herein, including our
Privacy Policy and any additional guidelines or rules posted
within the Platform.
-
Eligibility. You represent that you are of legal age (18 years or older
in most jurisdictions) and are otherwise capable of entering into legally binding
contracts. If you are accessing or using the Services on behalf of an organization,
you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind the organization to
these Terms.
-
Updates to the Terms. We may modify these Terms from time to time in
our sole discretion. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated
Terms on our website. Your continued use of the Services after such changes are posted
indicates your acceptance of those changes.
2. Description of Services
-
Platform Overview. AlphabetaSoup is an AI-assisted platform focused on
mortgage analysis, guideline navigation, workflow automation, and other related
features. Users can:
- Create an account (Trial or Pro).
- Interact with AI chat sessions to parse loan scenarios and 1003 forms.
- Access plan-based features with usage limits (e.g., a set number of prompts).
- Upload necessary documents (e.g., XML files) for mortgage analysis or scenario
assessment.
-
No Guaranteed Accuracy. Although we strive to provide valuable,
accurate, and up-to-date mortgage-related information, the Platform relies on AI
models and external data sources. We do not guarantee the correctness, completeness,
or usefulness of any information provided. All results, outputs, and recommendations
are provided on an “as is” basis.
-
Not Financial or Legal Advice. The content generated through the
Services is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as financial,
legal, or underwriting advice. You should seek professional advice where appropriate.
3. User Accounts and Registration
-
Account Creation. To use certain features of the Services, you must
register for an account by providing a valid email address, username, and password.
You agree to provide accurate and complete information during registration and to keep
your account information current.
-
Account Security. You are responsible for maintaining the
confidentiality of your password and any activities that occur under your account.
You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access or breach of security.
-
Trial vs. Pro Plan. Users may sign up under a “Trial” plan (limited to
25 total prompts) or upgrade to a “Pro” plan (monthly usage resets with 500 prompts
per month). Additional details, such as pricing and code entry for promotional
upgrades, are described on the Platform. If you violate these Terms or misuse your
usage limits, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account.
4. Usage Limits and Promo Codes
-
Usage Tracking. We track user prompts (or chat requests) to ensure
compliance with the plan usage limits. Trial users receive a one-time total usage
allotment. Pro users have monthly usage allotments subject to automatic reset. The
system may block further prompts once you reach your limit.
-
Promo Codes. Occasionally, we may offer promotional or evaluation
codes (“Promo Codes”) to extend or upgrade your usage. Each user is allowed a limited
number of attempts (e.g., 20) to enter valid codes. Repeated invalid attempts may lead
to account-level restrictions. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue these
Promo Codes at any time.
-
No Guarantee of Validity. Promo Codes may be revoked, expired, or
otherwise invalid. We are not responsible if a provided code fails to function as
expected.
5. User Conduct and Responsibilities

Compliance with Laws. You agree to use the Services only in
compliance with all applicable local, state, national, and international laws and
regulations.

depend on the information you provide. You are solely responsible for ensuring the
accuracy and completeness of all data, loan scenarios, or documents you upload or
input.
