These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of Creator Scout — the web app, the companion browser extension, and related services (together, "Creator Scout" or the "Service"). By installing, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
Creator Scout is a local-first tool that helps you discover public creator profiles by niche and prepare and send outreach messages from a social account you are already signed into, using your own browser. The Service runs on your device; it does not operate a server that stores your account credentials or your data. You provide the account, the browser session, and the messages.
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract. If you use the Service on behalf of a business, you represent that you are authorized to bind that business to these Terms.
You are solely responsible for how you use the Service and for everything sent from your account. You agree that you will:
Account risk — please read. Automating actions on a third-party platform may violate that platform's terms of service and can result in warnings, temporary action blocks, feature limits, or permanent suspension of your account. Detection systems change without notice. Creator Scout's pacing, caps, and message variation are designed to reduce this risk but cannot eliminate it, and we do not and cannot guarantee that your account will not be restricted or banned. You use the Service at your own risk and are solely responsible for your account and its standing. If you are not comfortable accepting this risk, do not use the auto-send features.
Creator Scout is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, authorized, maintained, sponsored, or endorsed by Instagram or Meta Platforms, Inc. "Instagram" and related marks are trademarks of Meta Platforms, Inc. Any interaction with those platforms is subject to their own terms and privacy policies.
Subject to these Terms and, where applicable, an active paid subscription, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for your own outreach. We retain all rights, title, and interest in the Service, including its software, design, and content. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, or redistribute the Service except as permitted by law.
A limited free plan is available with monthly usage allowances. Removing those limits requires a paid subscription, billed on a recurring basis through our payment processor (Stripe). Paid plans begin with a 14-day free trial that collects a payment method at sign-up and converts to the paid plan unless cancelled before it ends. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled. You can cancel at any time; access continues through the end of the current billing period. Fees, cancellation, and refunds are described in our Refund & Cancellation Policy, which is part of these Terms.
The Service stores the data you create — discovered profiles, drafts, settings, and history — only in your browser on your device. We do not receive or store it. See our Privacy Policy for details.
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, compatible with any third-party platform at any given time, or that it will produce any particular result, response rate, or outcome. Third-party platforms may change and break functionality at any time.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CREATOR SCOUT AND ITS OPERATORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR — WITHOUT LIMITATION — ANY SUSPENSION, RESTRICTION, OR TERMINATION OF YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Creator Scout and its operators from any claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your use of the Service, your messages, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party rights, including any third-party platform's terms.
You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access, or discontinue the Service, if you breach these Terms or if we reasonably need to, including for legal or platform-compliance reasons. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 3–5 and 8–10) will survive.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the operator of Creator Scout is established, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. You agree to resolve disputes in the courts of that jurisdiction, except where applicable law gives you the right to bring proceedings elsewhere.
