3.1 Nature of the Service. Rankply is a done-for-you Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) service. We provide: (a) automated AI visibility audits that analyse how your brand appears across AI search engines including ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini; (b) competitor analysis and citation tracking; (c) personalised content recommendations; and (d) content creation and publication services carried out by the Rankply team on your behalf, using your Brief as a guide.

3.2 Done-For-You Model. Content creation and publication (including blog posts, PR placements, social media posts, and other deliverables) are carried out entirely by the Rankply team. You are not required to create, approve, or publish content yourself, unless you choose to do so. By subscribing, you authorise Rankply to create and publish content on your behalf in accordance with your Brief.

3.3 Hosted Blog. Where included in your Subscription plan, Rankply will provision a blog at a subdomain of rankply.com. This subdomain is licensed to you for use during your active Subscription. You do not own the subdomain. Upon termination of your Subscription, the hosted blog will be deactivated.

3.4 Free AI Visibility Audit. All registered users receive a complimentary Free Audit upon verifying their email address. The Free Audit is provided at no cost and at our discretion. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the Free Audit at any time.

3.5 AI-Powered Features. Our Service uses artificial intelligence technology from third-party providers including Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google. AI-generated outputs are provided for informational purposes and may not always be accurate, complete, or current. You should apply your own judgement before acting on any AI-generated content or recommendations.

4. Subscriptions, Billing, and Payment

4.1 Plans and Pricing. We offer subscription plans (Standard, Plus, and Pro) with features and pricing as listed on our website at rankply.com/pricing. Prices are displayed in your local currency (USD, GBP, EUR, or CAD) based on your location and are inclusive of any applicable taxes unless stated otherwise. We reserve the right to change prices at any time; price changes will apply to new subscribers immediately and to existing subscribers at their next renewal.

4.2 Free Trial. All paid plans include a 7-day free trial. A valid payment method is required to start your trial. You will not be charged during the trial period. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your chosen plan will begin and your payment method will be charged automatically.

4.3 Billing Cycle. Subscriptions are billed monthly or annually depending on the option you select. Monthly subscriptions renew automatically on the same calendar date each month. Annual subscriptions renew automatically on the same calendar date each year. You authorise us to charge your payment method on a recurring basis until you cancel.

4.9 Plan Changes. You may upgrade your plan at any time; upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing for the remainder of the current period.

7.2 Content Based on Brief. Published Content is created based on your Brief at the time of each monthly delivery cycle. If your Brief contains errors, inaccuracies, or prohibited content, Rankply is not liable for any resulting issues with the Published Content.

7.3 Content Review. While we use reasonable skill and care in creating Published Content, we do not guarantee that Published Content will be error-free, appropriate for all audiences, or free from factual inaccuracies. We recommend that you review Published Content when notified of its availability.

7.4 Third-Party Publishing Platforms. Some content is published on third-party platforms (including PR publications, social media, and Reddit).

7.5 Delivery Timeframes. Our standard delivery timeframe is 7 days from the start of your monthly cycle. We will use reasonable endeavours to meet this timeframe but cannot guarantee it in all circumstances. In the event of delay, we will notify you.

8. AI Visibility Scores and Results

8.1 Nature of AI Visibility Data. AI visibility scores and audit data represent our assessment of your brand’s appearance in AI-generated responses at the time the audit was conducted. AI engines are updated frequently, and scores may fluctuate. Audit results are informational only and do not constitute a guarantee of any particular outcome.

8.2 No Guarantee of Results. Rankply does not guarantee any specific improvement in AI visibility scores, brand mentions, website traffic, revenue, or business outcomes as a result of using the Service. The timeframe of 60 to 90 days referenced in our marketing materials is a typical experience based on our observation, not a contractual commitment. Results vary depending on your industry, competitive landscape, Brief quality, and factors outside our control including changes to AI engine algorithms and training data.

8.3 AI Engine Changes. AI engines including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity are operated by independent third parties. We have no control over their algorithms, training data, update schedules, or policies. Changes to these engines may affect your visibility scores in ways that are unforeseeable and outside our control.

9. Modifications, Suspension, and Termination

9.1 Changes to the Service. We may modify, update, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time. For material changes that affect your Subscription, we will provide at least 30 days’ notice by email. Your continued use of the Service after that notice period constitutes acceptance of the changes.

9.2 Suspension and Termination by Rankply. We may suspend or terminate your account immediately if we reasonably believe you have: (a) violated these Terms; (b) provided false information; (c) used the Service in a way that harms other users or the integrity of the Service; or (d) failed to pay amounts due. We will give you reasonable notice where practicable unless the breach is serious.

9.3 Effect of Termination. Upon termination of your account: (a) your access to the Service will cease; (b) your Hosted Blog will be deactivated; (c) your data will be retained for 90 days before permanent deletion; (d) outstanding payments remain due. Sections 5, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 survive termination.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

  • Published Content will achieve any particular level of engagement, reach, or citation
  • The Service will improve your AI search rankings, website traffic, or business results
  • AI engine algorithms or policies will remain unchanged
