These terms govern your use of Shepit. By using the app or our service you agree to them.
Who we are
Shepit is operated by Rebbix LTD (Cyprus). You can reach us at hello@shepit.app.
What Shepit does
Shepit is a dictation app for macOS. It requires a Mac with Apple silicon running macOS 26 or later. It records short audio you choose to dictate and converts it to text through the Shepit Cloud backend. The transcribed text is inserted on your device.
Eligibility and accounts
Anyone with a Google account can sign up. You need your own Google account and are responsible for keeping access to it secure. A paid plan is taken out by an adult, or by a minor with a parent’s permission. We may refuse a sign-up or end access at our discretion, including for a breach of these terms. If you pay for a plan, ending your access follows the rules under Plans and payment.
Deleting your account. You can have your account and your personal data deleted in full at any time. Sign in on shepit.app and ask through the contact form under the “Delete my account or data” topic, so the request reaches us with proof that it is yours; if you can no longer sign in, email hello@shepit.app from the account’s address and we will confirm before deleting anything. We delete within 30 days, usually within a few working days. On a paid plan we turn off renewal as soon as we have your request; the time already paid for is not refunded, so either we delete now and that time is lost, or you cancel and ask again once the period ends. What we keep after deletion is listed in the Privacy Policy.
Plans and payment
Shepit offers a Free plan at no charge and two paid plans, Basic and Pro. Basic and Pro are monthly subscriptions that renew automatically until you cancel.
- Merchant of record. Paid plans are sold through Stripe Managed Payments. Link, Stripe’s payment service, is the seller and merchant of record: it charges you, calculates and collects tax, and sends your receipts and invoices. Your statement shows LINK.COM* Shepit.
- Price and start. Stripe shows the price, any tax and the amount due before you pay. A paid plan starts once the payment succeeds and renews monthly from that day.
- Changing plans. Upgrading from Basic to Pro applies as soon as you pay the difference for the rest of the current period; your renewal date stays the same. Switching from Pro to Basic applies at the end of the current period, with no refund, unless the law or Link’s terms give you one, and can be undone until then.
- Canceling. You can cancel from your account page on shepit.app, or at link.com. Your plan stays until the end of the period you paid for, and then your account moves to Free. Canceling does not refund the current period, unless the law or Link’s terms give you one.
- Failed renewals. If a renewal payment fails, your account is on Free until a payment succeeds. You can pay the renewal in billing, opened from the Plan tab in the Shepit app, with a saved or new card; adding a card alone does not pay it. If it is still unpaid after two weeks, the subscription ends.
- Refunds. If the current period is refunded in full, or a payment dispute ends with the money returned to you, the paid plan ends at once. After a partial refund, or a refund of an earlier period, it ends at the end of the current period.
- Ending access. If we end your access while a paid period is running, your plan runs to the end of that period, or we refund the unused part.
- Pro at no charge. If we give your account Pro at no charge while you pay for a plan, your subscription is set to end at the end of the current period, and that period is not refunded.
Fair use
Pro is unlimited, subject to fair use: about 120 hours of dictation a month for one user, which is about 4 hours per calendar day or 6 hours per working day. We count your use against it. If you go over it, we may contact you to talk about how you use Shepit. At 150 hours of audio in one billing period, Pro stops accepting dictation until your next billing period starts.
Acceptable use
- Do not use Shepit for any unlawful purpose.
- Do not attempt to disrupt, overload, reverse-engineer, or gain unauthorized access to the service or its infrastructure.
- You are responsible for the content you dictate and for ensuring you have the right to process it.
Third-party services
Shepit relies on Google (sign-in, hosting), OpenAI (transcription and AI clean-up), Cloudflare (website and update delivery, protection) and Stripe with its Link service (payments for paid plans). Your use of the service through these providers is also subject to their respective terms. How we handle your data is described in our Privacy Policy.
No warranty
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Shepit is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Shepit may be unavailable, may change, or may produce inaccurate transcriptions. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of Shepit.
Termination
You may stop using Shepit at any time; stopping does not cancel a paid plan, so cancel it as described under Plans and payment. We may suspend or end your access at our discretion, for example to protect the service. If you pay for a plan, the rules under Plans and payment apply.
