Terms of Service

A plain-English explanation of how things work. This is written for our free early-stage product and is not legal advice.

Last updated: June 30, 2026

1. Agreement

By using askberea.com, creating a workspace, or trying the live demo, you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the site.

2. What we offer

Berea is a free AI Bible study tool that shows how different Christian traditions read a passage, with cited sources — available as a no-signup demo and a free study workspace. The study features are free to use. Readers may choose to support Berea with a voluntary contribution; this is a gift that keeps the tool free and unlocks no additional features. Features shown are in development and may change.

3. About the study tool and AI content

The demo is provided for study and educational purposes. It presents how various traditions have historically interpreted Scripture, drawing on public-domain sources; presenting a view is not an endorsement of it. Like any AI system, it can make mistakes — always check the cited sources and Scripture yourself. Berea is a study aid, not a substitute for the Bible, your church, or pastoral, theological, legal, or other professional guidance.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • misuse, overload, scrape, or attempt to disrupt or gain unauthorised access to the site or its systems;
  • use the site to harass others or for any unlawful purpose;
  • submit content you don’t have the right to submit, or sensitive personal information, through the demo or forms.

5. Intellectual property

The Berea name, branding, site design, and software are ours. The Scripture and confessional texts the tool quotes are drawn from public-domain sources and are cited where used.

6. No warranty

The site and demo are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind. We don’t guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any AI-generated content is complete or accurate.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Berea will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content.

8. Changes & termination

We may update these terms or change, suspend, or discontinue the site or demo at any time as the product develops. We’ll update the “last updated” date above when we make material changes.
