Terms of use
The rules for using Blank, in plain English. This page is also the app’s end user license agreement (EULA).
The full terms below are what count.
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Anish Polakala, the developer of Blank (“we”, “us”). They are also the end user license agreement (EULA) for the Blank app, and they cover the app and this website.
By downloading or using Blank, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don’t agree, please don’t use Blank.
You must be at least 18 years old to use Blank. By using it, you confirm that you are. Blank is not intended for anyone under 18, and AI chat, including Blank’s characters, may not be suitable for some minors.
Blank is offered in the United States.
Blank is a tool for practicing everyday conversations. Pip, the coach, and every character you talk with are AI. The scenes and characters are made up, and any resemblance to real people is a coincidence.
The characters’ lines and Pip’s feedback are generated automatically. They are practice feedback: they can be inaccurate, incomplete or a poor fit for your situation, and they aren’t a judgment of you.
Blank is not therapy, and nothing in it is professional, legal, medical or mental-health advice. It isn’t a substitute for professional care, and it isn’t an emergency or crisis service. Use your own judgment in real conversations.
If you’re in crisis, call or text 988 in the US, or call your local emergency number. See our safety protocol.
Blank creates an account for you automatically, identified by a random ID and a secret key stored on your iPhone. There’s no email or password, so keep your phone secure. If you lose access to your device, we may not be able to recover your history.
You’re responsible for what happens on your account.
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Blank on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the App Store’s terms, including use by other accounts through Family Sharing where the App Store allows it.
You may not copy, modify or distribute Blank; reverse engineer or decompile it, except where the law allows; rent, sell or sublicense it; or use it to build a competing product.
We and our licensors own Blank, including its software, design, scenes, courses, characters, text and the Blank and Pip names. These Terms don’t give you any rights to them except the license above.
What you write or say in Blank is yours. You give us permission to store, process and transmit it, including sending it to our AI provider, only to run Blank for you and keep it safe, as our Privacy Policy describes.
Please don’t share other people’s private information, or anything you don’t have the right to share. The lines and feedback Blank generates for you are yours to use for your own practice.
Blank is for practicing honestly, including the hard moments. Being blunt or awkward in a scene is part of practice. These aren’t allowed:
If you break these rules, the app may end the scene, pause practice or limit features, and we may suspend or end your access. We aim to be proportionate.
Blank Pro is an optional, auto-renewing subscription. It adds two practice conversations a day in any situation on top of the daily conversation (three a day in total), every lesson in every course, read-aloud character voices, Redo that moment, and your full history of transcripts and feedback.
Prices are in US dollars and don’t include any applicable tax. The price shown in the app when you buy is the price you pay.
You can use Blank without paying. The free tier includes the daily conversation, the practice conversation during setup, the first lesson of every course, voice replies, scores, levels, streaks and your Persona. The daily conversation is never locked behind a subscription.
We may add, change or remove features over time. If a change significantly reduces what Blank Pro includes, we’ll tell you in the app first.
Blank checks messages for signs of crisis. If it finds them, it pauses practice and shows crisis resources. It doesn’t contact anyone on your behalf, and it can miss things. Our safety protocol explains how it works.
Our Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how we use it and how to delete it. It is part of these Terms.
You can stop using Blank at any time. To delete your data, use Profile → Privacy → Delete my data. If you have a subscription, cancel it through Apple too.
We may suspend or end your access to Blank if you seriously or repeatedly break these Terms, if the law requires it, or if we stop offering Blank. If we stop offering Blank, we’ll try to give you reasonable notice in the app.
The sections on disclaimers, limitation of liability, governing law, Apple and general terms continue to apply after the agreement ends.
Blank is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement.
We don’t promise that Blank will be uninterrupted or error-free, that AI-generated content will be accurate or appropriate, or that using Blank will lead to any particular result. Some places don’t allow certain warranties to be excluded, so some of this may not apply to you.
To the fullest extent the law allows, we won’t be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits or goodwill, arising from or related to Blank or these Terms. Our total liability for all claims related to Blank is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for Blank in the 12 months before the claim, or US$50.
These limits apply to every kind of claim, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, even if we were told the damage was possible. They don’t limit liability that can’t be limited by law, and nothing in these Terms takes away rights you have that can’t be waived by contract.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute related to Blank or these Terms will be decided by the state or federal courts located in California, and you and we consent to their jurisdiction. Either of us may bring a qualifying claim in small claims court instead.
Before filing a claim, please contact us through the support form so we can try to resolve it informally.
We may update these Terms. We’ll post the new version here with a new effective date, and if a change is material we’ll tell you in the app before it takes effect. If you keep using Blank after a change takes effect, you accept the updated Terms. If you don’t agree, stop using Blank and cancel any subscription.
If you got Blank from Apple’s App Store, these points also apply:
These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about Blank. If a court finds part of these Terms unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. If we don’t enforce part of these Terms, that isn’t a waiver. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms; we may transfer ours, for example as part of a sale or reorganization of Blank.
Questions about these Terms: use the support form, or open Profile → Help in the app. Blank is made by Anish Polakala, United States.
Effective September 24, 2026.
