Terms of Service

Last updated: March 2026

MedLit AI Digest is a professional medical literature monitoring tool. By using this service, you confirm that you are a qualified healthcare professional, academic researcher, or biomedical scientist, and that you will use the service for legitimate professional or research purposes only.

1. Who may use this service

MedLit AI Digest is intended for qualified healthcare professionals and academic researchers in biomedical fields, including but not limited to: NHS consultants, surgeons, general practitioners, clinical researchers, PhD candidates, and clinical trialists.

This service is not intended for use by students seeking to have academic coursework, essays, or assignments written or summarised on their behalf. Use of this service to produce content to be submitted as original academic work is a violation of these terms.

2. Not medical advice

AI-generated summaries, relevance scores, and digest content provided by MedLit AI Digest are for literature awareness purposes only. They do not constitute medical advice, clinical recommendations, or a substitute for professional clinical judgement.

All AI-generated content should be verified against the original source publications before being used in clinical practice, research, or patient care. MedLit AI Digest accepts no liability for clinical decisions made in reliance on AI-generated summaries.

3. Paper sourcing

All papers are sourced from PubMed/MEDLINE, the National Library of Medicine's publicly indexed database of peer-reviewed biomedical literature. MedLit AI Digest does not create, fabricate, or alter paper titles, authors, abstracts, or DOI links. Links resolve to the original publication.

Access to full-text articles is subject to the terms of the original publisher. MedLit AI Digest provides abstracts and AI-generated summaries only — it does not provide full-text content.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Use the service to produce content to be submitted as your own academic work.
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or systematically copy the service or its outputs.
  • Share account credentials or allow others to access the service through your account.
  • Use the service in any way that violates applicable law or professional codes of conduct.

5. Free beta

The service is currently provided free of charge during a limited beta period. No payment information is collected. We reserve the right to introduce paid tiers at a future date, with advance notice to existing users.

Beta access may be revoked at any time if usage is found to violate these terms or if the beta capacity is exceeded.

6. Account termination

You may delete your account at any time by contacting [email protected]. We will permanently delete your account and all associated data within 30 days.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, with or without notice.

7. Limitation of liability

MedLit AI Digest is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of AI-generated summaries or PubMed search results. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we accept no liability for any loss or damage arising from use of this service.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated to registered users by email before taking effect. Continued use of the service after notification constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
