Plain terms for a plain product: a free weekly brief and a tool that analyzes the rhetoric in text you give it. By using StrataLens, you agree to what follows.
01What StrataLens is
StrataLens publishes a weekly media-analysis brief and operates PRISM, a tool that maps propaganda and framing techniques in text you submit and returns a 0–10 manipulation estimate. It is a media-literacy aid — not legal, financial, or professional advice.
02The analysis is an estimate, not a verdict
This is the most important term on the page. PRISM's manipulation index and technique tags are a model's estimate of persuasive pressure — they are not a ruling on whether a claim is true, and not an accusation against any author or outlet. Always check the frame and the facts yourself. You are responsible for how you use and share the output.
03Acceptable use
- Submit text you have the right to share for analysis.
- Don't use StrataLens to harass, defame, or mislead.
- Don't attempt to break, overload, scrape, or reverse-engineer the service.
- Don't present PRISM output as a definitive factual judgment — it isn't one.
04Accounts & payment
- The weekly brief and a limited number of PRISM analyses per month are free.
- Pro unlocks a higher monthly limit and the full archive, billed through Stripe. You can cancel anytime; access runs to the end of the paid period.
- We may adjust free-tier limits or Pro pricing; material changes will be announced in the brief.
05Intellectual property
The brief, the PRISM interface, and our methodology are ours. The text you submit stays yours — you grant us only the limited right to process it to return your analysis. You're free to quote and share your own results with attribution.
06Disclaimers & liability
StrataLens is provided “as is.” We work to be accurate and fair, but we don't warrant that the analysis is error-free or fit for any particular decision. To the extent the law allows, StrataLens is not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the service.
07Changes
We may update these terms as the product evolves. The “last updated” date below reflects the current version, and continued use after a change means you accept it.
