Effective Date: July 10, 2026
These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and AIVIATION LLC ("we," "us," or "our") and govern your use of Clearance AI (the "App"). By downloading, installing, or using the App -- and by accepting the one-time acknowledgement shown when you first set up the App -- you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
1. Description of Service
Clearance AI is a non-certified, advisory in-flight copilot. It listens to Air Traffic Control (ATC) audio through your headset, transcribes it on your device, and displays the clearances it extracts on a visual scoreboard, enriched by your device position, airport data, and your flight plan. It is display-only: it does not navigate, does not drive or command any aircraft system, and does not transmit on your behalf. It is designed to run alongside your electronic flight bag and your own listening and readback, not to replace them.
Advisory Use Only -- You Are the Pilot in Command
SITUATIONAL AWARENESS ONLY. Clearance AI is a non-certified electronic aid that provides situational awareness only. It is NOT a navigation source, NOT an Electronic Flight Bag, and NOT a substitute for listening to ATC and reading back your clearances. Do not use it for navigation or as a primary or sole source of clearance information.
AUTOMATION CAN BE WRONG. The App's transcription and clearance extraction are automated and may be incomplete, delayed, or incorrect, especially in noisy or degraded radio conditions. Always rely on the controller's spoken clearance and your own readback, not on what the App displays.
PILOT IN COMMAND RETAINS FULL RESPONSIBILITY. The pilot in command remains solely responsible for the safe and legal operation of the aircraft, for hearing and reading back ATC clearances, and for compliance with all ATC instructions and applicable regulations. Never make a safety-of-flight decision based on the App.
NOT AN FAA PRODUCT. Clearance AI is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by the Federal Aviation Administration, and it is not a certified aviation product.
STERILE COCKPIT / DISTRACTION. You are responsible for managing cockpit workload and for complying with sterile-cockpit and all other operating rules. Do not let the App distract you from flying the aircraft.
2. License Grant
Subject to these Terms, AIVIATION LLC grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App as an advisory situational-awareness aid on Apple-branded devices that you own or control. This license is for your own use; you may not redistribute, resell, or provide access to the App as a service to others.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years of age to use the App. By using the App, you represent that you meet this requirement and that you are a pilot or student pilot, or are otherwise using the App for lawful, aviation-related purposes.
4. Automated Transcription and AI Disclaimer
The App uses on-device speech recognition and on-device intelligence to transcribe ATC audio and extract clearances. This automated output may contain errors, omissions, or misinterpretations of phraseology or instructions, and may lag or miss transmissions. The App displays what it heard and what it extracted; it does not verify your readback and does not guarantee that any displayed clearance is complete or correct. Always verify against the controller's spoken clearance. See the Advisory Use Only notice in Section 1.
5. Subscriptions and Pricing
Clearance AI offers a Free tier and an auto-renewable Pro subscription. All purchases are processed by Apple through StoreKit and are charged to your Apple ID.
- Free -- the manual clearance scoreboard, which you fill in by hand. No subscription required and no account needed.
- Pro -- the live copilot: continuous on-device transcription, automatic clearance extraction, call-sign alerts, live scoreboard auto-fill, context enrichment, flight-plan import, and Live Activity. Offered as an auto-renewable monthly or annual subscription.
Pricing: Current prices for the monthly and annual plans are shown in the App and on the App Store before you purchase, and may vary by region. Prices may change; any change applies to future billing periods.
Free trial: A 7-day free trial is available to first-time subscribers on the annual plan only; the monthly plan does not include a free trial. You will not be charged during the trial. If you do not cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, your subscription automatically converts to a paid annual subscription at the price shown at purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
Auto-renewal: Subscriptions automatically renew unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period, at the price shown at purchase.
Managing and canceling: You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in iOS Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you keep Pro access until that date.
Refunds: Purchases are processed by Apple and are subject to Apple's refund policies. Request refunds through Apple, not through us.
Device capability: Some Pro features, including the highest-fidelity clearance extraction, depend on Apple Intelligence and an eligible device. The App discloses this at the paywall. The deterministic parser and on-device transcription function on any supported device.
6. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the App for navigation, or as a primary or sole source of clearance information;
- Act on a displayed clearance without hearing and confirming it directly with ATC;
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
- Redistribute, resell, or provide access to the App or its content to others;
- Use the App to build a competing product or service;
- Use the App for any unlawful purpose.
7. Intellectual Property
FAA Order 7110.65 and the Aeronautical Information Manual are U.S. Government publications in the public domain; AIVIATION LLC claims no copyright in those underlying texts. The App -- including its design, code, on-device models, clearance-extraction grammar, and branding -- is the property of AIVIATION LLC and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. "Clearance AI" and "AIVIATION" are trademarks of AIVIATION LLC.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TRANSCRIPTION AND CLEARANCE EXTRACTION MAY CONTAIN ERRORS AND ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR LISTENING TO ATC, READING BACK CLEARANCES, OR THE JUDGMENT OF THE PILOT IN COMMAND.
9. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:
- WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP, INCLUDING ANY DAMAGES ARISING FROM RELIANCE ON DISPLAYED TRANSCRIPTIONS OR CLEARANCES.
- WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY AVIATION DECISION, FLIGHT-SAFETY OUTCOME, OR REGULATORY COMPLIANCE INFLUENCED BY USE OF THE APP; THE PILOT IN COMMAND IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE.
- OUR TOTAL LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE SUBSCRIPTION FEES YOU PAID FOR THE APP IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless AIVIATION LLC from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the App or your violation of these Terms.
11. Service Availability
We strive to keep the App available but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time.
12. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the App if you violate these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive termination -- including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification -- survive.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be posted here with a new effective date. Continued use of the App after the new effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
14. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, and the exclusive venue for any dispute is the state and federal courts located in Florida. Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable rights you may have under the consumer-protection laws of your state of residence.
15. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
16. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and AIVIATION LLC regarding the App.
