Terms
The deal, in plain words: your content is yours, sites start private, don't scam anyone, and paid plans never hold your work hostage. Effective August 12, 2026.
These terms cover Drivethrough: the websites you create through an AI assistant or our command-line tool, hosted by us. Using Drivethrough — through drivethrough.dev, a site on drivethrough.site, or the Drivethrough connector your assistant talks to — means you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the service.
You sign in with Google and need a working email address. Your account is yours alone: what happens under it — including what an AI assistant you've connected does on your behalf — is your responsibility. If you connect an assistant and it deploys something, that's your deploy.
You must be old enough to have a Google account in your country, and you can't use Drivethrough if the law where you live forbids it.
Everything you publish — pages, files, data, form submissions your sites collect — belongs to you. We claim no ownership. You give us just enough permission to do the job you're asking for: storing your content, serving it to the people you've chosen, and keeping its version history.
You're responsible for what you publish: you need the rights to it, and it must be legal. If a guest submits something through your site's forms, you're the one holding that data — treat it with care.
No scams, no phishing, no malware, no illegal content, and nothing designed to deceive or harm people. A Drivethrough address should be one people can trust — that's a founding rule, and it protects every other person hosting here.
Every site goes through automated safety checks before it's served, and a site that's flagged may be blocked from publishing or suspended. If yours is caught by mistake, request a fresh automated review at drivethrough.dev/appeal — if it passes, the site is live again immediately, no waiting on a human.
Every site starts private, visible only to you. Sharing is your call: share links go to exactly the people you choose, and those guests never need accounts. Making a site public is also your call — and public means public: anyone with the address can see it.
The free plan includes 3 private sites, 1 public site, share links that last 30 days, and 500 MB of space — no credit card, no time limit. The Personal plan is $49.99 a year (or $4.99 monthly) and adds unlimited private sites, permanent share links, 3 more public sites, support for a domain you own, and 5 GB of space. Current plans are always described at drivethrough.dev/pricing.
Paid plans renew automatically until you cancel, which you can do any time from your dashboard; billing is handled by our payment processor, and card details never touch our servers. If a plan ends, nothing is held hostage: what's already online stays online, and limits simply return to the free tier for new things.
If you buy a domain through us, the first-year price and its renewal price are shown before you pay. A registered domain can't be un-registered, so domain purchases aren't refundable once the registration goes through.
You can delete a site, or your whole account, whenever you like. A deleted site is recoverable for 30 days, then destroyed for good. We may suspend sites or accounts that break these terms — scam and phishing pages are suspended on the spot — and in serious or repeated cases, close the account.
If we ever discontinue the service, we'll give you reasonable notice and a way to take your content with you.
Drivethrough is provided as-is. We work hard to keep it fast and dependable, but we can't promise it will never be down, never lose data, or always be error-free — keep copies of anything you can't afford to lose. Don't build anything on Drivethrough where an outage could hurt someone.
To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you is limited to what you've paid us in the twelve months before the claim — and we're not liable for indirect damages, lost profits, or what third parties do with what you publish.
If these terms change in a way that matters, we'll note it here with a new effective date and give notice on the site. Questions? Write to us on the support page — a human reads it.
