Terms of Use

Updated 2026-11-01 · 中文

In short

Kaiko helps you practice speaking Chinese: chat with AI characters in everyday situations while an AI coach fixes your mistakes. Use it to practice the language, and have fun.

1. Who provides it

The app is provided by Chunlin Zhou (Kaiko Labs) ("we"). Using it means you accept these terms and the privacy notice; members also accept the Membership Terms and the Auto-Renewal Terms.

2. AI-generated content

What the people you talk to and the coach say, the tutor’s answers, live translations and your own lessons are generated by a professional AI model, and the voices are synthesised. A small line at the bottom of those screens says "AI-generated content".

AI can be wrong. At a doctor’s, with documents or contracts, or wherever it matters, go by the original text and what the staff tell you.

3. Fair use

Please don’t enter, or lead the AI to produce, anything illegal, sexual, violent, abusive or that infringes someone’s rights, and don’t call the service in bulk or get around its limits. If you do, we may limit or suspend your use.

If the AI produces something inappropriate, tell us under Me → About → Report content. We act on reports every week and answer within 15 working days.

4. Rights in the content

The lessons, characters, images and design belong to us or to those who licensed them to us. Use them and the AI’s replies for your own learning, but don’t copy them wholesale or use them commercially.

5. Changes to the service

We keep improving the app, and the free tier may change; what members have paid for is kept for the paid period. If the network or our server has trouble, some features may pause for a while; we fix it as fast as we can.

6. Children

Under 14: please use the app with a parent’s or guardian’s consent and company. Under 18: ask a parent or guardian before paying.

7. Everything else

We will tell you in the app before an important change to these terms. They are governed by the laws of the People’s Republic of China.
