Privacy

Would I Reply? is run by Nick Dunse. This page says what we keep, why, and for how long.

The messages you paste

When you check a message, we send it (with the subject and the optional "who it's for" line) to our AI provider, Anthropic, which runs the Claude model that judges it. Anthropic processes it to produce your result. Under Anthropic's commercial terms, it doesn't use this to train its models, and it keeps it only for a limited time for safety and abuse checks. See Anthropic's privacy policy for the current details.

So the same message always gets the same answer, we keep the result of each check for 90 days, then delete it. It's sealed with a key made from the message itself, so it can only be opened by checking that exact message again: we can't read it or link it to you. Beyond that, we only keep a message if you save and share it (kept for 90 days, then deleted), or you're on Pro (your history is kept for 90 days, then deleted).

Please don't paste anything confidential, or personal details you don't need to.

Your account

If you buy a check or sign in, we keep your email address, your plan and your check balance. Payments are handled by Stripe: we never see your card details. Sign-in links work once and expire after 30 minutes.

Shared links

A shared result link is private: it isn't listed or indexed, and it can't be guessed. Anyone you give it to can see it. It's deleted after 90 days, or sooner if you ask.

Real pitches in the examples

Some examples are real pitches Nick has received. Before one is published, names, companies, products, job titles, contact details and identifying numbers are replaced with placeholders like [Their company], Nick checks it by hand, and the scorecard is run again on the anonymised text. The original is deleted when the example is published. If you think an example identifies you or your company, email hello@wouldireply.com and it will be taken down.

Cookies and rate limits

We use a cookie to keep your account on this browser. We don't use advertising or tracking cookies. To stop abuse, we count requests per IP address, but we only store a scrambled (hashed) form of it, for up to a day.
