7. AI-Generated Analysis & Insights
The App includes an AI-powered analysis feature that generates stock insights using artificial intelligence (currently provided by Anthropic's Claude API). All AI-generated content is provided "AS IS" strictly for informational and educational purposes. By using the AI features, you acknowledge and agree that:
- AI-generated analysis does not constitute financial advice, investment recommendations, or any form of professional guidance. It must not be used as the sole or primary basis for any investment, trading, or financial decision.
- AI outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or misleading. The AI model may produce errors, hallucinations, or statements that appear authoritative but are factually incorrect. We make no warranty regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of any AI-generated content.
- AI analysis is generated based on limited data points (price, recent news headlines, and basic company information) and does not reflect a comprehensive evaluation of any security, market condition, or investment opportunity.
- You use AI-generated features entirely at your own risk. The developer, its affiliates, and the AI service provider shall not be liable for any losses, damages, or claims arising from your reliance on AI-generated content.
- AI-generated content may be cached on your device for a limited period to reduce unnecessary API usage. Cached results may not reflect the most current market conditions.
- The AI feature is subject to daily usage limits and may be modified, restricted, or discontinued at any time without prior notice.
