Terms of Service

First Spotted turns public trends from TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest into plain-English trend cards and original design ideas for independent designers and sellers. Trend cards and ideas are written with the help of AI and are for inspiration only.

You must be at least 18 and give accurate information. Keep your password private; you're responsible for activity on your account. One account per person, please don't share logins.

• Free includes a limited number of trend cards each week.
• Pro, Founding Member, and Studio are paid subscriptions billed monthly or yearly at the price shown when you sign up. Founding Member pricing stays locked while the same subscription remains continuously active and payments stay current. Canceling, switching plans, or letting the subscription end gives up the Founding price. Read the Founding price clause.
• Subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. You can cancel any time and keep access until the end of the period you've paid for.
• Payments are non-refundable except where required by law, or at our discretion, just ask.
• We may change plan prices or features with at least 30 days' notice before your next renewal.

Design ideas are suggestions meant to spark your own original work. You own the designs you create. Ideas aren't exclusive, so other members may receive similar suggestions.

You're responsible for what you make and sell. Before selling, check that your design doesn't use anyone else's trademarks, copyrighted art, characters, logos, song lyrics, or a creator's original content. Cards flagged with an IP caution need extra care. We don't give legal advice and can't guarantee any idea is free to use.

Trends change fast. Card statuses (Rising, Peaking, Fading), numbers, timing, and shelf-life notes are our best read of public data at the time and may be incomplete or wrong. We don't promise any trend will sell. Links to TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest go to those platforms, which have their own terms; we aren't affiliated with them.

Please don't:

• Copy, resell, or republish trend cards or the service itself, or share paid content outside your account.
• Scrape, overload, or try to break into the service or other members' accounts.
• Use First Spotted to create content that's illegal, hateful, or infringes others' rights.

We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms.

Paid plans include the Monday email, and Studio includes instant niche alerts. You can turn these off on your Account page. We'll still send necessary account and billing emails.

The First Spotted name, app, and written trend cards belong to Gracefully Managed. You may use cards and ideas for your own business while your account is active.

We're always improving First Spotted and may add, change, or remove features. We aim for the service to be available, but it may sometimes be down or a trend source may pause. We can update these terms; if changes are meaningful, we'll notify members, and continuing to use the service means you accept them.

First Spotted is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we aren't liable for lost profits, lost sales, or indirect damages, and our total liability is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.

Read our Legal Disclaimer for the limits of AI-generated trend cards, design ideas, business guidance, and the Founding price promise.

You can stop using First Spotted at any time and ask us to delete your account by emailing sara@gracefullymanaged.com. We may end access if you break these terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Kansas, USA.
