Terms of Service

Effective October 21, 2026.

What Kakete is — and isn't

Kakete explains Japanese documents in plain language using AI. It is an explanation aid, not legal, tax, immigration or financial advice, and the AI can make mistakes — especially with blurry photos. Always verify amounts, deadlines and obligations against the original document or with the sender, your city office, or a qualified professional before acting.

Plans

• Free: 3 scans per calendar month per device.
• Pro (when available): ¥480/month, unlimited scans subject to fair use (personal mail volume, not bulk or automated processing). We may throttle clearly abusive usage.

Acceptable use

Don't upload documents you have no right to process, don't use the service for unlawful purposes, and don't attempt to probe, scrape or overload it.

Liability

The service is provided "as is". To the maximum extent permitted by law, our liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. We are not liable for consequences of acting on an AI explanation that you did not verify.

Changes & termination

We may update the service and these terms; the effective date above will change. You can stop using the service anytime; local data is deleted from Settings.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Japan; exclusive jurisdiction is the Tokyo District Court.
