Privacy

Hot Takes Studio reads your drafts so you can see the comment section coming. Here's what that involves.

What we collect

• Account details: your email and sign-in method.
• Profile and persona details you enter, like niche, audience, platforms and brand voice.
• The text of drafts, comments and notes you submit, plus the scores and suggestions we return.
• Transcripts of video audio when you're signed in and upload a video.
• Basic usage events (counts and scores, never post text) to understand how the product is used.

What we never store

Photos, videos and audio you upload are processed in the moment and never saved. We keep only short text labels and, for videos, the transcript.

Who processes your data

Drafts are sent to an AI provider (Anthropic) to generate reads, and audio is sent to a transcription provider (Deepgram). They process it to return a result to you.

Feedback and learning

If you opt in, your ratings and results may be reviewed to improve our guidance. You can turn this off at any time in your profile. We don't automatically train models on your posts.

Your choices

You can delete individual reads, or delete your whole account from your profile. Deleting your account removes your personas, reads, check-ins, chats and Damage Control cases.
