Terms and Conditions

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Evidence Table Builder, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you disagree with any part of these terms, you may not access the service.

2. Service Description

Evidence Table Builder provides AI-powered data extraction services for research papers. We reserve the right to:

• Modify or discontinue any part of the service with notice
• Limit service availability based on geographic location or other criteria
• Restrict access to or use of parts of the service
• Monitor service usage to ensure compliance

2.1 Evaluation and Validation

Evidence Table Builder may participate in independent methodological evaluations, validation studies, or pilot assessments with academic or non-profit evidence synthesis organizations, subject to data protection safeguards and user consent.

3. AI Assistance and Human Oversight

Evidence Table Builder uses artificial intelligence to assist with data extraction from research papers. However:

• AI outputs are assistance only; researchers retain full responsibility for verifying all extracted data, conclusions, and interpretations
• Users must maintain human oversight and auditability throughout their research workflows
• All final decisions regarding data inclusion, analysis, and reporting remain with qualified researchers
• AI-generated content should not be used without appropriate human verification and validation

This service is designed to enhance research efficiency while maintaining the highest standards of scientific rigor and accountability.

Users are responsible for determining whether AI-assisted extraction is appropriate for their specific evidence synthesis and for justifying its use in protocols, methods sections, or supplementary materials where required by publishers, funders, or regulatory bodies.

Limitations and Uncertainty

AI-assisted extraction may be affected by reporting quality, document structure, language, or domain specificity of the source material. Confidence scores are provided to signal uncertainty and guide human verification, not to replace expert judgement.

3.1 Reporting and Disclosure
