Terms of Service

The rules for using fewertools, including what Make will and will not do.

Last reviewed:

Make gives you a route, not a finished file. It helps an adult choose a method and tools, then follow a local project. It does not perform the work, upload media, or access tool accounts.

Free tool submissions

From 31 October 2026, new tool submissions and corrections are free. Existing unpaid submissions no longer require review payment. Submission does not guarantee inclusion, a favourable decision or a fixed review date. Existing paid £15 and £19 reviews retain their original scope, deadline, cancellation and refund terms below; those review offers are closed to new orders.

Homepage sponsorship: £29 for seven days

£29 GBP is the one-off total for one clearly labelled Sponsored homepage card for seven consecutive 24-hour days. We confirm suitability, the approved card, destination link and exact start/end times in writing before requesting payment through a Stripe invoice. An enquiry is not an order or reservation. We manually verify payment before scheduling; a payment alone never publishes a card.

One placement runs at a time, directly below the homepage hero and before the maker panel and editorial gallery. It includes one approved image or logo, product name, short factual description and website link marked as sponsored. The advertiser must have permission to supply the assets and must substantiate claims. No guarantee of impressions, clicks, leads, sales, catalogue inclusion or search-engine benefit is made. Rankings, opinions, scores and ordinary editorial decisions are not for sale.

Cancel before the agreed start for a full refund. If we cannot deliver the booked period, you can choose agreed replacement dates or a full refund. If display is interrupted, we extend by the missed time or refund the undelivered portion. Requests go to clinton@fewertools.com. Statutory rights are unaffected. Other changes to creative or dates require written agreement.

Agreement to these terms

By accessing or using fewertools.com, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site. The directory, Make, and Editions clauses apply to the public services described below.

FEWERTOOLS LTD operates fewertools.com and Fewertools Editions. FEWERTOOLS LTD is registered in England and Wales under company number 17022891. Its registered office is 607 The Almere Flat 607 The Almere, Avebury Boulevard, Milton Keynes, England, MK9 2GG. Contact clinton@fewertools.com.

What the directory provides

Fewertools is an informational directory providing software research, recommendations and comparisons, curated stacks for different use cases, educational content, and links to independent tools and services.

Directory warranties and disclaimers

The directory and its content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis to the extent permitted by law. Recommendations are opinions based on available research and experience, not guarantees or professional legal, financial, security, or technical advice. Tool features, prices, licences, security, availability, and provider terms can change. Verify material details with the official provider before relying on them.

Fewertools does not control or warrant third-party tools. A listing, comparison, or link does not guarantee suitability, legality, accuracy, uptime, support, or a particular result.

Affiliate links and compensation

A labelled referral or affiliate link can earn Fewertools money if you use it; the Affiliate Disclosure lists every such link. Compensation must not determine whether a tool is included, hide a materially better option, or change the substance of an editorial recommendation. See the Affiliate Disclosure.

Fewertools intellectual property

Unless stated otherwise, Fewertools owns the site's original text, graphics, logos, data arrangement, and overall design. You may quote brief excerpts for commentary, review, or education with clear attribution and a link. You may not reproduce, republish, sell, scrape at scale, or create a substitute database or derivative publication from Fewertools content without permission. Third-party tool names, logos, and trademarks remain the property of their owners and are used for identification.

User conduct

You must not use the site to break the law, interfere with service operation or another visitor, probe or access restricted systems, bypass controls, submit deceptive or harmful material, impersonate another person, introduce malware, or scrape content at scale. Reasonable indexing by ordinary search engines is not prohibited by this clause.

Newsletter and communications

If you subscribe, you consent only to the requested email purpose shown beside that form. Joining The Drop does not request Editions emails, and joining Editions does not request The Drop. You may unsubscribe through any email. If you contact us, you authorize us to use the submitted details to respond, administer the request, and retain a reasonable support or rights record. The Privacy Policy explains the active Beehiiv and Resend flows.

Private launch-page audits

The optional £29 launch-page audit is a private service supplied by FEWERTOOLS LTD and paid through Stripe. Its scope, delivery and cancellation terms are provided before checkout. Payment for an audit does not buy catalogue inclusion, faster consideration, a public review, a verdict or a ranking change. Under the former offer, new tool submissions required the £15 submission review below. Corrections remain free; existing submissions and orders keep their original terms.

Existing paid orders only: Submission review · £15

Submission review is a £15 GBP one-off service supplied by FEWERTOOLS LTD and paid through Stripe. It covers one tool you have already sent through the submission form. Stripe may offer a local-currency conversion; check its displayed total before payment.

The total fee is £15 GBP for one tool. Saving the form or visiting checkout does not confirm payment. We manually verify Stripe payment and match it to the saved submission. Do not pay again while your receipt is awaiting an update.

Within three working days after confirmed payment, we email you our decision on catalogue inclusion and a short note on what we could and could not verify from the tool’s official public pages. Working days are Monday to Friday, excluding England and Wales bank holidays.

The fee pays for the review, so it is the same whatever we decide and is not refunded because of the decision. If we do not send the decision and note within three working days, we refund the fee in full. If the website URL at checkout does not match a submission, or the tool’s website cannot be reached, we contact you; if that is not resolved, we refund in full.

This section preserves the terms of reviews already paid for before the offer closed on 31 October 2026. Unpaid submissions no longer need payment and receive free consideration without a committed deadline. An existing paid review does not buy catalogue inclusion, a ranking, score, recommendation or favourable verdict. Its original disclosure obligations remain.

Checkout asks you to request a prompt start. If buying as a consumer, you can cancel within 14 days from the day after the contract is made. By selecting the prompt-start option, you expressly request the review during that period and acknowledge that the cancellation right ends when the review is fully delivered. If you cancel before the review starts, you receive a full refund. Cancel by emailing clinton@fewertools.com with “I cancel my submission review order”, the order date and your checkout email. Statutory rights remain unaffected.

Existing paid orders only: Earlier submissions and £19 Express orders

The £19 Express offer is closed to new orders from 31 October 2026. Earlier unpaid submissions continue free consideration without a committed decision date. Existing paid £19 Express orders retain the service, deadline and protections below. No further payment is requested.

Within three working days after confirmed payment, we email you our decision on catalogue inclusion and a short note on what we could and could not verify from the tool’s official public pages. Working days are Monday to Friday, excluding England and Wales bank holidays.

The fee pays for the review, so it is the same whatever we decide and is not refunded because of the decision. If we do not send the decision and note within three working days, we refund the fee in full. If the website URL at checkout does not match a submission, or the tool’s website cannot be reached, we contact you; if that is not resolved, we refund in full.

Legacy Express review uses the same editorial criteria as earlier submissions and independent editorial additions. It does not buy catalogue inclusion, a ranking, a score, a label such as “Our Pick” or “Recommended”, a verdict, a public review or later updates. A tool listed through express review shows a note saying so, and its outbound website link is marked as sponsored.

Checkout asks you to request a prompt start. If buying as a consumer, you can cancel within 14 days from the day after the contract is made. By selecting the prompt-start option, you expressly request the review during that period and acknowledge that the cancellation right ends when the review is fully delivered. If you cancel before the review starts, you receive a full refund. Cancel by emailing clinton@fewertools.com with “I cancel my express review order”, the order date and your checkout email. Statutory rights remain unaffected.

Third-party links and transactions

External websites, software providers, and merchants have their own content, terms, prices, licences, privacy practices, security, billing, cancellation, and refund rules. Except for our private launch-page audit, submission review, legacy express review and a purchase that a Fewertools Editions page clearly identifies as available under the Editions terms below, Fewertools does not operate or control those services and is not a party to your transaction with them. Review the provider's current terms before creating an account, uploading data, or paying.

Fewertools Editions digital products

Purchase is not currently available. The Editions pages are an evergreen artwork preview and do not contain an active checkout, price, or download promise.

Before a digital product becomes available, the product page and checkout must identify the exact product, included customer files, total price and currency, compatible file formats, delivery method, usage licence, support contact, cancellation and refund terms, and the checkout provider's role. Immediate digital delivery will not begin until the checkout obtains any consent and acknowledgement required for digital content. A view of the collection does not grant a download, reproduction, resale, or commercial-use licence.

What Make provides

Make lets you describe a digital job, confirm the intended outcome, compare suitable methods, receive an allowlisted route, and follow the steps in a local project. Depending on the request, the route can use reviewed local guidance or the paid Gemini API to interpret the task and assemble the route.

Make does not upload, fetch, or analyse your files or links. It does not create the final media, website, document, campaign, or account for you. It does not access a recommended tool on your behalf. You decide whether to use a recommendation and remain responsible for your work.

AI interpretation and optional research

AI output can be incomplete, inaccurate, or unsuitable. Fewertools limits route assembly to reviewed tools and evidence, but it does not guarantee that a route will fit every circumstance or that a third-party feature, price, licence, or policy remains unchanged.

Google Search grounding runs only after separate explicit consent and appears as a read-only preview. It does not become the route, start a project, or create a Fewertools ranking. Review the cited provider pages before relying on current facts.

Your rights confirmation and responsibilities

You must answer follow-up questions accurately. You are responsible for checking that your ownership, licence, permission, consent, or legal exception covers the inputs, intended changes, output, audience, platform, territory, and commercial use.

Fewertools can identify practical risk questions and suggest a safer adaptation. It does not guarantee legal clearance and does not replace advice from a qualified professional.

Copyright and creative expression

You must not use Make to copy protected media, scripts, characters, artwork, performances, or distinctive creative expression without the required rights. A route may preserve general production ideas such as pacing, framing, lighting, or structure while asking you to replace protected expression. Copyright exceptions vary by jurisdiction and context.

Likeness, voice, and real people

You must have the authority and consent required to use a person's face, body, voice, name, performance, or identity. Non-consensual intimate content, deceptive impersonation, biometric identification, sensitive-trait inference, harassment, fraud, and unsafe exploitation are prohibited. Fewertools may refuse the request and suggest a fictional or user-owned alternative.

Music, logos, and brands

Possessing a music file does not necessarily grant rights to its composition, recording, performance, sync, or commercial use. Platform music licences may not cover export elsewhere. You must also have the rights needed for logos, packaging, trade dress, product images, and other brand assets. Fewertools may route you to licensed, generated, generic, or user-owned replacements.

Project data, model services, and deletion

The Privacy Policy explains when task text is sent, Gemini retention, optional Search grounding, content-free operational records, and local browser projects. Deleting a local project removes it from that browser but cannot delete provider retention copies or content-free operational records already created.

Takedown and repeat infringement

Rights holders and authorized representatives may use the process in our Takedown Policy. Fewertools may restrict content or access while reviewing a credible notice. Repeated or serious infringement may lead to warnings, project restrictions, suspension, or termination where appropriate and lawful. False or abusive reports are prohibited.

No Make payment or account

This Make release does not offer a paid plan, checkout, subscription, or Fewertools account. It does not synchronize projects between devices. Recommended third-party tools may require their own account or payment under their own terms. Fewertools Editions has the separate inactive digital-product terms above.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Fewertools and its operator will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive loss arising from use of or inability to use the directory, reliance on directory content, a third-party tool or transaction, unauthorized access, or errors and omissions. For Make, we do not warrant uninterrupted operation, exact analysis, legal clearance, creative success, third-party availability, or a particular business result. Nothing in these terms excludes rights or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold Fewertools and its operator harmless from third-party claims, losses, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of the site, material you submit, infringement of another person's rights, or material breach of these terms.

Make availability and age

You must be 18 or over to use Make. FEWERTOOLS LTD offers Make from the United Kingdom. You may use it only where the service and your intended use are lawful. Some providers, features, or recommended tools may be unavailable in your location.

Service operator location: United Kingdom.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms when the directory, Make service, provider contracts, platform rules, or law changes. Material changes will receive a new review date. Continued use after an updated version takes effect means the updated terms apply to later use, subject to rights that cannot lawfully be waived.

Governing law

These terms and any non-contractual dispute are governed by the law of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction, except that mandatory consumer rights and any mandatory right to bring a claim in your home forum are not limited by this clause.

Severability

If a provision is found unlawful or unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.
