Terms of Service
Effective 27 September 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and Taktek, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Taktek”, “we”), for the use of Lurker at professionallurker.com. By joining the early access list, subscribing to or using Lurker, you agree to them.
1. What Lurker does
Lurker reads public conversations on the platforms you choose (Reddit, Hacker News, LinkedIn, Substack and Product Hunt) and tells you, by WhatsApp and in a private web app, which ones you might want to join, while they are still young.
Lurker never posts, likes, follows, votes or messages for you, and never writes anything for you. Everything published under your name is written and published by you.
2. Early access
Lurker is in early access. We set people up one at a time, features may change, and a platform may be temporarily unavailable if that platform changes how it works. We will tell you about changes that affect what you pay for.
Lurker is not taking payments yet. If you press Start on a plan and leave your email, you join the early access list: nothing is charged and no payment details are collected. We will email you when your room opens, and you can ask to be removed at any time. The billing terms below apply once you choose to subscribe.
3. Plans and billing
- Lurker is priced per platform, per month, in US dollars, as shown on the pricing page. All five platforms together cost less than any four.
- Subscriptions are billed monthly in advance through Stripe, and renew each month until cancelled. Card details are handled by Stripe over an encrypted connection; we never see your full card number.
- There is no setup fee. Taxes may be added where the law requires.
- If we change a price, we will email you at least 30 days before it applies to you.
4. Cancellation and refunds
- You can cancel any time. Your plan stays active until the end of the month you paid for, and you won’t be charged again.
- If Lurker isn’t for you, email us within 14 days of your first charge and we will refund it in full.
- After that, payments for months already started are not refunded, except where the law says otherwise.
- To cancel or ask for a refund, email nizar@taktek.io.
5. Your responsibilities
- You must be at least 18 and able to enter this agreement.
- You are responsible for what you publish, and for following each platform’s rules. Lurker points you at conversations; whether and how you join them is your decision.
- Don’t use Lurker to spam, to coordinate votes, to harass anyone, or to mislead people about who you are.
6. Your content
You own what you give us and what you write. You allow us to use it only to provide Lurker to you, as described in our Privacy Policy. We own Lurker, its software and this website.
7. Other platforms
Lurker is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Reddit, Y Combinator or Hacker News, LinkedIn, Substack or Product Hunt. Their names belong to them. We don’t control those platforms, their rules or their availability.
8. No guarantees
Lurker finds conversations; it can’t promise anyone will read, like or answer what you write, or that your followers or karma will grow. Lurker is provided “as is”. It uses AI, which can be wrong: a thread it sends may turn out not to fit you. To the extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties not written in these terms.
9. Liability
To the extent the law allows, Taktek is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability for any claim about Lurker is limited to what you paid us in the three months before the claim.
10. Ending the agreement
You can stop at any time by cancelling. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms, with notice where we reasonably can. If we stop offering Lurker, we will refund any period you paid for and did not get.
11. Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Nothing here takes away rights you have under the consumer law of the country where you live.
12. Changes and contact
If we change these terms in a way that matters, we will email you before the change takes effect. Questions: nizar@taktek.io.
