Higher = more protective of you, the user/customer — a deliberately user-protective lens, not a universal “good vs bad” score. Computed algorithmically from PlanetScale’s cited governance stances; no dimension we haven’t confidently read is ever counted against the score. Free, reproducible, and never purchasable.

Key Governance Provisions
High Exclusion of indirect and consequential damages

The exclusion covers a wide range of damage categories, meaning customers are limited to direct damages when seeking compensation from PlanetScale.

High Customer irrevocably releases PlanetScale from AI output liability

The release is irrevocable and covers all liability related to AI Output, foreclosing copyright and other claims against PlanetScale after acceptance.

High Customer responsible for all AI input and output

The customer bears full responsibility for both what is submitted to and what is generated by the AI feature, including legal and contractual compliance.

High PlanetScale indemnifies customer for patent copyright infringement

The defense obligation is scoped to U.S. patents and copyrights and is limited to claims arising from allegations about the Product itself, providing defined but not unlimited IP protection.

High Liability cap at six months of fees paid

The cap ties maximum recoverable damages to a fixed historical payment window, which may be substantially lower than actual losses suffered.
