If Tabnine causes you harm — including through data loss, service failure, or AI errors — the most money you can ever recover from them is either what you paid them in the last year, or $100, whichever is more.
This analysis describes what Tabnine's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
The liability cap restricts the scope of financial remedies available through claims related to service use, establishing a defined ceiling for potential damages recovery regardless of the nature or extent of alleged harm. This provision defines the outer boundary of Tabnine's financial exposure under the agreement.
This cap means that even if Tabnine's AI causes you significant financial or legal harm — for example, by generating infringing code that results in a lawsuit — you can recover at most $100 if you are a free user, creating a severe imbalance of risk between you and the company.
