The short version
- Grove is still in beta — expect rough edges; things may break, change, or occasionally lose data.
- We'd love your help: use Grove for real, and tell us what's working and what isn't.
- Anything you share with us — feedback, ideas, bug reports — we can use to make Grove better.
- Most of Grove stays free for the life of your account as a thank-you — even after we add paid plans.
- We're still in stealth, so please keep unreleased features and screenshots between us for now.
- This sits alongside Grove's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which cover your data and your rights.
A quick hello
Thanks for being one of the first people to grow a grove with us. You're testing something we're still building, which means you'll see things before they're polished — and your feedback genuinely shapes where Grove goes next. This page covers the few things specific to being a beta tester. Everything else lives in our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
What we ask of you
Being a beta tester is simple: use Grove for real, and let us know how it's going. We hope you'll:
- Use Grove regularly, the way you'd use any tool you rely on
- Try new features as we add them
- Tell us what's broken, confusing, or missing — a quick note beats a perfect bug report
There's no quota and no test to pass.
What "beta" means
The beta version of Grove is provided as-is. Features may be incomplete or change without notice, and things will occasionally break. We back up regularly and treat your data carefully, but during beta we can't promise it'll always be preserved — so please don't keep anything in Grove you couldn't bear to lose. The export and deletion rights in our Terms of Service still apply to whatever's in your grove. We may also change, pause, or remove parts of the beta at any time as we figure out what Grove should be.
Your feedback
By "feedback" we mean your comments, suggestions, and bug reports about Grove — not the personal data you store in Grove, which stays yours under our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Send it freely, no need to ask first. In plain terms: by sharing feedback, you give us a lasting, no-strings license to use it to improve Grove. If you can, please leave other people's personal details out of screenshots and bug reports. If a screenshot does include them, we delete it once we've acted on your feedback or otherwise in line with our Privacy Policy.
Keeping Grove under wraps
Grove is still growing quietly — we're not ready to show it to the world just yet. Please keep unreleased features and screenshots between us, and don't share them publicly without checking with us first. If you're ever unsure what's okay to share, just ask: hello@findgrove.com.
Our thank-you to you
As a thank-you for helping us build Grove, most of Grove's features stay free for you, for the life of your account — even if we introduce paid plans later. A few of the most advanced features may sit in a paid tier down the road, but the heart of Grove stays free for you. Taking part in the beta is voluntary: beyond that free access, you aren't owed payment, equity, or credit for feedback, testing, or ideas we end up using.
How this fits with our other terms
This page works together with Grove's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. For the two things specific to the beta — your free access and how we use your feedback — this page is what controls. For everything else (your data, your privacy rights, acceptable use, our AI features, and the diagnostic and usage data we collect), the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy govern.
By joining the Grove beta, you're agreeing to these beta terms along with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Questions? Email hello@findgrove.com — a real person on the Grove team will reply.
