The service

DecaLive gives students rubric-based feedback on prepared-event papers, pitch decks and role-play practice. Scores and comments are AI-generated estimates meant to help you improve. They are not official scores and do not predict or guarantee any competition result.

DecaLive is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by DECA Inc.

Your account

You must provide accurate information and keep your sign-in secure. You are responsible for activity on your account. If you are under 13, you may not use the service; if you are under 18, make sure a parent or guardian is aware you are using it.

Your content

You keep ownership of everything you upload. You give DecaLive a limited license to store, process and analyze it only to provide the service to you, including sending it to our AI providers for grading. We do not sell your work and do not use it to train AI models.

You confirm that you have the right to upload what you submit and that it does not violate anyone’s rights or the law.

Academic integrity

DecaLive is a feedback tool. You are responsible for following your chapter’s and competition’s rules on originality and the use of AI assistance. Do not submit work you did not create as your own.

Acceptable use

  • Don’t attempt to break, probe or overload the service.
  • Don’t upload malware, unlawful or abusive content.
  • Don’t share your account or resell access to the service.
  • Don’t use the service to build a competing product by scraping it.

Payments and refunds

Paid plans are processed by Stripe. Subscriptions renew until cancelled, and you can cancel anytime from your billing page; access continues until the end of the paid period. Prices shown at checkout apply, and taxes are added where required. If something went wrong, contact us within 14 days of a charge and we will work with you in good faith.

Disclaimers

The service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. AI feedback can be wrong or incomplete, so use your judgment and your advisor’s. To the fullest extent permitted by law, DecaLive is not liable for indirect or consequential damages, and our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.

Ending your account

You can delete your account at any time, which deletes your data. We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms. We may update these terms; if a change is material we will notify you before it takes effect.
