Yolo-auto updated their terms of service recently, and here's what you should know
Before signing up for yolo-auto.com, read this. Their marketing and their Terms of Service don't match — and this isn't just their website.
1. They say "zero limits" and "no token anxiety." Their ToS says otherwise.
Their website brags about "zero request caps" and mocks other providers for rate limits that "throttle you." Their own Reddit post goes further, claiming "no misleading limited plans."
But their ToS has a formula that throttles you too. Use more tokens, and your priority weight goes up — meaning you get pushed back in line when things are busy. Their own example: burn 10 million tokens in 30 minutes, and your priority weight jumps to 201x. That's a rate limit. They just don't call it one.
Their own formula means you don't need to reach their 10M-token example to feel it — weight climbs from your very first 50,000 tokens, so a sustained task would already be heavily weighted long before hitting that number.
All of this is supposedly tied to 'congestion,' but there's no public status page, uptime history, or load data anywhere on their site. So there's no way to actually verify when congestion happens, how often, or whether it even fluctuates at all. For all any user can tell, the weighting could be active constantly — there's simply no data to check it against either way. The mechanism is real (it's in their own ToS), but whether it only kicks in occasionally or all the time is something only they know.
2. They say "0 prompts stored" and "don't share your data with anyone." Their ToS says otherwise.
Their website says nothing is stored, nothing is used for training. Their Reddit post is even more direct, saying they don't sell or share data with anyone.
Their ToS tells a different story: requests can get sent to other companies (third-party model providers), and what those companies do with your data is "outside our control." So the "we don't share with anyone" claim doesn't hold up against their own terms.
A lot of people are deflecting by saying, 'It’s only a $6 service, what do you expect?'
But that misses the entire point of a security and compliance audit. If a service is willing to completely distort the truth, hide aggressive throttling algorithms, and 'vibe code' their legal contracts just to secure a $6 subscription, how on earth can you trust them with your data integrity or your infrastructure when stakes are actually high?
Trust isn't scaled by price. If they will lie to you for pocket change, they will lie to you about anything.
