SurgiSnap – End User License Agreement

SurgiSnap LLC

End User License Agreement

Effective Date: April 10, 2026  ·  Last Updated: April 10, 2026

Please read this End User License Agreement ("Agreement") carefully before downloading, installing, or using SurgiSnap ("the App"). By tapping "I Agree," downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, do not download, install, or use the App.

1. Parties

This Agreement is between you ("User," "you," or "your") and SurgiSnap LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company ("SurgiSnap," "we," "us," or "our"). SurgiSnap LLC is the licensor of the App. For the avoidance of doubt, Apple Inc. and Google LLC are not parties to this Agreement and have no obligation to furnish maintenance or support services for the App.

2. License Grant

Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, SurgiSnap grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on devices that you own or control, solely for your personal, professional record-keeping purposes as a surgical trainee or practicing surgeon.

This license does not permit you to:

  • Copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the App or any portion of it
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the App
  • Sublicense, sell, rent, lease, lend, or distribute the App to any third party
  • Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or proprietary notices in the App
  • Use the App for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law or regulation
  • Use the App to develop a competing product or service
  • Circumvent, disable, or otherwise interfere with security-related features of the App, including biometric authentication, encryption, or subscription entitlement controls
  • Use automated tools, scripts, bots, or scrapers to access or interact with the App

3. Not a Medical Device — For Record-Keeping Only

This is the most important section of this Agreement. Please read it carefully.

SurgiSnap is a surgical case logging and record-keeping tool. It is designed to help surgical professionals maintain a personal career log of operative cases for training documentation, board preparation, ACGME case log requirements, and hospital credentialing.

SurgiSnap is not a medical device, a clinical decision support system, a diagnostic tool, or a therapeutic tool of any kind.

Specifically:

  • No clinical decisions should be made based on any output of this App. CPT codes, diagnoses, procedure classifications, ACGME credit attributions, and any other structured data generated or suggested by the App's AI extraction pipeline are produced for logging and administrative convenience only. They do not constitute medical advice, billing guidance, or coding recommendations and must not be used to direct patient care or clinical decision-making.
  • The App's AI extraction may contain errors. The underlying AI model (currently GPT-4o, subject to change) can misread, misclassify, omit, or hallucinate information. AI-suggested CPT codes may be incorrect, incomplete, or inappropriate for the actual procedure performed. You are solely and exclusively responsible for reviewing and verifying all AI-extracted data before relying on it, saving it to your case log, or submitting it to any institution, board, regulatory body, or payer.
  • SurgiSnap has not been reviewed, cleared, or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or any other regulatory authority as a medical device or software as a medical device (SaMD).
  • SurgiSnap does not provide CPT coding advice for billing purposes. CPT codes suggested by the AI extraction are informational references only. If you use SurgiSnap data for billing, you are solely responsible for verifying code accuracy against current AMA CPT guidelines and payer requirements.

4. Not a Primary Medical Record System

SurgiSnap is not an Electronic Health Record (EHR), not a Hospital Information System (HIS), and not a legal medical record system of any kind.

  • Case data logged in SurgiSnap does not constitute an official medical record and must not be treated as one.
  • Your institution's designated EHR system is the authoritative legal medical record for any patient encounter.
  • You must not use SurgiSnap as the sole or primary documentation for any clinical encounter, surgical procedure, or patient interaction.
  • SurgiSnap is a personal professional tool. It is intended to supplement, not replace, institutional documentation systems.

5. Patient Data and Your Responsibilities

SurgiSnap is designed so that patient-identifying information need not be entered into the App to use its core features. The AI extraction pipeline processes operative note text to extract procedure details, CPT codes, and clinical fields, not patient identifiers.

However, SurgiSnap provides optional fields for patient MRN and patient initials to allow you to cross-reference your case log with institutional records. If you choose to enter patient-identifying information:

  • That data is stored exclusively on your device in the AES-256 encrypted vault and is never transmitted to any server, API, or third party.
  • You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the App complies with your institution's policies regarding the storage of patient information on personal devices.
  • You are solely responsible for the physical security of your device. If your device is lost, stolen, or accessed by unauthorized persons, SurgiSnap's encryption and biometric protections provide a strong defense, but no security measure is absolute.

SurgiSnap strongly recommends:

  • Cropping or obscuring direct patient identifiers (names, SSNs, dates of birth) before photographing operative notes
  • Entering MRNs and initials only after the AI extraction step, not as part of the photographed document
  • Using the Emergency Erase feature before disposing of, selling, or transferring your device

6. HIPAA and Institutional Compliance

SurgiSnap operates under HIPAA Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with its service providers:

  • OpenAI: BAA in place. Zero Data Retention provisioned. API inputs and outputs are not stored or used for model training.
  • Google Cloud Platform (Firebase): BAA in place. Covers Firebase Authentication, Cloud Functions, Crashlytics, and App Check.

However:

  • SurgiSnap does not make your use of this App automatically compliant with HIPAA, your institution's policies, or any other regulatory requirement. The existence of BAAs between SurgiSnap and its service providers addresses SurgiSnap's obligations as a business associate, but does not relieve you of your own obligations as a covered individual or workforce member of a covered entity.
  • You are solely responsible for determining whether your institution permits the use of third-party applications to process operative note content, and for complying with any applicable policies, procedures, or approvals required by your employer, residency or fellowship program, hospital system, or credentialing body.
  • You assume full responsibility for any decision to photograph, import, or transmit operative note content through this App.
  • SurgiSnap is not a covered entity under HIPAA. SurgiSnap is a personal professional tool used by individual clinicians for their own career documentation.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

12. Intellectual Property

12.1 Ownership

The App — including its source code, object code, architecture, design, user interface, AI prompts, CPT mapping logic, ACGME credit classification engines, specialty-specific extraction schemas, documentation, and all related materials — is the exclusive property of SurgiSnap LLC and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws.

13.2 Apple-Specific Terms

If you downloaded the App from the Apple App Store, the following additional terms apply:

  • This Agreement is between you and SurgiSnap LLC, not Apple. Apple has no obligation to furnish maintenance or support services for the App.

15. Service Availability

SurgiSnap is designed to function primarily as an on-device application. Core features (case viewing, editing, ACGME tracking, and export) function without an internet connection. AI-powered operative note extraction requires an active internet connection.

SurgiSnap shall not be liable for any loss or inconvenience caused by service interruptions.
