Hank gives fishing advice based on conditions and general bass fishing knowledge. Use it as a guide, not a guarantee. Follow your local fishing regulations. We earn commissions on some product links. That's the gist — full details below.
These terms cover two products: Nako.ai (this website) and Hank's Log (our iOS app).
By using Nako.ai or Hank's Log, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use them.
Nako.ai provides AI-generated bass fishing advice through Hank, alongside content about lakes, techniques, and gear. Hank draws on public data (USGS, weather APIs, fisheries research) and a curated knowledge base. Hank's Log is a private catch journal that imports your fishing photos, clusters them into trips, and enriches each catch with local weather, water, and solar/lunar data.
Hank's responses are informational. Fishing outcomes depend on many factors beyond any advice we provide — skill, weather changes, fish behavior, water conditions, and luck. We make no guarantee you will catch fish using Hank's suggestions, nor that the weather and water data shown in Hank's Log will be accurate at the time you fish — public data sources have delays, gaps, and occasional errors.
Free trial. Hank's Log offers a 14-day free trial of its full feature set when you start a paid subscription. You will not be charged until the trial ends.
Subscription tiers.
Prices may change for new subscribers; existing active subscribers keep their locked price through the renewal cycle. Taxes may apply depending on your region. Prices in non-USD regions follow the current App Store equivalent.
Automatic renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends. Your Apple ID is charged at the listed price (or equivalent in your region) upon renewal.
How to cancel. You can cancel anytime in Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions on your iPhone, or at apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions. Cancellation stops the next renewal; you keep access through the end of the current paid period.
Refunds. All payments are handled by Apple. Refund requests go through Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com. We don't have the ability to issue App Store refunds directly.
What the subscription unlocks. Unlimited catches, full AI coaching via Hank, advanced conditions analytics, iCloud sync, and future Pro features. The free tier remains fully usable for a limited number of catches so you can try the full local-first flow before paying.
Catches you log in Hank's Log — photos, notes, measurements, locations — are yours. We do not claim ownership or license over them, and we do not upload them to our servers. If iCloud sync is enabled, your data lives in your personal iCloud account under your control. You can export or delete your data at any time within the app.
Fishing regulations — size limits, bag limits, seasonal closures, special waterbody rules, licensing — vary by state, county, and individual lake, and change regularly. You are solely responsible for knowing and following all applicable regulations. Always verify current rules with your state fish and wildlife agency before fishing. Hank may mention regulations as reminders, but never relies on as a definitive legal source.
Fishing involves real risk — weather, water, boats, hooks, wildlife. You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of anyone with you. If Hank mentions weather or water safety concerns, treat it as a general reminder. Always check real-time conditions before going out.
When Hank recommends a product and you buy it through a link, we may earn a commission. Recommendations are based on what fits the conditions, not on commission rate. We also run nakoshop.com, where some of our own products are sold. Where relevant, that relationship is disclosed.
If you choose to save your preferences with a phone number, you're responsible for keeping that number accurate. We may delete inactive records or limit access if we suspect abuse. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle your data.
You agree not to:
Nako.ai's content — page text, structure, Hank's persona, our compiled knowledge base, logos — is owned by Nako and protected by copyright. You may share individual pages with a link or short quote, but may not republish substantial portions without permission.
Nako.ai uses third-party services (Google Gemini, Supabase, Vercel, USGS, weather APIs) and may link to external sites (product retailers, state agencies, fishing resources). We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of third-party sites.
Nako.ai and Hank's Log are provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We don't guarantee the service will be available, error-free, or accurate at all times. AI-generated content and third-party data (weather, water-gauge readings, lake names) may contain mistakes — treat them accordingly.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Nako and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the website or the app, including but not limited to missed fish, wasted trips, lost catch records, or decisions made based on Hank's advice or the conditions shown in Hank's Log.
For Hank's Log on iOS, Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies: apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula. Apple is not a party to these terms and is not responsible for the app or any claims related to it.
We may update these terms. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent update. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
These terms are governed by the laws of the United States. Any disputes will be resolved in U.S. courts with appropriate jurisdiction.
