Terms of Service
Last updated: March 16, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By creating an account or using CheckrideReady ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the Service. These terms apply to all users including students, instructors, and visitors.
2. Description of Service
CheckrideReady is an AI-powered oral exam preparation platform for student pilots. The Service provides practice sessions simulating FAA oral examinations, progress tracking across ACS task areas, and an instructor portal for CFIs. CheckrideReady is a study tool only and is not affiliated with the FAA, AOPA, or any flight school or testing authority.
3. Not a Substitute for Professional Instruction
CheckrideReady is designed to supplement — not replace — instruction from a certified flight instructor (CFI) or designated pilot examiner (DPE). The AI examiner is a practice tool. Nothing on this platform constitutes official flight training, aeronautical instruction, or certification. Always consult a qualified CFI for official guidance on flight operations and regulations.
4. Account Registration
You must create an account to use the Service. You agree to:
- Provide accurate information when registering

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.
