What PitSlate is

PitSlate, by Apps 4 That LLC (Indiana, USA), is a planning, logging, and coaching tool for outdoor cooking. It back-times cook schedules from your target eat time, records the cook notes and temperatures you enter, and answers technique questions from a graded, cited knowledge base.

Food safety โ€” read this one

PitSlate is informational and is not a food-safety authority. Its schedules are estimates, not guarantees of doneness or safety; large cuts of meat finish on their own timeline. You are responsible for safe food handling: follow USDA FSIS guidance, verify internal temperatures with a calibrated food thermometer (poultry 165°F; ground meats 160°F; whole-muscle beef/pork/lamb 145°F plus a 3-minute rest), respect the 40–140°F danger-zone rules, and when in doubt, throw it out. If anything in this app appears to conflict with USDA guidance, follow USDA. Doneness targets shown alongside safety floors are practitioner convention, clearly labeled, and are not safety standards.

You operate the fire

Smokers, grills, charcoal, and open flame are inherently hazardous. PitSlate provides scheduling and technique information only; it does not monitor your equipment and cannot see your pit. Follow your equipment manufacturer's instructions and local fire regulations. Apps 4 That LLC is not responsible for property damage, injury, or ruined briskets.

The coach

Ember (on-device and the optional AI Pitmaster) answers from a graded knowledge base and cites its sources. It refuses medical, dietary, allergy, and nutrition questions by design โ€” consult a physician or registered dietitian for those. AI-generated responses can be imperfect; the knowledge cards, USDA sources, and your own thermometer outrank any conversational reply.

Your data, your device

Cook data lives in your browser's local storage (see Privacy). You can export your Pit Book at any time; keeping backups is your responsibility. Clearing browser data erases the app's memory.

Purchases

Paid plans (Pit Book, AI Pitmaster) are billed through Stripe under the prices shown at purchase. Subscriptions can be canceled anytime and remain active through the paid period. During the public beta, checkout is disabled and beta access is clearly labeled as not a purchase.

Fair use

Don't abuse the service: no attempting to break the API guards, no automated scraping of the coach endpoint, no reselling access. The AI Pitmaster is rate-limited and capped; heavy automated use gets throttled.

Disclaimers & liability

The service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apps 4 That LLC's total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid for it in the twelve months before the claim.

Changes

These terms will be finalized (with attorney review) before public launch; material changes will be posted here. Questions: apps4that.com.
