I have to disagree, it is definitely not legal in the US to use unauthorized access points to access authorized data. Thats like saying you're allowed to get into your apartment through breaking your neighbors door and climbing between the windows In the US this is pretty simply covered by Computer Misuse Act and Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, both federal laws Im not claiming you're liable, just surprised no lawyer p…

This analogy is completely off. A closer analogy is someone calls you on your phone letting you know they're here. You were expecting them, so you say "come on in." But, they were at the back door instead of the front door. I don't think anyone would consider that your friend did something illegal.

Yeah, the CFAA doesn't work by analogy unfortunately.

We are working on a way to auto-patch internal APIs that change by having another agent trigger the requests. Regarding the legality aspects — really appreciate you mentioning this — we’ve put a lot of thought into these issues, and it’s something we’re continually working on and refining. Ultimately, our goal is to allow each developer to make their own informed decision regarding the policies of the platforms that…

There is a carve out if the data is "publicly available": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HiQ_Labs_v._LinkedIn

If I open the Safeway app and it fetches what is available in a given store without any authentication and everyone sees the same data, that could possibly fall under that exemption.

If your landing page doesn't look like this, you've launched too late: https://integuru.ai

This is what happens when your daily grind is cutting through all kinds of atrocious and excessive "web design" in order to get at information.

If my browser is downloading some data, then what’s the difference if my AI agent is doing the same? I’ll even tell you it’s my browser. Who are you to say what qualifies as a browser?

We should definitely further clarify this! We built Integuru as an internal tool while building the products for Taiki. Then we realized that other developers may need the agent, too, so we decided to open-source Integuru. In terms of the current focus for our team, we are spending most of our time on Integuru because newly requested integrations take some of our resources to build, and we want to continue improving the agent. I think the correct way to frame this is a market expansion, where we're expanding beyond the tax industry.
