FAQs

What is TLDR?

How does the plugin work?

Your selected code is sent to our servers where it is processed by the AI system. The AI system then returns a plain english explanation of the code.

Are all explainations 100% correct?

The AI is still in beta and does not always understand the code correctly. This is improving over time and requests that don't work today might be in the future.

Where can I download the plugin?

What means gracefully rate limited?

The AI system has limits in request size and numbers of requests per month – we think you'll never hit these limits, but if you do, please contact us and we sort it out.

How do I cancel my subscription?
