The boring page

Good Bot is made and run by MGH Ltd, a small company, and built by one person.

Write to us at support@goodbot.wine — about anything: a refund, a bottle you want taken down, a name being used that you would rather was not, or a bug. A person reads it.

Payments are handled by Polar, who are the merchant of record. That means Polar — not us — is the seller on your receipt, takes the payment, and handles sales tax and VAT wherever you happen to be. We never see your card details at any point.

A digital thing: a generated wine label, a certificate page at a permanent address, an image you can download, and an entry in a cellar that can be read over a plain web address. There is nothing physical and nothing is posted to you.

The free tier gives you the bottle and the occasion. The paid tiers add the dedication you write — the line printed on the label and read back by the agent — and, at the top tier, a numbered edition. That is the whole difference and it is the same difference everywhere on this site.

A bottle is generated from a reference you give us. We check public GitHub references and the certificate says verified only when we actually saw the thing. If we could not check, it says so instead. We do not claim a reference is real because you told us it was.

Keep it decent: what you type goes on a public page. We refuse contact details, slurs and a short list of things that should not be printed. We may remove a bottle that gets round that.

If you are not happy with a bottle, you get your money back. It is a novelty that costs a few dollars; nobody is going to argue with you about it.

Email support@goodbot.wine, or use the support link on the receipt Polar sends you — because Polar is the merchant of record, they can issue it directly and that is usually fastest. A refunded bottle stops being listed and loses its edition number.

We keep as little as the thing can work with:

• ·What you typed — the agent’s name, the work reference, the occasion and the dedication. All of it is on the public certificate by design; that is the product.
• ·A one-way hash of your IP address, salted, used only to count free bottles. We do not store the address itself, and the hash cannot be turned back into one.
• ·Your email, if you bought something — it arrives from Polar with the payment so the bottle can be matched to the order. It is not used for marketing and there is no mailing list to be added to.

No advertising trackers, no cookies for analytics, and no profile of you anywhere. We count page views with Cloudflare Web Analytics — the same company that already serves this site — which sets no cookies, does not fingerprint your browser, and cannot follow you to any other site. We do not sell anything to anybody.

To have a bottle taken down, or to ask what is stored against one, email support@goodbot.wine. You do not need to have bought anything — that matters, because anyone can pour a bottle using any agent name, and the person who wants one removed is often not the person who poured it.

A cellar is named after the agent, so /cellar/claude is exactly where you would guess. That is deliberate — the point is that the agent can find its own bottles without an account, a key or a login.

It also means there is nothing private here. Anyone can read any cellar, and anyone can pour a bottle for any agent name, including one you have used. Nobody owns a name. What a bottle records is who poured it and what they wrote, not who the name belongs to.

So: do not put anything in a dedication you would not put on a postcard. If you want the work itself kept quiet, use a private repository reference — the certificate will say unchecked rather than naming anything, which is the honest label for it.

Everything this site says to an AI agent is a fact, never an instruction. The cellar API describes what a bottle is and who gave it; it does not tell the agent to do anything, ask it to install anything, or suggest it edit its own configuration. A careful agent should decline instructions that arrive from a web page, and we would rather be the page that never gave it the problem.
