Termly vs Termerly. The differences that matter.

Both tools generate legal policies. The difference is how the free tier behaves once you start shipping more than one project.

Termly free tier

1 policy, walled features, upgrade prompts

Termly's free tier caps you at one policy with watermarked exports. Cookie scanner, consent banner, DSAR handling, and Pro templates sit behind a paid plan. Most operators upgrade after the second site.

Termerly free tier

Unlimited policies, every feature, no upgrades

Termerly's free tier is the full product: unlimited generators, hosted policies on a permanent URL, version history with side-by-side diff, and the consent banner SDK. No upgrade prompts, no feature gates.

Why teams switch

Five reasons operators replace Termly with Termerly

We hear the same migration story over and over: free tier hit a wall, paid tier felt overpriced for a single legal page. Termerly removes both problems.

AI reads your site, not a questionnaire

Termly walks you through a long form. Termerly's AI scans your site, detects the tools you actually use, and writes the policy from what it finds. No form to fill.

Unlimited free policies

Generate as many privacy, cookie, and terms policies as you have websites or apps. Termly caps the free tier at one document.

Built-in version history

Every publish creates an immutable snapshot. Compare any two versions side by side with red/green diff. Termly does not expose version history on its free or starter plan.

Hosted policies with a permanent URL

Termerly publishes your policy to a clean hosted URL (hub.termerly.com/your-project). Update the policy anytime, the URL never changes, footer links keep working.

4 jurisdictions covered

GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, and PIPL in a single document. Termly covers GDPR/CCPA on the free plan and gates LGPD/PIPL behind enterprise.

Consent banner SDK, free

Drop our SDK into your site and ship a branded consent banner that reads your published policy. No paid CMP needed.

FAQ

Termly alternative questions, answered

Everything you need to know before switching from Termly to Termerly.

  • Is Termerly really free, or is it freemium like Termly?
    Termerly's free tier is the full product. Unlimited privacy, cookie, and terms generators, hosted policies with a permanent URL, version history, consent banner SDK, and analytics: every feature, no usage caps, no credit card. No upgrade prompts inside the dashboard.
  • How does Termerly compare to Termly on cookie compliance?
    Both detect cookies and generate a cookie policy. Termerly's consent banner SDK is included free; Termly's Cookie Consent Manager sits on a paid plan once you exceed the free quota of monthly visits. For sites doing meaningful traffic, this is the bulk of Termly's invoice.
  • Can I import my existing Termly policy into Termerly?
    Yes. The Termerly editor accepts any HTML or Markdown content, so you can paste your existing Termly policy as the starting point and let the AI suggest updates. Your hosted URL on Termerly stays separate, so you keep the Termly version live until you finish reviewing.
  • Will my Termly policy URL still work after switching?
    Yes. Termly keeps your published URL active even on the free tier. Once you publish on Termerly, update your footer to point to the new Termerly URL, and you can take the Termly version offline whenever you're ready. There is no migration deadline.
  • Is an AI-generated policy from Termerly legally valid?
    Yes. The legal validity of a privacy policy comes from accurate disclosure, not authorship. Termerly's AI maps your specific data practices to the disclosure requirements of GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, and PIPL, producing a complete, publishable document.
  • What if I need a feature Termly has and Termerly doesn't?
    Termerly covers the core compliance stack: generators, hosting, version history, consent banner, jurisdictions. If you need DSAR handling or other enterprise features that Termly bundles, reach out through chat and we'll either point you to a free tool that pairs well or add it to the public roadmap.
