Your first verdict
Run one decision through solvemax with no account required.
Go to the homepage, describe the decision, answer the 2–3 clarifying questions (or let the engine pick its recommended answers for you), and the run starts.
What "anonymous" means technically
The first time you run a verdict without signing in, solvemax sets an smx_anon cookie (a
random id, HttpOnly, one year) and derives a fingerprint from your IP address plus that cookie id
(sha256(ip|cookieId|smx)). That fingerprint is locked to exactly one free run — the lock is a
database uniqueness constraint, so a second attempt from the same browser is rejected, not
silently allowed. Unused free-run locks are cleared after 30 days, mainly so people on a shared
IP (an office, a campus) who never actually got to use theirs aren't blocked forever.
Limits on the free run
- Your decision text is capped at 6,000 characters. Signing in raises that to 20,000 — see Accounts.
- Anonymous and free-tier runs are capped at 6 runs per hour per network (IP address) — this guards against abuse, not against you personally.
- If a run fails for any reason (timeout, provider outage, unusable output), the free-run lock is restored automatically — see Stopping a run.
What happens after it finishes
You land on your verdict slip immediately. It is not saved to an account yet — it lives at a
shareable URL (/slip/<slug>) that only you have, until you either:
- Sign in, which automatically claims every anonymous run you completed on this browser onto your account — see Claiming runs, or
- Copy the link / email it to yourself, which works with or without an account.
After the free run
Once your one free verdict is used, the next run costs $4 (one-time) or you can subscribe — see Plans & tiers.
