You retain ownership of all code, data, and content you create using the Service ("Your Content"). By using the Service, you grant us a limited license to host, process, and transmit Your Content solely to operate and provide the Service to you.

We do not claim ownership over applications or code generated through the Service. You are solely responsible for ensuring Your Content does not infringe on third-party intellectual property rights.

6. AI-Generated Content

The Service uses artificial intelligence to assist with code generation and development tasks. You acknowledge that:

  • AI-generated outputs may contain errors, inaccuracies, or security vulnerabilities
  • You are solely responsible for reviewing, testing, and validating all AI-generated code before use
  • AI-generated content does not constitute professional advice of any kind
  • We make no guarantees regarding the correctness, completeness, or fitness of AI-generated outputs

7. Billing and Payments

Subscriptions

The Service operates on a subscription-based model with credit allocations. Subscription fees are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis, depending on the plan you select. All fees are stated in euros and are inclusive of applicable taxes unless otherwise noted.

Credits

Each subscription plan includes a monthly allocation of credits. Credits are consumed when you use the AI agent (build credits) or when your applications use platform resources such as database queries and file storage (usage credits). Credit costs vary based on the complexity and resources consumed.

Auto-Renewal

Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current rate unless you cancel before the renewal date.

No Refunds

All fees are non-refundable, except where required by applicable law. Unused credits do not roll over between billing periods and are forfeited upon expiration or cancellation of your subscription.

Changes to Pricing

We reserve the right to change our pricing at any time. Price changes for existing subscriptions will take effect at the start of the next billing period following notice to you.

8. Service Availability and Dependencies

The Service relies on third-party infrastructure providers and AI model providers. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We are not responsible for outages, degraded performance, or service interruptions caused by factors beyond our reasonable control, including third-party service failures, network issues, or force majeure events.

We reserve the right to perform scheduled maintenance and may temporarily suspend access to the Service with reasonable notice when practicable.

9. Data and Privacy

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your information. By using the Service, you consent to the data practices described therein.

You are responsible for any data you process through applications built on the Service. If your applications collect data from end users, you must provide appropriate privacy notices and obtain any necessary consents.
