Foundry Terms

1. Scope and relationship to other terms

These terms supplement the artifocial Website Terms for the Foundry page, readiness scan, request forms, and any no-charge product preview or walkthrough we agree to provide. The Website Terms also apply. A later signed software license, services agreement, statement of work, or order form controls if it conflicts with these pre-launch terms.

2. Eligibility and business authority

You must be at least 18. If you act for a company or other organization, you represent that you are authorized to provide its information and discuss its needs. Do not submit customer personal data, confidential production information, credentials, or information you are not authorized to share.

3. Current Foundry model

Foundry is currently described as customer-hosted software plus optional guided services. The customer receives a release artifact and deploys it on infrastructure the customer controls. The customer selects and pays for its own model provider or local model and supplies its own credentials. artifocial does not currently promise cloud hosting, managed operations, or resold model inference.

Product descriptions, demonstrations, release notes, and roadmap statements are informational and may change before a signed order. A request does not guarantee acceptance, a delivery date, a particular feature, support level, or price.

4. Paid solo onboarding: price, delivery, refunds, and cancellation

This section applies when you buy Foundry solo onboarding. It does not apply to enterprise onboarding, which is quoted separately and contracted in writing.

Price. $3,690 United States dollars, charged once at checkout. This is not a subscription: there is no recurring charge, no renewal, and nothing to cancel later to avoid a further payment. We may change this price for future purchases; the price shown on the Foundry page and at checkout when you pay is the price that applies to you, and a later change does not affect a purchase already completed. Payment is processed by Stripe under its own terms; we never receive or store your full card details. Any taxes, bank fees, or currency-conversion charges applied by your card issuer are yours.

What you receive. A Foundry release artifact you deploy on infrastructure you control, the setup documentation shipped with it, and guided onboarding by email to get that artifact running. You supply your own model provider or local model and your own credentials, and you pay that provider directly. We do not host Foundry for you, operate it for you, or resell model inference.

When you receive it. We contact you at the email on your receipt within two business days of payment to begin onboarding. If we have not contacted you within five business days, you may cancel under this section for a full refund.

Refunds. You may request a full refund within 14 days of payment, for any reason, provided we have not yet delivered the release artifact to you. Email info@artifocial.com from the address on your receipt; we will confirm and issue the refund to the original payment method within 10 business days. After the artifact has been delivered, a refund is discretionary — write to us and describe the problem, because we would rather resolve it than keep a payment from a customer we did not help. If we cannot deliver what this section promises, you get a full refund whether or not 14 days have passed.

Cancellation. You may cancel before the artifact is delivered by emailing the address above; that is a full refund under the paragraph above. We may cancel and refund in full if we cannot serve your environment, if the acceptable-use terms in section 8 are breached, or if the purchase appears fraudulent.

Your other rights. These terms are interim and are being reviewed by qualified counsel. Nothing here limits a refund, chargeback, or cancellation right you have under the consumer law that applies to you; where that law gives you more than this section does, that law governs.

5. Readiness scan and walkthroughs

The readiness scan is a self-assessment calculated from your answers and disclosed assumptions. It is not an audit, security assessment, professional opinion, or guarantee of cost savings, readiness, or results. A walkthrough may use sample, demonstration, or pre-release software. You are responsible for independently evaluating whether the information fits your organization.

6. Data and support boundary

The current deployed product sends no automatic product telemetry to artifocial. Optional support is configuration-only: artifocial will not access customer production data, customer personal data, production systems, or retain raw diagnostics under this pre-launch scope. Do not provide those materials through a website form or ordinary email. Any exception requires a separate written scope and updated privacy, confidentiality, and security terms before access.

7. Customer-controlled third parties

Model providers, hosting, operating systems, container registries, and other services the customer selects are third-party services governed by their own terms, privacy policies, security controls, and fees. The customer is responsible for its accounts, credentials, configurations, licenses, and lawful use of those services.

8. Acceptable use

You may not use a Foundry preview, artifact, or walkthrough to:

• violate law, privacy, confidentiality, intellectual-property, or contractual rights;
• gain unauthorized access to systems, accounts, or data;
• develop or distribute malware, evade security controls, or facilitate abuse;
• submit regulated, sensitive, or production data outside an approved written scope; or
• misrepresent a preview as production-certified, fully managed, or approved by artifocial for a use we did not review.

9. Ownership and feedback

artifocial and its licensors retain ownership of Foundry software, documentation, branding, and demonstrations. No software license is granted by a webpage or walkthrough except the limited permission needed to view that material. Any deliverable license, customer-data rights, configuration ownership, output rights, open-source notices, and feedback rights must be stated in the separate agreement that accompanies delivery.

10. Privacy

The Foundry Privacy Notice describes request, scan, and product-boundary information. The artifocial Privacy Noticedescribes shared website practices.

11. Disclaimers and liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, pre-launch pages, scans, walkthroughs, and preview materials are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted operation, security, or error-free results. Do not rely on a preview for production, safety-critical, legal, financial, employment, or security decisions.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, artifocial is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or lost profits, data, goodwill, or business opportunity arising from the pre-launch surfaces. Nothing excludes liability or rights that cannot legally be excluded. A signed paid agreement must state any negotiated warranties, remedies, liability cap, governing law, and venue.

This section does not cut down section 4. The delivery, refund, and cancellation commitments we make for paid solo onboarding are stated in section 4 and control for that purchase.

12. Changes, provider information, and contact

We may change or discontinue access and will update the date above when these terms change.

Who you are contracting with.“artifocial” is the trading name of the individual operator of this site. A registered company has not yet been formed, so there is no separate legal entity standing behind these terms today, and your counterparty is that operator. We will publish the registered legal name, formation jurisdiction, mailing address, governing law, and venue on this page as soon as formation completes, and we will update the date above when we do. If you want those details in writing before you buy, email us and we will send them or tell you plainly that they do not exist yet. Contact info@artifocial.com with questions.
