Account Responsibilities

3.1 Account Creation

  • One account represents one team or organization

  • Multiple users within the same account share access to the same Business Hub and business data — such as facts, goals, planner items, documents, and connected business integrations. Certain data remains private to each individual user, including their own AI conversation history and any integrations they've personally connected; see our Privacy Policy for details

  • You are responsible for ensuring that all users on your account comply with these Terms

3.2 Account Security

  • You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials

  • You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account

  • You must notify us immediately at support@aventide.ai if you suspect unauthorized access

3.3 Account Accuracy

  • You are responsible for the accuracy of the business information you enter into the Business Hub

  • AI strategy advice is based on the information you provide; inaccurate inputs may result in less relevant or misleading outputs

Acceptable Use

You agree NOT to use the Service to:

  • Violate any applicable law or regulation

  • Infringe the intellectual property rights of others

  • Upload or transmit malicious code, viruses, or harmful content

  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to other users' accounts or data

  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the Service

  • Use the Service for competitive intelligence gathering against other specific businesses

  • Resell, redistribute, or sublicense access to the Service without written permission

  • Use automated bots, scrapers, or similar tools to access the Service outside of normal use

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms without prior notice in cases of severe or repeated violation.

Credits and Billing

5.1 Credits System

The Service uses a credits system for AI recipe executions:

  • Credits are granted with your subscription (monthly or annual allocation)

  • Credits are consumed when you run AI recipes. The number of credits consumed per recipe varies by complexity; current credit costs are shown in your account settings and at the time of subscription

  • Credits do not carry over between billing periods unless otherwise specified in your plan

  • Unused subscription credits expire at the end of each billing period

  • Separately, one-time credit packs purchased in addition to your subscription do not expire

5.2 Subscription Billing

  • Billing is managed through Outseta, our payment and subscription management provider

  • Subscription fees are charged in advance on a monthly or annual basis

  • Prices may change with 30 days written notice; continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of new pricing

  • Refunds are evaluated on a case-by-case basis at our discretion

5.3 Free Trials and Promotions

AUTO-RENEWAL NOTICE: If you sign up for a free trial or a paid subscription, your subscription will automatically renew at the end of the trial or billing period. You will be charged the then-current subscription fee for your selected plan at the time of renewal. To avoid being charged, you must cancel your subscription before the trial or billing period ends by visiting the billing portal in your account settings. By creating an account and initiating a free trial or paid subscription, you affirmatively acknowledge and agree to these automatic renewal terms.

Free trial periods, if offered, are subject to specific terms communicated at sign-up. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue trial offers at any time. At the end of a free trial, your account will convert to a paid subscription unless you cancel before the trial period ends.

5.4 Credit Refunds

If a recipe execution fails due to a platform error (not user error or invalid input), credits are automatically refunded to your balance.

5.5 Storage Limits

Each plan includes a data storage allowance covering documents, brand assets, marketing media, and other business files you store in the Service: Free 1 GB, Starter 5 GB, Pro 10 GB. You can view your current storage usage at any time in the Business Hub Files tab. If you exceed your plan's storage allowance, you may be unable to upload additional files until you free up space or upgrade your plan.

Intellectual Property

6.1 Your Data

You own your business data. All facts, goals, plans, and documents you enter or generate remain your property.

You grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to process your data solely to provide and improve the Service, including aggregated and anonymized use as described in our Privacy Policy.

You can export your data at any time. You may request complete deletion of your data upon account cancellation.
If you import data from a third-party platform using an authorized connector, you represent that you are the account owner or are otherwise authorized to export and transfer that data.

6.2 AI-Generated Content

You own the documents and outputs generated by AI recipes using your business context.

AI-generated content is provided as a starting point. You are responsible for reviewing, validating, and adapting it for your specific situation.

We do not guarantee that AI-generated content is original, accurate, or free from third-party intellectual property claims.
6.2.1 Templates
Prebuilt, AI-generated, and user-uploaded templates are provided as general starting points only and do not constitute legal advice. No attorney-client relationship is created by using any template on the platform. Templates are not tailored to any specific jurisdiction. Full details are set out in our Legal Templates Disclaimer.

6.3 Platform Intellectual Property

Second Spring Design Inc. owns the Aventide platform, including all code, design, architecture, algorithms, and platform intellectual property.

The "Second Spring Design," "Second Spring," and "Aventide" names, logos, and trademarks are the exclusive property of Second Spring Design Inc.

6.4 Third-Party Services and Content

Content generated by our AI model provider (Anthropic) is subject to the terms of that provider.

Third-party integrations (Google, Stripe, QuickBooks, Zoom, Canva, Framer, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, TikTok, LinkedIn, Mailchimp, Slack, and others) are subject to their own terms of service. Publishing integrations (Instagram, Facebook, Threads, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube) only publish content you have explicitly created and approved — nothing is posted automatically without your review.

  • AI recommendations do NOT constitute professional business, legal, financial, or tax advice

  • We make no warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, or fitness for any particular purpose of AI-generated content

  • Always review AI outputs critically and consult qualified professionals (accountants, lawyers, financial advisors) before making significant business decisions

  • Past patterns in our Knowledge Graph do not guarantee future results for your business

  • AI models can produce incorrect, biased, or outdated information; your judgment as the business owner is essential

Service Availability and Warranty Disclaimer

  • We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access to the Service

  • Scheduled maintenance will be communicated in advance when possible

  • We are not liable for losses caused by service interruptions, whether planned or unplanned

  • Third-party integrations (Google, Stripe, QuickBooks, Zoom, Canva, Framer, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, TikTok, LinkedIn, Slack, Anthropic, and others) are subject to their own availability; we cannot guarantee their uptime

Dispute Resolution

12.1 Informal Resolution

Before filing a formal dispute, you agree to first contact us at support@aventide.ai and attempt to resolve the matter informally within 30 days.

12.2 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

12.3 Binding Arbitration

Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally under Section 12.1 shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as amended from time to time. The arbitration shall take place in the State of Delaware or, at the election of either party, remotely by telephone or videoconference. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding on both parties, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. This arbitration clause does not prevent either party from seeking emergency injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction where necessary to prevent irreparable harm pending the outcome of arbitration.

12.4 Jurisdiction

Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally and is not subject to arbitration under Section 12.3, or any proceeding to enforce or challenge an arbitration award, shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

12.5 Class Action Waiver

You agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action.

General Provisions

Entire Agreement: These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Second Spring Design Inc. regarding your use of the Service.

Severability: If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

Waiver: Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.

Assignment: You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights freely.

Force Majeure: We shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing our obligations where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you via email or in-app notice at least 30 days before material changes take effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you must stop using the Service and cancel your account.
