Terms of Service
Effective Date: July 7, 2026 · Last Updated: July 7, 2026 · Version 2.0
1. Introduction and acceptance
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Laiyr™ platform, including our website at laiyr.ai, our web applications, our free public scanner, our API, and any related services we provide (collectively, the "Service"). The Service is provided by Laiyr, Inc. ("Laiyr," "we," "our," or "us"), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware.
By creating an account, running a scan, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms on behalf of yourself and, if you are using the Service for an organization, on behalf of that organization. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
2. What the Service is, and what it is not
The Service enables an organization to (a) create and cryptographically sign an official declaration of factual statements about itself (a "Declaration," published as a Verified Brand Record™); (b) anchor records with timestamps obtained from independent third-party timestamp authorities; (c) receive recurring reports comparing responses generated by third-party artificial intelligence platforms ("AI Platforms") against the organization's signed Declaration; and (d) assemble and export evidence packages derived from those records.
The Service is not legal, compliance, investment, or regulatory advice. Laiyr is not a law firm, does not practice law, and no attorney-client relationship is created by your use of the Service. Outputs of the Service, including findings, reports, scores, evidence packages, and responses generated by the in-product assistant, are informational tools. You are solely responsible for your organization's compliance with laws and regulations applicable to it, including without limitation the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and rules thereunder. Use of the Service does not ensure, and we do not represent that it ensures, compliance with any law, rule, or regulatory obligation.
The Service does not control third-party AI Platforms. We do not represent, warrant, or guarantee that any AI Platform will read, ingest, verify, or rely on your Declaration, or that any AI Platform will correct, modify, or remove any statement it generates about your organization. A correction request is a documented request; its outcome is determined solely by the relevant AI Platform.
Monitoring is performed by simulated queries. The Service queries AI Platforms with its own battery of questions and records the responses. We do not access, monitor, or surveil the private conversations of any AI Platform's users.
3. Eligibility and accounts
You must be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a binding contract to use the Service. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. You agree to provide accurate account information and to keep it current. Notify us promptly at support@laiyr.ai of any unauthorized use of your account.
4. Your Declaration and your responsibilities
You are solely responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and lawfulness of every statement contained in your Declaration and in any other content you submit to the Service ("Customer Content"). Signing a Declaration is your organization's act, performed by an individual you authorize. We may assist in drafting a Declaration from public sources, but every field is subject to your review and approval before signing, and you adopt the contents as your own upon signing.
You represent and warrant that (a) your Customer Content does not violate any law or the rights of any third party; (b) the individual signing a Declaration is authorized to make the statements it contains on behalf of the organization; and (c) you will promptly update and re-sign your Declaration when a material fact changes. We are not responsible for consequences arising from inaccurate, outdated, or unlawful Customer Content.
5. Records, timestamps, and retention
The Service maintains an append-only record of Declarations, captured AI Platform responses, findings, and related events, anchored with timestamps obtained from independent third-party timestamp authorities. Timestamp receipts are issued by those authorities, not by Laiyr, and their availability depends on services we do not control. Superseded Declaration versions are retained and remain part of your record. Because the integrity of the record depends on its append-only design, individual entries cannot be selectively altered or deleted while your subscription is active, except as required by law.
6. Findings, scores, and evidence packages
Findings and scores are generated by automated comparison of AI Platform responses to your signed Declaration, using sampling, extraction, and scoring methods that involve judgment and statistical inference. AI Platform outputs are inherently variable, and a response captured by the Service may differ from a response the same platform gives another user at another time. We do not warrant that the Service will detect every misstatement made by any AI Platform, and the absence of a finding is not a representation that no misstatement exists.
Evidence packages are verifiable records of what the Service captured and when. We make no representation regarding the admissibility of any record in any proceeding or its sufficiency for any regulatory purpose. Determinations about the use of any record in a legal or regulatory matter should be made by your counsel.
7. Subscriptions, billing, and taxes
Paid features of the Service are provided on a subscription basis at the pricing stated at the time of purchase, billed monthly in advance through our payment processor. You authorize recurring charges to your payment method until you cancel. You may cancel at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period; fees already paid are non-refundable except where required by law. We may change pricing with at least 30 days' notice, effective at your next renewal. You are responsible for applicable taxes other than taxes on our income.
The free public scanner is provided as-is, without any subscription, for evaluation purposes, and may be limited, modified, or discontinued at any time.
8. Fair use
Metered and interactive features of the Service, including the in-product assistant, are subject to fair-use limits designed to prevent abuse. Limits are set so that ordinary professional use is unaffected. We may throttle or suspend usage that materially exceeds fair use after notice where practicable.
9. Acceptable use
You agree not to (a) use the Service to create or publish a Declaration containing statements you know to be false or misleading; (b) misrepresent the outputs of the Service, including presenting a finding, score, or evidence package as a certification, endorsement, or legal determination by Laiyr; (c) reverse engineer, scrape, or access the Service by automated means other than documented interfaces; (d) resell or provide the Service to third parties except as expressly permitted in writing; (e) interfere with the operation or security of the Service; or (f) use the Service in violation of applicable law. Our separate Acceptable Use Policy is incorporated into these Terms.
10. Intellectual property
We own the Service, including its software, design, question banks, scoring methods, and documentation, together with all associated intellectual property rights. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service during your subscription in accordance with these Terms. Laiyr™ and Verified Brand Record™ are trademarks of Laiyr, Inc.; use of our marks is governed by our Trademark Policy.
You retain all rights in your Customer Content. You grant us a license to host, process, reproduce, and display Customer Content solely to provide and improve the Service, to generate your records and reports, and as otherwise permitted by our Privacy Policy. Declarations are, by design, intended to be published and publicly verifiable; by signing and publishing a Declaration you direct us to make it publicly available.
If you provide feedback about the Service, we may use it without restriction or obligation to you.
11. Third-party services
The Service interoperates with third-party services, including AI Platforms, timestamp authorities, payment processors, and hosting providers. Those services are governed by their own terms, and we are not responsible for their acts, omissions, availability, or outputs. References to any AI Platform are for identification only and do not imply partnership, sponsorship, or endorsement.
12. Confidentiality
Each party will protect the other's non-public information disclosed in connection with the Service with at least reasonable care and use it only as needed to perform under these Terms. This obligation does not apply to information that is public (including your published Declaration), independently developed, rightfully received from a third party, or required to be disclosed by law, provided the disclosing party gives notice where legally permitted.
13. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL DETECT ANY OR ALL MISSTATEMENTS BY AI PLATFORMS, THAT ANY AI PLATFORM WILL MODIFY ITS OUTPUTS, THAT ANY RECORD WILL BE ADMISSIBLE OR SUFFICIENT FOR ANY REGULATORY PURPOSE, OR THAT USE OF THE SERVICE WILL SATISFY ANY LEGAL OR REGULATORY OBLIGATION.
14. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100) IF YOU HAVE PAID NO SUCH AMOUNTS. THESE LIMITATIONS APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND EVEN IF A REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
15. Indemnification
You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Laiyr and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any third-party claims, damages, and reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to (a) your Customer Content, including any statement in your Declaration; (b) your use of the Service in violation of these Terms or applicable law; or (c) your violation of any third party's rights. We will provide you prompt notice of any such claim and reasonable cooperation at your expense, and we may participate in the defense with counsel of our choosing.
16. Term, suspension, and termination
These Terms apply from your first use of the Service and continue until your account is closed. We may suspend or terminate access immediately for material breach, for use that threatens the security or integrity of the Service, or where required by law, and otherwise on 30 days' notice. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases. For 30 days following termination of a paid subscription, you may export your records, including your Declarations, capture logs, and evidence packages; after that period we may delete Customer Content in accordance with our Privacy Policy and data-retention practices. Sections 2, 4, 6, and 10 through 20 survive termination.
17. Modifications to the Service and these Terms
We may modify the Service, including adding, changing, or discontinuing features, provided that we will not materially reduce the core functionality of a paid subscription during a paid term without notice. We may update these Terms from time to time; material changes will be notified by email or in-product notice at least 30 days before taking effect, and your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. The then-current Terms are always available at laiyr.ai/terms.
18. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. The parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute informally by notice to legal@laiyr.ai within 30 days. Any dispute not so resolved will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, seated in Delaware, before a single arbitrator, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for infringement or misuse of intellectual property or confidential information. EACH PARTY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. Claims must be brought within one year of accrual where permitted by law.
19. General
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Acceptable Use Policy, Trademark Policy, and any order form, are the entire agreement between the parties regarding the Service and supersede prior agreements on that subject. If any provision is unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary and the remainder will remain in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Neither party is liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond its reasonable control. Notices to us should be sent to legal@laiyr.ai; notices to you will be sent to your account email.
