Legal
Effective April 1, 2026. This agreement governs your use of the Simulacrum software, templates, and related materials.
Version date: 2026-04-01. This agreement supplements the Terms of Service for commercial matters. In case of conflict on intellectual property or software-specific rights, this agreement controls for the software and templates.
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement and payment of applicable fees, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as expressly permitted below), revocable license during the term to:
Tiers marketed as Solo, Startup, and Agency include activation limits that generally correspond to one, five, and ten concurrent activations respectively, unless a different limit is stated at purchase. We may adjust enforcement mechanics (for example grace periods for offline use) as described in product documentation.
Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement or mandatory law, you must not:
Generated Output is yours to modify, deploy, and commercialize, subject to licenses governing dependencies and third-party components included in your stack. You may not redistribute our proprietary template source code (including unmodified or lightly modified copies of our internal scaffolding library) as a standalone product, boilerplate package, or marketplace listing intended to substitute for purchasing Simulacrum. You may share Generated Output with your clients and contractors as needed to deliver work product, provided they are not granted rights to use the Software beyond what they lawfully obtain from us.
Paid tiers include updates to the Software and shipped templates we make generally available to that tier during the life of the product line, subject to fair use and abuse policies we may publish (for example reasonable download frequency and rate limits on automated scaffolding endpoints). We may deprecate or replace features; substantially new product lines or enterprise offerings may be sold separately. We have no obligation to maintain compatibility with every third-party framework version indefinitely.
Support is provided on a reasonable-efforts basis through channels we designate (for example email associated with your receipt), unless you purchase a separate support plan.
We and our licensors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Software and our proprietary documentation. Except for the express license in Section 2, no rights are granted to you. You retain title to your Generated Output, excluding our pre-existing intellectual property embedded in templates that is not intended to be assigned (such as trade dress or trademarks), which remain ours.
The Software and Generated Output may include third-party open-source software. Such components are licensed under their respective licenses, which may grant you additional rights and impose additional obligations. You are responsible for compliance with those licenses in your distributions.
The Software may communicate with servers we or our licensors operate to validate license keys, enforce activation limits, deliver updates, or collect minimal diagnostic information as described in our Privacy Policy. You may not block or falsify such communications to evade licensing, except where prohibited by law.
THE SOFTWARE AND GENERATED OUTPUT ARE NOT DESIGNED, CERTIFIED, OR INTENDED FOR USE IN HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENTS REQUIRING FAIL-SAFE PERFORMANCE, INCLUDING OPERATION OF NUCLEAR FACILITIES, AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION OR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, LIFE SUPPORT MACHINES, WEAPONS SYSTEMS, OR OTHER APPLICATIONS WHERE FAILURE COULD LEAD TO DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR SUCH USE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED AS IS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, THAT GENERATED OUTPUT WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR SECURE, OR THAT OPERATION WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR GENERATED OUTPUT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD 100) IF NO FEES WERE PAID.
You will indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees) arising from your Generated Output, your combination of the Software with other products, or your breach of this Agreement, except to the extent caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct.
This Agreement begins when you lawfully obtain the Software and continues until terminated. We may suspend or terminate the license if you materially breach this Agreement or the Terms of Service, if required by a payment processor or court order, or to prevent fraud or abuse. Upon termination, you must cease use of the Software and destroy all copies in your control. Sections intended to survive (including ownership, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, and governing law) survive termination.
Generated Output you lawfully created before termination may continue to be used subject to third-party licenses, provided such use does not require ongoing access to the Software in violation of this Agreement.
On reasonable notice, you will allow us (or an independent auditor bound by confidentiality) to verify compliance with seat limits and redistribution restrictions, no more than once every twelve months unless we reasonably suspect material breach. Audits will be conducted in a manner that minimizes disruption to your business.
You will comply with all applicable export and sanctions laws. You may not export or re-export the Software into any embargoed country or to anyone on a restricted party list.
The Software is commercial computer software developed entirely at private expense. If acquired by or on behalf of a U.S. government agency, the Software is provided with only those rights in this Agreement and FAR/DFARS provisions for commercial software as applicable.
Subject to mandatory consumer protection laws, this Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to mandatory law, the state and federal courts in Delaware have exclusive jurisdiction.
We may update this Agreement for new purchases or new versions of the Software. Continued use after notice of material changes may constitute acceptance where permitted by law. Prior paid licenses remain governed by the version in effect at purchase unless we notify you otherwise as required by law.
This Agreement, together with the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, constitutes the entire agreement regarding the Software. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign this Agreement without our consent; we may assign it in connection with a merger or sale of assets.
