1. Acceptance, Use of Service & Account Responsibilities
By accessing or using Crucible, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you are using Crucible on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these terms.
- Service Description: Crucible provides AI-mediated advisory sessions and generates Decision Briefs and Meeting Minutes. These outputs are guidance and do not constitute legal, financial, or investment advice. You remain solely responsible for all decisions you act upon.
- Account Responsibilities: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must provide accurate information and ensure uploaded documents are authorized for sharing.
- Prohibited Uses: You agree not to (a) use the service for any illegal or unauthorized purpose; (b) attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or extract models or training data; (c) use outputs to train competing AI models; (d) resell or redistribute access without our express written consent; (e) abuse, interfere with, or disrupt the service; (f) upload unauthorized, illegal, or harmful content.
- Acceptable Use: You must comply with our Acceptable Use Policy, available at /legal/acceptable-use. Violation of these terms may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account without refund.
2. AI-Generated Outputs & No Reliance
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER REGARDING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE:
- AI-Powered Service: Crucible provides outputs generated by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs). These AI systems, while sophisticated, have inherent limitations and may produce outputs that are inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or unsuitable for your specific circumstances.
- No Guarantee of Accuracy: THE COMPANY DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY, CURRENTNESS, OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF ANY AI-GENERATED OUTPUTS. AI outputs may contain errors, omissions, hallucinations (plausible-sounding but incorrect information), or outdated information.
- Customer Verification Required: You must independently verify all AI-generated outputs before making any business, legal, financial, professional, or personal decisions. You should not rely solely on AI outputs for any important decision without conducting your own due diligence and, where appropriate, consulting with qualified professionals.
- Not Professional Advice: The Services do not constitute and are not a substitute for professional advice from qualified lawyers, accountants, financial advisors, medical professionals, or other experts. The Company does not purport to provide any legal, taxation, accountancy, medical, or other professional advice through the Services.
- Assumption of Risk: You acknowledge and accept that you assume all risk associated with your use of AI-generated outputs. The Company shall not be liable for any decisions made, actions taken, or consequences arising from your reliance on AI-generated outputs.
- Third-Party AI Providers: AI outputs are generated using third-party AI model providers (including but not limited to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and DeepSeek). The Company does not control these providers and makes no warranties regarding their outputs, availability, or performance.
3. Intellectual Property Rights & User Content
Intellectual Property Ownership:
- Your Content: You retain all rights, title, and interest in the data, inputs, and documents you submit to Crucible ('User Content'). You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to process, store, and use your User Content solely to provide the service to you and as necessary to operate and improve Crucible.
- Our IP: RoundtableLabs owns all rights, title, and interest in the Crucible platform, including its software, algorithms, interfaces, trademarks, and the 'Crucible' brand. Nothing in these terms grants you any rights to our intellectual property except the limited right to use the service as described herein.
- AI-Generated Outputs: The AI-generated outputs (Decision Briefs and Minutes) are assigned to you upon generation, subject to your compliance with these terms. You may use these outputs for your internal business purposes, but you may not use them to train, fine-tune, or improve any other artificial intelligence models or competing services.
- Feedback: Any feedback, suggestions, or ideas you provide about Crucible may be used by us without obligation or compensation to you.
- Publicity Rights: By creating and publishing an agent on the Marketplace, you grant RoundtableLabs a perpetual, non-exclusive, worldwide license to use your name, likeness, agent persona, and associated content (including agent name, role, and summary) in marketing materials, case studies, promotional content, website features, and other business communications. You may opt out of such usage by contacting us at hello@roundtablelabs.ai. This license does not grant us ownership of your agent or your personal information.
