Terms of Use

Welcome to Amica! Before you access our services, please read these Terms of Service.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of heyamica.com, Amica Pro, and other products and services that we may offer for individuals, along with any associated apps, software, and websites (together, our "Services"). These Terms are a contract between you and Amica, ("Amica") (and not our Providers), and they include our Acceptable Use Policy. By accessing our Services, you agree to these Terms.

Please read our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect and use personal information.

Please note: Our Commercial Terms of Service govern your use of any Amica API key, the Amica Console, or any other Amica offerings that reference the Commercial Terms of Service. For clarity, this does not include Amica.ai or Amica Pro use for individuals or entities.

1. Who we are.



Amica is an AI interaction and research company working to build reliable, interactive, and fun AI systems. We conduct research, develop and apply a variety of technology, and deploy the resulting systems via a set of partnerships and products.

2. Account creation and access.



Minimum age. You must be at least 18 years old or the minimum age required to consent to use the Services in your location, whichever is higher.

Your Amica Account.To access our Services, we may ask you to create an Account. You agree to provide correct, current, and complete Account information and allow us to use it to communicate with you about our Services. Our communications to you using your Account information will satisfy any requirements for legal notices.

You may not share your Account login information, Amica API key, or Account credentials with anyone else. You also may not make your Account available to anyone else. You are responsible for all activity occurring under your Account, and you agree to notify us immediately if you become aware of any unauthorized access to your Account by sending an email to support@heyamica.com.

You may close your Account at any time by contacting us at support@heyamica.com.

Business Domains. If you use an email address owned by your employer or another organization, your Account may be linked to the organization's Amica enterprise account, and the organization's administrator may be able to monitor and control the Account, including having access to Materials (defined below). We will provide notice to you before linking your Account to an organization's enterprise account. However, if the organization is responsible for notifying you or has already informed you that it may monitor and control your Account, we may not provide additional notice.

Evaluation and Additional Services. In some cases, we may permit you to evaluate our Services for a limited time or with limited functionality. Use of our Services for evaluation purposes are for your personal, non-commercial use only.

You may need to accept additional terms to use certain Services. These additional terms will supplement our Terms for those Services and may change your rights or obligations for those Services, including your obligations to pay fees.

3. Use of our Services.



You may access and use our Services only in compliance with our Terms, our Acceptable Use Policy, and any guidelines or supplemental terms we may post on the Services (the "Permitted Use").

You may not access or use, or help another person to access or use, our Services in the following ways:



In any manner that violates any applicable law or regulation—including, without limitation, any laws about exporting data or software to and from the United States or other countries.

To develop any products or services that compete with our Services, including to develop or train any artificial intelligence or machine learning algorithms or models.

To decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, or otherwise reduce our Services to human-readable form, except when these restrictions are prohibited by applicable law.

To crawl, scrape, or otherwise harvest data or information from our Services other than as permitted under these Terms.

To use our Services or Materials to obtain unauthorized access to any system or information, or to deceive any person.

To infringe, misappropriate, or violate intellectual property or other legal rights (including the rights of publicity or privacy).

Except when you are accessing our Services via an Amica API Key or where we otherwise explicitly permit it, to access the Services through automated or non-human means, whether through a bot, script, or otherwise.

To engage in any other conduct that restricts or inhibits any person from using or enjoying our Services, or that we reasonably believe exposes us—or any of our users, affiliates, or any other third party—to any liability, damages, or detriment of any type, including reputational harms.



You also must not abuse, harm, interfere with, or disrupt our Services, including, for example, introducing viruses or malware, spamming or DDoSing Services, or bypassing any of our systems or protective measures.

4. Prompts, Outputs, and Materials.



You may be allowed to submit text, documents, or other materials to our Services for processing (we call these "Prompts"). Our Services may generate responses based on your Prompts (we call these "Outputs"). Prompts and Outputs collectively are "Materials."

Rights to Materials. You are responsible for all Prompts you submit to our Services. By submitting Prompts to our Services, you represent and warrant that you have all rights, licenses, and permissions that are necessary for us to process the Prompts under our Terms. You also represent and warrant that your submitting Prompts to us will not violate our Terms, our Acceptable Use Policy, or any laws or regulations applicable to those Prompts. As between you and Amica, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you retain any right, title, and interest that you have in the Prompts you submit. Subject to your compliance with our Terms, we assign to you all of our right, title, and interest—if any—in Outputs.

Reliance on Outputs. Artificial intelligence and large language models are frontier technologies that are still improving in accuracy, reliability and safety. When you use our Services, you acknowledge and agree:



Outputs may not always be accurate and may contain material inaccuracies even if they appear accurate because of their level of detail or specificity.

You should not rely on any Outputs without independently confirming their accuracy.

The Services and any Outputs may not reflect correct, current, or complete information.

Outputs may contain content that is inconsistent with Amica's views.



Our use of Materials. We may use Materials to provide, maintain, and improve the Services and to develop other products and services. We will not train our models on any Materials that are not publicly available, except in two circumstances:



If you provide Feedback to us (through the Services or otherwise) regarding any Materials, we may use that Feedback in accordance with Section 5 (Feedback).



5. Feedback



We appreciate feedback, including ideas and suggestions for improvement or rating an Output in response to a Prompt ("Feedback"). If you rate an Output in response to a Prompt—for example, by using the thumbs up/thumbs down icon—we will store the related conversation as part of your Feedback. You have no obligation to give us Feedback, but if you do, you agree that we may use the Feedback however we choose without any obligation or other payment to you.

6. Subscriptions, fees and payment.



Fees and billing. You may be required to pay us fees to access or use our Services or certain features of our Services. You are responsible for paying any applicable fees listed for the Services.

If you purchase access to our Services or features of our Services, you must provide complete and accurate billing information ("Payment Method"). You agree that we may charge the Payment Method for any applicable fees listed on our Services and any applicable tax. If the fees for these Services or features are specified to be recurring or based on usage, you agree that we may charge these fees and applicable taxes to the Payment Method on a periodic basis.

If you purchase access to our Services through a distributor (e.g. an app store) ("App Distributor"), then you will make payment to the App Distributor, and the App Distributor's terms in relation to payment methods, billing, and refunds will apply instead of these Terms.

Except as expressly provided in these Terms or where required by law, all payments are non-refundable. Please check your order carefully before confirming it, and see below for additional information about recurring charges for our subscriptions.

Additional fees. We may increase fees for our Services. If we charge additional fees in connection with our Services, we will give you an opportunity to review and accept the additional fees before you are charged. Also, additional fees may apply for additional Services or features of the Services that we may make available. If you do not accept any such additional fees, we may discontinue your access to the Services or features.

You agree that we will not be held liable for any errors caused by third-party payment processors used to process fees paid by you to us.

Subscriptions. To access Amica Pro and other subscription services we may make available to individuals, you must sign up for a subscription with us (a "Subscription"), first by creating an Account, and then following the subscription procedure on our Services. When you sign up for a Subscription, you agree to these Terms.



Subscription content, features, and services. The content, features, and other services provided as part of your Subscription, and the duration of your Subscription, will be described in the order process. We may change the content, features, and other services from time to time, and we do not guarantee that any particular piece of content, feature, or other service will always be available through the Services.

Subscription term and automatic renewal. If you sign up for a paid Subscription, we or the App Distributor will automatically charge your Payment Method on each agreed-upon periodic renewal date until you cancel. If your Subscription has a minimum term (the "Initial Term"), we will let you know during the order process. The "Initial Term" for Amica Pro is one month. Your Subscription will last for the Initial Term and will automatically renew, and your Payment Method will be charged, at the end of the Initial Term for an additional term equal in duration to the Initial Term and will continue to renew and incur charges for additional terms equal in duration to the Initial Term (each such additional term, a "Renewal Term") until you cancel.

Subscription cancellation. If you subscribed via our website, you may cancel your Subscription for any reason by using a method we may provide to you through our products—for example, for Amica Pro, in your customer portal—or by notifying us at support@heyamica.com. If you subscribed via an app, you'll need to cancel via the App Distributor according to the App Distributor's terms. Learn more here. To avoid renewal and charges for the next Renewal Term, cancel your subscription at least 24 hours before the last day of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term. For example, if you subscribe on January 25th for a Subscription with a one-month Initial Term, you must cancel the Subscription per the instructions by February 23rd (24 hours before February 24th) to avoid renewal and charges for the next Renewal Term. In the event of a cancellation, your fees will not be refunded, but your access to the Services will continue through the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term for which you previously paid fees.

Subscription fees. You will pay the fees, either to us or to the App Distributor, for the Initial Term and each subsequent Renewal Term up front, at the start of that Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable. We have the right to make changes to the fees applicable to your Subscription from time to time, although we will not make any change to the fees applicable to your Subscription during the current Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable. If these changes result in an increase in the fees payable by you, we will inform you at least 30 days in advance of the change. You agree to the increase in fees payable by you unless you cancel the Subscription, as described in the paragraph (Subscription cancellation) immediately above, before the Renewal Term to which the increase in fees will apply.

We do not control or accept responsibility for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of any third-party content, services, and integrations, for which we make no representations or warranties.

WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE SEPARATE COUNSEL AND PARTICIPATE IN OR ASSUME THE EXCLUSIVE DEFENSE AND CONTROL OF ANY MATTER OTHERWISE SUBJECT TO INDEMNIFICATION BY YOU HEREUNDER, IN WHICH CASE YOU AGREE TO COOPERATE WITH US AND SUCH SEPARATE COUNSEL AS WE REASONABLY REQUEST.
