End User Licence Agreement

This agreement is between you and Rida Mehboob Pasha Desai, trading as Onixphere (“we”, “us”), the maker of Onixphere (“the Software”). By installing or using the Software you agree to it. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.

1. What you are getting

The Software is licensed to you, not sold. We keep ownership of the Software and every copy of it. This agreement gives you only the rights it states.

2. The trial

You may use the Software free of charge for 14 days from the first time it runs on a device, to decide whether to buy it. The trial is for evaluation only, and you may not reset, extend or get around it. When it ends, the Software asks for a licence key before it can be used again; until then, it still lets you back up your data. Your own data stays on your device and remains yours to keep (see section 7).

3. Your licence

When you buy a licence, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to install and use the Software on up to 3 devices that you own or control, for your own personal or business purposes.

The licence is paid for once and does not expire: you may keep using the versions of the Software it covers for as long as you like. It covers every version released within one year of the date you bought it (see section 9).

You may move the licence to a different device by deactivating it on an old one, which you can do from inside the Software or from the customer portal.

4. What you may not do

You may not, and may not let anyone else:

copy, sell, rent, lend, sublicense or distribute the Software or a licence key, except as this agreement allows;
share a licence key with people outside it, or use one key on more devices than it covers;
reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Software, except where the law allows this despite this restriction;
remove, disable or get around the licence check, the trial limit, or any notice of ownership;
use the Software to break the law or anyone else’s rights.

5. Licence activation and checks

Activating a licence, and checking it again about once a week, needs an internet connection. The Software sends your licence key, an identifier for the device and the device’s name to Polar, our payment and licensing provider, to confirm the key is valid and how many devices it is active on. If the Software cannot reach Polar, it keeps working for 30 days before it asks to check again. The privacy policy explains exactly what is sent.

6. Third-party services and AI models

The Software connects to AI services that you choose and set up yourself, such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI or a local model run by Ollama. It can also open websites in its browser pane, and install software packages when you approve it.

Those services and packages belong to their own providers. You use them under their terms and their pricing, with your own account and API keys. We are not responsible for them, for what they charge you, or for whether they are available.

7. Your content and the AI’s output

Everything you create or store in the Software - chats, notes, Library documents, Memory, files - is yours. We do not claim any rights to it, and it stays on your device unless you send it somewhere.

AI models make mistakes. Their answers can be wrong, incomplete or out of date, and you should check anything that matters before you rely on it. The Software is not a source of professional advice, such as medical, legal or financial advice.

CoAgent, the Software’s agent mode, can read, create, change and delete files in folders you give it access to, run commands on your computer, and use the browser pane. Changes, commands and browser actions it proposes are shown to you to approve. You are responsible for what you approve, and for keeping backups of anything you cannot afford to lose.

8. Open-source components

The Software includes open-source components, such as Electron, Chromium, Python, Node.js, llama.cpp, BusyBox and PDF.js, and an open embedding model it runs on your computer. Each is licensed under its own terms, which are included with the Software. Nothing in this agreement limits your rights under those licences.

9. Updates

Your licence includes every update released within one year of the date you bought it. The Software may check for updates and download them in the background, and an update is installed only once you agree to restart into it. Updates are covered by this agreement unless they come with different terms.

When that year ends, the versions you already have keep working, for good. Versions released after it are not covered by your licence: the Software stops offering them, and one installed by hand will not unlock with your key.

10. Payment and refunds

Purchases are handled by Polar, which acts as the merchant of record and reseller of the Software. Its terms of sale apply to the purchase itself, including taxes and payment. You may ask for a refund within 14 days of buying, for any reason. When a refund is given, the licence key is turned off, and the Software asks for a licence key again at its next check. The refund policy explains how to ask.

11. Ending this agreement

You may end this agreement at any time by uninstalling the Software. It ends automatically if you break it, in which case you must stop using the Software and we may turn off your licence key. Sections 7 and 12 to 15 continue to apply after it ends.

12. No warranty

The Software is provided “as is” and “as available”, without any warranty, express or implied, including warranties that it is fit for a particular purpose, free of errors, or will run without interruption, to the fullest extent the law allows.

13. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, including lost data, lost profits or the cost of replacement goods, arising from your use of the Software or your inability to use it. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for your licence.

14. Your rights as a consumer

Some countries do not allow certain warranties to be excluded or liability to be limited. If you live in one of them, those parts of sections 12 and 13 apply only as far as your law allows, and nothing in this agreement takes away rights you have as a consumer that cannot be waived.

15. Governing law

This agreement is governed by the laws of England and Wales, without regard to their rules on conflicts of law. Any dispute will be heard by the courts of England and Wales, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring it there.

16. Changes to this agreement

We may update this agreement for later versions of the Software. The version that came with your copy, or that you accepted when you updated, is the one that applies to it.
