Legal
Website terms
These terms cover the website. Client work is governed by a signed SOW and MSA, not by this page.
Last updated: November 6, 2026
1. The site is information, not advice
The content on this site is general information about production AI engineering. It is not legal, financial, security, or professional advice for your specific situation. Reading it does not create a client relationship.
2. No client relationship without a signed agreement
A client relationship begins only when both parties sign a statement of work (SOW) and, where applicable, a master services agreement (MSA). Email, a call, a proposal, or a payment link does not create one by itself.
3. Fees and payment
Published fees are starting points for the scope described on the services page. The binding fee, deliverables, timeline, and payment schedule are in the signed SOW. Fees are in USD. The standard terms are:
- Diagnostic and sprint: 50% upfront, 50% on delivery.
- Build: 30% upfront, 30% at midpoint, 40% on acceptance.
- Retainer and fractional: monthly in advance. Net 15.
- Late payment: 1.5% per month or the maximum allowed by law.
4. No free calls or free proposals
I do not provide free discovery calls, free proposals, or free proofs of concept. The paid $1,500 strategy session is the entry point; the $12,500 diagnostic is the next step. This is a business policy, not a legal obligation on anyone else.
5. Intellectual property
The site content, design, and code are owned by Synthworx DNS Ventures LLC unless otherwise stated. You may read, quote, and link to the site with attribution. You may not republish it wholesale or use it to train a model without written permission.
For client work, ownership of deliverables is set in the SOW. The default is that you own the custom code and documentation produced for you, and I retain ownership of pre-existing tools, libraries, and know-how, with a licence for you to use them in the delivered system.
6. Third-party links and products
The site links to GitHub, Pikki, and other third-party sites. I do not control those sites and am not responsible for their content, availability, or privacy practices.
7. No warranty on site content
The site is provided “as is.” I try to keep it accurate, but I do not warrant that it is complete, current, or error-free. Metrics and case studies describe past work; they are not a prediction or guarantee of results for another system.
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Synthworx DNS Ventures LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site. Nothing on this site limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
9. Governing law
These website terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute about the site is subject to the courts of Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Client contracts may specify a different governing law and dispute process in the SOW.
