Terms of Service
Last updated October 2026
1. Acceptance of These Terms
These Terms of Service govern your use of genaiprotos.com (the "Website") and any enquiry you submit through it. GenAI Protos is operated by The 7X Ventures LLC ("GenAI Protos", "we", "us" or "our").
By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you use the Website on behalf of an organization, you confirm that you have authority to accept these Terms for that organization. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.
Paid services are governed by a separate written agreement, such as a proposal, statement of work or master services agreement (an "Engagement Agreement"). Where an Engagement Agreement conflicts with these Terms, the Engagement Agreement applies.
2. Our Services

Service descriptions, examples, case studies and frequently asked questions on the Website are for general information only. They do not form an offer, quotation or commitment to deliver any particular result, timeline or price.
The scope, deliverables, evaluation criteria, milestones, price and handover for any engagement are confirmed only in an Engagement Agreement.
3. Use of the Website
You may use the Website to learn about our services and contact us. You agree not to:
- Use the Website for any unlawful, fraudulent or harmful purpose.
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Website, its servers or connected systems.
- Interfere with the Website's operation, including by introducing malware or overloading it.
- Scrape, copy or reuse Website content at scale without our written permission.
- Submit false, misleading or infringing information through any form.
Enquiries and the contact form
When you submit an enquiry, you agree to provide accurate details. Please do not share confidential, sensitive or personal data about others in the form. We use your details to respond to your enquiry as described in our Privacy Policy.
You can also email us at contact@genaiprotos.com. Submitting an enquiry does not create a client relationship or any obligation for either party.
4. Client Engagements
Scope and agreement
Each engagement begins with an agreed scope. The Engagement Agreement sets out the question to answer, deliverables, evaluation criteria, milestones, price and handover arrangements. Work starts only after both parties accept it.
Changes
Changes to scope, required skills, cost or delivery dates are discussed and agreed in writing before additional work proceeds.
Third-party and infrastructure costs
Unless the Engagement Agreement states otherwise, model usage, API fees, cloud resources, compute, hosting, hardware, platform subscriptions, licences and any on-site work are identified separately and are not included in our fees.
Your responsibilities
You are responsible for providing the inputs, data, system access and feedback agreed in scope, and for confirming that you have the right to share them with us. Delays in these inputs may affect milestones.
Payment
Fees, invoicing and payment terms are set out in the Engagement Agreement.
5. Intellectual Property and Confidentiality
Website content
All content on the Website, including text, graphics, logos, illustrations and design, belongs to GenAI Protos or its licensors. You may view and share pages for personal or internal business use. You may not copy, modify or republish it commercially without our written permission.
Deliverables
Ownership and licensing of deliverables, such as code, prototypes, configurations, datasets, model weights, adapters, reports and documentation, are defined in the Engagement Agreement.
Our pre-existing tools
GenAI Protos retains ownership of its in-house accelerators, frameworks, reusable components and know-how developed before or outside an engagement. Where these are used in a deliverable, your rights to use them are set out in the Engagement Agreement.
Your data
You retain ownership of the data, documents and materials you provide. We use them only to deliver the agreed engagement. Data access, handling requirements, storage location and the processing environment are agreed before we use your data.
Confidentiality
Each party will protect the other's confidential information shared during an engagement. Detailed confidentiality obligations are set out in the Engagement Agreement or a separate non-disclosure agreement.
6. AI-Specific Terms
Nature of AI outputs
AI systems can produce outputs that are inaccurate, incomplete, biased or inconsistent. You are responsible for reviewing AI outputs before relying on them, especially for decisions with legal, financial, medical or safety impact.
Prototypes, experiments and MVPs
Prototypes, proofs of concept and R&D experiments are built to answer a defined question. They are not production systems unless the Engagement Agreement says so. Findings apply to the test conditions, inputs and environment documented in our reports. An experiment may show that an approach is unsuitable; that is a valid outcome.
Fine-tuning and models
Fine-tuning and model evaluation results depend on the selected model, training data and evaluation set. Improvements measured against a baseline may not hold for different inputs. What we can transfer, such as model weights or adapters, depends on the platform and the applicable model licence.
Private and sovereign deployments
Private AI work tests a scoped prototype against an agreed data boundary. Our findings record what was verified and any exceptions. They do not replace your own security, governance, compliance or legal review before a wider deployment.
No guaranteed results
We do not guarantee any specific accuracy, performance, cost saving or business outcome unless expressly committed in the Engagement Agreement.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Our work may use third-party models, platforms, cloud providers and open-source software. Each is subject to its own licence and terms, which you may need to accept directly. We are not responsible for the availability, performance, pricing changes or terms of third-party services.
The Website may link to third-party websites. These links are for convenience only; we do not control or endorse their content.
References to technology partners or platforms describe the tools we work with. They do not imply that a partner endorses a specific engagement or outcome.
8. Disclaimers and Liability

To the extent permitted by law, we make no warranties about the Website's accuracy, completeness, availability or fitness for a particular purpose.
