Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are an agreement between you and Marmentum LLC ("Chorus," "we," "us," or "our"), the company that operates Chorus: the web application at app.trychorus.ai, the site at trychorus.ai, our Slack integration, and related services (together, the "Service").

1. Acceptance

By creating an account, joining a workspace, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you are using the Service on behalf of a company, you represent that you have authority to bind that company, and "you" refers to the company. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Eligibility

The Service is a business tool intended for companies and their employees. You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use it. The Service is not offered for personal, family, or household use.

3. Beta service

Chorus is currently in private beta. During the beta:

• The Service is provided free of charge. We expect to introduce paid plans later; if we do, we will give you reasonable advance notice and the choice to subscribe or stop using the Service before you are charged.
• Features may change, break, or be removed without notice as we build.
• We may suspend, limit, or modify the Service, or your access to it, at any time.
• The Service is provided "AS IS," and the disclaimers in Section 14 apply with particular force during the beta.

4. Accounts and workspaces

Each company gets one workspace, tied to its email domain. Workspaces have two roles:

• Admins manage the workspace: they control seats, approve or deny requests from people at their domain to join, configure Slack and scheduling settings, and are responsible for how the workspace is used.
• Posters receive adapted drafts, edit and approve them, and decide what to publish.

You can sign in with Google SSO, an email and password, or an email magic link. You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and for all activity under your account. Provide accurate information, and tell us promptly at robert@marmentum.com if you suspect unauthorized use.

5. Your content

You retain all right, title, and interest in the content you and your team provide to the Service, including posts, drafts, chat prompts, edits, and voice profile inputs such as writing samples, tone keywords, and style notes ("Customer Content"). You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, transmit, and display Customer Content solely to operate, provide, secure, and support the Service. We do not sell Customer Content, and we do not use it to train foundation models.

You are responsible for Customer Content: for having the rights to submit it, and for making sure each team member whose voice Chorus adapts has agreed to take part.

6. AI-generated content

Chorus uses artificial intelligence models to adapt a source post into a distinct draft for each poster. AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete, or unintentionally similar to content generated for others. You must review every draft before publishing it.

Chorus never publishes anything for you. The Service has no LinkedIn integration and does not post to LinkedIn (or anywhere else) on your behalf; every poster publishes their approved draft from their own LinkedIn account. You are solely responsible for everything you publish, including its accuracy and legality and your compliance with LinkedIn's User Agreement and policies.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service to create or distribute content that is unlawful, deceptive, defamatory, harassing, or that infringes anyone's rights.
• Send spam or unsolicited messages, or use the Service to manipulate engagement on any platform.
• Impersonate any person. The voice-adaptation feature exists so willing team members can share their company's posts in their own voice; it may not be used to write as someone without their knowledge and consent.
• Reverse engineer, decompile, scrape, or probe the Service, or interfere with its operation or security.
• Resell, sublicense, or provide the Service to third parties, or use it to build a competing product.
• Circumvent usage limits or access controls.

8. Third-party services

The Service works alongside third-party products, including Slack (for draft delivery), Google (for sign-in), and LinkedIn (where your team publishes). Your use of those products is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party products, and their availability or behavior can change or be withdrawn at any time. Connecting Slack authorizes Chorus to send direct messages to your team members inside your Slack workspace.

9. Feedback

If you send us ideas, suggestions, or other feedback about the Service, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use it for any purpose, without obligation to you.

10. Intellectual property

We own the Service, including its software, design, and branding, and all associated intellectual property rights. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service during your beta access or subscription. No rights are granted except as expressly stated in these Terms.

11. Confidentiality

Each party may receive non-public information from the other that is marked confidential or that a reasonable person would understand to be confidential. Each party will use the other's confidential information only to perform under these Terms, protect it with at least reasonable care, and not disclose it except to employees and contractors who need it and are bound by comparable obligations. These obligations do not apply to information that is or becomes public through no fault of the recipient, was already known, is independently developed, or must be disclosed by law (with notice to the other party where legally permitted).

12. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains what data we collect and how we handle it. It is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

13. Termination

Either party may terminate at any time. You can stop using the Service and ask us to close your account or workspace by emailing robert@marmentum.com; admins can also remove individual seats. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if the law requires it, or if we discontinue the beta, in which case we will give reasonable notice where practicable.

On termination, your right to use the Service ends. For 30 days after termination you may request an export of your Customer Content. After that window we delete it as described in our Privacy Policy, subject to legal retention obligations and rolling backup deletion. Sections 9 through 11 and 14 through 19 survive termination, along with your ownership of Customer Content.

14. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT AI-GENERATED OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE OR FIT FOR ANY PURPOSE.

15. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR DATA, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR, IF YOU HAVE PAID US NOTHING (INCLUDING DURING THE FREE BETA), USD $100.

16. Indemnification

You will defend and indemnify us against third-party claims, and the resulting damages and reasonable costs (including attorneys' fees), arising from Customer Content, your use of the Service in breach of these Terms, or content you publish to LinkedIn or elsewhere. We will defend and indemnify you against third-party claims that the Service itself (excluding Customer Content and output based on your inputs) infringes their intellectual property rights. The indemnified party must give prompt notice and reasonable cooperation, and the indemnifying party controls the defense.

17. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If a change is material, we will notify you by email or in the product at least 14 days before it takes effect. Continued use after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service before the change takes effect.

18. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Before filing a claim, each party agrees to contact the other and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California, and both parties consent to personal jurisdiction and venue there.

19. Miscellaneous

• Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. We may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
• Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between us about the Service and supersede any prior agreements on that subject.
• Severability. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remain in effect.
• Waiver. Failing to enforce a provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.
• Force majeure. Neither party is liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond its reasonable control.
• Export compliance. You may not use the Service in violation of U.S. export laws or sanctions, and you represent that you are not on any U.S. government restricted-party list.
