Terms of Service

Effective date: 2026-08-09

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Teralabs LLC, a Delaware limited liability company with its mailing address at 1111B S Governors Ave STE 52993, Dover, DE 19904, USA ("Nodeboard", "we", "us"). They govern your use of nodeboard.ai and the services we provide through it (the "Service").

By creating an account or using the Service, you accept these Terms, the Acceptable Use Policy and the Privacy Policy, which are part of this agreement.

Read Section 3 carefully. It describes the single most important thing about how Nodeboard works: you bring your own AI provider accounts, and you pay those providers directly.

1. What Nodeboard is

Nodeboard is a visual canvas for building and running AI generation workflows. You assemble nodes on a board, connect them, and run them. Some nodes call third-party AI providers to generate images, video, audio or text.

Nodeboard is the canvas, the orchestration and the collaboration layer. It is not an AI model provider and does not resell AI generation capacity.

2. Your account

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. The Service is intended for professional and business use; if you are using it as an individual, you may do so, but Section 12 applies to you.

You are responsible for the accuracy of your account details, for keeping your credentials secure, and for everything that happens under your account — including actions taken by members of your team, by API clients you authorise, and by agents you connect through our REST, MCP or CLI surfaces.

You may sign in through a third-party identity provider, such as Google. That sign-in is subject to that provider's own terms, and we do not control its availability. If it becomes unavailable, you remain responsible for maintaining access to your account by other means.

3. Bring your own keys, and who pays for what

Generating with Nodeboard requires your own account with a third-party AI provider — for example Replicate, fal, Google, OpenAI, xAI or Runway — and your own API key for that provider, which you add in Settings → API Keys.

This has four consequences, and they are the core of this agreement:

1. Your contract for generation is with the provider, not with us. Their terms, their content policies, their model availability and their prices govern what happens when you run a node.
2. You pay the provider directly. Those charges are billed to your provider account. They are separate from anything you may ever pay us. We do not sell or resell generation credits, and we do not bill you for generation.
3. We transmit, we do not generate. When you run a node, we send your prompt, your media and your settings to the provider you selected, using your key, on your instruction.
4. Your spend is yours to control. This includes runs you start indirectly — batch nodes, scheduled or automated workflows, agents connected over MCP, the CLI, and the Lula assistant. Set the limits you need inside your provider account. We are not responsible for provider charges you incur, however they were triggered.

We are not responsible for a provider's downtime, for a provider refusing or filtering your request, for a provider changing or withdrawing a model, or for any cost, delay or loss arising from any of that.

3.1 Your API keys

Your provider API keys are encrypted at rest. We use them only to execute requests you initiate. You can view which keys are configured, replace them, or delete them at any time in Settings → API Keys. Deleting a key stops us from being able to run generations that need it.

3.2 Features that run on our own provider accounts

Some features do not use your key, and it is important that you know which:

• the Lula assistant, including the board agent that reads your board and proposes or performs changes;
• prompt translation;
• automatic image description.

These run on AI provider accounts belonging to Nodeboard. When you use them, the relevant content — board context, prompts, and images you have selected — is sent to a third-party AI provider under our account rather than yours. The Privacy Policy and the Sub-processors page identify those providers.

We may limit, meter or withdraw these features at any time, since we bear their cost.

3.3 Training

We do not train AI models on your content. We do not use your boards, prompts, uploads or generated outputs to train our own models, and we do not supply them to anyone else for that purpose.

Third-party AI providers have their own policies. When you generate with your own key, what the provider may do with your content is governed by your agreement with that provider and by the settings of your account with them. Check them if this matters to you.

4. Your content

You keep ownership of everything you upload or create on the Service ("Your Content").

You grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, transmit, display and process Your Content strictly for the purpose of operating and providing the Service to you — including transmitting it to the AI provider you selected, storing it so your boards load, and showing it to collaborators you have invited. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for backups that expire on their normal cycle.

You represent that you have the rights necessary for Your Content and for what you ask the Service to do with it. That includes photographs, footage and likenesses of real people, trademarks, and any third-party material you upload as a reference.

5. Generated output

Output produced through the Service is provided as is.

It may be inaccurate, misleading, offensive, or similar to output produced for other users from similar prompts. It may not be suitable for any particular purpose. You are responsible for reviewing output before you use it, and for any use you make of it.

Ownership. We claim no ownership of output generated through your use of the Service, and to the extent we hold any rights in it, we assign them to you. Be aware that this is the limit of what we can give you: whether output is protected at all, and who owns it, is determined by your agreement with the AI provider and by the copyright law that applies to you. In several jurisdictions, purely AI-generated material is not protected by copyright. We make no promise about the legal status of output.

6. Acceptable use

Your use of the Service is subject to the Acceptable Use Policy, which forms part of these Terms. We may update it as new abuse patterns appear; the current version always applies.

7. Availability

The Service is offered in an early-access stage. There is no service level agreement, no uptime commitment, and no guarantee that any feature will continue to exist. We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the Service.

We aim to preserve your work, and we run backups, but you should keep your own copies of anything you cannot afford to lose.

8. Suspension and termination

You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time by writing to us — see Section 14.

We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy, if required by law, or if your use threatens the security or stability of the Service. Where it is reasonably possible, we will tell you first and give you a chance to fix the problem.

On termination, Sections 4 (as to licences already exercised), 5, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 survive.

9. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. When we make a material change, we will publish the updated version with a new effective date and ask you to accept it the next time you sign in. If you do not accept, you may stop using the Service and close your account.

Changes to the Acceptable Use Policy and to the Sub-processors list do not require a new acceptance.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind. We disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

We do not warrant the output of any AI provider, nor that the Service will meet your requirements.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, nor for lost profits, lost revenue, lost business, lost data, or the cost of substitute services.
• We are not liable for charges billed to you by any AI provider, including charges resulting from automated, batch or agent-initiated runs under your account.
• Our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amounts you paid us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) US$100.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited — including liability for fraud, for wilful misconduct or gross negligence, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

12. Consumers

If you are a consumer resident in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you keep the mandatory rights and protections granted to you by the law of your country of residence, and by the mandatory consumer-protection provisions applicable to you. Nothing in these Terms limits those rights, and Section 13 does not deprive you of the protection of the courts of your place of residence where the law gives you that protection.

13. Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you and we consent to their jurisdiction.

There is no mandatory arbitration under these Terms.

Section 12 prevails over this Section where it applies to you.

15. General

These Terms, together with the Acceptable Use Policy and the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service. If any provision is held unenforceable, the rest remains in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign this agreement without our consent; we may assign it in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
