Terms of service for the kolm CLI, the kolm cloud, and every .kolm artifact you compile through us. Read once. Apply forever.
The short version. Your data is yours. Your artifacts are yours. Your frontier API key is yours. We provide a service that compiles those into a sub-3GB file. We can disable accounts that abuse the service. Disputes are arbitrated. See sections below for the long form.
"kolm", "we", and "us" mean Kolmogorov, Inc., a Delaware corporation. "You" means the human or organization with an account at kolm.ai. The "Service" means the CLI, the cloud compile pipeline, the public registry, the SDK at /sdk.js, and any documentation at kolm.ai.
You agree to provide a valid email and to keep your kolm API key secret. You are responsible for activity under your account. Tell us within 24 hours if a key is compromised: dev@kolm.ai.
Your training data (examples, evals), your inference inputs, and your frontier API key remain yours. You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use them only for the purpose of running the compile job you requested. We do not retain them after the job completes.
The recipe contributions automatically extracted during compile (deterministic draft tokens) are licensed to the public registry under MIT, unless you compile with --no-contribute.
Every .kolm file you compile is owned by you. You can copy it, run it, ship it inside your product, or sell it. You can delete it at will. We claim no ownership over your artifacts.
Artifacts include third-party model weights subject to their own licenses (Llama, Qwen, Mistral, etc.). Your obligations under those licenses pass through. We list applicable licenses in manifest.json inside every artifact.
The compile pipeline calls the frontier model you bring. You pay for those calls directly to the frontier provider. We do not mark up, rebill, or front the frontier API spend.
You may not use the Service to:
We may disable accounts that violate these. We will tell you when we do, with reason.
Pricing on /pricing is the current price. We will email at least 30 days before any price increase to a tier you are on. Prepaid Pro and Enterprise terms govern what you have already paid for.
You can cancel any tier any time via kolm account cancel or dev@kolm.ai. Billing stops at the end of the paid period; the account remains read-only until you delete it.
The current tier-level uptime targets and credits are documented at /status. The free tier is offered as-is with no SLA. Pro tier targets 99.9% monthly. Enterprise contracts override.
The Service is provided "as is". We do not warrant that the model, the LoRA, the recipe pack, or the recall index will produce any particular accuracy, latency, or coverage on your task. The K-score is a measurement, not a guarantee.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability is capped at the greater of USD 100 or fees you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for lost profits, lost data you did not back up, or consequential damages.
You will indemnify us for third-party claims arising from your training data, your artifacts, or your downstream use of either. We will indemnify you for third-party claims that the Service itself infringes a US patent or copyright, subject to the cap in section 10.
Disputes will be resolved by binding arbitration in San Francisco under JAMS streamlined rules, in English, governed by Delaware law, except either side may bring a small-claims action and either side may seek injunctive relief in court for IP infringement.
We will email every active account at least 14 days before any material change to these terms. Past versions are archived at github.com/sneaky-hippo/kolmogorov-stack.
