Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Mattheus, you agree to these Terms and the incorporated policies. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

Mattheus provides a customer-owned multi-asset research and workflow runtime for research, monitoring, simulation, paper trading, composition, previews, and approval-first preparation. Hyperliquid, Uniswap, and Aave are proposed beta venues; Alpaca is outside beta. Public execution is disabled while the release verdict is NO_GO. Any staging, testnet, or canary action remains explicitly allowlisted and does not represent public availability. Other incomplete or partner integrations are unavailable unless separately certified, approved, and enabled.

3. Eligibility

You must have legal capacity to enter these Terms, satisfy applicable age and jurisdiction requirements, and use the Service only where permitted. Mattheus may restrict access based on sanctions, venue rules, risk, or compliance obligations.

4. User Accounts

You are responsible for account activity, connected wallets, credentials, API keys, devices, recovery methods, and keeping information accurate. Do not share credentials or private signing material.

5. Approval-First Execution

AI output alone does not authorize a live action. Supported execution requires the applicable preview, policy checks, account and signer readiness, venue health, feature gates, and explicit approval path. A changed payload requires a new approval. When permissioned execution is enabled, Mattheus is custody-involved: its scoped, auditable services can participate in actions affecting user funds under the permissions you grant. Customer-owned compute does not remove that involvement. Review, limit, and revoke venue, wallet, and protocol permissions as applicable; revocation may not undo an action already submitted. Execution may fail or settle differently than expected.

6. Trading and Financial Risk

Trading, digital assets, securities, options, leverage, lending, liquidity provision, and automated strategies involve substantial risk. You may lose some or all committed funds and, where leverage or borrowing applies, more than an initial margin contribution. Mattheus does not promise profits, yields, fills, uptime, or outcomes.

7. AI Outputs and User Review

AI-generated research, strategies, code, summaries, and previews may be wrong, incomplete, stale, delayed, or unsuitable. You must independently review every material input, assumption, limit, and action before approval.

8. Prohibited Uses

You may not violate law or regulation; manipulate markets or spoof; bypass venue limits or terms; interfere with security or availability; reverse-engineer restricted parts of the Service; or resell access without written authorization.

9. Fees and Billing

Invited staging access is free during the private beta and does not collect a subscription payment. Any separately offered paid plan charges subscription fees in advance on a monthly or annual basis. All paid fees are non-refundable except as required by applicable law. We reserve the right to modify paid-plan pricing with 30 days’ written notice.

10. Intellectual Property

Mattheus and its licensors retain rights in the Service, branding, software, and documentation. You retain rights in content you provide, subject to the limited rights needed to operate and improve the requested Service.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Mattheus is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, loss of profits or data, market losses, or third-party venue and protocol failures. Non-waivable rights remain unaffected.

12. Termination

You may stop using the Service. Mattheus may suspend or terminate access for breach, risk, security, legal, venue, or operational reasons. Obligations that by nature should survive termination remain in effect.

13. Governing Law

Governing-law and dispute terms will be identified in the applicable controlled-beta invitation or written service agreement. This section remains subject to the external legal review status shown above and does not override rights that cannot be waived under applicable law.

14. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms and will provide appropriate notice of material changes. Continued use after an effective update constitutes acceptance where permitted by law.

Questions about these Terms are handled through verified controlled-beta support and legal review workflows.
