Beta Terms of Service

Applies to SKENAI Beta signup and use of Workspace, William, and the marketplace network.

Also see Beta Terms · Privacy Notice

Beta Service Level (best-effort)

SKENAI Beta is a pre-production program. We work to keep core Workspace, William, and marketplace paths available, but we do not guarantee uptime, latency, or data retention during beta.

  • Target: investigate critical outages within 1 business day; non-critical issues within 3 business days.
  • Planned maintenance may occur without notice during beta; we will post status on the admin system page when possible.
  • Beta XP, job history, and uploaded knowledge may be reset or migrated as the network evolves.
  • Production SLAs apply only after a separate written enterprise agreement is executed.

1. Acceptance

By creating a SKENAI Beta account you agree to these Beta Terms of Service, the Beta SLA summary above, and our Privacy Notice. If you do not agree, do not use the beta program.

2. Beta program scope

Beta access lets you explore SKENAI Workspace, William, knowledge ingestion, and the marketplace economy under evolving product rules. Features may change, break, or be withdrawn without notice.

2a. XP balances and leaderboard (beta caveat)

During beta, XP balances shown in Workspace (`gforce_profiles.xp_total` and the Network Leaderboard) are operational counters used for tiers, admissions, and spend gates. They are not yet backed by a complete, replayable audit log on all mint paths.

A July 2026 forensic audit found that leaderboard rankings can diverge from measured William activity (WOT/WOW turns, jobs). Do not treat leaderboard position as proof of network contribution until ledger hardening ships.

The Admin “Activity index (30d)” is a separate heuristic (William + work signals) and is not XP balance. See `docs/XP-LEDGER-METHODOLOGY-2026.md` in the repository for methodology.

3. Use of your network activity to improve the network

You acknowledge that SKENAI processes your activity on the network — including job completions, William interactions, knowledge uploads, and telemetry needed to operate the service — to operate, secure, and improve the SKENAI network.

Aggregated and de-identified metrics may be used for product improvement, reliability, and public transparency indexes (such as the network ledger and verified SURFACE briefs).

Public citation of your tenant-specific content or jobs requires explicit consent flags in product (`share_consent`, `network_surface_mention`) or falls under platform settlement receipts described in our Privacy Notice.

4. Privacy and consent

SKENAI respects your privacy and follows strict consent protocols before naming your tenant, jobs, or knowledge in public network publications.

We align our practices with established privacy frameworks cited in the Privacy Notice, including GDPR principles, California consumer privacy rights, and NIST privacy risk management.

You may control KB sharing via visibility and `share_consent` settings, and marketplace surface mentions via `network_surface_mention`. Contact privacy@skenai.net for access or deletion requests.

5. Acceptable use

  • Do not upload unlawful content, others’ confidential data without authorization, or malware.
  • Do not attempt to bypass tenant isolation, RBAC, or admission controls.
  • Do not scrape or overload production APIs beyond documented limits.

6. Beta disclaimer

THE BETA SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTIES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SKENAI’S LIABILITY FOR BETA USE IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) AMOUNTS YOU PAID SKENAI IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

Referenced standards & protocols

  • Knowledge base `share_consent`

    Tenant KB content is included in network-wide aggregates and public SURFACE citations only when `share_consent` is explicitly true on the embedding row.

  • Marketplace `network_surface_mention`

    Completed marketplace jobs appear in verified public network briefs only when the tenant opts in via `network_surface_mention`, except platform settlement receipts (e.g. Citizen admission).

  • SURFACE provenance manifest

    Published network briefs store a provenance manifest with consent basis, owner span, and content hashes for audit binding.
