Welcome to Forest AI, an intelligent document search and AI-powered agent platform operated by Forest AI LLC (collectively, "Forest AI", "we", "us", or "our"). These Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of our website, applications, APIs, plugin integrations, and related services (collectively, the "Services"). Please read these Terms carefully before using our Services.
By accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.
If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and "you" refers to both you and that organization.
Forest AI provides a cloud-based platform for document management, AI-powered search, AI agent creation and deployment, automated data processing pipelines, plugin integrations with third-party AI assistants (including ChatGPT and Claude), and related services. Our Services include but are not limited to:
You must create an account to access certain features of the Services. You agree to provide accurate and complete information during registration and to keep your account information current. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must promptly notify us of any known or suspected unauthorized use of your account.
You must be at least 18 years old to use the Services. If you are under 18, you may only use the Services with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. Accounts are not transferable, sublicensable, or assignable without our prior written consent.
Fees, Payment, and Price Changes: Paid features require an active subscription or payment plan. Subscription fees are billed in advance, typically on a monthly basis, and are non-refundable except as required by applicable law. We may change prices for subscriptions from time to time, and subscription prices may fluctuate on a monthly basis; we will provide reasonable notice before any change takes effect for your current subscription term. Usage that exceeds the amount included in your plan, such as token or API overage usage, is billed at our then-current rates and may be charged at any time once incurred. Amounts due are payable in U.S. dollars plus any applicable taxes, and unpaid amounts may result in suspension or termination of your access to the Services.
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Services for your internal business purposes in accordance with the applicable subscription or plan you select.

Our IP: Forest AI and its licensors own all rights, title, and interest in the Services, including but not limited to the software, technology, algorithms, models, prompts, user interface, trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, and branding. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved by Forest AI and its licensors.
Your Content: You retain all rights, title, and interest in the content you upload, submit, or input into the Services ("Your Content"). You grant Forest AI a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, process, store, reproduce, and display Your Content solely for the purpose of providing, operating, maintaining, and improving the Services to you. You represent and warrant that you own or have all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions in and to Your Content and that Your Content does not infringe the rights of any third party.
Output: Subject to these Terms, we assign to you all rights to the AI-generated output produced through your use of the Services, to the extent permitted by law. However, due to the nature of AI, similar or identical outputs may be generated for different users, and no user acquires rights to such shared outputs or to the underlying models.
Our Services use artificial intelligence and large language models to generate responses, summaries, and analyses. AI-generated output may contain errors, omissions, inaccuracies, or outdated information, and it may reflect inherent model limitations or biases. You are solely responsible for evaluating and independently verifying any output before relying on or acting upon it.
Forest AI output and Services do not constitute professional advice (legal, medical, financial, accounting, or otherwise). Where output touches on such matters, you should consult a qualified professional. Forest AI makes no warranty that output will be accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free, or that it will meet your requirements.
Your privacy is important to us. Our collection, use, and protection of your personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Services, you consent to the processing of your personal information as described therein.
Each party may have access to the other party's non-public, proprietary, or confidential information ("Confidential Information"). You agree to hold our Confidential Information in confidence and not to disclose it to any third party, or use it for any purpose other than exercising your rights and performing your obligations under these Terms. This obligation survives termination of these Terms.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Forest AI and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, and suppliers from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, judgments, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Services; (b) Your Content, including any claim that Your Content infringes the rights of a third party; (c) your violation of these Terms or any applicable law; or (d) your violation of the rights of any third party.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FOREST AI AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, AND SUPPLIERS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUES, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Upon termination: (a) your license to use the Services terminates; (b) we may disable your access to the Services; and (c) we may delete or archive Your Content in accordance with our data retention and deletion policies. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17) shall survive.
Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performance due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, acts of government, war, terrorism, pandemics, power or network failures, telecommunications outages, strikes, or any other events of force majeure. We will use reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable.
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be effective upon posting to our website or notifying you by other means.
