Monet Desktop End User License Agreement

Effective July 6, 2026 · Garton Holdings, LLC

This Monet Desktop End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you and Garton Holdings, LLC, a California limited liability company ("Garton Holdings", "we", "us", or "our"), for the Monet desktop software distributed directly by us, including the macOS direct-download edition, the Windows installer, related Tauri desktop builds, bundled helper tools, updates, documentation, and any associated services or diagnostics (collectively, "Monet" or the "Software").

This Agreement covers copies of the Software you obtain directly from us (for example, from iammonet.com or our release channels). If you obtain a Monet app from Apple's App Store, that copy is governed by Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement and our Terms of Service, not by this Agreement.

By downloading, installing, launching, accessing, or using the Software, you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install, launch, access, or use the Software.

1. Subscription, trial, and paid features

The Software's full feature set ("Monet Pro") is sold as an auto-renewing subscription. Purchases are processed by Paddle, our merchant of record, under the pricing published at iammonet.com/pricing. New subscriptions include a free trial period as described at purchase; after the trial, the subscription renews automatically at the published price until cancelled. Cancellation and refunds are described in our Terms of Service and Refund Policy.

If your trial or subscription ends, the Software may continue to operate with reduced functionality (for example, viewing existing projects) without creating any right to the full feature set. We may also provide some builds or features without charge; free availability does not create any service-level commitment, support obligation, warranty, maintenance obligation, or liability beyond what applicable law requires.

To validate your trial or subscription, the Software may communicate with our licensing providers (Paddle and RevenueCat) as described in our Privacy Policy.

2. License grant

Subject to this Agreement, and conditioned on your compliance with it and on any active trial or subscription required for paid features, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to install and use the Software on devices you own or control for your internal personal or business design-review workflows.

3. Ownership and restrictions

The Software is licensed, not sold. We and our licensors retain all rights, title, and interest in the Software, including all intellectual property rights. The capture-annotate-handoff-verify pipeline is the subject of pending patent rights (U.S. provisional application 64/071,601).

You may not:

  • copy, resell, rent, lease, sublicense, redistribute, host, or commercially exploit the Software except as expressly allowed by us in writing;
  • share, resell, or pool a single subscription across people or organizations beyond the use this Agreement permits;
  • reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive source code from the Software except where applicable law permits that activity despite this restriction;
  • remove, obscure, or alter copyright, license, proprietary, or attribution notices;
  • circumvent, disable, or interfere with licensing, entitlement, or trial enforcement in the Software;
  • use the Software to violate laws, third-party rights, platform terms, website terms, robots policies, security controls, or privacy obligations;
  • use the Software to crawl, copy, capture, upload, process, or distribute content unless you have all necessary rights and permissions;
  • use the Software in a production, safety-critical, medical, financial, legal, emergency, infrastructure, or high-risk environment where failure could cause harm.

4. Your projects, content, credentials, and responsibilities

You are solely responsible for the websites, repositories, files, screenshots, annotations, prompts, API keys, tokens, credentials, model outputs, crawler targets, and other content or configuration you provide to or use with the Software ("User Content").

You represent that you have the rights and permissions necessary to use your User Content with the Software. You are responsible for backing up your data, securing your credentials, reviewing generated outputs, and complying with all laws, contracts, privacy obligations, platform rules, and third-party terms that apply to your use.

The Software may call services you configure, including GitHub, Vercel, Render, Cloudflare, screenshot services, AI providers, crash-reporting providers, and other third-party APIs. We are not responsible for third-party services, fees, outages, data practices, model behavior, API changes, or terms.

5. AI and automation outputs

The Software may help generate, summarize, classify, annotate, critique, or route design feedback and other outputs using local logic or third-party AI services. You are solely responsible for reviewing and validating all outputs before relying on them. Outputs may be incomplete, inaccurate, offensive, unsafe, noncompliant, or unsuitable for your use case.

6. Web capture and crawling

The Software may capture screenshots, crawl websites, inspect pages, store local copies of screenshots or metadata, and interact with local or remote websites you choose. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of these features is authorized, lawful, respectful of rate limits and access controls, and consistent with applicable website terms, robots directives, privacy rules, and intellectual-property rights.

7. Diagnostics, crash reporting, and privacy

The Software includes crash and error reporting, enabled by default and controllable in the Software's Settings. When enabled, the Software sends crash reports, error events, and launch session signals to our crash-reporting provider (Sentry, operated by Functional Software, Inc.). Reports include technical information such as app version, build number, operating system version, stack traces, error messages, device/runtime metadata, and limited request context; error log lines may reference a page URL the Software was processing when the error occurred. We do not intend to collect API keys, authorization headers, cookies, identity fields, or raw project content in diagnostics, and the Software includes filtering intended to reduce that risk. Some builds may also include additional diagnostics, logs, or feedback tools. You should not include secrets or sensitive personal data in feedback reports.

Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy. Your use of third-party services from within the Software is also governed by those services' privacy practices and terms.

8. Updates, changes, and availability

We may modify, suspend, discontinue, remove, replace, or stop supporting the Software or any feature at any time without liability, subject to any non-waivable rights you have under applicable consumer law. Updates may change or remove functionality. Except as required by law or expressly promised at purchase, we have no obligation to provide maintenance, support, compatibility updates, security fixes, data recovery, uptime, or continued availability.

9. No warranty

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Software is provided "as is", "as available", and "with all faults", without warranties of any kind. We disclaim all express, implied, and statutory warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, quiet enjoyment, availability, compatibility, security, and error-free or uninterrupted operation.

You assume the entire risk arising out of your installation, access, and use of the Software.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some exclusions may not apply to you. In that case, warranties are excluded or limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will Garton Holdings, its members and managers, platform operators, distributors, licensors, contributors, suppliers, or service providers be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, punitive, enhanced, or similar damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, business, goodwill, data, credentials, content, opportunities, savings, use, or productivity, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the total aggregate liability of Garton Holdings and the parties listed above for all claims arising out of or relating to the Software or this Agreement will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the Software in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) five U.S. dollars (US $5.00).

The limitations in this section apply to all theories of liability, including contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, statute, and otherwise. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain liability limitations, so some limitations may not apply to you. In that case, liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

11. Indemnity

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Garton Holdings and our licensors, contributors, suppliers, service providers, distributors, and platform operators from and against claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or related to your User Content, your use or misuse of the Software, your violation of this Agreement, your violation of law or third-party rights, or your use of third-party services with the Software.

12. Termination

This Agreement begins when you first download, install, launch, access, or use the Software and continues until terminated. You may terminate it at any time by stopping use and deleting the Software. We may terminate or suspend your license if you violate this Agreement or if we discontinue the Software; termination of the license does not by itself terminate any refund rights described in our Refund Policy. Upon termination, you must stop using and delete the Software. Sections intended to survive termination will survive, including ownership, restrictions, disclaimers, liability limits, and indemnity.

13. Export, sanctions, and compliance

You may not use, export, re-export, import, sell, or transfer the Software except as authorized by applicable law, including U.S. export-control and sanctions laws. You represent that you are not located in, under control of, or a national or resident of a restricted country or party where use is prohibited by applicable law.

14. Third-party components

The Software may include open-source and third-party components governed by their own license terms. This Agreement does not replace those third-party license terms. To the extent required, third-party notices are included with the Software or made available in accompanying documentation.

15. Governing law and disputes

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules, and any dispute arising out of or relating to it will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Stanislaus County, California, except where applicable law gives you the right to bring claims elsewhere. Nothing in this Agreement limits any non-waivable consumer rights you have under the laws of your place of residence.

16. Changes to this Agreement

We may update this Agreement from time to time. If we make material changes, we may require you to accept the updated Agreement before continuing to use the Software. Continued use after an update means you accept the updated Agreement.
