Technically Not

Legal

Terms of Service

Last updated: October 13, 2026

These terms are the agreement between you and us for using this website. The Technically Not desktop app is open source: its code is licensed to you under the MIT licence, not under these terms (section 2). By using this website you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, don’t use the website.

1. Who we are

Technically Not is made by Technically Not LLC, a Colorado limited liability company in Pueblo, Colorado, USA (“we”, “us”). “You” means the person or organization that uses this website or the app.

2. The app’s licence

The Technically Not desktop app is free and open source. Its code is licensed under the MIT licence. That licence, in the LICENSE file of the source code, is the whole licence for the code: it lets you use, copy, change and share it, including for commercial work, as long as the copyright and licence notice stay with it. There is no plan, no subscription and no licence key.

The MIT licence covers the code. It does not cover the name Technically Not, the logo or the mascot: see Trademarks.

The words, pictures and videos on this website are ours and are not under the MIT licence.

3. Using this website

  • Don’t break or overload this website, or try to get into parts of it that aren’t public.
  • Don’t use this website to break the law.
  • Don’t present a changed copy of the app as Technically Not: see Trademarks.
  • You are responsible for following the terms of each AI provider or other service you connect the app to.

4. Your AI provider accounts

Technically Not runs AI coding agents that you install and sign in to yourself, such as Claude Code, Codex and Cursor Agent. You bring your own accounts and subscriptions for them. Technically Not doesn’t include any AI usage.

  • Each agent is made by its own provider and runs under that provider’s terms and privacy policy. You are responsible for following them and for any fees they charge.
  • We don’t control those agents or providers. We aren’t responsible for their output, availability, pricing or changes.
  • Provider names are used only to identify compatible tools. We aren’t affiliated with or endorsed by them.

5. Your files, code and agents

Agents you run in Technically Not can read, create, change and delete files, run commands, and use Git in the folders you give them. You choose which agents to run, where, and with which permissions.

  • You are responsible for what agents do on your computer, including changes to your files and code and anything they send to their providers.
  • Review agent changes before you rely on them, and keep backups and version control.
  • AI output can be wrong, insecure or infringe others’ rights. Check it before you use or ship it.
  • You own your projects. We claim no rights in your files, code or prompts.

6. No purchases

Technically Not is free. We sell no plan, subscription or licence, and this website takes no payment.

If you bought a plan before the app became free, that purchase was handled by Stripe (Stripe Managed Payments), which acted as the reseller (Merchant of Record), and you can write to support@technicallynot.ai about it. The refund promise made at that purchase still holds: a full refund within 14 days of the purchase, or of a renewal charge, for any reason. To ask for one, email us from the address you bought with.

7. Updates

We may release updates that fix bugs, add features or change or remove features. The app can check for updates automatically; you can turn this off in Settings. We don’t promise to keep any feature, to support every agent CLI, or to keep working with agent versions that their providers change.

8. Third-party software

The app includes open-source components under their own licenses. Those licenses apply to those components. See the open-source notices.

9. No warranty

The app is provided “as is” and “as available”. As far as the law allows, we give no warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability and non-infringement. We don’t promise the app will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that agents run in it will behave as you expect.

The MIT licence carries its own “as is” notice for the code. This section says the same for this website and for the installers we publish.

If you are a consumer, you may have legal rights that can’t be excluded. Nothing in these terms limits those rights.

10. Limitation of liability

As far as the law allows:

  • We aren’t liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, or for lost data, code, profits or business.
  • We aren’t liable for actions taken by AI agents, AI providers or other third-party services.
  • Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us for the app in the 12 months before the claim.

Nothing here limits liability that can’t be limited by law, such as for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

11. Termination

You can stop using this website and the app at any time. The MIT licence for the app’s code does not end because of these terms. We may block access to this website for someone who seriously breaks section 3. Sections 5 and 9–12 survive termination.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, USA. Disputes go to the state or federal courts located in Colorado. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country you live in, and can bring claims there.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We’ll change the “Last updated” date above, and say so on this website when a change is important. For a plan bought before the app became free, the terms in force at that purchase keep applying to it unless you agree otherwise.
