Upstratus Alpha User Agreement
Version 2026-10-15.1
This agreement is between Intelligena LLC ("we", "us"), which operates Upstratus, and the person agreeing to it ("you"). It covers your participation in the Upstratus public alpha. Please read it: ticking the box when you sign up is a binding commitment, and we record which version you agreed to.
1. What you are getting
We are giving you early access to Upstratus before its general release, on the plan named in your approval email, for the period stated there. There is no fee for the alpha and no card is taken. Your place is approved by us, and we may decline or withdraw a place at our discretion.
2. Your projects and data
The recordings, photos, labels, models and project settings you put into Upstratus remain yours, and we do not acquire any right to them by running this alpha beyond what is needed to run the service for you (storing, processing and training on them at your request). Confidentiality under this agreement runs one way: it covers our unreleased product, never your data. Because the alpha is unfinished software, keep your own copy of anything you cannot afford to lose.
3. Confidentiality
Everything you learn about Upstratus through the alpha that is not already public is confidential. That includes unreleased features, screens and workflows, how the software behaves and where it falls short, performance and defects, supported boards that are not yet announced, our plans and roadmap, and pricing that is not published. You agree not to disclose any of it to anyone else, and not to publish screenshots, recordings, walkthroughs, reviews or benchmarks, without our written permission. This obligation continues until the information becomes public through no act of yours.
4. Boards, keys and the desktop app
You are responsible for the hardware you connect to Upstratus and for keeping your API keys and signed-in devices secret. Revoke a key or a signed-in app from your account if you think it has been exposed. Software generated for a board is provided for you to review before you run it: you decide whether and where to flash it, and you should not rely on a generated model or code in any setting where a failure could injure a person or damage property.
5. Not building a competing product
You agree that you will not use anything you learn through the alpha to design, build, specify, advise on or otherwise assist in the development of a competing service for training and deploying models to microcontrollers, whether for yourself or for anyone else, while this agreement is in force and for twelve months afterwards. This restricts the USE OF WHAT YOU LEARN HERE. It does not restrict your employment, and nothing in it prevents you working in embedded or machine-learning engineering generally or using knowledge and skill you already had or later acquire independently.
6. The software is unfinished
The alpha is provided as-is. It may contain defects, lose data, change without notice, or become unavailable. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for loss arising from your use of the alpha. This does not limit anything that cannot be limited by law.
7. Feedback
If you send us feedback, suggestions or defect reports, we may use them freely and without obligation to you. You keep no rights in a feature we build as a result.
8. Ending it
Either of us may end your participation at any time and for any reason. We will give you a reasonable opportunity to export your project data if we end it. Clauses 2, 3, 5 and 6 survive the end of this agreement.
