Terms of Service
Last updated: 22 April 2026
Service
Tessera AI is an advisory service that audits businesses and recommends AI tools based on publicly observable data and, in paid engagements, data clients voluntarily provide. Recommendations are informational and do not constitute professional legal, financial, or medical advice.
Free teardowns
Free 1-page teardowns are generated automatically from public data. They are provided as-is without warranty. We do not guarantee accuracy of inferences — findings are based on limited public data and presented as observations, not assertions.
Paid engagements
Deep Audits ($800–2,500) and Retainer agreements ($1,500–5,000/month) operate under separate written engagement letters signed by both parties. Terms of each engagement (scope, deliverables, timeline, confidentiality) are specified in those letters and supersede these general terms.
We offer a 50% refund for retainer clients who do not achieve targeted ROI in the first quarter, subject to the engagement letter terms.
Vendor neutrality
Tessera AI takes no affiliate revenue, referral fees, or any other compensation from tool vendors we recommend. Client fees are our only income. If this ever changes, we will disclose it clearly and allow affected clients to terminate without penalty.
Intellectual property
Tessera AI's framework, audit methodology, and proprietary templates remain our property. Audit outputs delivered to clients may be used internally for any purpose. Republishing Tessera AI audits externally without permission is prohibited.
Liability
Tessera AI's liability is limited to fees paid by the client in the preceding 12 months. We are not liable for business decisions made based on our recommendations. Clients retain responsibility for evaluating recommendations before implementation.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Tessera AI is incorporated. Disputes are resolved by arbitration where permitted, otherwise through courts of competent jurisdiction.
