This Founding Beta Agreement (the "Agreement") is between Kelly Anderson LLC, operating as Year41 ("Year41"), and the business accepting it, whether a company or an individual doing business as a sole proprietor (the "Customer"). It governs the Customer's participation in the founding beta of Year41 OS (the "Service"). The Year41 Terms of Service (the "Terms") also apply, and terms defined in the Terms have the same meaning here. If this Agreement and the Terms conflict, this Agreement controls for the Beta Period, and the provisions of this Agreement that survive under Section 14 continue to govern matters arising from the Customer's beta participation after the Beta Period ends.
1. Nature Of The Beta
The Service is AI software that helps run the day-to-day operations of a business, including email, outreach, a CRM, tasks, projects, calendars, workflows, finance tools and reports. The beta is an early version of the Service. It is in active use, including by Year41's own businesses, but it continues to change. Features may be added, changed or removed, and the Customer may encounter errors. Identifying them is part of the purpose of the beta.
2. Beta Period
The Beta Period is 30 days from the date the Customer's account is activated, which is the date the beta fee is paid.
3. Beta Fee And What Is Included
- Fee. For the Beta Period, the Customer pays a special founding beta price for the Plan it selects instead of that Plan's standard monthly price. At current prices, the founding beta price is $49 for the Starter Plan (standard price $99 per month), $99 for the Growth Plan (standard price $199 per month) and $199 for the Pro Plan (standard price $399 per month). The beta fee is charged through Year41's payment provider, currently Stripe, when the account is activated. Nothing is charged before then.
- Included. The beta includes the selected Plan's seats, workflows and full included AI use. The Customer's use is shown as a percentage in the application.
- What the beta price covers. The founding beta price applies only to the Plan fee for the Beta Period. Additional seats, top-ups and any other paid features are charged at Year41's standard prices shown in the application at the time of purchase.
- Refunds. If the Customer cancels, or Year41 ends the Customer's beta access because the Customer breached this Agreement or the Terms, no refund is due, except where required by law. If Year41 ends the Customer's beta access for any other reason, including ending the beta program, Year41 refunds the unused portion of the beta fee, calculated by the number of days remaining in the Beta Period, and the unused portion of any top-ups the Customer purchased during the Beta Period.
4. When Included AI Is Used
If the Customer uses all of the AI included in the beta, research-intensive work pauses and chat continues on a faster model. The Customer may purchase extra AI at any time with optional top-up packs at standard prices. No amount beyond the beta fee is charged unless the Customer chooses to purchase it.
5. After The Beta Period
At the end of the Beta Period, the Customer's account continues on the Plan it selected at that Plan's standard monthly price ($99 for Starter, $199 for Growth or $399 for Pro, at current prices), charged automatically to the payment method on file, unless the Customer cancels before the Beta Period ends. Additional seats the Customer has added continue to be billed at their standard price. Before payment, checkout shows the beta fee, the date the Beta Period ends and the first monthly charge. Year41 will remind the Customer by email at least seven days before the first monthly charge.
The Customer may change its Plan at any time in the application. A new Plan takes effect at the start of the next billing period, and from then on the Customer is charged only for the Plan it has chosen, plus any additional seats and extra AI it chooses to purchase.
The founding beta price does not continue after the Beta Period. Paid Plans are billed at Year41's standard prices, unless Year41 has offered the Customer special pricing in writing.
6. Customer Participation
During the Beta Period, the Customer agrees to participate reasonably in the beta, including to:
- use the Service for its actual business, so that testing reflects real work;
- report errors and points of confusion it notices through the Feedback button in the application or by email; and
- review what the Service drafts before approving it (see Section 9).
Year41 may also invite the Customer to up to two brief check-in calls or meetings during the Beta Period, ask for a testimonial and, at the end of the Beta Period, invite it to complete a short survey. All of these are voluntary, and none is a condition of the founding beta price. A testimonial should reflect the Customer's honest experience.
7. Feedback, Testimonials And Public Use
Year41 may use any feedback, suggestions, survey answers or call notes internally to improve the Service, without compensation or obligation to the Customer. Year41 publishes the Customer's feedback, testimonial, name or business name, for example on its website or in its marketing, only with the Customer's approval of what will be published. Where required by law, Year41 discloses that the Customer received founding beta pricing alongside a published testimonial.
8. Confidentiality
The beta includes features and plans that are not yet public ("Beta Information"). The Customer will not share screenshots, recordings or details of features that have not been publicly released without Year41's written consent. The Customer may always describe its own experience using the Service and share its own Customer Data and results.
Beta Information does not include information that is or becomes public through no fault of the Customer, that the Customer already knew or lawfully receives from someone else without a duty of confidentiality, or that the Customer develops independently. The Customer may share Beta Information with its own legal, financial and other professional advisers who are bound to keep it confidential, and where required by law, after giving Year41 notice where legally permitted. These obligations last until the information becomes public or for two years after the Beta Period ends, whichever is sooner.
Year41 keeps the Customer's business information confidential as described in the Terms and the Year41 Privacy Policy.
9. AI, Automation, Finance And Compliance
- The Service uses AI, which can produce results that are inaccurate, incomplete or out of date. The Customer should review drafts, research, contact details, financial categories and anything important before relying on it.
- Year41 recommends keeping messages and posts on approval. If the Customer enables automatic sending or other automation, the Customer accepts the associated risks and is responsible for anything sent or done under the settings it chooses.
- Bank connections are read-only, and the Service does not process payroll, transfer wages or file taxes. The Customer is solely responsible for its payroll, tax and wage obligations, including the lawfulness of any deduction from a worker's pay, as described in Section 9 of the Terms.
- The Customer is responsible for complying with the laws and platform rules that apply to its business, including email marketing and privacy laws (such as CAN-SPAM) and the terms of any connected service. For businesses in regulated fields, such as healthcare, finance, legal or insurance, outgoing messages always wait for approval.
10. Customer Data And Support Access
Sections 10 (Customer Data) and 11 (Support Access) of the Terms apply in full during the Beta Period, including their provisions on service providers, AI training, export and deletion, and the limited exceptions to support access.
11. Third-Party Services And AI Applications
Section 12 of the Terms applies in full. Any fees a Third-Party Service charges are the Customer's responsibility and are not part of the beta fee.
12. No Warranties And Security
The beta is provided "as is" and "as available." Year41 does not guarantee that it will always be available or free of errors, or that it will produce any particular result, such as sales, replies, bookings or press coverage. Section 18 of the Terms, including its provisions on security measures, unauthorized access by third parties and the Customer's security responsibilities, applies in full during the Beta Period.
13. Limitation Of Liability
To the extent permitted by law, Year41's total liability to the Customer for any claim arising from the Customer's participation in the beta is limited to the beta fee the Customer paid. Claims about the paid Service after the Beta Period are governed by Section 19 of the Terms. Neither party is liable to the other for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost profits or lost data. Year41 is not liable for any loss caused by hacking or other unauthorized access by third parties, as described in Section 18 of the Terms.
14. Cancellation And Ending The Beta Early
- Stopping use is not canceling. Not using the Service does not cancel it or stop the first monthly charge. To cancel, the Customer follows Section 7 of the Terms, in the application or by email to here@year41.com.
- Canceling during the beta. If the Customer cancels during the Beta Period, its access continues until the Beta Period ends, no monthly charge follows, and no refund is due.
- If Year41 ends beta access. Year41 may end the Customer's beta access if the Customer misuses the Service or breaches this Agreement or the Terms, and may end the beta program for all participants with notice. Either way, the scheduled monthly subscription is canceled and no monthly charge follows, unless the Customer chooses to move to a regular Plan. Refunds follow Section 3.
- Survival. Sections 3 (Refunds), 7, 8, 10, 13 and 15 survive the end of the Beta Period and continue to govern matters arising from the Customer's beta participation.
15. General
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey. Disputes are handled as described in Section 22 of the Terms. If any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. This Agreement and the Terms are the entire agreement between the parties regarding the beta. Questions may be sent to here@year41.com.
16. Acceptance
