Terms & Conditions - Software Built on Demand

BuildMyApp is a negotiation-free zone designed to remove buyer/seller friction.

Your price is final and cannot be changed after posting.
If no developer takes your request, you must wait 6 months before reposting the same concept at a different price.
Set a price you're genuinely happy and willing to pay.

This policy ensures serious listings and prevents lowball repricing.

Once the developer submits a delivery, you have a review window to accept or reject it. If you don't respond in time, the delivery is automatically accepted.

BuildMyApp Terms & Conditions

Version 1.0 — Effective April 7, 2026

1. Platform Overview

BuildMyApp is a demand-driven software marketplace operated by Maia AI, LLC. Buyers post software requests with fixed prices, developers submit proposals, and accepted proposals result in monitored builds with warranty protections.

2. Fixed Pricing

All requests are posted at a non-negotiable fixed price set by the buyer. Prices cannot be changed after posting. If a request expires without a developer accepting it, the buyer must wait 6 months before reposting the same concept at a different price.

3. Platform Fees

BuildMyApp charges a 25% platform fee on all completed transactions. The remaining 75% is paid to the developer after the warranty period concludes without a valid claim.

Non-Exclusive License Revenue Sharing: For software delivered under a non-exclusive license, future licensing fees generated through the platform are shared: 50% to the developer, 25% to the original buyer, and 25% to BuildMyApp. Developers may only relicense non-exclusive software through BuildMyApp.

4. Payment Flow

Payments are processed through Stripe. When a buyer's request is matched with a developer, funds are held by the platform during the build period and the subsequent 30-day warranty period. Funds are released to the developer only after the warranty period concludes without a valid claim.

5. Acceptance & Auto-Accept Policy

When a developer submits a delivery, the buyer has a review window to accept or reject it. If no action is taken within the review window, the delivery is automatically accepted.

Price Range	Review Window
Under $1,000	3 days
$1,001 – $10,000	7 days
$10,001 – $50,000	10 days
Over $50,000	14 days

6. Warranty Terms

After acceptance, a 30-day warranty period begins. During this period, the buyer may file a warranty claim if the delivered software fails to meet the acceptance criteria specified in the original request.

Covered: Features listed in acceptance criteria that stopped working, incorrect output for specified inputs, regressions from the delivery state.

Not covered: New feature requests, compatibility with environments not specified in the original request, performance expectations not defined in acceptance criteria, issues caused by the buyer's modifications to the delivered code.

AI Review: Acceptance criteria are reviewed by AI before posting to ensure they are objectively verifiable and reasonable within the scope of warranty coverage. Criteria may be modified to meet these standards.

Dispute Resolution: Any disputes regarding warranty claims will be resolved through LLM Arbitration provided by Vilora.ai.

7. Rejection Policy

Buyers may reject a delivery during the review window. Rejections result in a full refund to the buyer. Rejection history is tracked on the buyer's record and is visible to developers as part of the buyer's acceptance rate.

8. Commit Monitoring

During active builds, BuildMyApp monitors the developer's GitHub repository for commit activity. Commits are assessed by AI to determine whether they represent substantive progress. If no substantive commits are detected for 14 consecutive days, the build may be revoked.

9. Reputation System

BuildMyApp maintains computed reputation metrics for all users, including completion rates, acceptance rates, warranty claim rates, and ratings. These metrics are public and cannot be manipulated. They are calculated from actual platform activity.

10. Limitation of Liability

BuildMyApp provides a platform for matching software developers with software buyers and does not develop, sell, license, or warrant any software or services provided by users. All transactions and interactions between users are solely between the participating parties. BuildMyApp disclaims all liability arising from or related to any software, services, or other materials provided by users, including any claims related to performance, defects, infringement, or failure to meet expectations.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the total aggregate liability of BuildMyApp arising out of or related to these terms or the use of the platform shall not exceed the total fees paid by a Buyer to BuildMyApp for a specific transaction giving rise to the claim.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Maia AI, LLC, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunities, arising out of or related to the use of, or inability to use, the platform or services, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so the above limitations may not apply to the extent prohibited by law.

11. Governing Law & Forum

These Terms & Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any legal action or proceeding arising out of or related to these terms or the use of the platform shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Travis County, Austin, Texas, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.
