Terms & Conditions

Effective and last updated 25 October 2026

These terms are the agreement between you and BeatyourAI for using beatyourai.com and for pre-ordering and buying BeatyourAI products and plans. Our Privacy Policy, Cancellations, Returns & Refunds policy and Shipping & Delivery policy are part of these terms. By pre-ordering or buying, you agree to them.

1. Who we are

BeatyourAI (“BeatyourAI”, “we”, “us”) is run by its co-founders, Lakshay Bhati and Adit Arora. BeatyourAI is not yet a registered company. Until it is, BeatyourAI is run by its two co-founders, who are the seller of every order. When we register a company, it will take over these terms and your order on the same conditions, and we’ll tell you by email before that happens.

2. Who can order

• You must be 18 or older and able to enter into a binding contract.
• Give us accurate details and use an email address you control. We use it to find and manage your order.
• Founder units are for personal use, one per email address. You may give yours as a gift: tell us who will receive it before it ships.

3. Using the website

• Don’t misuse the site. That includes attacking or overloading it, scraping it at scale, using bots or scripts to grab founder numbers, or using several email addresses to reserve more than one founder unit. We may cancel and refund reservations made this way.
• The interactive penguin on the homepage is a demonstration. Anything it “gives” you, such as the $10 Pat Drop shown in the demo, is not real and has no value.
• We can change, pause or remove parts of the website at any time.

4. The product

BeatyourAI buddies are soft silicone desk companions with two digital screen eyes. With the BeatyourAI app, slapping one asks for a review of your AI tool’s latest answer, prompt or code, and patting it makes it react. The eyes show its mood and status.

• The product is still in development. The images, renders, animations and photos on this website are digital concepts made to show the design. The units we ship may differ in small ways, such as colour, size, finish, materials, packaging and screen graphics.
• If we make a material change to what you pre-ordered, for example a different size or a feature we can no longer include, we’ll tell you before it ships, and you can cancel for a full refund.
• The app, the plans and their features (reviews, MCP access, personal reviews, Pat Drop) become available when buddies ship. We’ll describe them fully before then.
• Maximum retail price (MRP) in India: ₹7,499, inclusive of all taxes. Country of origin: to be confirmed before shipping. When we confirm it, you can still cancel for a full refund.

5. Pre-orders: how they work

5.1 Your founder spot

The founding batch has 1,000 numbered units. When you finish the short pre-order steps, we hold the lowest free founder number and the founder price for you for 2 hours. If you don’t pay within that time, the number goes to the next person.

5.2 Paying

You pay the full founder price when you reserve: ₹5,999 in India or $70 elsewhere. The price after the founding batch will be ₹7,499 / $89. The price includes shipping and taxes (see Shipping & Delivery). Payments are processed by Razorpay. We never see or store your full card number, CVV, UPI PIN or banking password.

5.3 When your order is confirmed

Your contract with us is formed when your payment is confirmed and your founder card appears on the page, showing your founder number. We contact you at the email you used about production, shipping and your delivery address.

5.4 When we refund automatically

• If a second payment arrives for an email address that already holds a founder unit.
• If the last founder units are taken while you’re paying.

In both cases we refund the full amount without you having to ask.

5.5 When we may cancel

We may cancel a reservation and refund everything you paid if we can’t verify the payment, if we have good reason to suspect fraud or abuse, if a price was obviously wrong, or if we can’t make or ship the product.

5.6 Delivery estimate and delays

We expect to ship the founding batch in July 2027. This is an estimate: a new product depends on factories, testing and certification. We’ll email you updates as production moves along. If we expect to miss July 2027, we’ll tell you as soon as we know, give you a new estimate, and you can wait or cancel for a full refund. Where the law of your country (for example the US Federal Trade Commission’s Mail Order Rule) requires your consent to a delay, we’ll ask for it, and if you don’t give it, we’ll cancel and refund your order.

5.7 The founder gift

Every founder unit comes with 3 months of Plus, the $10 plan (3 months free). The free months start when your buddy is delivered and Plus is available. The gift has no cash value, can’t be exchanged or transferred on its own, and ends if your reservation is cancelled or returned. After the free months, Plus continues only if you choose to subscribe. We never start charging you for Plus without your agreement.

5.8 Invoices

We give you an invoice for your purchase.

6. Prices, currency and payment

• We show prices in Indian rupees (INR) for India and US dollars (USD) elsewhere, and you can switch. You’re charged in the currency shown when you pay.
• Your bank or card issuer may add currency conversion or foreign transaction fees. Those are between you and your bank; we don’t receive them.
• Razorpay offers UPI, cards and netbanking in India, and international cards and Apple Pay elsewhere. The exact methods depend on your country and bank.
• Prices for future orders may change. The price you reserved doesn’t.
• If a payment fails, isn’t completed, or is reversed by your bank, we may cancel the reservation.

7. Cancellations, returns, refunds and warranty

You can cancel any time before your buddy ships for a full refund. After delivery you have 14 days to return it, damaged or wrong items are replaced or refunded at our cost, and every buddy has a 12-month limited warranty. The details, including how refunds work for payments more than 6 months old, are in our Cancellations, Returns & Refunds policy.

8. Plans: Free and Plus

No plan is sold yet. Plans start when buddies ship, and nothing on this website charges you for Plus. When Plus launches, we’ll show its full terms (price, billing, renewal and cancellation) before you subscribe, and those terms will apply to it.

• Free comes with every buddy: slap-to-review, general fixes in a pop-up on your computer, 10 reviews a day, the eyes and pats. We may change Free plan limits with notice.
• Plus is planned at $10 a month (or the local price and taxes we show before you subscribe). It adds MCP server access, personal reviews, unlimited reviews within fair use, Pat Drop, slap history, extra eye faces and early features. It renews monthly until you cancel. You can cancel any time, and it stops at the end of the month you’ve paid for.

8.1 Pat Drop

Every Plus account gets one credit worth $10 of AI credits. One of your pats between month 1 and month 6 of Plus unlocks it; which pat is the surprise.

• One Pat Drop per account, not per buddy.
• Your Plus plan must be active when it drops.
• The credits are for an AI service we’ll name when Plus launches, and they follow that service’s terms, including any expiry date.
• The credit has no cash value and can’t be exchanged, sold or transferred.
• Pat Drop is not a lottery or a game of chance: every eligible Plus member gets the same $10. Only the moment is a surprise.

9. The AI features

• Reviews and suggested fixes are produced by AI models, ours and other companies’. They can be wrong, incomplete or insecure. You decide what to use. Check code and answers before you rely on them, and take extra care with anything involving security, money, health or legal matters.
• You’re responsible for what you send for review. Only send content you have the right to share, and don’t send other people’s personal data unless you’re allowed to.
• With Plus, our MCP server sends fix requests into the AI tools you connect. You choose which tools to connect and what they may do, and you decide whether to keep the changes they make.
• Before the app launches, we’ll explain in the app and in our Privacy Policy exactly what it sends and to whom.

10. Using your buddy safely

• BeatyourAI is a desk companion for adults. It’s not a toy and not suitable for children under 14.
• It’s built for open-hand slaps and pats. Don’t hit it with objects, drop it, crush it, put it in water or near heat, or open it.
• Follow the safety guide that comes in the box, including its charging instructions.
• Slap your buddy, not people.

11. Intellectual property

• The website, the product designs, the characters (Penguin, Brown Bear, Tan Bear, Winter Bear, Hamster, Cowboy Frog and Butter Mochi), our names, logos, images, text and code belong to BeatyourAI or are used with permission. You may view the site and share links to it. Don’t copy it for commercial use.
• The website shows partly hidden names of AI products and companies, such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, to describe the kinds of tools BeatyourAI works with. Those names are trademarks of their owners. BeatyourAI is independent and is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by any of them.
• If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them without owing you anything.

12. Our responsibility to you

• Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have under consumer law, including India’s Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the consumer laws of the country you live in.
• We work to keep the website available and accurate, but we provide it “as is” and can’t promise it will always be free of errors or interruptions.
• Your buddy’s warranty is described in our Cancellations, Returns & Refunds policy.
• As far as the law allows, our total liability to you for an order is limited to the amount you paid for it, and we aren’t liable for indirect losses such as lost profits, lost data or lost business, or for losses caused by AI output you chose to use.
• We don’t limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else the law doesn’t allow us to limit.

13. Events outside our control

We aren’t responsible for delays or failures caused by events we can’t reasonably control, such as natural disasters, epidemics, war, strikes, supplier or factory failures, government action or carrier disruption. If one affects your order, we’ll tell you, and you can cancel for a full refund.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We’ll post the new version here with its date. If a change materially affects an order you’ve already placed, we’ll email you first. The price you reserved stays the same, and if you don’t accept the change you can cancel for a full refund.

15. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of India. If something goes wrong, please contact us first; most problems are quickest to solve that way. The courts at New Delhi, India have jurisdiction. You can also bring a complaint before the consumer commission where you live or work, as India’s Consumer Protection Act, 2019 allows. If you live in the European Union, the United Kingdom or another country with mandatory consumer protections, you keep those protections and may bring claims in your local courts where your law gives you that right.

16. General

• These terms and the policies they link to are the whole agreement between you and us about your order.
• If any part of them can’t be enforced, the rest still applies.
• We may transfer our rights and duties under these terms to the company we register for BeatyourAI. You may not transfer yours without our consent, except for giving your founder unit as a gift.
• If we don’t enforce a right straight away, we can still enforce it later.
