1. Parties and Acceptance

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and Otto AI, Inc. ("Otto," "we," "us," or "our"), governing your access to and use of the Otto AI assistant platform, including all associated software, APIs, websites, mobile applications, and services (collectively, the "Service").

By (a) creating an account, (b) clicking any button indicating acceptance, (c) accessing or using the Service, or (d) otherwise manifesting your assent to these Terms, you represent that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.

If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, in which case "you" refers to that entity.

You must be at least 16 years of age to use this Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms.

2. Description of Service

Otto is an AI-powered personal assistant that connects to third-party applications and services (such as Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Slack, Notion, and others) and performs tasks on your behalf through natural language interaction. Otto uses large language models (LLMs) and automated systems to understand requests and execute actions.

The Service includes, but is not limited to: email reading, drafting, and sending; calendar viewing, creation, and modification; task management; web research; document creation and editing; scheduled automations ("Routines"); memory storage and retrieval; and integration management.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature of the Service at any time, with or without notice, without liability to you. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of material changes.

3. Account Registration and Security

Registration. To access the Service, you must create an account by providing accurate, current, and complete information including your name, email address, and a password. You agree to keep this information updated.

Account security. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to immediately notify us at legal@ottohq.app of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your credentials.

One account per person. You may not create multiple accounts to circumvent plan limits or bans. Accounts are non-transferable.

Account termination by you. You may delete your account at any time from the Settings page. Upon deletion, your data will be permanently removed within 30 days, subject to our data retention obligations described in the Privacy Policy.

4. Authorized Use and Prohibited Conduct

You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

  • Use the Service to violate any applicable local, state, national, or international law or regulation;
  • Use the Service to send spam, unsolicited bulk communications, or harassing messages;
  • Use the Service to transmit any content that is defamatory, obscene, fraudulent, threatening, hateful, or otherwise objectionable;
  • Impersonate any person or entity, or falsely represent your affiliation with any person or entity;
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other user accounts, or any computer systems or networks connected to the Service;
  • Use automated means (bots, scrapers, crawlers) to access the Service except through authorized APIs;
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or discover source code of the Service;
  • Remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notices in or on the Service;
  • Use the Service to develop a competing product or service;

  • Circumvent or attempt to circumvent any usage limits, plan restrictions, or rate limits imposed by the Service;
  • Use the Service to infringe upon the intellectual property rights of any third party.

We reserve the right to investigate suspected violations and to suspend or terminate your account without notice if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have violated these Terms.

5. AI-Generated Content and Limitations

Nature of AI outputs. Otto uses artificial intelligence and machine learning models that may produce outputs that are inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, biased, or otherwise unreliable. AI-generated content does not constitute professional advice of any kind.

Not professional advice. Nothing in the Service constitutes legal, medical, financial, tax, investment, psychological, or any other form of professional advice. You should not rely on Otto's outputs as a substitute for qualified professional consultation in any field.

User responsibility for actions. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL ACTIONS TAKEN BY OTTO ON YOUR BEHALF. Before authorizing Otto to send emails, delete data, schedule events, make purchases, or take any other consequential action, you agree to review and verify the intended action. Otto's confirmation prompts are a convenience feature, not a guarantee of accuracy.

No guarantee of results. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your specific requirements, that outputs will be accurate or complete, or that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

Third-party AI models. The Service uses third-party AI providers (including Anthropic) to process your queries. Your inputs may be transmitted to these providers in accordance with their terms of service and our Privacy Policy.

6. Third-Party Integrations and Connected Services

OAuth connections. To provide its functionality, Otto requires you to grant it access to third-party services via OAuth 2.0 or similar authorization protocols. By connecting a third-party service, you authorize Otto to access and act upon that service on your behalf, within the scopes you grant.

Scope of access. We request only the minimum permissions necessary to provide the features you use. A complete list of permissions requested for each integration is available on the Integrations page.

Third-party terms. Your use of connected third-party services is governed by those services' own terms of service and privacy policies. We are not a party to those agreements and have no control over third-party services, their availability, accuracy, or data practices.

Revoking access. You may disconnect any third-party integration at any time from the Integrations page, which will cause Otto to delete the stored access token and cease accessing that service.

No endorsement. Our integration with any third-party service does not constitute an endorsement of that service.

Google Services specifically. Otto's access to Google APIs is subject to Google's Terms of Service. Otto's use of data obtained from Google APIs is limited to the purposes disclosed in these Terms and our Privacy Policy, consistent with Google's API Services User Data Policy including the Limited Use requirements.

7. Intellectual Property

Our IP. The Service and its original content, features, and functionality — including but not limited to software, code, design, logos, text, graphics, and trade secrets — are and will remain the exclusive property of Otto AI, Inc. and its licensors. These are protected by copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other laws.

Your content. You retain all ownership rights to data, text, files, and other content you provide to the Service ("Your Content"). You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to store, process, display, and transmit Your Content solely for the purpose of operating and providing the Service to you.

Feedback. If you provide us with feedback, suggestions, or ideas about the Service, you grant us an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free license to use such feedback for any purpose without obligation or compensation to you.

No training on your data. We do not use Your Content or your conversation data to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models, whether our own or third-party, without your explicit written consent.

8. Payments, Plans, and Subscriptions

Free plan. We offer a free plan with limited features and usage. We reserve the right to modify the free plan's limits or discontinue it at any time with 30 days' notice.

Paid plans. Paid plans are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis, as selected at time of purchase. All fees are stated in US dollars and are non-refundable except as required by law or as expressly stated herein.

Automatic renewal. Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless you cancel before the renewal date. By subscribing, you authorize us (or our payment processor, Stripe) to charge your payment method for recurring fees.

Price changes. We may change our pricing with 30 days' advance notice. Your continued use of the Service after the price change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.

Cancellation. You may cancel your subscription at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and you will retain access to paid features until that date. We do not provide prorated refunds for unused portions of a billing period.

Failed payments. If your payment method fails, we may suspend access to paid features and attempt to collect payment. If payment is not received within 14 days, we may downgrade your account to the free plan or terminate your account.

Taxes. Prices do not include applicable taxes. You are responsible for all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities in connection with your use of the Service.

9. Privacy and Data

Our collection and use of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Service, you consent to our collection and use of your data as described in the Privacy Policy.

You represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights and consents to provide us with any data you share through the Service, and that your use of the Service does not violate any applicable privacy laws.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU IN FULL.

12. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Otto AI, Inc., its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to:

Informal resolution. Before initiating any formal legal proceeding, you agree to first contact us at legal@ottohq.app and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. We will use good faith efforts to resolve the dispute within 30 days.

Binding arbitration. If informal resolution fails, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service (except as noted below) shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in English, and the arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding.

Class action waiver. YOU AGREE THAT ANY CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

Exceptions. Either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights. Small claims court actions are also exempt from arbitration.

Governing law. These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

14. Term and Termination

These Terms remain in effect as long as you use the Service. We may suspend or terminate your access immediately, without prior notice, for any of the following reasons:

  • You breach any provision of these Terms;
  • We are required to do so by law;
  • We reasonably believe your account has been used for unauthorized purposes;
  • We decide to discontinue the Service.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service immediately ceases. Sections 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, and 17 of these Terms survive termination.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email and/or by displaying a prominent notice in the Service at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Non-material changes may take effect immediately upon posting.

Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of changes constitutes your acceptance of the modified Terms. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, you must stop using the Service and may delete your account.

We maintain a version history of these Terms. The version you agreed to at sign-up is recorded in our systems with a timestamp for compliance purposes.

16. Service Availability and Maintenance

We strive to make the Service available 24/7, but we do not guarantee uptime. The Service may be unavailable due to scheduled maintenance, unplanned outages, force majeure events, or factors outside our control. We are not liable for any losses or damages resulting from Service unavailability.

We may impose usage limits, throttling, or restrictions to maintain service quality for all users. Excessive use that materially impacts other users may result in temporary restrictions.

17. General Provisions

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other policies or agreements expressly incorporated herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and Otto AI, Inc. with respect to the Service and supersede all prior agreements, representations, and understandings.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

Waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. A waiver of any right or provision must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Otto AI, Inc..

No assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights hereunder without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms without restriction.

Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control, including natural disasters, government actions, internet outages, or third-party service failures.
