Terms of Service — tentus

Effective: August 19, 2026

These terms govern your use of tentus, operated by elmt studio. By using tentus, you agree to them. If you don't agree, don't use the service.

1. The service

tentus is a personal knowledge management product: you capture notes, files, voice memos, and clips, and retrieve them by meaning. It includes AI features — Lumi answers questions from your own captured material, proactively surfaces relevant context and suggested actions, and, when you explicitly confirm, can act on your behalf in connected apps (send an email, create a doc, and similar). Features evolve as the product develops.

2. Your account

You are responsible for:

  • Keeping your password and connected OAuth accounts secure.
  • Activity that happens under your account.
  • Keeping your own backups of anything critical.
  • Complying with the laws that apply to you.

3. Acceptable use

You may not:

  • Reverse-engineer, probe, or attempt to break the service.
  • Use tentus for illegal purposes or to store illegal content.
  • Resell or sublicense access.
  • Scrape or bulk-export data for resale.
  • Upload malware, or harass or harm others.

4. Recording meetings and conversations

tentus can capture audio — recording an in-person meeting or lecture, capturing a call playing in your browser, or sending a notetaker into a video call. If you use any of these, the following applies.

  • Getting consent is your responsibility. Many places require every participant to consent before a conversation is recorded, and some require it before recording can lawfully begin. You are responsible for knowing the rules that apply to you and everyone in the conversation, and for obtaining whatever consent those rules require. tentus does not obtain consent on your behalf and cannot determine what your jurisdiction requires.
  • Some recordings are not visible to others. In-person and browser-tab capture produce no indication to anyone else that recording is happening. That makes telling participants more important, not less. The notetaker bot does appear as a participant, but its presence is not by itself consent.
  • Only record what you are entitled to record. Do not use these features for a conversation you have no right to record, and do not use them to record someone who has asked you not to.
  • You are responsible for what you capture. A transcript created this way is your content under Section 5, and the same acceptable-use rules apply to it as to anything else you store.

If you are unsure whether you may record a particular conversation, do not record it.

5. AI-generated content

Lumi is an AI assistant. Anything it writes for you — research documents, summaries, digests, briefings, notes created on your instruction — is generated by a language model and marked as such, both in the content's own metadata and where it is displayed or exported. See the Privacy Policy's "AI-generated content and transparency" section for the full detail.

Two practical consequences worth stating plainly:

  • Check it before you rely on it. Model output can be wrong, out of date, or confidently mistaken, including about your own notes. Do not treat it as verified fact, and do not use it as a substitute for professional advice.
  • Do not strip the marking when you republish. If you publish or share AI-generated content from tentus elsewhere, the disclosure is there for the benefit of whoever reads it next, and in the EU you may have your own obligation to keep it.

6. Intellectual property

  • Your content is yours. You grant us a limited license to store and process it solely to provide the service to you.
  • Our software is ours. These terms don't transfer any ownership of the tentus software, interface, or brand.

7. Disclaimer of warranties

tentus is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind. We aim for high availability and careful handling of your data, but we don't guarantee uninterrupted service, freedom from errors, or that data will never be lost. Keep your own backups of anything important.

8. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including lost data, missed notifications, or business losses from downtime. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, if any.

9. Indemnification

You agree to cover claims arising from your misuse of the service or from content you upload in violation of these terms.

10. Termination

We may suspend or close an account that violates these terms or engages in fraud or illegal activity. You may delete your account at any time in Settings.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We'll give notice of material changes; continued use after notice means you accept them.

12. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Dominican Republic, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. We'll try to resolve any dispute informally first — email juan@tentus.io and we'll work with you in good faith. Disputes not resolved informally are subject to the courts of the Dominican Republic.
