These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern access to and use of daski.io, Daski APIs, machine and Agent interfaces, service discovery, transaction routing, payment coordination, and related marketplace technology (collectively, the “Daski Platform”).
The Daski Platform enables AI agents and other automated systems to discover and purchase business services from independent third-party providers. Every service listed on the Daski Platform is offered and performed by the identified provider, not by Daski.
1. The Operator is the legal party
In these Terms:
- Operator means the natural person or legal entity that deploys, directs, controls, or authorizes an automated system to use the Daski Platform on its behalf and that is intended to receive the benefit of a transaction and be legally bound by it.
- Agent means an AI agent, software agent, computer program, or other automated system acting for an Operator.
- Provider means the independent third party that offers and performs a service listed on the Daski Platform.
- Provider Service means a service supplied by a Provider through the Daski Platform.
- you and your mean the Operator. They do not mean that an Agent is a legal person.
An Agent is not the contracting party and has no age, residence, or legal personality. Instructions in these Terms addressed to an Agent tell the Agent when it may use the Daski Platform and how it must act for its Operator. The corresponding legal rights and obligations belong to the Operator.
2. Eligibility
An Operator may use the Daski Platform only if it:
- is either a duly organized legal entity or a natural person at least 18 years old and legally able to contract;
- uses the Daski Platform for business, professional, or commercial purposes and not primarily for personal, family, or household purposes;
- is organized or resident in the United States, or is a United States sole proprietor;
- is not prohibited from using the Daski Platform by applicable law; and
- authorizes each Agent and payment method used on its behalf.
An Agent’s hosting location, model provider, or runtime location does not by itself determine the Operator’s eligibility.
3. Agent authority and responsibility
The Operator must define and control each Agent’s authority, including its permitted services, spending limits, data access, approval requirements, credentials, wallets, and duration of authority.
An Agent may proceed with a purchase only if it has actual authority from its Operator to:
- use the Daski Platform;
- select the Provider Service;
- supply the information required for that service;
- access and evaluate the legal documents presented for the transaction;
- agree to these Terms and the Provider’s terms on the Operator’s behalf; and
- authorize the final stated payment amount using the designated payment method.
Instruction to every Agent: If you do not have that authority, cannot determine its scope, cannot access the linked terms, or encounter a transaction outside your Operator’s limits, do not proceed. Obtain further authorization from your Operator.
The Operator represents that actions taken through credentials, wallets, keys, capabilities, or approval mechanisms it supplied or approved are authorized within the limits it established. Daski may reasonably rely on those actions unless Daski knows they are unauthorized.
When an Agent completes a transaction within its actual or reasonably attributable authority after receiving the final purchase notice, the Agent’s action is treated as the Operator’s action. The Operator is bound by these Terms and the applicable Provider terms even if no natural person reviewed that individual transaction at the time it occurred. Using an autonomous Agent does not shift responsibility from the Operator to the Agent, Daski, the Agent developer, or the Agent’s model or hosting provider.
4. Electronic contracting and purchase notice
These Terms are available at https://daski.io/terms-of-use. Daski’s Privacy Policy is available at https://daski.io/privacy-policy.
The Operator authorizes Daski to deliver transaction information and legal notices through the Agent interface, API, wallet workflow, or other communication route the Operator chose. The Operator is responsible for ensuring that its Agent can receive the notice and either act within authority or escalate to the Operator.
Before payment, the final quote or payment challenge will provide or transmit:
- the Provider Service and Provider identity;
- the total amount to be authorized and applicable payment details;
- links to these Terms and the Daski Privacy Policy;
- links to the Provider’s applicable terms and privacy notice; and
- an Agent-facing notice explaining the authority required and the legal effect of authorizing payment.
By transmitting the payment authorization after that notice, the Agent confirms that it has authority for the transaction. The authorization is treated as the Operator’s manifestation of assent, and the Operator agrees to and is bound by these Terms and the Provider terms linked for the transaction.
Privacy policies describe data practices and are not accepted as contracts unless they expressly state otherwise. Daski does not require a checkbox, separate signature, or separate acceptance ledger when the scoped payment authorization follows the required notice.
5. Daski is a marketplace, not the service provider
All Provider Services are offered, contracted for, and performed by independent Providers. Daski supplies marketplace discovery, communications, routing, coordination, payment-related technology, and related infrastructure. Daski does not itself provide the listed Provider Services.
For every Provider Service:
- the service contract is directly between the Operator and the Provider;
- the Provider controls the service’s scope, eligibility, inputs, performance, delivery, support, warranties, cancellations, refunds, renewals, and legal terms;
- Daski does not supervise, employ, control, endorse, certify, or guarantee the Provider;
- Daski is not responsible for Provider statements, omissions, documents, performance, output, or legal compliance; and
- disputes about the Provider Service must be addressed with the Provider.
Daski may transmit communications, but it has no duty to resolve a Provider dispute, perform the service, reverse a payment, or fund a refund from its own assets.
6. Provider legal documents
Each Provider supplies its legal name, terms URL, and privacy URL. Those links are returned with the Provider Service and repeated in the final purchase response.
The Operator is responsible for reading and understanding the Provider’s documents before purchasing. An Agent acting autonomously must retrieve and evaluate them under the Operator’s policies or escalate them to the Operator. If the documents are inaccessible, unclear, inconsistent with the Operator’s instructions, or outside the Agent’s authority, the Agent must not purchase the service.
Daski does not legal-review, approve, summarize, interpret, or guarantee Provider legal documents. Daski hashes the disclosed transaction terms into the signed listing epoch so a purchase can be tied to the version presented, but that technical commitment is not a legal review. The Provider is solely responsible for its documents, changes, availability, and records.
7. Prices, payment, and settlement
The final quote or payment challenge states the total amount the Operator must authorize. Daski may show an informational breakdown, but the total stated amount controls if a breakdown conflicts with it.
Payment uses the canonical USDC contract on the disclosed Base network and a standard x402 V2 Exact-EVM authorization. By authorizing payment, the Operator:
- represents that it controls or may lawfully use the payment method and funds;
- authorizes the stated amount and associated transaction;
- understands that public-blockchain transactions may be visible and generally cannot be reversed by Daski after confirmation; and
- accepts responsibility for wallet security, network compatibility, external transaction fees, and inaccurate payment instructions.
The payment is sent to the immutable outcome splitter identified in the final challenge. After finality, anyone may call its release function, which routes the disclosed Provider share and Daski commission directly to their respective wallets. The facilitator does not become a payee and Daski does not custody the gross payment. Daski does not guarantee the value of a digital asset or continuous availability of any network, wallet, smart contract, or payment system.
Sending USDC directly to a splitter, token contract, payee, or other disclosed address outside the exact signed HTTP 402 purchase flow is not a Daski purchase. It creates no marketplace order, Provider fulfillment obligation, confidential receipt, or reversal right, even if the transfer resembles a supported payment.
The Operator is responsible for taxes, duties, reporting, and withholding arising from its purchases, except taxes imposed on Daski’s own net income.
8. Final payments and transaction problems
Standard-rail payments are final at launch. Daski does not advertise or operate a Platform refund, guarantee, protected purchase, or independently verified service outcome. Payment settlement does not itself establish service completion, and a public-blockchain payment is not reversible by Daski.
A Provider may require identity, business, sanctions, eligibility, or other compliance information after payment when the signed listing and Provider terms disclose that possibility. Failure or refusal to complete that review does not make an on-chain payment reversible. Any cancellation, credit, or refund a Provider separately offers is governed and performed outside the launch payment rail under the Provider’s own terms.
The Operator must report service-delivery disputes to the Provider and may contact Daski for marketplace-routing or payment-coordination assistance. Daski does not hold a reserve or retain the gross payment: release sends the disclosed shares directly to the Provider and Daski wallets.
For a stock-fixed outcome, retrying the identical signed payment authorization is a transport retry of the same purchase. Creating a new signature or authorization nonce creates a distinct final purchase, even when its request and price are identical. Distinct purchases are not merged or reversed by operator discretion.
9. Marketplace activity, outcomes, and confidential receipts
Daski issues a signed confidential receipt bound to the payer wallet, order, listing, amount, settlement evidence, release evidence, and Provider task. The receipt is a technical record of the marketplace workflow, not an endorsement, certification, warranty, or public reputation statement.
Daski may index and display transaction facts already recorded publicly, including the payer wallet, a publicly registered Agent identity when resolvable, the service, amount, timestamp, settlement transaction, Provider-attested outcome, and payer confirmation. Daski does not publish request contents, confidential receipts, Provider task identifiers, or private lifecycle and asset data, and the payer-authorized private order history remains access-controlled.
A Provider outcome is a statement by the Provider. A payer confirmation is a statement by the Operator on whose behalf it is submitted. Neither is a statement, endorsement, certification, warranty, or guarantee by Daski. The Operator must not use self-dealing, fabricated purchases, coordinated activity, or misleading claims to manipulate reputation, marketplace discovery, or apparent demand.
10. Acceptable use
The Operator must ensure that it and its Agents do not use the Daski Platform to:
- violate law, sanctions, export controls, or another person’s rights;
- obtain or facilitate fraud, deception, theft, malware, credential abuse, unauthorized surveillance, exploitation, or evasion of legal controls;
- interfere with, overload, probe, scrape, reverse engineer, or bypass security, rate limits, access controls, pricing, or payment mechanisms, except as permitted by law or written authorization;
- impersonate another person or misrepresent identity, authority, location, or transaction purpose;
- manipulate Provider outcomes, marketplace discovery, or apparent demand;
- provide data without the necessary rights, notices, permissions, or lawful purpose;
- place passwords, wallet secrets, private keys, seed phrases, full payment-card data, government identifiers, or similar secrets in ordinary prompts, public blockchain fields, or marketplace metadata; or
- use Provider output contrary to Provider terms or applicable law.
Daski may block a service, wallet, Agent, Provider, transaction, or location when reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, platform integrity, or protection of others.
11. Security and credentials
The Operator must protect its Agent credentials, API keys, wallets, devices, and approval controls; apply reasonable limits; promptly revoke obsolete access; and notify Daski through its support channel of suspected compromise.
No software, AI, Internet, smart-contract, or blockchain system is completely secure. The Operator accepts the risks of bugs, exploits, prompt injection, incorrect Agent behavior, compromised tools or data, forks, congestion, outages, and irreversible transactions.
12. Privacy
Daski’s handling of personal data is described in the Daski Privacy Policy. Providers handle service data under their own privacy notices. The Operator is responsible for determining whether it may provide personal data and for giving notices or obtaining permissions required from the individuals involved.
13. Open-source licensing, intellectual property, and feedback
Daski source code and documentation published in a repository under the MIT License are governed by that license. Nothing in these Terms limits rights granted by the MIT License or another open-source license applicable to particular material, including the right to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, or sell copies subject to that license. If these Terms conflict with an applicable open-source license for the licensed material, the open-source license controls for that material.
Open-source licensing does not grant a right to use Daski’s names, logos, trademarks, domain names, or branding, and it does not provide access to credentials, infrastructure, hosted data, Provider relationships, or Daski’s operated instance of the Platform. Daski and its licensors retain their rights in those items and in website content, documentation, data compilations, and other materials that have not been released under an open-source license. Access to Daski’s operated websites, APIs, and hosted services remains subject to these Terms.
Provider terms determine rights in service inputs and outputs. The Operator grants Daski the limited rights needed to validate, store for the declared retention period, transmit, secure, and troubleshoot its instructions and content. Daski may use voluntarily supplied ideas and suggestions that are not code, personal data, or confidential information without restriction or compensation, but will not identify the person providing them publicly without permission.
14. Third-party systems
The Daski Platform depends on Providers, Agent runtimes, models, wallets, blockchain networks, smart contracts, infrastructure vendors, and other third parties. Their terms apply independently. Daski is not responsible for systems it does not control. Open-source components remain subject to their applicable licenses.
15. Suspension and termination
The Operator may stop using the Daski Platform, but stopping does not cancel completed purchases or accrued obligations.
Daski may restrict or terminate access for unlawful activity, sanctions risk, fraud, security risk, lack of authority, material breach, nonpayment, harm to the Platform or another person, or a legal or infrastructure requirement. Where reasonably practicable, Daski will provide notice and an opportunity to cure.
Payment, ownership, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, disputes, and provisions that by their nature should survive will survive termination.
16. Disclaimers
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE DASKI PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” DASKI DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS, IMPLIED, AND STATUTORY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, SECURITY, AVAILABILITY, AND RESULTS.
DASKI DOES NOT WARRANT A PROVIDER; A PROVIDER’S LEGAL DOCUMENTS; THE ACCURACY, LEGALITY, COMPLETENESS, OR FITNESS OF A PROVIDER SERVICE OR OUTPUT; THE AUTHORITY OR PERFORMANCE OF AN AGENT; PAYMENT SETTLEMENT; OR UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION.
These disclaimers apply only to the extent permitted by law.
17. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DASKI AND ITS AFFILIATES, MANAGERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND LICENSORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR DIGITAL ASSETS; OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THEIR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM THE DASKI PLATFORM, THESE TERMS, OR A TRANSACTION WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE DASKI PLATFORM CHARGES RETAINED FOR THE AFFECTED OPERATOR DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY OR (B) US$100.
The exclusions and cap do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
18. Indemnification
The Operator will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Daski and its affiliates, managers, members, employees, contractors, and licensors from third-party claims, damages, penalties, losses, and reasonable costs arising from the Operator’s or its Agent’s use of the Daski Platform, breach of these Terms or Provider terms, violation of law or another person’s rights, supplied data or instructions, or lack or misuse of authority.
Daski will provide reasonable notice and may control the defense with counsel of its choice. The Operator may not settle a claim in a way that admits Daski’s fault or imposes obligations on Daski without written consent.
19. Governing law and disputes
Wyoming law governs these Terms and related disputes without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The state courts located in Laramie County, Wyoming, and the United States District Court for the District of Wyoming have exclusive jurisdiction, and each party consents to jurisdiction and venue there.
Before filing a claim, a party must send a written notice describing the dispute and requested relief through the contact route in Section 22 and allow 30 days for informal resolution, unless immediate injunctive relief is reasonably necessary.
20. Changes to these Terms
Daski may update these Terms prospectively by posting a revised version and effective date at the Terms URL. Daski will provide reasonable advance notice of material changes when practicable. Changes do not retroactively alter completed purchases. Later use after revised Terms take effect constitutes agreement for that later use.
Daski may retain ordinary business copies of its own prior Terms but does not promise a transaction-specific archive or acceptance ledger.
21. General
These Terms, the final quote or payment challenge, and Daski policies expressly incorporated into them are the entire agreement between Daski and the Operator concerning the Daski Platform. Provider terms separately govern each Provider Service.
Daski may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, reorganization, sale of assets, or transfer to an affiliate. The Operator may not assign them without Daski’s consent and may not transfer Agent credentials or payment authority outside their intended scope.
Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. If a provision is unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remainder will remain effective. These Terms do not create a partnership, joint venture, employment, fiduciary, franchise, or service-provider relationship between Daski and the Operator or a Provider.
Neither party is liable for delay caused by events beyond its reasonable control, except that this does not excuse payment obligations for completed transactions.
