Terms of Use for the Closed Beta
1. Provider and scope
The provider is Livius Despang, Am Seegraben 22, 01139 Dresden, Germany, email: team@aeravia.de. These terms govern the use of AERAVIA during the closed beta. The imprint, the privacy policy and the data processing notice apply in addition. Separate terms, agreed beforehand, will govern any later paid operation.
2. Free test phase
Use during the closed beta is free of charge. No payments are collected, no credit can be purchased, and there is no agreement on a success fee. The balance shown in the console area is a technical usage allowance set up manually by the provider; it has no monetary value, is not paid out and does not entitle you to a particular number of requests.
3. Access and account
Access is by invitation. Sign-in works without a password via a login link sent to the invited email address. Access is personal and non-transferable; the login link and any API keys must not be passed on to third parties. If you suspect that unauthorised persons have gained access, notify the provider without delay.
4. Services during the test phase
AERAVIA matches details about your company and project against a curated catalogue of funding programs, drafts an application on request, checks that draft for gaps and produces a revised version. Drafts and review reports can be stored in your account. AERAVIA provides document checklists, offers deadline alerts by email and an application cockpit with document storage. API keys for programmatic access to the matching are available on request. All results are generated automatically by a language model.
5. No advice, no promise of approval
AERAVIA does not provide legal, tax or funding advice within the meaning of the German Legal Services Act or the Tax Advisory Act. Matches, drafts and review reports are suggestions. Reviewing, completing and submitting an application, and meeting its deadlines, remain with the user. Use of the service creates no claim to approval and no assurance as to eligibility, funding amount or deadlines. Document checklists are derived from funding guidelines with the help of AI and may be incomplete or outdated; only the linked source of the funding body is authoritative. Deadline alerts are a non-binding additional service; the provider does not owe any monitoring of deadlines, and meeting deadlines remains the user's responsibility.
6. Data quality and timeliness
The program catalogue is checked automatically every day: deadlines and the availability of program pages are verified, clearly expired programs are deactivated, and new programs are added after editorial review. This does not guarantee completeness, accuracy or timeliness; automated checks may miss changes or judge them incorrectly. Information on funding programs is non-binding and must be verified with the responsible funding body before any submission.
7. Obligations when using the service
Users provide truthful details about their company and project and must not submit unlawful content. Technical usage limits must not be circumvented; automated bulk retrieval outside the provided interface is prohibited. Users are responsible for all requests made with an API key issued to them.
8. Third-party and confidential input
The company and project details you enter are transmitted to Anthropic (Claude API; contracting party Anthropic Ireland, Limited, processing by Anthropic PBC, USA) in order to generate the results; this may trigger an automated web search. Uploaded documents are not transmitted to Anthropic. Therefore do not enter confidential information or third parties' personal data into the free-text fields. If processing such data is nevertheless necessary, a data processing agreement must be concluded beforehand; details are set out in the data processing notice.
9. Usage limits and suspension
The number of AI runs is limited per account, email address and IP address, and by an overall daily budget; API keys additionally have a request allowance per time window. The provider may suspend individual keys, the account or the entire access without prior notice where operations are at risk, abuse is suspected, or these terms are breached.
10. Availability and end of the test phase
No availability is promised for a test phase; there is no service level. Features may change, be restricted or be discontinued at any time. The provider may end the closed beta at any time without stating reasons. There is no claim to the continuation of individual features or to a transfer into any later paid offering.
11. Stored content and your own backups
Drafts, review reports and uploaded documents stored in your account are not an archive and do not replace your own backups. Users keep their own copies of results they depend on. After the test phase ends, or after the account is deleted, stored content may be removed irreversibly.
12. Rights in input and results
Content submitted by the user remains theirs. They grant the provider a simple right, limited to the duration of the test phase, to process it for the purpose of providing the service. Users may freely use the drafts and review reports generated; the provider asserts no rights in them. Machine-generated texts may resemble one another for similar input and are not necessarily unique.
13. Feedback
Feedback on the test phase is voluntary. The provider may use it free of charge and without time limit to improve AERAVIA. No confidentiality agreement applies to feedback; do not include trade secrets in it.
14. Liability
The provider is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and under the German Product Liability Act. In cases of slight negligence, liability arises only from the breach of a material contractual obligation whose fulfilment makes proper performance possible in the first place and on whose observance the user may rely, and is limited in amount to the foreseeable damage typical of such a contract. As the test phase is provided free of charge, the statutory reductions of liability for gratuitous services apply in addition. In particular, there is no liability for missed funding, missed deadlines, rejected or revoked awards, or for data loss where the user has failed to keep reasonable backups of their own.
15. Data protection
The privacy policy sets out which personal data is processed for which purpose. The data processing notice explains when your use requires a data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR.
16. Term and termination
Either side may end the test-phase relationship at any time without formality, the user by a message to team@aeravia.de or by deleting their account. The provider's right to suspend access immediately under section 9 remains unaffected.
17. Intended users and final provisions
AERAVIA is aimed at companies, self-employed people and founders acting in the course of their business or professional activity. German law applies. If the user is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, Dresden is the place of jurisdiction; mandatory statutory consumer protection provisions remain unaffected. Should any provision be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions is unaffected. The provider announces changes to these terms by email; anyone objecting to them may end their use under section 16.
