Terms of Service

Last updated: January 6, 2026

🔑 BYOK Disclaimer (Important!)

BuildFix uses a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) model. This means:

  • You provide your own API keys (Claude, GitHub, Vercel)
  • You pay those providers directly - Not BuildFix
  • You control your usage and costs
  • BuildFix is a tool, not a reseller of AI services

BuildFix's fees are separate from your API costs. You're responsible for monitoring and paying for your Claude, GitHub, and Vercel usage.
