Cambrian

Cambrian Network Inc. – Terms of Service

Effective: Aug 18, 2025

1) Who we are and what this covers

These Terms govern your access to and use of services operated by Cambrian Network Inc. (“Cambrian,” “we,” “our,” “us”), a Delaware corporation, including:

  • docs.cambrian.org (documentation and free test queries),
  • opabinia.cambrian.network (API endpoints),
  • our Discord server named “Cambrian Network,”
  • our https://x.com/DeepFortyTwo accounts/bots (collectively, the “Services”).

By using any Service, creating an API key, or sending an x402 payment to an endpoint we control, you agree to these Terms.

2) What the Services do (and do not do)

We perform Extraction, Transformation, and Loading (ETL) of blockchain and off‑chain data (e.g., Twitter/X, Reddit, news, and other sources). API requests may map to SQL queries, run simulations, or call large language models (LLMs). Some outputs are experimental or probabilistic and may contain errors or be difficult to interpret.

No financial advice. The Services are for informational and research purposes only. Although some agents aim to “find alpha,” nothing is investment, trading, or financial advice and no outcome is guaranteed. You are solely responsible for any decisions or transactions you make based on the outputs.

3) Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live) to use the Services. The Services are not for children under 13. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

4) Accounts, API keys, and test queries

  • Developers must generate their own API key (issued via our auth system, currently Clerk).
  • You’re responsible for your credentials and keys; keep them confidential and notify us of any compromise.
  • We may rate‑limit, suspend, or revoke keys for suspected abuse, security risk, or policy violations.
  • Test queries on docs.cambrian.org are provided “as is” and may be restricted or discontinued at any time.

5) Payments

API key payments. We may enable payments for API usage via third‑party processors. When enabled, additional payment terms may apply. We do not store full payment card details.

x402 crypto payments. We may accept direct on‑chain payments via x402 (an agentic payment protocol developed by Coinbase). x402 is experimental. By paying with x402, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • Payments may be irreversible, delayed, or fail due to network issues, protocol changes, wallet errors, volatility, or third‑party actions.
  • Cambrian is not responsible for exchange‑rate movements, gas fees, chargebacks, or failed/duplicate transactions outside our control.
  • By sending an x402 payment to our endpoint, you agree to these Terms even if the x402 flow does not display them inline.

We may change prices, introduce new fees, or discontinue free tiers or channels at any time.

6) Acceptable use and restrictions

You will not (and will not permit others to):

  • use the Services for any illegal, infringing, or harmful purpose;
  • attempt to breach security, interfere with operation, or bypass rate limits;
  • scrape or bulk download outputs to create a competing dataset or model;
  • resell, sublicense, or redistribute outputs except as expressly allowed by us in writing;
  • misrepresent the outputs as professional advice (financial, legal, medical, etc.);
  • use outputs in safety‑critical or high‑risk contexts where errors could cause harm;
  • violate third‑party terms (e.g., Discord, Twitter/X, Coinbase/x402).

We may update usage limits and technical controls at any time to protect the Services.

7) Rights in the Services and outputs

We and our licensors own all rights, title, and interest in and to the Services and underlying software, models, and data. Subject to these Terms and any usage limits, we grant you a non‑exclusive, non‑transferable, revocable license to access the Services and use the outputs for your internal purposes.

You retain rights in your queries to the extent you had them, but you grant Cambrian a worldwide, royalty‑free license to use your queries and the resulting outputs to provide, maintain, and improve the Services (including model and quality improvements), and to comply with law. We may generate and use aggregated or de‑identified analytics.

8) Third‑party content and platforms

The Services may access or display content from third parties (blockchains, news sources, social media, etc.). We do not control and are not responsible for third‑party content or platforms. Your use of third‑party platforms (e.g., Discord, Twitter/X, Coinbase/x402) is governed by their terms and policies.

9) Availability; beta features; free channels

We may add, change, or remove features or channels (including Discord and Twitter bots) at any time. Free channels are not guaranteed and may be rate‑limited or discontinued without notice. Beta features may be unstable and are provided as is.

10) Disclaimers

THE SERVICES AND ALL OUTPUTS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ACCURACY, NON‑INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON‑MISLEADING. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT OUTPUTS WILL BE ERROR‑FREE, SECURE, OR UNINTERRUPTED, OR THAT THEY WILL PRODUCE ANY PARTICULAR FINANCIAL RESULT.

11) Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CAMBRIAN AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS IN THE AGGREGATE IS THE LESSER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO CAMBRIAN FOR THE SERVICES IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY OR (B) USD $100. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS; IN THAT CASE, THE LIMITS APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED.

12) Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Cambrian from and against claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your use of the Services or violation of these Terms.

13) Term; termination

These Terms remain in effect until terminated. We may suspend or terminate access (including API keys) at any time for any reason. Upon termination, your license ends and you must stop using the Services. Sections that by their nature should survive (e.g., 7–15) will survive.

14) Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We’ll post the updated Terms and effective date at docs.cambrian.org (or within the Services). Your continued use after the effective date means you accept the changes.

15) Governing law; venue; export

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflicts of laws. You consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of state and federal courts located in Delaware. You represent that you are not located in a restricted or embargoed jurisdiction and will comply with applicable export and sanctions laws.
