Pre-release terms draft
Terms of service
The responsibilities that will govern access to ContractPulsar and its AI-assisted public-sector proposal workflows.
Last updated August 1, 2026
These terms are provided for product QA and legal review. They are not active customer terms and must not be enabled as binding production acceptance until the operating entity, commercial terms, governing law, warranties, liability, indemnity, dispute process, and counsel approval are complete.
1. Draft status
ContractPulsar is in pre-release development. This draft explains the intended user responsibilities and product boundaries so the application can be evaluated honestly before final legal terms are approved.
Production use, payment, service levels, acceptance of customer data, and binding agreement formation require final terms or a separate written customer agreement.
2. The service
ContractPulsar is designed to help organizations discover, understand, qualify, price, author, review, sign, package, and submit responses to public-sector opportunities. Features may include source monitoring, document processing, AI assistance, integrations, and workflow controls.
The service is a work-management and decision-support tool. It is not a government system, procurement authority, law firm, accounting firm, certified public accountant, contracting officer, or guarantor of eligibility, compliance, award, or submission.
3. Accounts and organizations
Users are responsible for:
- providing accurate registration and company information;
- protecting authentication methods and promptly reporting suspected compromise;
- ensuring they are authorized to create or join an organization and process its records;
- managing member roles, access, departures, conflicts, and approval authority; and
- all activity performed through their account unless caused by a verified service failure.
Accounts may not be shared by multiple people. Administrators should remove access promptly when a person no longer needs it.
4. Customer content
Users and their organizations retain their rights in solicitation files, company materials, prompts, drafts, pricing, forms, and other content they provide or create. They grant the service the limited rights necessary to host, process, transform, transmit, back up, and display that content to deliver authorized features.
Users must have the legal right to process the content they provide. They must not upload classified information, unlawfully obtained source-selection information, another bidder's confidential material, malware, credentials, or data prohibited by law or the applicable customer agreement.
Official solicitation files, company evidence, generated work, and submitted artifacts remain distinct records. A generated file does not replace an official source.
5. AI-assisted work
AI may help extract, classify, draft, compare, calculate, summarize, research, review, and answer questions. Outputs can be incomplete, outdated, biased, or incorrect and may not reflect unstated requirements or the contracting authority's interpretation.
Users must review AI output and the cited source before relying on it. Schema validation, citations, confidence labels, or automated checks reduce risk but do not transfer responsibility from the authorized user.
AI may not independently approve a price, certify company eligibility, make a representation to a government authority, sign a document, send a message, schedule a meeting, or submit a response.
6. Proposal and submission responsibilities
The organization remains responsible for the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness, authorization, and timely delivery of every response. It must independently confirm:
- the controlling solicitation, amendments, deadlines, time zone, and submission channel;
- eligibility, registrations, certifications, conflicts, licenses, clearances, and set-aside status;
- pricing inputs, indirect rates, wage requirements, taxes, fee, assumptions, calculations, and workbook mappings;
- that every claim, form response, signature, representation, and certification is accurate and authorized; and
- final filenames, file limits, upload order, portal status, and submission receipt.
A support request, AI task, pending workflow, browser error, or notary appointment does not extend a government deadline.
7. Acceptable use
Users may not:
- violate law, procurement integrity rules, portal terms, sanctions, export controls, or intellectual-property rights;
- misrepresent eligibility, past performance, personnel, pricing, certifications, signatures, or authority;
- attempt unauthorized access, evade access controls, probe other tenants, distribute malware, or disrupt the service;
- scrape restricted systems, bypass authentication, or automate a portal where automation is prohibited; or
- use the service to obtain or exploit nonpublic source-selection or competitor information unlawfully.
8. External services
ContractPulsar may link to or connect with procurement portals, government data sources, email, calendars, e-signature, online notary, cloud storage, AI providers, and other third-party services. Their availability, terms, privacy practices, accuracy, and security are controlled by those providers.
Users must approve external actions and comply with the destination service's rules. A connector or link does not imply government endorsement or a guaranteed submission.
9. Ownership and feedback
ContractPulsar and its software, workflows, design, documentation, and service technology remain the property of their respective owner, excluding customer content and third-party materials.
If users voluntarily provide product feedback, the service may use it to improve ContractPulsar without transferring ownership of customer content or confidential pursuit material.
10. Production terms still required
Before launch, counsel and the operating team must finalize the contracting entity, eligibility to use the service, subscription and payment terms, taxes, availability, support, suspension, termination, confidentiality, warranties, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law, venue, dispute resolution, notices, assignment, export controls, government-use provisions, and order of precedence with customer agreements.
This section is intentionally explicit so the pre-release product does not present incomplete legal language as an approved contract.
