Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 29 April 2026

These Terms govern your access to and use of the Caret marketing website (heycaret.com) and the Caret application during private beta. By using either, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use the service.

1. Who we are

"Caret", "we", "us", or "our" means Animo Tech Pvt. Ltd., a company incorporated in India. "You" or "your" means you, the person using Caret or the website.

2. The service

Caret is an agentic coachmark application that observes your screen, suggests next steps in any application, and — when you ask — performs actions on your behalf. Caret is currently in private beta, which means:

Features may change, break, or disappear without notice.
Access is invitation-only via the waitlist and may be revoked at our discretion.
The service is provided as-is, with no commitment to uptime, support response, or feature parity.

3. Eligibility & account

You must be at least 16 years old to use Caret. By joining the waitlist or installing Caret, you confirm you meet this requirement. If we issue you beta access, you're responsible for keeping any credentials or invitation codes confidential.

4. How Caret works on your device

Caret runs locally on your computer and requires permission to read your screen contents and (optionally) send keystrokes or mouse actions in order to function. You grant Caret permission to:

Capture pixels and accessibility metadata from windows you have visible while Caret is active.
Send those captures to our AI providers (or models running on your device) to determine the next step.
Where you explicitly ask it to, perform clicks, keystrokes, and form fills on your behalf.

You can pause Caret, dismiss any action with Esc, or revoke macOS permissions at any time. We will never act outside of the explicit task you've given Caret.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to use Caret to:

Break the law or violate the rights of others.
Bypass paywalls, license restrictions, CAPTCHA systems, or anti-fraud controls in third-party software.
Automate activity in violation of another service's terms (e.g. scraping LinkedIn against its rules).
Attempt to reverse-engineer Caret's models, infrastructure, or proprietary logic, except where Indian law expressly permits.
Interfere with the service, probe for security weaknesses, or abuse our AI providers' rate limits.

We may suspend or terminate access for any breach of this section without notice.

6. Your content & data

Anything Caret captures from your screen ("Captured Content") remains yours. By using Caret you grant us a limited license to process that content solely to provide the service — which includes sending it to AI providers for inference and storing minimal metadata for debugging. We do not use your Captured Content to train AI models. See our Privacy Policy for details.

7. AI output disclaimer

Caret's suggestions and actions are produced by AI models that can make mistakes. You are responsible for reviewing what Caret does on your behalf. Don't use Caret in life-critical, financial, medical, legal, or otherwise high-stakes contexts without independent verification. We make no warranties about the accuracy, completeness, or fitness of Caret's output.

8. Intellectual property

Caret, the Caret name and triangle mark, the website, and the underlying software are owned by Animo Tech Pvt. Ltd. and protected by Indian and international copyright and trademark law. Nothing in these Terms transfers any IP rights to you. We grant you a limited, non-transferable, revocable license to use Caret as intended during beta.

9. Fees

Caret is free during private beta. We will give waitlist members at least 14 days' notice before introducing paid tiers, and any free-tier limits will be communicated in advance.

10. Termination

You can stop using Caret at any time by uninstalling the app. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if we discontinue the service, or for any other reason at our discretion during beta. Sections that by their nature should survive (IP, disclaimers, liability, governing law) will survive termination.

11. Disclaimers

CARET IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND — EXPRESS OR IMPLIED — INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. We don't warrant that Caret will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Animo Tech Pvt. Ltd. and its directors, employees, and contractors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of Caret. Our total liability for any claim relating to Caret will not exceed ₹1,000 (one thousand Indian rupees) or the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, whichever is greater.

13. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Animo Tech Pvt. Ltd. from any third-party claims arising out of your misuse of Caret, your breach of these Terms, or any actions Caret performs at your instruction that violate applicable law or third-party rights.

14. Governing law & disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute arising under these Terms will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Bengaluru, Karnataka, India.

15. Changes

We may update these Terms as Caret evolves. Material changes will be communicated to active users by email or in-app notice at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of Caret after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
