StarNet Terms of Use
Last updated: 2026-07-25.
StarNet is a free desktop application that runs AI agents on your own computer. By downloading, installing, or using StarNet, you agree to these terms. They are intentionally short.
Questions: androo.agi@gmail.com.
1. The app is provided "as is"
StarNet is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. This is an early build; it may contain bugs, may lose or corrupt data, and may stop working at any time. You use it at your own risk.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the author is not liable for any damages arising from your use of StarNet — including lost data, lost profits, provider charges you incurred, or actions taken by agents you ran.
2. Model costs — your own keys, or StarNet Credits
The StarNet app is free. Running models is not. There are two ways to pay for that, and you choose which.
Your own keys — the default, and free forever. StarNet uses your own AI provider accounts and API keys (or your own ChatGPT sign-in), and requests go straight from your machine to that provider. You are solely responsible for any charges, rate limits, quota usage, or account consequences those providers apply to you. On this path StarNet does not resell model access, adds no markup, and has no way to bill you. Set spending caps in your provider account and in StarNet's own budget controls; monitor your usage.
StarNet Credits — optional. You may instead buy StarNet Credits: a prepaid balance, sold as a monthly subscription or as one-off top-ups, that pays for model runs through StarNet's own gateway. On this path StarNet does resell model access — you are buying from us, at our price, and we pay the underlying provider. Credits are prepaid, denominated in US dollars, and the amount deducted for a run is the amount the app shows you for that run. Payments are processed by Stripe; StarNet never receives or stores your card details. Subscriptions renew monthly until you cancel, and you can cancel at any time from the billing portal — cancelling stops future renewals, and payments already made are non-refundable except where required by law. Monthly grants, rollover limits, and the post-cancellation grace period are set out on the pricing page, which forms part of these terms. Credits have no cash value, are not transferable, and cannot be redeemed for money. We may change credit pricing and grants for future billing periods; changes never apply retroactively to credits you already hold.
Credits are never required. Everything StarNet does works on your own keys, for free.
3. You are responsible for what your agents do
StarNet lets AI agents take real actions on your machine and, if you connect them, on external services (messaging channels, web fetches, connected tools). You are responsible for what your agents do — the tasks you give them, the permissions you grant, the tools you enable, and the results. Do not use StarNet to do anything unlawful, to violate the terms of any service you connect it to, or to harm others. You are responsible for complying with the terms of every third-party service and model provider you use through StarNet.
4. Not affiliated with providers
StarNet is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter, Google, Discord, Telegram, Spotify, or any other provider or platform it can connect to. All trademarks belong to their respective owners. Your use of any provider through StarNet is governed by that provider's own terms and privacy policy.
5. Updates and availability
StarNet may update itself through its built-in updater (see the install guide). We may change, suspend, or discontinue the app — or these terms — at any time. There is no guarantee of continued availability or support. Support is best-effort and offered by email only at androo.agi@gmail.com.
6. Privacy
See the privacy page. In short: StarNet runs locally, collects no telemetry, and your data stays on your machine except for the specific provider/channel/update requests described there. If you buy StarNet Credits, that adds a billing account and routes your model calls through our gateway — the privacy page sets out exactly what we hold and what we don't.
7. License
The StarNet source code is licensed under the MIT License; see the LICENSE file at the repository root. These terms cover use of the app; the MIT License governs the code itself.
