1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using HyperHat ("the Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use our services. These terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and HyperHat.
2. Description of Service
HyperHat is an engineering intelligence platform for software teams. We provide isolated simulation environments and telemetry so engineering leads can measure, baseline, and standardize how developers steer AI agents — without touching production code. The Platform includes timed assessments completed in HyperHat Studio (an in-browser IDE), scoring and session reports, optional paid deep-dive features such as session playback unlock, and related product tools we make available over time.
3. User Accounts
3.1 Registration: You must create an account to use most features. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration.
3.2 Account Security: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities under your account.
3.3 Product Changes: Features may change, be limited, or be withdrawn at any time as we improve the Platform. We may offer preview or beta features that are experimental and subject to additional notices.
4. Assessments and Paid Features
4.1 Assessments: Assessment availability, roles, scoring methods, and report content may change as we improve the product. Scores and insights are informational tools for skill and workflow evaluation; they are not employment guarantees or professional certifications.
4.2 Fees: Some features — such as unlocking session playback or other deep-dive report tools — may require payment. Prices and availability are shown at checkout. Paid purchases are generally non-refundable except where required by law or where we state otherwise at the time of purchase.
4.3 Payment Processing: Payments are processed by third-party providers (such as Stripe). Their terms and privacy policies apply to payment data they handle.
4.4 No Guarantees: The Platform is provided on an "as is" basis. We do not guarantee particular assessment outcomes, employment opportunities, or any specific result from using HyperHat.
5. HyperHat Studio
HyperHat Studio is our standardized in-browser IDE used for assessments and simulations. When you use Studio, we may record session telemetry — including prompts, tool usage, code edits, previews, verification signals, and related workflow events — to score sessions, generate reports, support playback, and improve the product. Additional notices may appear within Studio. Simulations run in isolated sandboxes and are not intended to connect to your production repositories.
6. Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to:
- Use the Platform for any illegal or unauthorized purpose
- Submit content that infringes intellectual property or other rights
- Engage in fraud, manipulation, or deceptive practices
- Attempt to circumvent assessment scoring, sandbox isolation, or security measures
- Share assessment answers or undermine the integrity of simulations
- Use automated systems to access the Platform without permission
- Harass, threaten, or abuse other users or HyperHat staff
- Post malicious code, viruses, or harmful content
- Create multiple accounts to manipulate scores or the system
7. Intellectual Property
7.1 Platform IP: HyperHat and its content, features, assessment materials, and functionality are owned by HyperHat and protected by intellectual property laws.
7.2 User Content: You retain ownership of content you submit. By submitting content, you grant HyperHat a license to use, display, and process it as necessary to operate and improve the Platform, including scoring, reporting, and product development.
8. Limitation of Liability
HyperHat provides the Platform "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Platform. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid to us in the past 12 months, or zero if you have not paid us.
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless HyperHat, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of the Platform or violation of these terms.
10. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account at any time for violations of these terms or for any other reason at our discretion. You may close your account at any time through your account settings.
11. Changes to Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. We will notify users of material changes via email or Platform notification. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
12. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Delaware or through binding arbitration, at our election.
