This Service Agreement contains the terms and conditions (the “Terms”) that govern the Services. The Client shall only provide access to the Services (as defined below) to authorized representatives who will be deemed to be acting on behalf of the Client. In the Terms, “the Client”, "you" and "your" will collectively refer to the Client and its authorized representatives. Neural Leap reserves the right to make non-material updates to this Agreement.
AI Engineering Subscription Plans: Neural Leap provides premium on-demand and fully managed AI engineering services. Depending on the number of subscriptions you have with us that will determine the number of AI Engineering Managers and AI Engineers assigned to you.
The Client is entitled to upgrade the Plan during the Agreement Term. Downgrades and changes from one Plan to another Plan are only permitted from the next Agreement Term with a minimum thirty (30) days prior notice in writing. Such notices should be issued in writing to the AI Engineering Manager assigned to you. You are not allowed to pause a Plan. Notice to pause the Plan may be treated as notice of termination of such Plan. Changes that come into effect will continue to remain in effect for the following Agreement Term unless the notice explicitly states otherwise.
Both parties must maintain clear and open communication regarding any delays, problems, or issues arising during the project. Recognizing the client's limited technical expertise, it is agreed that the client cannot be held responsible for errors made by the developer. If the client is dissatisfied due to a technical issue attributable to the developer, the onus lies on the developer to rectify the problem without incurring additional costs for the client. If the issue proves insurmountable and significantly impacts the final product agreed upon by both parties, the client retains the right to terminate the agreement without liability for any associated hours. This will remain in effect for the specified project duration and applies to both parties and their respective successors, representatives, and assigns.
It is expressly agreed that the initially agreed-upon fees outlined in this agreement shall remain unchanged once both parties have signed, providing stability and predictability in financial commitments. Any alterations to the agreed-upon pricing necessitate written consent from both parties to ensure transparency and mutual agreement. This shall remain in effect for a specified duration and binds the parties and their respective successors, representatives, and assigns.
Both parties commit to open and transparent discussions, acknowledging that clear communication is vital to resolving any potential issues and reaching a fair resolution. This will remain in effect for the agreed project duration and binds both parties, including their successors, representatives, and assigns.
The Agreement Term Amount will be automatically charged on the renewal date with the payment method on file, in accordance with the Billing Frequency, while this Agreement remains in effect.
Payment can be made with credit or debit card. The payment currency is USD. If any outstanding amount is more than thirty (30) days overdue from Payment Terms, Neural Leap reserves the right to charge 1.5% interest per month on the outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower, plus all expenses of collection. Such outstanding amounts may be sent to a Debt Collection agency. You shall be responsible for all taxes associated with Services other than U.S. taxes based on Neural Leaps net income.
Neural Leap reserves the right to put Services on hold or terminate the Agreement with immediate effect should any outstanding amount be more than thirty (30)days overdue. Where Services are put on hold due to overdue outstanding amounts,
Neural Leap shall be considered to be fulfilling the Service obligations in accordance with this Agreement and the Client will not be entitled to any relief for such action. Where the Agreement is terminated in accordance with this paragraph, the Client shall remain liable for all fees up until date of termination, plus any Overage fees incurred. The fees for the then-current Agreement Term Amount shall be prorated for the period up until date of such termination.
The following applies to Clients who choose to use a Credit card as their payment method.

Stripe may make a temporary $1 charge to credit cards added to your Neural Leap account. Any such charges are refunded after your credit card has been verified. The refund may take up to several business days depending on your bank or credit card service. Should you wish to use a Credit Card as a payment method, you hereby authorize Neural Leap to run, or have run, credit card authorizations on all credit cards provided by you, to store credit card details as your method of payment for Services, and to charge your credit card (or any other form of payment authorized by Neural Leap or mutually agreed to between you and Neural Leap).
