ThinkCrest AI Terms of Service

ThinkCrest AI Terms of Service Agreement

Effective Date: July 10, 2025

Welcome to ThinkCrest AI ("we," "us," or "our"), an AI automation agency located at 1010 W University Ave, Urbana, IL 61801, United States. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our artificial intelligence software, services, websites, applications, and related offerings (collectively, the "Services"). By engaging with our Services, you ("you," "User," or "Customer") agree to be bound by these Terms, which form a legally binding agreement between you and ThinkCrest AI. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use our Services.


1. Acceptance of Terms

By booking an appointment, agreeing to a scope of work ("SOW"), or using our Services, you confirm that:

  • You are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

  • If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

  • You have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and any applicable SOW.

Note: There is no user account creation system for our Services. Engagement is initiated through direct communication and agreement on a scope of work.


2. Description of Services

ThinkCrest AI provides AI-driven solutions, including but not limited to machine learning tools, data analytics, generative AI, custom AI integrations, and appointment-based automation services. Services may be delivered via web-based platforms, mobile applications, on-premise installations, or scheduled appointments, as defined in your SOW or service agreement.


3. Fees and Payment Structure

You will engage in one of two available payment structures depending on the number of leads and project scope, which will be determined during your initial consultation call and confirmed in your SOW:

a. Option 1: Installation + Monthly Upkeep

  • A one-time, non-refundable installation fee is required for setup and configuration.

  • A monthly upkeep fee is charged on the anniversary date of installation to maintain access to the Services.

  • Fee amounts will be outlined in your SOW.

b. Option 2: Pay-by-Appointment

  • For appointment-based engagements, you will pay an agreed-upon fee per appointment booked per week.

  • Appointment fees are invoiced weekly on Fridays for appointments booked during that week (Monday through Sunday).

  • All fees and expectations will be specified in your SOW.

Important: You may only operate under one payment model at a time—either Installation + Monthly Upkeep or Pay-by-Appointment, as determined by the number of leads you provide. The model used will depend on the scope and scale of your project as discussed during your consultation call.
