Terms of Service
Last Updated: November 1, 2025
Welcome to benchmarkAI and the benchmarkAI.app website. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the benchmarkAI.app website and any related services (collectively, the “Site”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not use or access the Site. We encourage you to read these Terms carefully. This is a legally binding agreement between you and CFO AI, Inc. (the “Company”).
For your convenience, we have organized these Terms into sections with headings. However, you should read the Terms in their entirety as all provisions are important and together create the agreement that applies to you.
1. Acceptance of Terms and Eligibility
Acceptance
By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to abide by these Terms, as well as our Privacy Policy (which is incorporated herein by reference). If you do not agree to these Terms or the Privacy Policy, please discontinue use of the Site.
Eligibility
The Site is offered free of charge and is intended for users who are at least 16 years old. By using the Site, you represent and warrant that you are 16 years of age or older and capable of entering into a binding contract in your jurisdiction. If you are under 16 (or under the age of legal consent where you live), you must not use this Site. CFO AI, Inc. does not knowingly allow children or minors under these ages to create accounts (we currently have no user accounts) or to subscribe to our services. If you are using the Site on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these Terms for that organization and promising that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify or update these Terms at any time at our sole discretion. If we make material changes, we will post the revised Terms on this page and update the “Last Updated” date. Changes are effective immediately upon posting. We may also provide additional notice (such as a banner on the website or an email notification) for significant changes. Your continued use of the Site after updated Terms are posted constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you should stop using the Site.
2. Site Description and Informational Purposes
About benchmarkAI.app
benchmarkAI.app is a platform that provides information, data, and analysis related to AI-generated market and investing research. All content on the Site, including articles, datasets, charts, results, and any interactive tools, is provided for general informational and research purposes only. The content is not professional advice and should not be relied upon as such. benchmarkAI.app is an educational resource intended to help users explore and understand AI performance metrics and related topics, but it is not tailored to any specific person's situation or objectives.
No Investment or Financial Advice
While the information on the Site may involve discussions of technical performance, trends, or hypothetical scenarios, nothing on this Site constitutes or should be construed as investment advice, financial advice, or trading advice. We are not a registered investment advisor, broker-dealer, or financial planner. All information provided is of a general nature and for research/educational purposes only, and it does not constitute investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any securities or make any financial decisions. You agree that you will not treat any Site content as a substitute for professional financial advice. CFO AI, Inc. makes no representations or warranties that any data or insights provided will result in particular outcomes or profit. If you need financial or investment advice, you should consult with a licensed financial advisor or other qualified professional.
No Other Professional Advice
Similarly, no content on the Site is intended as legal, accounting, medical, or any other professional advice. Always seek the guidance of the appropriate professional for advice on those matters. The Site may present information in areas related to technology or industry trends, but such information is not a substitute for professional advice specific to your circumstances.
Use at Your Own Risk
Any decisions or actions you take based on information on the Site are taken at your own risk. CFO AI, Inc. will not be responsible for the consequences of any actions you undertake in reliance on the information provided. By using the Site, you acknowledge that any reliance on the content is solely at your own discretion and risk. If you use data or results from our research for any purpose (academic, investment-related, etc.), you are solely responsible for verifying its accuracy and suitability.
3. Informational Accuracy and Disclaimers
No Warranty of Accuracy
CFO AI, Inc. strives to provide accurate and up-to-date information. However, we do not guarantee the completeness, accuracy, or reliability of any content on the Site. The information and materials on the Site could include technical inaccuracies, typographical errors, or omissions. Data presented (including AI model performance metrics or other analytics) may be based on experiments or third-party sources that could have errors. All content is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind. This means we make no promises that:
- The information is correct, timely, or complete
- The Site will be available uninterrupted or error-free
- Any defects will be corrected
- The Site will be free of viruses or other harmful components
Technical Issues and Availability
The Site is a web-based service that may occasionally experience downtime, maintenance outages, or other technical issues. We do not warrant that the Site will be available at all times, or that it will be free from bugs or vulnerabilities. benchmarkAI.app is continuously evolving, and new experimental features might be introduced that are not fully tested. Use caution with any results or output. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time (temporarily or permanently) without notice, and we will not be liable if the Site or any content is unavailable for any period.
External Data and Forward-Looking Statements
Some content on benchmarkAI.app may reference external datasets, third-party research, or future projections about technology. We will attempt to cite sources and provide context, but we cannot guarantee the accuracy of third-party information. Any forward-looking statements (predictions or expectations about future performance of AI models, for example) are inherently uncertain. Actual outcomes may differ materially from what is expressed or implied in forward-looking content. CFO AI, Inc. has no obligation to update any forward-looking statements or research findings if new information comes to light, though we may do so as part of our ongoing research.
User Responsibility
You agree that you must evaluate and bear all risks associated with your use of any content on the Site. Any reliance on the material is at your own risk. CFO AI, Inc. disclaims all liability and responsibility for any errors or omissions in the content, or for any results obtained from the use of that information. If you spot an error or have questions about the content, we encourage you to reach out, and we will attempt to correct verified errors in future updates.
No Endorsement
Reference to any specific products, processes, services, companies, or individuals (such as mentioning a particular AI model or library) does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by CFO AI, Inc. Opinions expressed are subject to change without notice and may reflect personal views of the researchers, which are not binding on the Company as a whole.
4. Use of the Site and User Conduct
We grant you a limited, revocable license to use the Site for your personal, non-commercial use in compliance with these Terms. You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of or restrict or inhibit the use and enjoyment of the Site by any other party.
Prohibited Conduct
In using CFO AI, you agree NOT to:
Violate Laws or Regulations

Scraping and Automated Access
You agree not to use any robot, spider, crawler, scraper, script, or other automated means to access the Site or extract data, except for standard search engine indexing or non-malicious APIs explicitly provided by CFO AI (if any). This is to protect our content and ensure the service is not overburdened. Systematic retrieval of data or other content from the Site, whether to create a collection, compilation, database, or directory, without written permission, is prohibited.

Do not impersonate CFO AI or its personnel, or falsely claim or imply you are associated with us. Similarly, do not misrepresent your identity or affiliation when communicating with us or other users.
Spam and Unwanted Solicitations
You may not use the Site to transmit any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, junk mail, spam, chain letters, or any other form of solicitation.
Harassment or Disruption
Do not use the Site to harass, threaten, abuse, or harm others. You also agree not to engage in any conduct that, in our judgment, restricts or inhibits any other person from using or enjoying the Site. You may not use the Site in a manner that could damage, disable, or impair our services or networks.
Collect Personal Data of Others
As a general rule, you must not harvest, scrape, or collect personally identifiable information of other users or third parties from the Site without proper authority.
Bypass Measures
Do not bypass or circumvent measures we may use to prevent or restrict access to the Site (such as attempting to access parts of the Site not intended for public use, or using tools to mask the origin of access).
Violating any of the above rules constitutes grounds for termination of your right to use the Site, as detailed in Section 10 below. We reserve the right to take appropriate legal action for any illegal or unauthorized use of the Site.
5. Intellectual Property Rights
Ownership of Content
The Site and all content and materials therein are the property of CFO AI, Inc. or its content suppliers and are protected by intellectual property laws. This includes but is not limited to all text, data compilations, graphics, logos, charts, code, software, documentation, audio/video materials, and design elements on the Site. All content on this Site is the property of CFO AI, Inc. and may not be reproduced, distributed, or used for commercial purposes without our prior written permission.
benchmarkAI.app Name and Logo
“CFO AI” and our logos, slogans, and any brand features are trademarks or service marks of CFO AI, Inc. (whether registered or unregistered). You are not granted any right or license to use any CFO AI trademarks by these Terms. You must not use our marks in any manner that is likely to cause confusion about the source of any product or service, or in any way that disparages or discredits CFO AI, Inc.
Permitted Use of Content
You may print or download extracts of content from the Site for your own personal, non-commercial research or educational use, provided that you do not remove any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices from the materials. If you wish to share our research or data with others (for example, in a blog post or academic paper), we ask that you properly attribute benchmarkAI.app as the source. For clarity: personal and academic sharing (with attribution) is generally allowed, but you may not republish our content in bulk, sell it, or create derivative databases from it without permission.
User Contributions
At present, our Site does not offer the ability for users to post content (such as comments, forums, or uploads). If in the future we enable features that allow you to submit content (like user-contributed benchmark results, comments, or other materials), any content you submit would remain your intellectual property, but you would grant CFO AI, Inc. a license to display and use that content on the Site. We would provide specific terms at that time governing user submissions. In any case, you must ensure that any content you might submit is your own or that you have all necessary rights to share it, and that it does not infringe the rights of any third parties or violate any laws.
Third-Party Content
The Site may include content or integrations that are owned by third parties (for example, third-party library code, or embedded content, or references to third-party research). Such content is usually accompanied by attribution to the third-party owner. Third-party content is used under license or fair use, and all respective rights remain with those third parties. You must respect those rights. For instance, if we display a snippet of a research paper or a chart from another source, you should not assume you have rights to reuse that snippet beyond what the original source allows.
Feedback
If you provide us with any suggestions, ideas, or feedback about the Site (“Feedback”), you acknowledge that we can use and share such Feedback for any purpose without compensation to you. Any Feedback you submit is entirely voluntary, and we are free to implement or not implement it as we see fit.
Reservation of Rights
All rights not expressly granted to you in these Terms are reserved by CFO AI, Inc. and its licensors. No licenses are granted by implication or estoppel.
6. Third-Party Links and Services
The Site may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by CFO AI, Inc. (for example, links to research papers, external data sources, or tools). These links are provided for convenience or reference only. CFO AI, Inc. does not endorse and is not responsible for the content, products, services, or practices of any third-party websites that may be linked to from our Site.
If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to an external website that is not under our control. Any information you provide on those third-party sites is governed by their own terms and privacy policies, not CFO AI's. We strongly encourage you to review the terms of use and privacy policies of any third-party websites or services that you visit.
CFO AI, Inc. disclaims any liability for any harm or damages that may arise from your visiting or use of third-party sites. This includes any issues arising from downloads (like malware) or transactions you enter into with a third party. Any dealings you have with third parties found while using the Site are between you and the third party, and you agree that CFO AI, Inc. is not liable for any loss or claim you may have against a third party.
7. Disclaimer of Warranties
Use at Your Own Risk
CFO AI, Inc. provides the Site and all content “as is” and “as available” to the fullest extent permitted by law. We expressly disclaim all warranties of any kind – whether express, implied, or statutory – regarding the Site and its content. This includes, but is not limited to, any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and any warranties that may arise from course of dealing or usage of trade. We also make no warranty that the Site will meet your requirements or expectations, or that it will achieve any intended results.
No Guarantee of Error-Free Service
CFO AI, Inc. does not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, or that any defects will be corrected. We do not warrant that the data or content provided will be free from mistakes, inaccuracies, or omissions. To the extent information on the Site is based on simulations or experimental research, you acknowledge that such results do not come with any warranty of performance or outcome in real-world usage.
No Liability for Data Issues
We make no guarantees about the quality or accuracy of data sets or code available through the Site. Any downloadable materials are provided without warranty that they are free of viruses or contamination. You are responsible for implementing safeguards (like anti-virus software and backing up data) to protect your own systems and for using industry-recognized software to detect and disinfect viruses from any download.
Beta Features
If we label any part of the Site or any feature as “beta,” “experimental,” or similar, that portion is provided without any warranties whatsoever. Beta features may be significantly less reliable than other parts of the Site and may be changed or removed at any time.
Jurisdictional Note
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitations on applicable statutory rights of a consumer, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you. In such cases, the exclusions and limitations will apply to the greatest extent permitted by law.
In summary, CFO AI, Inc. makes no warranties or conditions, express or implied, regarding the Site. You assume all responsibility and risk for your use of the Site and your reliance on any information provided.
8. Limitation of Liability
No Consequential Damages
To the maximum extent permitted by law, CFO AI, Inc. (and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates) shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages that result from your use of (or inability to use) the Site or from any content on the Site. This includes, for example, damages for lost profits, lost data, loss of goodwill, business interruption, accuracy of results, or computer failure or malfunction, even if we have been advised of or should have known of the possibility of such damages.
Cap on Direct Damages
To the extent we are found liable for any claim arising out of these Terms or your use of the Site, our aggregate liability to you for all claims shall not exceed fifty U.S. dollars (USD $50.00). Because the Site is provided to you for free, and given the informational nature of the service, this limitation is intended to fairly allocate risk between you and us. This cap on liability applies to all causes of action, in the aggregate, including, without limitation, to breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligence, strict liability, misrepresentations, or any other tort or statutory claims.
Release of Claims
You agree not to hold CFO AI, Inc. responsible for any damages, losses, or harm arising out of or related to your use of the Site, including any disputes between users or between users and third parties. If you have a dispute with any third party (for example, a provider of a product or service we link to), you release CFO AI, Inc. and its affiliates from all claims, demands, and damages of every kind arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
Exceptions
Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for any liability which cannot be excluded or limited by law, such as liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or for personal injury or death caused by our gross negligence. However, in jurisdictions where liability can be limited, our liability is limited to the lowest amount legally permitted.
Use of Information
CFO AI, Inc. specifically disclaims any liability for any actions taken based on the information presented on the Site. We are not liable for any investment decisions made on the basis of Site content – as stated, the content is not advice and should not be relied upon for such decisions. You alone are responsible for evaluating the merits and risks associated with using any information on the Site. By using the Site, you agree that CFO AI, Inc. will not be liable for any claim for any damages caused by your reliance on Site information.
It is your responsibility to ensure that you use our Site in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and that you assume the full cost of any maintenance, repair, or corrections to any equipment you use to access the Site.
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CFO AI, Inc., its parent, affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising out of or in any way connected with:
Your breach of these Terms:
If you violate any provision of these Terms, or any representation or warranty you provide herein is inaccurate, and as a result, a claim is brought against us, you will be responsible for the costs and damages.Your use of the Site:
This includes any use by you of the Site's content for purposes outside the scope of these Terms, or any activity related to your account or your usage of the Site (e.g., any negligent or wrongful conduct by you or any other person accessing the Site using your internet connection or devices).Your violation of any law or rights of a third party:
For instance, if through your use of the Site you defame someone, infringe someone's intellectual property rights, or violate privacy rights, and we are sued as a result, you will indemnify the Indemnified Parties.
We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (without limiting your indemnification obligations with respect to that matter). In such case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of those claims and not to settle any such matter without our prior written consent.
This indemnification provision will survive any termination of your use of the Site or these Terms.
10. Termination
Right to Terminate
These Terms are effective unless and until terminated by either you or CFO AI, Inc. You may discontinue use of the Site at any time. We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your access to the Site (or certain features of the Site) at any time, with or without notice, for any reason in our sole discretion. For example, we may suspend or terminate your use if we believe you have violated these Terms, if you engage in behavior that is unlawful or that interferes with other users or the operation of the Site, or if we decide to discontinue the Site or any portion thereof.
Effect of Termination
Upon termination of your right to use the Site, your license to use Site content and any rights granted to you in these Terms will immediately end. The provisions of these Terms which by their nature should survive termination (such as intellectual property rights, disclaimers of warranties, indemnities, and limitations of liability, governing law, etc.) shall survive any termination.
No Access to Data
If we terminate access and you had provided data (like an email subscription), we may in our discretion delete your data or retain it as required by law or our data retention policies (see Privacy Policy for how data is handled). You will no longer receive any further communications from us if your access (or subscription) is terminated, except as required to fulfill legal obligations.
Withdrawal of Service
CFO AI, Inc. also reserves the right to discontinue the Site or any portion of it at any time (either on a temporary or permanent basis). In such an event, these Terms would also terminate as to the discontinued service, but the remaining sections would survive as appropriate. We are not liable to you or any third party for any termination or suspension of the Site or your access to it.
11. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
Governing Law
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without giving effect to any conflict of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. We choose Delaware law because CFO AI, Inc. is incorporated in Delaware and it provides a consistent legal framework favorable for contractual interpretations.
Jurisdiction and Venue
Subject to the arbitration clause (if any) below, you and CFO AI, Inc. agree that any judicial proceeding to resolve claims relating to these Terms or the Site will be brought in the federal or state courts of Delaware. Both you and CFO AI, Inc. consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in Delaware, and you hereby waive any objections to the jurisdiction of such courts (including any objections based on inconvenience).
(If you are accessing the Site from outside the United States, be aware that you are voluntarily subjecting yourself to the jurisdiction of the United States and Delaware by using the Site and agreeing to these Terms.)
Arbitration (If Applicable)
At this time, we have not instituted a mandatory arbitration clause in these Terms. However, we reserve the right to include an arbitration agreement in the future. In the absence of an arbitration provision, you or we may seek resolution of disputes in court as stated above. We are open to resolving any issues through informal discussions first; if you have a concern, we encourage reaching an amicable solution before resorting to formal legal action.
Exception – Injunctive Relief
Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek interim or injunctive relief (such as a court order to stop misuse of intellectual property or confidential information) in any appropriate court.
Time Limit to Bring Claims
To the extent permitted by law, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Site or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or else it will be permanently barred. (This does not apply to claims of intellectual property infringement or statutory rights that by law cannot be limited.)
12. Miscellaneous Provisions
Entire Agreement
These Terms (along with the Privacy Policy and any other legal notices we have published on the Site) constitute the entire agreement between you and CFO AI, Inc. concerning your use of the Site, and supersede any prior agreements, negotiations, or communications (whether oral or written) between you and us regarding the subject matter hereof. Any additional or different terms in any order, written or oral communication from you are void. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any representation, warranty, or promise not expressly stated in these Terms.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect. In other words, the invalid part will be severed, and the rest of the Terms will remain valid and enforceable.
Waiver
No failure or delay by CFO AI, Inc. in exercising any right, power, or remedy under these Terms shall operate as a waiver of that right or remedy, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or remedy by CFO AI, Inc. preclude any further exercise of that right or remedy. A waiver of compliance in one instance does not mean that we will waive compliance in the future. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by an authorized representative of CFO AI, Inc.
Assignment
You may not assign or transfer any of your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, or by operation of law or otherwise. These Terms will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
No Third-Party Beneficiaries
These Terms are for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, the parties only. These Terms do not create any third-party beneficiary rights in any individual or entity that is not a party to these Terms.
