Moud — Terms of Service
Effective Date: August 22, 2026 · Last Updated: August 22, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern access to and use of Moud, an AI and developer infrastructure platform developed and operated by OpceanAI, a technology startup based in Mexico ("OpceanAI", "Moud", "we", "us", or "our").
Moud is made available through mound.opceanai.com, its APIs, applications, clients, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By creating an account, accessing the Service, or using any part of it, you agree to these Terms and the policies incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.
1. The Service
Moud provides a unified platform for AI and developer infrastructure. Depending on availability, the Service may include:
- AI model access and inference APIs;
- Moud-hosted models and AI services;
- third-party models and inference providers;
- OpenAI-compatible APIs and related interfaces;
- OCR, vision, embeddings, speech, search, and other AI services;
- BYOK integrations;
- Agents, Moonlight, and developer tooling;
- compute resources and temporary virtual machines;
- application deployment and managed DNS;
- Moud-managed subdomains;
- Channels and third-party integrations; and
- Community features, including Chat, Groups, Tips, Reviews, and Sharing.
The Service is continuously developed. We may add, remove, replace, restrict, or modify models, providers, endpoints, features, quotas, infrastructure, or regions without creating an obligation to maintain a particular configuration.
Features identified as beta, experimental, preview, or otherwise limited may be changed or withdrawn at any time.
2. Eligibility and Authority
You may use Moud only if you are legally capable of entering into these Terms under the laws applicable to you.
If you access Moud on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization. In that case, "you" includes that organization.
You are responsible for complying with laws and regulations applicable to your use of the Service.
3. Accounts
Certain features require an account.
You agree to provide accurate information and to keep account information reasonably current.
You are responsible for:
- maintaining the confidentiality of account credentials;
- controlling access to your account;
- activities performed through your account; and
- promptly notifying Moud of unauthorized access or credential compromise.
Unless Moud expressly permits otherwise, an individual may maintain only one free-tier account.
Bulk registration, account farming, quota farming, and creation of accounts for the purpose of circumventing Service limits are prohibited.
We may suspend or terminate accounts involved in fraud, abuse, security incidents, or violations of these Terms.
4. API Keys and Authentication
Moud may authenticate requests through API keys, OAuth, device authentication, session credentials, or other mechanisms.
API keys and similar credentials are confidential authentication information.
You must not:
- publish or expose credentials;
- share credentials with unauthorized persons;
- resell or sublicense access through your credentials;
- use another user's credentials;
- attempt to obtain credentials belonging to another account; or
- bypass authentication or authorization mechanisms.
Moud may revoke, rotate, or disable credentials where necessary to address compromise, abuse, fraud, security incidents, or operational risk.
5. Models and Providers
Moud may provide models operated by OpceanAI ("Moud Hosted Models") and models or services supplied by third parties ("Third-Party Models" or "Third-Party Services").
Third-Party Models may be subject to separate licenses, usage policies, geographic restrictions, commercial-use restrictions, retention policies, training policies, safety requirements, and other conditions.
The applicable terms of a model or provider govern your use of that model or provider's service where they impose requirements specific to it.
Moud does not represent that it owns or operates every model available through the Service.
A model or provider may be unavailable, replaced, restricted, or removed because of licensing requirements, provider decisions, infrastructure changes, security considerations, legal requirements, or other circumstances.
6. Moud Hosted and ZDR Services
Moud may host and operate selected models and AI services directly.
Certain services may be expressly designated ZDR (Zero Data Retention).
A service is ZDR only when Moud explicitly identifies it as such in the applicable product or service documentation.
For a designated ZDR service, Moud does not intentionally retain the submitted request content after processing is complete, except where temporary processing, security measures, abuse prevention, legal obligations, or another specifically disclosed operational necessity requires limited retention or processing.
ZDR is service-specific. It does not automatically apply to Third-Party Models, BYOK requests, Community features, Compute, Deployments, or other services.
7. BYOK
Moud may allow users to connect credentials issued by third-party providers through Bring Your Own Key ("BYOK").
You represent that you are authorized to use any credentials submitted through BYOK.
When BYOK is used:
- the relevant provider processes the request in accordance with its own policies;
- provider-side retention, logging, training, pricing, and availability are controlled by that provider;
- Moud cannot guarantee the policies or availability of an independent provider; and
- Moud will not intentionally expose your BYOK credentials to another user through supported functionality.
8. Usage Limits and Fair Use
Moud may enforce multiple limits simultaneously, including limits based on account, API key, IP address, model, provider, resource type, request volume, token consumption, or time.
Limits may be fixed or rolling and may vary by model or provider.
Examples include:
- requests per minute, hour, or day;
- token quotas;
- community pools;
- personal allocations;
- compute runtime;
- deployment limits;
- sharing limits; and
- abuse-prevention controls.
Published limits are operational limits, not guarantees of availability.
We may adjust limits in response to capacity, provider requirements, abuse, security incidents, or changes to the Service.
Attempts to circumvent or manipulate limits are prohibited.
9. Free Services and Credits
Moud may provide free models, API access, credits, compute, or other allocations.
Free access is provided subject to availability and applicable limits.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, free allocations:
- have no monetary value;
- are not redeemable for cash;
- are not transferable outside supported Moud functionality;
- may expire; and
- may be modified or discontinued.
Community-shared resources are subject to the rules displayed by the relevant sharing feature.
10. Compute, Agents, and Virtual Machines
Moud may provide temporary virtual machines, compute resources, Agents, and related infrastructure.
Where administrative or root access is provided, you are responsible for activity performed within the assigned environment.
You must not use Moud infrastructure to:
- attack third-party systems;
- conduct unauthorized scanning or penetration testing;
- distribute malware;
- perform denial-of-service activity;
- obtain unauthorized access;
- evade network restrictions; or
- interfere with other customers, users, providers, or Moud infrastructure.
Temporary resources may be subject to automatic expiration, suspension, reclamation, or destruction.
Moud does not guarantee recovery of data stored on temporary compute resources after termination or expiration.
11. Deployments and Managed Domains
Moud may provide deployment services and Moud-managed subdomains, including addresses under *.opceanai.com.
A requested name is subject to availability and naming restrictions.
You may not use a Moud-managed domain for phishing, fraud, malware, impersonation, unlawful content, or activity designed to evade enforcement.
We may suspend or reclaim a domain where reasonably necessary to protect users, the Service, or third parties.
You are responsible for applications, files, content, and services deployed through your account.
12. Community and User Content
Moud may provide Chat, Groups, Tips, Reviews, Sharing, and other Community features.
You retain rights in content you submit to the extent you possess those rights.
By submitting content to a Community feature, you grant Moud the limited rights necessary to host, transmit, display, moderate, and operate that feature.
Public content may be visible to other users and may be copied by third parties.
You must not publish content that violates applicable law, these Terms, the Acceptable Use Policy, or the rights of others.
13. Acceptable Use
Your use of Moud is subject to the Moud Acceptable Use Policy.
Without limiting that policy, you may not use Moud to:
- violate applicable law;
- facilitate fraud, phishing, credential theft, or unauthorized access;
- generate or distribute child sexual abuse material;
- distribute malware or ransomware;
- infringe intellectual property or privacy rights;
- attack, scan, or disrupt infrastructure without authorization;
- bypass authentication, quotas, rate limits, CAPTCHAs, or abuse controls;
- automate account or key farming;
- systematically harvest Moud traffic or infrastructure to operate a competing gateway without written permission;
- extract model weights, secrets, or provider credentials;
- impersonate Moud, OpceanAI, their personnel, or third-party organizations; or
- use Moud-managed domains for unlawful or abusive purposes.
14. Inputs and Outputs
You retain the rights you have in content submitted to the Service ("Input").
Moud does not claim ownership of your Input merely because you provide it to the Service.
Outputs generated by a model ("Output") may be subject to model-specific licenses and applicable law. Moud does not guarantee that Output is unique, accurate, lawful, or eligible for intellectual-property protection.
You are responsible for reviewing Output before using, publishing, or relying on it.
15. Intellectual Property
Moud software, documentation, interfaces, branding, trademarks, and proprietary infrastructure are owned by OpceanAI or its licensors.
Third-party models, model weights, names, trademarks, and related intellectual property remain subject to their respective rights and licenses.
These Terms do not transfer ownership of Moud software or third-party model weights.
16. Security
You must not circumvent Moud's security controls or access systems, accounts, credentials, or data that you are not authorized to access.
Good-faith vulnerability reports are encouraged through Moud's designated security or contact channels.
Unauthorized exploitation, persistence, credential extraction, or intentional disruption is prohibited.
17. Availability and Changes
The Service is provided on an "as available" basis.
Moud does not guarantee uninterrupted availability, specific performance, permanent model access, or fixed quotas.
We may perform maintenance, migrate infrastructure, change providers, modify routing, replace models, or suspend services when necessary.
18. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend or terminate access where reasonably necessary to:
- enforce these Terms;
- prevent fraud or abuse;
- protect users or infrastructure;
- address security incidents;
- comply with law; or
- comply with provider or licensing requirements.
You may stop using Moud at any time.
Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will remain effective.
19. Disclaimers
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.
MOUD DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR SUITABLE FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
20. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OPCEANAI AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, CONTRIBUTORS, MAINTAINERS, AND SERVICE OPERATORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE.
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
21. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these Terms as the Service, applicable law, or our operating practices change.
The revised version will include an updated "Last Updated" date. Where required by law, material changes will be communicated through an appropriate notice.
Your continued use of Moud after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms to the extent permitted by law.
