Terms of service

Draft, last updated October 3, 2026

These terms cover your use of labwren.com, the LabWren workspace, and LabWren Desktop. LabWren is operated by Nicholas Foster, an individual, until it is incorporated as a company. By using LabWren you agree to these terms. If you use it for a lab or an employer, you confirm you may agree on their behalf.

LabWren is an early alpha. It is free, it may change or stop, and the tools it builds must be checked before you rely on them.

1. Who can use LabWren

You must be 18 or older. Some features need an access code we give you; please keep it to yourself.

2. Generated tools need checking

An AI model writes the tools LabWren gives you. They can be wrong, even when they look right and even when LabWren’s own checks pass. Before you use a tool’s results in an experiment, a paper, or a decision, check it against values you know are correct.

The verification panel, the independent review, and the Methods text are aids, not guarantees. LabWren is not for medical, diagnostic, clinical, or regulated (for example GxP) use.

3. Your content

You keep all rights to what you type, upload, and build. You give us permission to process it to provide LabWren: to send it to our AI model provider, to store what the privacy policy says we store, and to show a shared tool to people who have its link.

We do not use your content to train models. Please do not submit confidential, unpublished, or personal data during the alpha; use synthetic or published data.

4. Acceptable use

  • Do not break the law or anyone else’s rights with LabWren.
  • Do not try to get around the access code, rate limits, or the sandbox that generated tools run in.
  • Do not use LabWren to build malware or to attack other systems.
  • Do not resell access to LabWren or overload it with automated requests.

5. Price

LabWren is free during the alpha. There are no fees and nothing to cancel. If we introduce paid plans, we will show the price, any taxes, and a refund policy before you pay, and these terms will be updated first.

6. Availability and changes

We may change, pause, or end LabWren or any feature, and we may suspend access that breaks these terms. We make no promise of uptime during the alpha. Keep your own copies of tools you rely on: download them, since the browser library lives only on your device.

7. No warranty

LabWren and every tool it produces are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement, to the extent the law allows.

8. Limits on liability

To the extent the law allows, the operator of LabWren is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data, results, or profits, arising from your use of LabWren or of a tool it produced. Because LabWren is free, total liability for any claim is limited to US$100.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

10. Changes to these terms and contact

We will post changes on this page and update the date at the top; for a significant change we will also tell you in the app. Questions: hello@labwren.com.
