Terms

The rules for using this site, and the ones that apply if you buy something through Builder Mode. Written to be read rather than skimmed past — the sections that decide what happens when a build stops, or who owns the code, are the short ones.

Who these terms are with

“We” and “us” mean Gzuru Pty Ltd (ACN 623 110 216) trading as Too Many Startups, the company that operates toomanystartups.app. The same company also trades as Can AI Copy It and as ADFO; if you have dealt with either, you have dealt with us.

Using the site means accepting these terms. If you buy something, the section for that thing applies on top of them — and a written scope we have both agreed takes precedence over anything general said here.

Notices to us go to hello@adfo.com.au. Notices to you go to the address on your account or your payment. Either is effective when sent, unless it bounces.

Using the site

Most of this site is a directory: startups, their categories, and what the people behind them say about them. Entries are compiled from public sources and from what founders tell us. We try to keep them accurate and we will get some wrong — an entry is a description, not a recommendation, and nothing here is investment advice.

You may read, link to and quote the site. You may not scrape it wholesale, resell it, or pass it off as your own. Automated access that degrades the service for other people is not permitted.

Accounts and usernames

Sign-in is handled by AuthRobo, a separate service, under its own terms. Keep your access to that account secure; anything done through it is treated as done by you.

A username is a name you hold on this site, not property you own. Names the site needs for its own pages are reserved and cannot be claimed. We may reclaim a username that impersonates somebody, that was registered to resell, or that a court or a trade-mark owner establishes a better right to — and where we do, we will tell you and give you a chance to move.

You can stop using the account at any time. Ask us and we will delete it and what it holds, except anything we are required to keep — payment records, principally.

What you list

When you list a startup as one you founded or own, that listing is published: its name, site, category, stage and the description you wrote. Your watchlist is not published, and neither is your to-do list. That split is deliberate and we intend to keep it.

You keep everything you submit. You give us permission to store it and to display it on the site, which is what listing it is for. You confirm you have the right to submit it, and that a claim of involvement you make is true. A verified badge means we checked; an unverified listing is your word, presented as such.

We may remove or decline a listing that is false, infringing, or somebody else’s company claimed as yours.

The Prompt Pack

US$99, paid once. You get access to a private repository, and updates to it at no further cost. If the price changes it changes for new buyers, not for you.

It is a licence to use, for you and the people you work with. It is not a licence to republish or resell it. Because access is granted immediately, it is not refundable once granted — a cost we would rather state than dress up.

Builds

The MVP at US$5,000 and the Full Build at US$10,000 are fixed-scope work agreed in writing before anything starts. Prices are for one platform; each additional platform is priced on the tier’s page. What is in the scope is what is quoted. Anything outside it is a new piece of work at a new price, not an assumption.

The clock starts at kickoff — when the brief, the materials and any access we need are all in — and not when you paid. Delays in getting those to us move the finish date. The stated windows of 5 working days from kickoff and 2 weeks from kickoff are working estimates given a responsive client, not guaranteed delivery dates.

Who owns it

On final payment, the deliverable and its source code are yours, outright. Work happens in a repository you can see from the first commit. Anything we brought with us — pre-existing tooling, libraries, generic scaffolding — stays ours and is licensed to you for use in the deliverable. Third-party services, hosting and licences are billed to you and are subject to their own terms.

Stopping

Before kickoff you can cancel for a full refund. After kickoff, work already performed is not refunded — it has been done, and the slot it used was one nobody else could have. If you stop a build partway you keep everything finished to that point, the repository and the deployment included, and we do not invoice for the rest.

We may decline or stop a job we cannot do well. Where we do, unperformed work is refunded.

That is a change-of-mind rule, not a disclaimer of the section below. If work is not delivered with due care and skill, or is not fit for what you told us it was for, the Australian Consumer Law gives you a remedy that no term here can remove.

Payment

Builds are booked with 50% up front. The deposit reserves a build slot; the balance falls due at handover, when the repository transfers and the work goes live. The Prompt Pack is paid in full because there is no delivery gap to bridge.

Prices are in US dollars unless stated otherwise, and every price on the site says so. Payments are processed by Stripe under its terms; card details never reach this site. Where Stripe shows you a converted amount in your own currency, that conversion is Stripe’s and the settled amount is ours. Taxes are calculated at checkout where they apply, and you are responsible for any tax that applies where you are.

Your rights under Australian Consumer Law

Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. For major failures you are entitled to a replacement or refund, and to compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss. You are also entitled to have goods repaired or replaced if they are not of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies those rights. Where a guarantee applies and the law allows us to limit our liability, we limit it to resupplying the service or paying the cost of having it resupplied.

Liability

Subject to the section above, and to the extent the law permits: we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, lost profits, lost data or lost opportunity; and our total liability for anything arising out of these terms is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

The site is provided as it is. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, or that every entry in the directory is accurate.

Changes

We may change these terms. The version and date at the top of this page say which set is current. Changes apply from when they are published, and never retroactively to work already scoped or paid for — that keeps running on the version you agreed to.

Law

These terms are governed by the law of Queensland, Australia, which is where the company is, and the courts there have non-exclusive jurisdiction. Non-exclusive so that a dispute does not have to be brought across the country to be brought at all.
