Lamar Blvd., Suite 210, Austin, Texas, 78756 (“Billd,” “we,” “us,” and “our”), is pleased to offer you (“Customer,” “you,” and “your”) critical construction contract insights using artificial intelligence powered by Document Crunch, Inc. (“Document Crunch”) (with such insights and any related or incidental documentation or services being collectively referred to herein as the “Services”).

Description of Services

The Services include providing you with critical insights into the important provisions contained in the construction contracts that you upload and submit for review within the Billd Portal (collectively, the “Contracts”). When you request the Services, Billd will provide Document Crunch with the associated Contracts, and Document Crunch will analyze the same and generate a summary of key provisions for you (each, a “Playbook”). Billd will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver each Playbook to you promptly after Document Crunch delivers the Playbook to Billd; provided, however, that Billd shall not be responsible for any delays in the delivery of the Playbooks. By using the Services, you represent and warrant to Billd, and agree, that the Services are for commercial use only and not for any family, household, or other personal purposes. By requesting the Services, you are also representing and warranting to us that each Contract is or forms a part of a bona fide construction contract for services rendered or to be rendered by Customer to the project identified in the Contract. We reserve the right to reject any request for Services that we determine, in our sole and absolute discretion, does not meet the foregoing requirements.

Payment

In consideration for the Services, you agree to pay the fees and charges posted in the Billd Portal and associated with the Services that you request from us. Such fees and charges will be electronically presented to you before you request the Services. To obtain the Services, you must provide us with a valid business credit card issued to the Customer by a bank or other financial institution located in the United States (the “Customer Credit Card”). The foregoing obligation includes providing Billd with the cardholder’s name, the card number, the expiration date, and the security code. You shall maintain the Customer Credit Card in effect so long as any payment obligations relating to the Services requested by you remain unpaid. By requesting the Services, you authorize Billd and/or its affiliate to initiate credit transactions against the Customer Credit Card to collect payment for the Services. Each such transaction shall be initiated upon delivery of the corresponding Playbook. All such transactions shall be initiated in conformance with applicable laws. You also authorize us to save your Customer Credit Card information so that we can initiate credit transactions from time to time to facilitate the provision of Services each time you request them from us. For the avoidance of doubt, Billd will not initiate a charge to the Customer Credit Card except as authorized by the foregoing or as otherwise expressly authorized by you. You agree to supply such additional information with respect to the foregoing as we may request from time to time.
