1. Who we are
WireEngine is provided by [LEGAL ENTITY NAME] (“WireEngine”, “we”, “us”), reachable at support@wireengine.ai. These terms govern your use of the WireEngine website (wireengine.ai) and the WireEngine app (app.wireengine.ai), together “the service”. By creating an account or using the service you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy.
2. What WireEngine is — and is not
WireEngine is ABYC-referenced design assistance with explicit open items. You describe your vessel’s electrical system; the service records it, checks it against the rules it encodes, computes what can be computed from the inputs you give it, and produces documents (wiring schedule, drawings, bill of materials, checklist, manual and others) that list what is still open.
WireEngine is not:
- a certification, inspection or approval of compliance with ABYC standards or any other standard, code or regulation. No document produced by the service states that a design is compliant, and none should be read that way;
- a substitute for a qualified marine electrician or marine surveyor. Electrical work on a vessel can cause fire, injury, death and sinking. Have every design reviewed, and every installation carried out or inspected, by a qualified professional;
- a guarantee that the rules it checks are complete. The service checks only the rules it encodes, says which checks could not be run, and marks every value that is unconfirmed. A design with no reported issue may still contain defects the service does not check for.
Every document the service produces carries this statement: “ABYC-referenced design assistance with explicit open items — not a certification of compliance and not a substitute for a qualified marine electrician or surveyor. Not affiliated with ABYC.” You agree not to remove it from any document you pass to someone else.
Professional users. If you use WireEngine in the course of a business (for example as a marine electrician, boat builder or yard), you remain solely responsible for the work you design, install, certify or hand to your clients, and for any professional standards, licences and insurance that apply to it.
3. Your account
- You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live) to create an account.
- Keep your password secure; you are responsible for activity under your account. Tell us promptly at support@wireengine.ai if you believe it has been compromised.
- Give us an email address you control. We use it to verify your account, reset your password and send service messages.
- When you accept these terms and the Privacy Policy we record the version and the time of your acceptance.
4. Plans, payment and refunds
The plans, what each includes and its price are shown on our pricing page at the time you buy. Payments are processed by Stripe; we do not see or store your full card number. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; you can cancel at any time and keep access until the end of the period you paid for. Refunds are governed by our Refund Policy, which does not limit any right you have under consumer law where you live.
The Free plan exports documents marked as drafts not for installation. We may change prices for future periods with at least 30 days’ notice by email.
5. Your content
“Your content” means what you put into the service: project and vessel data, measurements, photos, manuals you upload, maintenance records, inventory and messages to the design assistant. You own your content. You grant us a limited licence to store, process, display and transmit it only as needed to run the service for you (including sending it to the processors listed in the Privacy Policy) and to keep backups.
- You confirm you have the right to upload what you upload — in particular, manufacturer manuals you add to a project.
- You can export your account data and delete projects or your whole account at any time; see the Retention and Deletion Policy.
- We do not sell your content. We do not use it to train AI models.
- If you share a saved template with another WireEngine account, that account can start projects from it; a project started from your template is that account’s own copy, and revoking the share does not remove projects already created.
6. The design assistant (AI features)
Some features use a large language model provided by Anthropic: turning a written description into candidate designs, the design chat, the troubleshooting assistant and identifying equipment from a photo. When you use one of these features, the text, photo and project context it needs are sent to Anthropic to produce a response (see the Privacy Policy). Nothing is sent to Anthropic unless you use an AI feature.
The service is built so that the model never sets a safety value: wire gauges, fuse ratings, charge setpoints, pinouts, configuration commands and baud rates come only from a cited device record, the rule engine or you, and anything unconfirmed is marked as such. Even so, AI output can be wrong, incomplete or out of date. Treat the assistant’s words as suggestions, check them against the cited source, and do not rely on them as professional advice.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- present a WireEngine document as a certificate of compliance, a survey or an inspection, or remove or alter its disclaimer, revision or open-item information before passing it to someone who will rely on it;
- upload content you do not have the right to share, including manuals or standards text whose licence forbids it, or content that is unlawful;
- try to access another account’s projects, probe or break the service’s security, or overload it (including automated scraping or excessive AI requests);
- use the service to build a competing product by copying its device records, rule tables or documents in bulk;
- use the AI features to generate content unrelated to the service, or to try to make the model produce safety values the service withholds;
- resell or share access to your account outside the seats you have paid for.
We may suspend or end access for a serious or repeated breach, telling you why unless the law or a security concern prevents it.
8. Standards and affiliations
WireEngine is not affiliated with or endorsed by the American Boat & Yacht Council (ABYC). References to ABYC standards and section numbers identify the requirement a check is based on. The service does not include, index or redistribute the text of any ABYC standard; its rule descriptions are short restatements in our own words. If you need the standard itself, obtain it from ABYC.
Manufacturer names and product names belong to their owners and are used only to identify equipment. Device facts carry a citation to the document they came from; confirm them against your own equipment’s documentation.
9. RV projects (preview)
RV and camper-van projects are a preview. They are checked against the same marine rules as boats; the service does not check RV standards (such as RVIA or NFPA 1192) or any road-vehicle regulation. Use RV documents only as a starting point for a qualified RV electrician.
10. No warranty
To the extent the law allows, the service is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant that any design or document is complete, correct, safe, or compliant with any standard, code or regulation, or that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free. Nothing in these terms excludes a warranty or right that cannot be excluded under the consumer law that applies to you.
11. Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential loss, or for loss arising from installing, energising or relying on a design without the review of a qualified professional. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to [the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim — to be confirmed by counsel]. Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or any other liability that cannot be limited by law.
12. Ending the agreement
You can stop using the service and delete your account at any time from account settings. Deleting the account deletes your data as described in the Retention and Deletion Policy. We may end the service on at least 60 days’ notice, during which you can export your data.
13. Changes
We may update these terms. For a material change we will tell you by email or in the app before it takes effect, and ask you to accept the new version; the version and date are shown at the top of this page.
14. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of [JURISDICTION — to be confirmed by counsel]. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of the country where you live, and may bring a claim in its courts.
