05 · Pricing & Payment

Pricing and billing

STATUS: PRE-LAUNCH — PRICING TBD

ForemanBid is currently in pre-launch development. Specific pricing tiers, subscription terms, and billing cycles have not been finalized and will be published before the public App Store launch.

When billing is active, the following general terms will apply:

  • Subscription fees are charged in advance on a recurring basis (monthly or annually, as selected)
  • Payments are processed through Apple In-App Purchase or Stripe, depending on platform
  • Prices are in US Dollars and subject to applicable taxes
  • You may cancel your subscription at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period
  • Refunds are governed by Apple App Store policy for in-app purchases, or by our refund policy for direct billing
  • We reserve the right to change pricing with at least 30 days’ notice to current subscribers

Detailed pricing terms will be incorporated into these Terms when billing launches and will be clearly communicated in the app.


06 · Estimate Disclaimer

No warranty on estimate accuracy

IMPORTANT — READ CAREFULLY: ForemanBid is a software tool designed to help you draft construction estimates and bids. It is not a licensed engineer, contractor, or cost consultant. All estimates, material quantities, pricing data, and bid figures generated by or through the Service are drafts for your professional review only and must be independently verified before submission to any client.

Specifically, Ascentral makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, that:

  • Estimates produced by the Service are accurate, complete, or suitable for any particular project
  • Material pricing data is current, accurate, or reflective of prices available to you from any specific supplier
  • LiDAR scan measurements are accurate to any particular tolerance or suitable for use in formal architectural or engineering drawings
  • AI-generated line items reflect the correct scope of work for any given project
  • Building code or permit information is current, applicable, or complete for your jurisdiction

You are solely responsible for reviewing, verifying, and approving all estimates and bids before submitting them to clients. The Service is a productivity aid. Professional judgment, site-specific assessment, and compliance with all applicable licensing and construction laws remain your responsibility.

Ascentral is not liable for any loss, dispute, underbid, overbid, project cost overrun, or client claim arising from your use of or reliance on any estimate, measurement, price, or bid generated through the Service.


07 · Intellectual Property

Ascentral’s intellectual property

The Service, including its software, design, user interface, text, graphics, icons, and the ForemanBid name and logo, is owned by Ascentral LLC and is protected by US and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use any Ascentral trademark, service mark, or trade name. Feedback, suggestions, or ideas you voluntarily submit about the Service may be used by Ascentral without compensation or attribution.


08 · Third-Party Services

Third-party integrations

The Service integrates with third-party platforms including Apple iCloud, Sentry, Stripe, Vercel, and supplier pricing APIs. Use of these integrations is subject to the terms and privacy policies of those providers, which are outside Ascentral’s control.

The Service may also contain links to third-party websites or resources. Ascentral is not responsible for the content, availability, or practices of any third-party site or service.


09 · Disclaimers

Warranty disclaimer

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ASCENTRAL DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

  • IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT
  • WARRANTIES THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES
  • WARRANTIES REGARDING THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY CONTENT OR DATA PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICE
  • WARRANTIES THAT THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR SPECIFIC BUSINESS OR PROJECT REQUIREMENTS

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain implied warranties. In those jurisdictions, the above exclusions apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.


10 · Liability

Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ASCENTRAL, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR:

These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory under which damages are sought (contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise), and even if Ascentral has been advised of the possibility of such damages.


11 · Indemnification

12 · Termination

Termination and suspension

By you: You may terminate your account at any time by deleting the app and requesting account deletion through the in-app settings or by emailing us at itsgianni@gmail.com.

By Ascentral: We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms, engaged in fraudulent activity, or for any other reason at our sole discretion. We will generally attempt to provide reasonable notice except where immediate action is required to protect the Service or other users.

Upon termination, your license to use the Service ends immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including User Content, Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability, Governing Law, and Dispute Resolution) will survive.

Following termination, we will delete your account data in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Your project files stored in iCloud Drive under your Apple ID remain yours and are not affected by account termination.


13 · Governing Law

Governing law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions.

If you are a consumer located in the European Union, you may also have rights under the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence, which these Terms do not affect.


14 · Dispute Resolution

Arbitration and dispute resolution

Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights.

Informal resolution first

Before initiating any formal dispute, you agree to contact us at itsgianni@gmail.com and give us 30 days to resolve the issue informally.

Binding arbitration

If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, you and Ascentral agree to resolve it through binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. Arbitration will be conducted in Denver, Colorado, or by video conference if the parties agree.

Class action waiver

YOU AND ASCENTRAL AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

Exceptions

The following claims are excluded from arbitration and may be brought in state or federal courts in Denver, Colorado:

  • Claims for injunctive or other equitable relief to protect intellectual property rights
  • Small claims court actions within applicable jurisdictional limits

If the class action waiver above is found unenforceable for any claim, that claim must be litigated in court rather than in arbitration.


15 · General

General provisions

Entire agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Ascentral regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force.

Waiver

Ascentral’s failure to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that provision or of any other provision.

Assignment

You may not assign these Terms or any rights hereunder without Ascentral’s prior written consent. Ascentral may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

Force majeure

Ascentral is not liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, internet outages, or third-party service failures.
