AI Harness Labs

Who these terms are between

PoolsiFi Technologies Inc. ("we") and you, whether you apply as a learner or post a project as a business. By applying, posting a project, paying, or using the course, you agree to these terms.

The agreements govern the programme. Learners accept the Intern Agreement, including the refund policy, when they apply. Businesses accept the Business Agreement when they post a project. A business and its intern sign the Mutual NDA on this site at matching. Where an agreement and these terms differ, the agreement wins. All of them are on the agreements page.

For learners

Applying is free. We review every application and decide whether to offer a place. We can decline an application without giving a reason.

The fee. If accepted, you pay $300 once. It covers the online course, the AI mentor, the AI review of your capstone, and one internship placement. Extra placements at other businesses are optional, each with its own fee and refund rules (Intern Agreement, clauses 4 and 6). Payment is taken by Stripe in US dollars. Refunds follow the refund policy: a full refund within 14 days of paying if you have not completed the second module, or if we cannot offer you an internship within 90 days of your capstone approval; no refund once an internship starts.

Starter (free). Starter is a free account. It needs no application and no payment, gives you module 1 and a preview lesson from every other module, and gives no right to an internship placement. A placement needs an application, our acceptance and the course fee. We may change what Starter includes, or close a Starter account that is misused.

The course is self-paced with no deadline. Course content is for your own learning; please do not copy or redistribute it.

The internship is unpaid, remote, and runs 1 to 3 months with a business we match you to. You keep the right to describe the project in your portfolio without the business's data. The business owns the code and the agent you build for it.

A job at the end is a chance, not a promise. We do not guarantee a placement date, a particular business, a hire, or a contract. We place trainees whose capstone works, in the order they finish, as suitable projects come in.

Conduct. Treat the business, its data, and its customers as you would want your own treated. Sign the business's NDA before you see anything, and follow it. We can end a placement for misconduct.

For businesses

Posting a project is free and creates no obligation until we have scoped it with you and you have agreed to the brief. We only take on problems that are real, scoped to 1 to 3 months, and safe to give to a trainee working with an AI mentor.

What we ask of you: up to an hour a month for each trainee, reading their weekly check-in and approving the work on your dashboard, and a short reference letter if the work was good.

The completion fee and the cap. We pay you $50 for each internship you complete with a written review of the intern's work, by bank transfer or PayPal within 30 days of completion. It is a programme fee for your time, not income we promise. You can have up to 5 active internships at a time. The Business Agreement has the details.

You own the result. The code and the agent run on accounts and systems you control. You may use, change and resell it. The trainee keeps the right to describe the project in their portfolio without your data.

Hiring. You may hire the trainee afterwards on any terms you agree with them. There is no placement fee and no exclusivity.

Stopping. You can stop at any time and keep whatever has been built so far. There is nothing to pay and nothing to cancel.

Accounts

You are responsible for the email account and Google account you use to sign in. Tell us if you think someone else has access.

Limits

We provide the course and the placement in good faith. We are not responsible for what a business does with the software, for outcomes of an internship, or for losses that are not a direct result of something we did wrong. Our total liability to anyone, under these terms and every agreement with us taken together, is limited to 25% of the amounts they paid us in the 3 months before the claim. If they paid us nothing in that time, we have no liability to them. This limit does not reduce a refund, completion fee or share we owe. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Governing law and disputes

A dispute about a programme, an internship or a retainer follows the agreement for it. Otherwise, for learners and anyone who applied or started free, these terms are governed by the laws of India and the steps below apply with arbitration seated at New Delhi; for businesses and everyone else, by the laws of Ontario and of Canada, with arbitration seated at Toronto.

Learners, applicants and Starter accounts

Any dispute between you and AI Harness Labs is resolved only this way:

Tell us in writing within 30 days of when you learned of what it is about, saying what happened and what you ask for.
Settle in good faith. We both have 30 days to settle it.
Online arbitration. If it is not settled, it goes to arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, before a sole arbitrator appointed by the Delhi International Arbitration Centre. The arbitration is held online, on written statements and documents unless the arbitrator decides a video hearing is needed, seated at New Delhi, India and conducted in English. The decision is final and binding.

If your claim is for no more than the fees you have paid us, we pay the arbitration centre's fees, so bringing it never costs you more than it is worth.

Neither side takes the other to court, except to enforce the arbitrator's decision or to ask a court to stop a breach of confidentiality at once. Claims are brought only individually, never as part of a group or class claim. Each side pays its own costs, but a side whose claim or defence the arbitrator finds groundless, or brought to harass, pays the other side's reasonable costs. The limits of liability in this agreement apply to any award.
