Terms

Terms of use.

Draft — pending attorney review.

Plain-language draft terms for using ArkBM. They will be completed with counsel before they leave draft.

What ArkBM is

ArkBM is an advisory institution. It covers the business side of the world — the rules, prices, and conditions changing around a business — and prepares that as decision-ready work: evidence, context, and qualified views a business owner can act on or set aside.

What ArkBM is not

  • ArkBM is not legal, tax, investment, accounting, or insurance advice. For regulated questions, talk to a licensed professional.
  • A Position is ArkBM's qualified current view. It is not a green light, a forecast of success, or a decision made on your behalf.
  • ArkBM does not predict success and does not decide for you. AI prepares. You decide.

The free Desk and membership

  • The public Desk is free, and it is complete. Membership does not buy better facts; shared facts are the same for everyone.
  • Membership is intended to be approximately $27 per business per year, annual only. No payment flow is live yet; exact checkout terms still need approval.
  • Membership pays for keeping things: your saved Desk, your business context, your Decisions, and your watches.

What we ask of you

  • Place business context that is true, and keep your Desk code to yourself.
  • Treat published work as preparation for your judgment, not as a substitute for professional advice.
  • Do not use the Desk to harm, deceive, or break the law.

Responsibility

ArkBM stands behind its method: sources are shown, reviews are recorded, and corrections are public. Business outcomes belong to the business; ArkBM does not accept liability for the Decisions you make.

[Full limitation-of-liability and dispute language will be completed with counsel before these terms leave draft.]

Changes to these terms

Changes will be published with a version number and recorded in The Record.
