Terms

Last updated 22 August 2026

The agreement between us and you, the creator. It covers what the subscription buys, what you may publish, who owns what, and what happens when something goes wrong.

1. Who this is between

These terms are between Naween Ahsan (we, us) of 150 Graydon Hall Drive, Toronto, Ontario M3A 3B1, Canada, and you, the person or organisation with an account (you, the creator). By creating an account you accept them.

You must be at least 18 and able to enter a contract. If you are accepting on behalf of a company, you are confirming you may bind it.

2. What the service is

You describe an application. We use an AI model to generate one, host it for you, and give you the means to charge your own customers for access to it. You may attach your own domain.

Generated code is not guaranteed to be correct. It is produced by a model, and it can be wrong, insecure, or unsuitable for what you intend. You are responsible for reviewing what you publish. Do not use it for anything where a defect would be dangerous — medical, financial, legal or safety-critical purposes — unless you have had it independently reviewed.

3. Accounts

Keep your password to yourself; anything done from your account is treated as done by you. Tell us promptly at hello@ownshop.app if you think somebody else has access. One person or organisation per account, and accounts are not transferable without our agreement.

4. Subscription, allowance and trial

What it costs

The Creator plan is $20 per month, charged in advance, and renews automatically until cancelled.

What it includes

Each billing month includes $5 of build time, measured by what the underlying model usage actually costs. Publishing, hosting, custom domains and taking payments are not metered.

  • The allowance runs with your billing month and does not carry over.
  • When it runs out, building stops until the month renews. Your published apps stay online and keep taking payments.
  • Builds already running when the allowance ends are stopped rather than completed.
  • Model prices change. If that materially changes how far the allowance goes, we will tell you before it takes effect.

Free accounts

An account without a subscription costs nothing. You can sign in, keep published apps online, take payments and read your dashboard. You cannot build, because building spends real money on your behalf.

The trial

New subscriptions include 14 days free. Stripe collects a card before the trial starts. Cancel before it ends and you are not charged. Trials are one per creator, and we may withdraw a trial we believe is being farmed.

Cancelling and refunds

Cancel at any time from your account; it takes effect at the end of the period you have paid for, and you keep access until then.

We do not refund part-months: cancelling part-way through a period ends the renewal rather than refunding the days you have not used. Your statutory rights are unaffected and we honour them — if the law where you live gives you a right to cancel and be refunded, you have it, whatever this paragraph says. The trial exists so that you can decide whether the service is for you before paying anything at all.

We may change prices with 30 days’ notice. If you do not accept a change you may cancel before it takes effect.

5. Your apps and your customers

Apps you publish are yours, and so are the people who use them.

  • You are the seller. Payments from your customers go to your Stripe account, and you are the merchant of record for them.
  • Your relationship with your customers is yours: their terms, their refunds, their support, their complaints.
  • You must have a privacy notice and terms for your app. We generate a starting version with each app; reviewing and adapting them is your responsibility, not ours.
  • If your app collects personal data, you are the controller of it. We process it only to host the app for you.
  • You must comply with Stripe's own rules for your account.

We currently take no share of what you charge your customers. If that changes, creators already selling get 30 days’ notice before it applies to them.

6. What you may not publish

This turns a sentence into a hosted, installable app with a payment system, on our infrastructure. That makes a small number of rules necessary. You may not use it to build or publish anything that:

  • impersonates a real person, business, bank or public body, or collects credentials or payment details under a false identity;
  • is unlawful, or infringes somebody else's intellectual property or privacy;
  • harasses, or sexualises children, or incites violence;
  • distributes malware, or exists to attack or gain unauthorised access to other systems;
  • sells something you cannot lawfully sell, or is a front for laundering payments;
  • circumvents the limits of the service, including automating account creation or evading the allowance.

We screen at the moment of publishing rather than while you build, since building is private and publishing is what makes something reachable by a stranger. We may refuse to publish, take an app offline, or close an account that breaks these rules. Where we can, we will tell you why first — but we may act immediately where there is a risk of harm or of legal exposure.

Report abuse to hello@ownshop.app.

7. Who owns what

You own your apps — what you write, what you upload, and the code generated for you. We claim no ownership of it, and you can export it at any time.

You grant us the licence we need to run the service for you: to store, copy, modify, and publicly serve your content for hosting, backup and support, for as long as your account exists. Nothing more.

We own the builder — the platform, its interface and its tooling. Generated code may resemble what the same model produces for someone else; we cannot promise it is unique, and neither of us owns the other's output.

8. Availability

We work to keep the service running and we monitor it, but we do not offer a service level guarantee. It may be unavailable for maintenance, for a fault, or because something we depend on has failed.

We do not offer service credits or refunds for downtime. If an outage is long enough to matter to you, cancelling is the remedy.

9. Ending it

You may close your account at any time. We may suspend or close an account that breaks section 6, that does not pay, or where we are required to.

When an account closes, published apps go offline and stored content is deleted, subject to what our privacy notice says about backups. Export anything you want to keep first. We will give 30 days’ notice where we are closing an account for a reason other than serious misuse.

10. Liability

Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited — and nothing here removes the statutory rights of a consumer.

Otherwise: the service is provided as it is; we are not liable for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or losses arising from apps you published or from what a model generated; and our total liability in any twelve months is limited to the fees you paid us in the preceding twelve months.

You are responsible for the apps you publish, and you agree to cover us against claims brought by your customers or by third parties arising from them. This section needs qualified legal review.

11. Changes to these terms

We may change these terms. We will update the date at the top, and tell account holders by email when a change is significant. Continuing to use the service after a change means accepting it; if you do not accept it, cancel.

12. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply in it, and the courts of Ontario have jurisdiction — except that a consumer keeps any right they have to bring proceedings where they live, and keeps the protection of the consumer law there.

If a clause turns out to be unenforceable, the rest stands.
