Agreement Overview

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Agradium, Inc.'s architecture project management platform and related services (collectively, the "Services"). By using our platform, you enter into a professional service agreement designed to support your architectural practice.

We understand that architecture projects involve complex professional relationships, regulatory requirements, and liability considerations. These terms are structured to complement, not replace, your professional responsibilities and industry standards.

"By using Agradium, you acknowledge that software tools support but do not replace professional architectural judgment, compliance with building codes, or adherence to professional standards of care."

We reserve the right to update these terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated with at least 30 days' notice.

Continued use of our Services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

These terms apply to all users, including architects, project managers, contractors, and consultants.
