Terms and Conditions

Porter is a record-keeping and coordination tool. It stores what your team enters about where a vehicle is parked and who moved it. That is all it does.

Porter is expressly NOT:

• a security system, alarm, immobilizer, or anti-theft device;
• a GPS, telematics, or real-time vehicle location service;
• a guard service, custodian, or bailee of any vehicle;
• an insurer, warranty, or guarantee of any kind;
• a source of legal, safety, compliance, or financial advice.

Porter's data is only as accurate as the entries your staff make. A record in Porter is not proof that a vehicle is, was, or will be at any location.

Accounts are created by Auto AI or by your dealership owner/admin through invitation. There is no public self-serve signup. You must be at least 18 and authorized by your dealership. You are responsible for the accuracy of information you enter, for the actions taken under your login, and for keeping your credentials confidential. Notify us immediately at info@autoai.inc if you suspect unauthorized access.

• Do not use Porter unlawfully or to violate anyone's rights.
• Do not probe, scan, penetration-test, or attempt to breach the service.
• Do not reverse engineer, scrape, resell, or white-label the service.
• Do not upload malware, or data you have no right to upload.
• Do not use Porter as the sole control for any safety-critical or security-critical process.

Subscriptions are billed per dealership rooftop at the rate agreed with Auto AI. Access is activated and maintained manually by Auto AI. Fees are non-refundable except where required by law. We may suspend access for non-payment.

Auto AI and its developer Vimeverse own all rights in the Porter software, design, and documentation. Your dealership owns the operational data it enters and grants us a license to host, process, and display it in order to run the service.

PORTER IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AUTO AI DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT PORTER WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR THAT ANY LOCATION RECORD IS CORRECT OR CURRENT.

You expressly acknowledge and agree that Auto AI is not responsible or liable, in any amount, for:

• vehicles that are stolen, taken, or removed without authorization;
• vehicles that are lost, misplaced, misparked, or cannot be located;
• accidents, collisions, injuries, death, or property damage occurring during any move, test drive, delivery, or lot operation;
• vehicle damage, vandalism, weather damage, towing, or impoundment;
• incorrect, missing, delayed, or deleted location records or hang-tag entries;
• staff error, misuse of the app, or reliance on any information shown in Porter;
• service downtime, data loss, sync failures, or scanning failures;
• security incidents, hacking, breach, credential theft, or unauthorized access to Porter or its vendors, whether or not foreseeable;
• lost sales, lost profits, lost inventory, business interruption, or reputational harm.

Physical custody, security, insurance, and safe operation of every vehicle remain entirely the dealership's responsibility. Porter is a convenience tool that helps your team communicate. It never replaces keys control, lot security, camera systems, insurance coverage, or your own procedures.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AUTO AI, ITS OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, VENDORS, AND VIMEVERSE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF VEHICLES, PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR DATA, UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY.

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO PORTER IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOUR DEALERSHIP ACTUALLY PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100), WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release, waive, and forever discharge Auto AI, Inc., Vimeverse, and their owners, officers, employees, contractors, and vendors from any and all claims, demands, damages, actions, and causes of action — known or unknown, present or future — arising out of or relating to your use of Porter, including stolen, lost, or damaged vehicles, accidents, downtime, data inaccuracy, and security breaches or hacking.

You further covenant not to sue Auto AI or Vimeverse over any such claim, and you waive any statute or common-law rule limiting a general release to claims known at the time of the release (including California Civil Code §1542 and equivalents). This does not waive rights that cannot lawfully be waived, including claims for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud where applicable law prohibits waiver.

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Auto AI and Vimeverse from any third-party claim, loss, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of Porter, your data, your staff's actions, or your breach of these Terms.

Either party may terminate at any time. We may suspend or terminate access immediately for non-payment, abuse, security risk, or violation of these Terms. On termination your access ends; export your data before the retention window in the Privacy Policy expires.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law rules. Any dispute will be resolved by binding individual arbitration or, where arbitration is unavailable, in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to that jurisdiction. You waive any right to a jury trial and to participate in any class, collective, or representative action. Any claim must be brought within one (1) year after it arises or it is permanently barred.

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be posted here and announced to dealership owners. Continuing to use Porter after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force and the unenforceable part is narrowed to the minimum extent necessary. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These Terms, with the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, are the entire agreement between us. Questions: info@autoai.inc.
