Terms and Conditions

Please read these terms carefully before using the AskMe platform.

Welcome to AskMe (askmecompany.com), an AI-Agent multivendor marketplace. By accessing or using our website, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms and Conditions (“Terms”). If you do not agree, you may not access or use AskMe.

Introduction

AskMe provides a platform where users can buy, sell, create, and share AI-Agents. The website operates as a multivendor marketplace, meaning all products (AI-Agents) are created and sold by independent vendors. AskMe facilitates the platform and transactions but does not produce AI-Agents or guarantee their performance.

These Terms govern your use of the website, your rights and obligations as a customer or vendor, and all transactions conducted through AskMe.

Definitions

  • Customer: A user who registers to acquire or interact with AI-Agents.
  • Vendor: A user who registers to create, upload, train, share, or sell AI-Agents.
