1. About Bildr

Bildr is an AI-assisted project organisation and tracking platform for owner-builders undertaking residential construction projects in Australia. The platform is operated by Bildr Labs Pty Ltd (ACN 696 230 350, ABN 80 696 230 350), based in New South Wales, Australia (“we”, “us”, “our”).

By creating an account and using Bildr, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the platform.

2. Eligibility

  • You must be 18 years or older to use Bildr.
  • Bildr is designed for Australian residential builds. Its cost and compliance features use general Australian reference material and project information you provide. That material may be incomplete, simplified, or stale and must be independently verified.
  • The supported project scope is one residential owner-build, including a new house, knockdown rebuild, major renovation or extension. Commercial, duplex, multi-unit and secondary-dwelling projects are not accepted.
  • Use of Bildr for international construction projects is outside the intended scope of the platform.

3. Subscriptions and Payments

  • Bildr's current founding offer (the first 50 customers who successfully claim it at checkout) is $699 inc. GST for setup and the first 30 days, then $149/month inc. GST from day 31. Future offers and pricing have not been set and will be published before subscriptions reopen.
  • All prices are in Australian Dollars (AUD) and inclusive of GST.
  • The first five Walkthrough questions are available without payment once per account. Factory Reset removes project data but does not renew free-use allowances.
  • Each account and subscription includes one active build project. To replace it, use Factory Reset. Running another project at the same time requires a separate account and subscription.
  • The optional Premium Project Pack costs $99 inc. GST as a one-time purchase. It is a manually prepared, structured and branded PDF and Excel export. We email it by 5:00 pm Australia/Sydney on the next NSW business day after cleared payment; NSW statewide public holidays are excluded. When cleared payment is processed, Bildr captures a fixed copy of the project records included in the order. Changes made after that time are not included. If we miss the promised time, we will refund the $99 charge unless you agree to a revised delivery date. This remedy is in addition to, and does not limit, rights under the Australian Consumer Law. The free raw JSON export remains available separately.
  • Payments are processed via Stripe. We do not store your full payment card details.
  • Founding member pricing is available to the first 50 customers who successfully claim it at checkout. A cancellation, refund, or account deletion does not reopen that lifetime claim for a different customer. Once all 50 claims have been made, founding checkout closes. Any later offer and pricing will be published before new subscriptions reopen. The website counter is a cached availability indicator and can lag a completed checkout.
  • The current $149 monthly founding rate is not represented as a lifetime price lock. A change to an existing subscription applies only to future billing periods. We will give at least 30 days' email notice before an increase takes effect, and you may cancel without a cancellation fee before that increase.
  • Your monthly subscription renews automatically on the billing date displayed by Stripe at checkout and in the billing portal, at the price shown for your active plan ($149/month for the current founding offer until changed under the notice clause above). You will be charged automatically to the payment method on file.
  • You may cancel your subscription at any time via your dashboard (Account, then Manage Subscription, then Cancel Subscription) or by emailing billing@bildr.au. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You retain access until then and will not be charged again.
  • Cancelling your monthly subscription does not by itself entitle you to a refund of the one-time setup fee. Refunds and remedies remain available where required by the Australian Consumer Law or another applicable law.

4. Refunds and Consumer Rights

We do not offer a separate change-of-mind refund. You may cancel the recurring monthly subscription at any time to prevent future charges, with cancellation taking effect at the end of the current billing period.

If the service does not meet a consumer guarantee that applies under the Australian Consumer Law, you may be entitled to a remedy. Nothing in this section limits those non-excludable rights. Contact billing@bildr.au with the relevant account and transaction details so we can review your request.

5. Your Content and Data

You retain ownership of all information, plans, and data you upload to Bildr. By uploading content, you grant us a limited licence to process and store that content solely for the purpose of delivering the service to you.

We do not claim ownership of your build data or project information.

Automated systems and contracted service providers process your account and project data to deliver Bildr. Authorised personnel may access the minimum information reasonably needed for the following purposes:

  • Providing support or troubleshooting that you request
  • Preparing a Premium Project Pack that you order
  • Billing, refunds, complaints, disputes, and account administration
  • Security and incident response, or investigating suspected abuse or fraud
  • Operating, maintaining, testing, and repairing the service
  • Meeting legal obligations or responding to lawful requests

We do not routinely read unrelated project content. Human access is restricted to authorised personnel and the purpose that makes the access reasonably necessary, but it is not limited to situations where you provide separate written consent.

You can download a free raw JSON export of your account and project records immediately from Account settings. If you request the same raw export by emailing support@bildr.au, the five-NSW-business-day manual fulfilment period begins only after we receive a complete request and verify the account holder's identity. Uploaded binary files are not included in the JSON export; contact support if you also need copies of those files. Cancelling a subscription does not automatically delete account data. Use Delete Account in Account settings to start the active-system deletion workflow. Payment, security, legal, provider-log, and backup records may remain where required by law or under applicable provider retention and backup-rotation policies.

6. Model-Generated Content

Bildr uses Anthropic and OpenAI models to help read uploaded documents, organise project information, prepare planning estimates, compare quote scope, propose schedules and produce compliance prompts. This content is a general project aid only. It is not legal, financial, engineering, certifying, quantity-surveying or construction advice.

Model-generated figures, reference ranges and suggestions are based on the information you provide and the reference material available to the system. They are not live supplier prices and may be incomplete, stale or inapplicable to site-specific conditions. Confirm estimates with comparable current written quotes and confirm compliance requirements with the relevant authority or qualified professional.

You remain responsible for project decisions. Verify material figures and guidance with appropriate evidence and qualified professionals, including your certifier or council where relevant. Nothing in this section limits a right or remedy that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

7. Account Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You must not share your login details with third parties.

You must notify us immediately at support@bildr.au if you become aware of any unauthorised access to your account.

We are not liable for any loss arising from unauthorised use of your account where you have failed to maintain the security of your credentials.

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use Bildr for any unlawful purpose
  • Share your account credentials with third parties
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or extract data from the platform beyond your own project data
  • Use the platform to harm, defraud, or deceive others
  • Use automated tools (bots, scripts) to interact with the platform or its API
  • Upload malicious files, viruses, or content that could compromise the platform
  • Exceed fair-use limits on AI features (we reserve the right to throttle or suspend accounts that demonstrate abusive usage patterns)

9. Third-Party Services

Bildr relies on third-party services to operate, including:

  • Stripe: payment processing. Stripe's terms apply to payment transactions.
  • Anthropic: AI processing. Your project data and conversations are processed by Anthropic's models to deliver the service.
  • OpenAI: document extraction and analysis for uploaded plans and related files.
  • Supabase: database, file storage and authentication.
  • Vercel: application hosting and consent-gated traffic analytics.
  • Upstash: rate limiting and abuse protection.
  • Sentry: application error and performance telemetry.
  • Resend: transactional email delivery.

These services operate under their own terms and privacy practices, while we remain responsible for our obligations in selecting, configuring and using them. Availability or processing may be affected by a provider outage or change.

10. Service Availability

We maintain Bildr for ongoing use but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The service may be temporarily unavailable because of maintenance, updates or circumstances beyond our control.

We will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of planned maintenance. The current automated application health response is available at /api/health; it is not a full incident-status service.

11. Intellectual Property

Bildr, its design, software, AI systems, and content are owned by Bildr Labs Pty Ltd and protected by Australian and international intellectual property law. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our written consent.

12. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits a liability, consumer guarantee, right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Subject to that rule, our total liability for claims arising from Bildr is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss that was not reasonably foreseeable, or for construction loss caused by a third party, site condition, project decision or event outside our reasonable control. This does not exclude loss to the extent it was caused by our breach, negligence, fraud or wilful misconduct.

You acknowledge that Bildr is a planning and management tool, not a substitute for professional advice, and that construction projects carry inherent risks that software cannot eliminate.

13. Australian Consumer Law

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy conferred on you by the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other applicable law that cannot be excluded, restricted, or modified by agreement.

Consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law cannot be excluded. The remedy depends on the problem. A major service failure can give you cancellation and a refund for the unused portion, or compensation for reduced value. Compensation may also be available for other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.

For a failure that is not major, you can require us to fix the problem within a reasonable time. If we do not, further remedies can include cancelling the contract and receiving a refund for the unused portion.

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission provides general information about consumer rights and guarantees.

14. Dispute Resolution

If you have a complaint or dispute about the service, please contact us first at support@bildr.au. We will review the issue and work in good faith toward a resolution. Response and resolution times depend on the circumstances.

If we cannot resolve the dispute directly, either party may refer the matter to mediation before an agreed mediator, or to the relevant state or territory consumer tribunal or small claims court.

15. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will give reasonable notice of material changes and request renewed acceptance where required. Changes do not remove rights you already have, and a price change follows the notice process in Section 3. If you do not agree with a change, you may cancel before it takes effect.

16. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. Any disputes are subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales, without prejudice to any rights you may have to bring proceedings in your home jurisdiction.

17. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be severed and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

18. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you indemnify Bildr Labs Pty Ltd against a third-party claim, loss or reasonable legal cost to the extent it is directly caused by:

  • Your material breach of these Terms
  • Your unlawful use of the service
  • Content you upload where you did not have the right to provide it and that content infringes a third party's rights

This indemnity is reduced to the extent that our act or omission contributed to the claim or loss. It does not apply to our negligence, fraud, wilful misconduct, breach of these Terms or breach of a non-excludable consumer guarantee.

19. Account Suspension and Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account, with or without notice, if:

  • You materially breach these Terms
  • Your use of the platform poses a security risk or may cause harm to other users
  • We are required to do so by law
  • Your payment method fails and remains unresolved for more than 14 days

If we terminate your account for breach, fees are not refunded except where required by applicable law. If we terminate your account without cause, we will refund any prepaid fees for the unused portion of your subscription. Nothing in this paragraph limits non-excludable rights or remedies.

Before deleting your account, you may export available account and project records from Account settings. Subscription cancellation alone does not trigger automatic project-data deletion; use the Delete Account control or contact support if you want the account-deletion workflow started.

20. Force Majeure

Subject to non-excludable rights, we are not liable for a failure or delay caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, such as natural disaster, war, government action, widespread power or internet outage, third-party service failure or labour dispute. This does not excuse an obligation to the extent the failure was caused by our lack of reasonable care.

21. Service Updates

Bildr is actively maintained and improved. We may update the service as customer needs, regulations, and technology change. By using the platform, you acknowledge that:

  • Features may be added, changed, or removed over time. Material changes are subject to Section 15, and you can cancel without a cancellation fee if you do not agree
  • AI-generated content may contain errors or inaccuracies
  • Service availability may occasionally be affected by maintenance or third-party outages
  • We use customer feedback to prioritise improvements

None of the above limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

22. Waiver

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorised representative of Bildr Labs Pty Ltd.

23. Assignment

You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms to a successor entity in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, provided the successor agrees to be bound by these Terms.

24. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Bildr Labs Pty Ltd regarding your use of the platform and supersede all prior agreements, representations, and understandings.

25. Support

For account, billing, or technical support, email support@bildr.au or billing@bildr.au. We review messages and prioritise issues based on their impact. Response times may vary.

26. Feedback and Suggestions

If you voluntarily provide feedback, feature suggestions or ideas about the platform, you allow us to use and adapt that feedback to operate and improve Bildr without payment to you.

This does not apply to your personal data or project content, which remains subject to the Privacy Policy.

27. Survival

The following sections survive termination or expiry of these Terms: Section 5 (Your Content and Data, including data export rights), Section 6 (Model-Generated Content and disclaimers), Section 11 (Intellectual Property), Section 12 (Limitation of Liability), Section 13 (Australian Consumer Law), Section 14 (Dispute Resolution), Section 16 (Governing Law), Section 17 (Severability), Section 18 (Indemnification), Section 22 (Waiver), Section 24 (Entire Agreement), and this Section 27.

28. Notices

Formal legal notices to Bildr Labs Pty Ltd must be sent to support@bildr.au or by post to Bildr Labs Pty Ltd, PO Box 261, Hunters Hill NSW 2110, Australia.

We will send notices to the email address associated with your account. You are responsible for keeping that address current. Delivery and notice timing remains subject to any requirements under applicable law.

29. Relationship of Parties

Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, employment, or agency relationship between you and Bildr Labs Pty Ltd. Neither party has authority to bind the other or make representations on the other's behalf.
