1. Agreement
Toolports is a sole proprietorship: an individual doing business as Toolports, not a corporation or limited-liability company. In these Terms, “Toolports,” “we,” and “us” mean that operator; “you” means the business that holds the account.
You accept these Terms by ticking the box when you create an account, when we ask you to accept updated Terms, or by connecting a port or calling a Toolports MCP endpoint. These Terms include the EULA and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
1A. Business use only
The service is for business and professional use only. By creating an account you confirm that you are at least 18, that you are acting for a business (including a sole proprietorship) and not as a consumer for personal, family or household purposes, and that you have authority to bind that business. “You” means that business and everyone who uses the service under its account.
2. The service
Toolports hosts ports: HTTPS MCP servers that connect an AI client you choose to a business system you authorize (“Connected Services”). QuickBooks Online at qbo.toolports.com is the first port. Other ports (including field-service tools such as Jobber) are offered under the same terms when they go live, except where a port page says otherwise.
We may change, suspend, or discontinue features, including early-access ports. We do not promise that a port implements every API of the Connected Service. Read-only is the default; writes are gated.
3. Access, keys and security
Our part. We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect your data, including encrypting stored OAuth tokens and hashing API keys. No system is perfectly secure, and we do not guarantee that unauthorized access will never happen. If we confirm a security incident that compromises your data, we will tell you without undue delay as the law requires.
Your part. API keys and OAuth grants work like passwords and apply to your whole organization. Keep them secret, store them only in agents and tools you trust, never put them in public code, prompts, logs, screenshots or URLs, limit them to people who need them, rotate them regularly and right away after any suspected exposure, and remove access for people who leave. All activity using your keys or grants is treated as yours until you revoke them, and you are responsible for it, including activity by anyone who got a key from you, your agent, your AI vendor, or your devices. Tell us promptly at hello@toolports.com if you suspect a key was compromised.
Sub-processors. We use service providers to run the service, currently Neon (database), DigitalOcean (port hosting), Vercel (website and dashboard), Stripe (billing) and Resend (email). The current list is in the Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for incidents at a Connected Service, your AI vendor, or your own systems.
Activity log. The activity log is a convenience. It may be incomplete or delayed, and it is kept only as long as the Privacy Policy says.
3A. Your users
You are responsible for everyone you let use your account, keys or agents (employees, contractors, bookkeepers, clients) and for their compliance with these Terms. You are also responsible for any notices or consents your own customers, vendors and employees need for their data to be processed.
4. Toolports is a connection only; you control your agents
(a) What we do. Toolports provides a technical connection (an MCP “port”) that passes requests from AI agents, apps and tools you choose (“Your Agents”) to third-party business apps you authorize (Connected Services). We do not create, run, train, control or supervise Your Agents, and we do not decide what any request does.
(b) You control and are responsible for Your Agents. Every request sent through your account, keys or OAuth grants is your instruction, whether a person wrote it, an AI model generated it, an automation triggered it, or content the agent read caused it. You alone are responsible for every action taken in a Connected Service through the service, including creating, changing, sending, paying, voiding or deleting bills, invoices, payments, journal entries, customers, vendors, emails and any other records, and for everything that follows from those actions.
(c) AI is unreliable. AI agents can misunderstand instructions, make up (“hallucinate”) data, pick the wrong tool, company, amount, date, account or recipient, repeat actions, or act without asking. Toolports does not check whether an agent’s request is correct, sensible, allowed by your internal policies, or what you meant.
(d) Instructions hidden in data (prompt injection). Data in your Connected Services or elsewhere (for example a vendor name, memo, email, attachment or web page) can contain text that makes an agent act in ways you did not intend. Preventing, spotting and reviewing this is your responsibility. Toolports is not responsible for actions caused by such content.
(e) Safety features help; they are not guarantees. Read-only defaults, write allowlists, confirmation steps, rate limits and activity logs are tools to help you manage risk. They may not catch every mistake, can be set up or bypassed by you or Your Agents (including an agent that supplies its own confirmation), and can fail. They do not move responsibility for any action to Toolports.
(f) No duty to monitor. We have no obligation to watch, review, block or reverse any request or action, and we cannot undo actions in a Connected Service.
(g) ASSUMPTION OF RISK. YOU KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY ASSUME ALL RISKS OF CONNECTING AI AGENTS TO YOUR BUSINESS SYSTEMS AND OF TURNING ON WRITE ACCESS, INCLUDING FINANCIAL LOSS, INCORRECT RECORDS, DUPLICATE OR MISSING PAYMENTS, TAX OR REPORTING ERRORS, AND MESSAGES SENT TO YOUR CUSTOMERS OR VENDORS.
4A. Your settings and approval of writes
You are responsible for:
- Choosing which agents, people and integrations get keys or OAuth access
- Which Connected Service companies you connect
- Whether writes are on, and which operations are on the allowlist
- Reviewing every confirmation request before you approve it
- Reviewing your Connected Service records and the activity log regularly, and correcting mistakes
- Keeping your own backups of Connected Service data
Turning on writes or approving a confirmation is your instruction to perform that action. When you turn on writes we ask you to confirm that you are responsible for your agents’ actions, and we keep a record of that confirmation. We recommend testing with read-only access or a sandbox company first, and keeping writes off for anything you cannot review.
5. Third-party services
(a) Connected Services (such as Intuit QuickBooks Online and Jobber), AI agents and model providers (such as Anthropic, OpenAI, xAI, Meta and Cursor) and other third-party products are not part of the service. Your agreements with those providers alone govern them, and Toolports is not responsible for them or for their availability, security, accuracy, pricing or conduct.
(b) You must have a valid account with each Connected Service, have the right to connect each company or account, and follow that provider’s terms, API limits and app policies. You remain responsible for your Connected Service accounts, users, permissions, subscriptions and data.
(c) Providers may change, limit, rate-limit or shut down their APIs, revoke our developer app, or change their terms at any time. Ports may stop working or lose features as a result, and Toolports is not liable for that. We may change or remove a port to meet a provider’s requirements.
(d) Provider-required terms. Where a provider requires us to pass terms on to you (for example under the Intuit Developer Terms), those terms are part of these Terms (see the Intuit Terms of Service for Intuit Developer Services) and you agree to them. Except as those terms require, Intuit, Jobber and other providers are not parties to these Terms and have no liability to you under them.
(e) Toolports is an independent developer, not affiliated with or endorsed by any provider. Names and marks belong to their owners. If a provider suspends our app or your connection, the port may stop until that is resolved.
(f) Connected accounts. Toolports is not liable for any Connected Service being unavailable, slow, changed or discontinued, for a provider revoking or limiting access, or for a Connected Service returning data that is wrong, incomplete, stale or duplicated, or for anything you or Your Agents do in reliance on that data.
6. Your data
As between us, you own your data, including your Connected Service content and files you upload to a port. You grant Toolports a limited license to host, transmit, and process that content only to provide the service, as described in the Privacy Policy. You confirm that you have all rights needed to submit it, including personal data of customers, vendors, and staff that appears in your books.
We do not sell your data and do not use your Connected Service content to train AI models. We may collect and use usage, performance and diagnostic data, and aggregated or de-identified data, to run, secure and improve the service.
(a) Your warranty. You represent and warrant that you own or have all rights, licenses, consents and authority needed to connect each Connected Service account, to submit your data, and to let Toolports and Your Agents process it as you instruct, and that doing so does not violate any law, contract or privacy notice. You are solely responsible for the accuracy, quality and legality of your data.
(b) Aggregated Data. We may compile aggregated and de-identified data about use of the service (such as call volumes, tool usage, error rates and performance) that does not identify you, your users or any individual (“Aggregated Data”). We own Aggregated Data and may use it for any lawful purpose, including to improve the service. Aggregated Data never includes your Connected Service content in identifiable form and is never used to train AI models on your data.
(c) Feedback. If you or your users send us suggestions, ideas or other feedback about the service (“Feedback”), we may use it freely without obligation to you. Feedback does not include your data.
Personal data we process for you is also covered by our Data Processing Addendum, which is part of these Terms; our subprocessors are listed on the Subprocessors page.
7. Acceptable use
Our Acceptable Use Policy is part of these Terms. In summary, you will not, and will not let Your Agents or anyone else:
- Break any law or third-party rights, or process data you have no right to
- Use the service for fraud, money laundering, sanctions evasion, unlawful payments or falsifying books
- Scrape, bulk-export or harvest data except as the Connected Service allows and for your own business
- Resell, sublicense, white-label, or provide the service to others (including as a service bureau, or for client companies you are not authorized to manage) without our written agreement
- Build a competing product, or run benchmarks for publication
- Reverse engineer, probe, overload, or get around write gates, allowlists, confirmations, rate limits or sign-in
- Share keys publicly, including in public repos, screenshots or query strings
- Send spam or unsolicited messages, or send customer email except through supported, confirmed operations
- Introduce malware
- Claim that Toolports audited, certified or approved your records
- Use the service where its failure could cause death, injury or severe environmental damage
8. Early access
Ports and the waitlist may be pre-release. Features can change, break, or disappear. Early access is provided as-is so you can evaluate the product. Keep writes off for production accounting until you have tested reads against the Connected Service.
8A. Availability, support and data
We aim to keep the service available, but we make no uptime commitment, offer no service credits and guarantee no support response time unless we agree to that in writing. We may do maintenance with or without notice. We are not a backup service. We may delete cached or log data under our retention policy, so keep your own records.
9. Fees, trial, rate limits and renewal
Toolports charges a flat monthly fee for each connection. A connection is one connected company or account at a supported provider. One organization can have more than one connection. Fees are not based on usage or the number of tool calls.
- Trial. New accounts get a 14-day free trial, which may have a call limit. When the trial ends or the limit is reached, ports pause until you subscribe. We may change or end trials for new users.
- Rate limits. We may set and change rate limits and usage caps to protect the service. Requests over a limit may be rejected or delayed.
- Automatic renewal. Paid plans renew automatically each month at the then-current price (currently $29 per month for your first connection and $10 per month for each additional one, plus any taxes) until you cancel. You can cancel anytime from Billing in your dashboard or by emailing hello@toolports.com. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We will give at least 30 days’ notice of a price change. Fees are non-refundable except where the law requires.
- Provider API fees, provider subscriptions, and AI-client costs are your responsibility.
10. Intellectual property
Toolports, the site, port software, and marks are ours or our licensors’. These Terms do not transfer ownership. Feedback you send may be used to improve the service without obligation. Connected Service names and logos belong to their owners.
11. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE, THE PORTS, THE SANDBOX, ALL DOCUMENTATION AND ALL OUTPUT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” “AS AVAILABLE,” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TOOLPORTS DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND ANY ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE; THAT DATA WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR PRESERVED; THAT ANY REQUEST WILL BE EXECUTED ONCE, IN ORDER, OR AT ALL; OR THAT THE SERVICE WILL WORK WITH ANY PARTICULAR AI AGENT OR CONNECTED SERVICE. WE MAKE NO WARRANTY ABOUT ANY AI AGENT OR CONNECTED SERVICE. NO SERVICE-LEVEL OR UPTIME COMMITMENT APPLIES UNLESS SIGNED IN A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT.
Output and agent actions. “Output” means any data, content, records, results or recommendations produced through the service by or for you or Your Agents, including data returned from a Connected Service. Output may be inaccurate, incomplete or out of date. The disclaimers above apply equally to every action Your Agents take through the service, including creating, changing, voiding, deleting, paying, sending or attaching anything in a Connected Service, whether or not a Toolports permission or confirm step was on. You are solely responsible for evaluating Output and agent actions before relying on them. See the AI Agent Disclaimer.
11A. No professional advice
Toolports does not give accounting, bookkeeping, tax, legal, payroll, financial or investment advice, and is not your accountant, bookkeeper, auditor, fiduciary or agent. Reports, summaries, categories and other output from the service or Your Agents are for information only and may be wrong or incomplete. You alone are responsible for your books, tax filings, financial statements and compliance, and should have them reviewed by a qualified professional. Do not rely on the service as a system of record; your Connected Service is the system of record.
12. Limitation of liability
(a) EXCLUDED DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TOOLPORTS AND ITS OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, SAVINGS, BUSINESS OR GOODWILL; LOSS, CORRUPTION OR INACCURACY OF DATA OR RECORDS; COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES; PAYMENTS SENT, DUPLICATED OR MISDIRECTED; TAX PENALTIES OR INTEREST; OR ANY LOSS CAUSED BY AN AI AGENT OR A CONNECTED SERVICE, HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF ADVISED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY.
(b) CAP. TOOLPORTS’ TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (i) THE FEES YOU ACTUALLY PAID TOOLPORTS FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE FIRST CLAIM, OR (ii) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100).
(c) More than one claim does not raise the cap. These limits apply even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose. They are an essential basis of the bargain, and our prices reflect them.
(d) Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including under California Civil Code §1668 for fraud, willful injury or gross negligence.
(e) Time limit. Any claim must be brought within one (1) year after it arises, or it is permanently barred, to the extent the law allows.
13. Indemnity
You will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Toolports and its owners, members, managers, employees and contractors from all third-party claims, and related losses, damages, fines, penalties, settlements, costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to:
- (a) any action or request made through your account, keys or grants, including by Your Agents;
- (b) your data and content, including personal data of your customers, vendors and employees, and your right to share it;
- (c) your Connected Service accounts and your compliance with their terms;
- (d) your employees, contractors, clients and others you allow to use the service or who are affected by actions you take with it;
- (e) your breach of these Terms or the law; or
- (f) your settings for writes, allowlists or confirmations.
We will tell you promptly about a claim (a delay only relieves you to the extent it harms your defense), let you control the defense, and reasonably cooperate at your cost. You may not settle a claim that admits fault by Toolports or puts obligations on Toolports without our written consent. We may join with our own lawyer at our own cost.
14. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or limit all or part of the service, any key, connection or write access, immediately and without liability, if we reasonably believe: (a) you breached these Terms or the acceptable use rules; (b) your account, keys or agents create a security, legal or operational risk, including a suspected compromise or unusual volume; (c) a provider requires it; (d) payment is overdue; or (e) the law requires it. We will try to tell you and to restore access once the issue is resolved.
These Terms last while you use the service. You may stop at any time and disconnect Connected Services. We may terminate access if you materially breach these Terms, if a provider requires it, or if we discontinue a port. After termination we delete or anonymize port data as described in the Privacy Policy, except where we must keep it.
14A. Survival
These sections survive termination or expiration: connection only and assumption of risk (4 and 4A), fees owed (9), your data licenses (6), intellectual property (10), disclaimers (11), no professional advice (11A), limitation of liability (12), indemnity (13), third-party services (5), the Data Processing Addendum, governing law and disputes and arbitration (15), and miscellaneous (17), plus any other term that by its nature should survive.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Informal resolution first: before filing any claim, the party must email a written description to the other (hello@toolports.com for us), and both will try in good faith to resolve it for 30 days.
Arbitration. Any dispute will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, before one arbitrator, seated in Orange County, California, under the Federal Arbitration Act. Either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court instead.
CLAIMS MAY BE BROUGHT ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If this waiver is found unenforceable for a claim, that claim goes to court, not arbitration, in the state and federal courts in Orange County, California, which both parties consent to. Either party may ask a court for an injunction to protect intellectual property or security. Nothing in this section waives a right to seek public injunctive relief that cannot be waived under California law; a court, not an arbitrator, decides any such request, after the individual claims are arbitrated.
Opting out. You may opt out of arbitration and the class-action waiver within 30 days of first accepting these Terms (or, for a material change to this section, within 30 days of our notice of that change) by emailing hello@toolports.com or writing by mail to 6316 San Andres Ave., Cypress, CA 90630. Your notice must include your full legal name, your organization, the email on your account, and a clear statement that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.
Fees. Each party bears its own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitrator finds a claim frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, or the law provides otherwise. If any part of this arbitration section is found invalid, it is modified to the minimum extent needed to be enforceable and the rest remains in effect.
16. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. We will post the new version with its effective date and, for material changes, give at least 15 days’ notice by email or in the app before they take effect. We may ask you to accept updated Terms to keep using the service. Using the service after the effective date means you accept them; if you do not agree, stop using the service and cancel. Changes do not apply to disputes already pending.
17. Miscellaneous
These Terms, the EULA, and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement for the service. If a term is unenforceable, the rest remains. You may not assign the agreement without our consent; we may assign it in a reorganization or sale. Failure to enforce a term is not a waiver.
- Force majeure. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including provider or cloud outages, internet failures, attacks, and acts of government.
- Notices. To us by mail to 6316 San Andres Ave., Cypress, CA 90630 and by email to hello@toolports.com; to you at your account email.
- Export. You will comply with U.S. export and sanctions laws.
- Independent parties. We are independent contractors; these Terms create no partnership, agency or employment.
- Order of precedence. A signed agreement, then these Terms, then the EULA, then documentation.
