Terms of use

Effective: 2026-05-14.

Unibench is open-source software distributed under the MIT License (see LICENSE at the repository root once it lands). These terms supplement the license; the license is what governs your right to use, modify, and redistribute the code.

Plain version

  • You can use Unibench for anything you want.
  • It comes with no warranty. We're not liable if it breaks your project, deletes your data, or doesn't do what you hoped.
  • BYOK calls (Anthropic, OpenAI, Ollama) are between you and those services. Their terms apply to those calls; we're not a party.
  • macOS App Store distribution (if/when that lands) is subject to Apple's terms in addition to these.

The longer version

License

The code is MIT-licensed. You can fork it, redistribute it, sell products built on top of it. The license text in LICENSE governs.

No warranty

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE.

BYOK calls

The AI agent forwards your prompts directly to whichever provider you've configured (Anthropic, OpenAI, or local Ollama). When you use it:

  • Your API key authenticates the call. We don't proxy through our infrastructure (decision 2.35) — Unibench never sees your prompts or the responses.
  • The provider's terms govern that data flow. Anthropic's usage policies, OpenAI's usage policies, and Ollama's local-only nature each apply to their respective paths.
  • You're responsible for any usage charges those providers bill.

Third-party services we ship

Unibench bundles install paths for Postgres, Redis, Qdrant, Ollama, and MinIO binaries. Their respective licenses apply to those binaries — we don't relicense them. Notes:

  • Postgres: PostgreSQL License.
  • Redis 7.4.x: BSD 3-Clause (the last open-source Redis line).
  • Qdrant: Apache 2.0.
  • Ollama: MIT.
  • MinIO: AGPLv3 (separate concerns for commercial use — see upstream).

Data + service availability

Unibench is a local-first tool. We don't run a service for you; there's no SaaS to be available or unavailable. The marketing site at unibench.app is best-effort static content.

Changes to these terms

We can update these terms between releases. Material changes get a new effective date at the top of this file and a line in the public changelog. Continued use after a change is acceptance.
