Terms of Service

Acceptance

By accessing or using Konseki — including the website at konseki.io, the Konseki API, or any related services — you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree to these terms, do not use Konseki. Your continued use of the service after any updates to these terms constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

The service

Konseki provides pre-computed historical market context for S&P 500 symbols, delivered as structured JSON via API and as rendered output via the public website. The service includes outcome distributions, reliability scores, match quality scores, and LLM-ready commentary derived from historical price pattern analysis.

Konseki is for informational and research purposes only. Nothing on Konseki constitutes financial, investment, tax, or trading advice. Historical market context reflects past conditions and does not guarantee future results. You are solely responsible for your own research, decisions, and risk management.

API keys and accounts

Access to the Konseki API requires an account and a valid API key. Accounts use passwordless sign-in — you sign up and log in using a one-time link sent to your email, with no password to create or manage. Each account is tied to one registered email address and issued one API key.

• You are responsible for keeping your API key confidential. Do not share it, commit it to public repositories, or expose it in client-side code.
• You are responsible for keeping access to your registered email address secure, since sign-in links are sent there. If you lose access to your email, contact us at hello@konseki.io.
• All API requests made using your key are your responsibility, regardless of whether you authorised them.
• If you believe your API key has been compromised, contact us immediately at hello@konseki.io. We will issue a replacement and deactivate the exposed key.
• We reserve the right to deactivate accounts or API keys that are used in violation of these terms.

You must provide an accurate email address when signing up. We use this address for sign-in links and service-related communications. Your API key and account details are visible to you in your account dashboard after signing in.

Subscriptions and billing

Free tier: Free API keys provide access to the full S&P 500 universe with no symbol restrictions, subject to the daily request limit described on the Pricing page. No payment is required. Free tier access and limits may be modified or discontinued at any time.

Pro tier: Pro subscriptions are billed monthly at the rate shown on the Pricing page at the time of purchase. Pro access provides the same full S&P 500 universe as Free, with a substantially higher daily request limit.

• Payments are processed by Stripe. By subscribing, you agree to Stripe's terms of service.
• Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless cancelled.
• You may cancel your Pro subscription at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No partial refunds are issued for unused days in a billing period.
• We reserve the right to change pricing with reasonable notice. Price changes will be communicated by email and by updating the Pricing page. Continued use after a price change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new price.

Rate limits

API usage is subject to rate limits based on your subscription tier. Current rate limits for each tier are published on the Pricing page and may be updated from time to time. Limits reset at midnight UTC each day.

Requests that exceed the daily limit will receive a 429 response. Sustained or deliberate attempts to circumvent rate limits — including through multiple accounts, key sharing, or automated abuse — may result in suspension or termination of access without refund.

Acceptable use

You may use Konseki for lawful personal, internal research, and commercial development purposes consistent with these terms.

You may not:

• Share, sell, transfer, or sublicense your API key to any third party
• Use Konseki to build a competing historical market context data product or service
• Redistribute, resell, or republish Konseki output — in raw or derived form — as a standalone data product
• Attempt to scrape, harvest, or bulk-download data beyond your rate limit allocation
• Systematically query historical dates across an extended period with the primary purpose of reconstructing and extracting the full historical dataset, rather than for genuine research or backtesting use within your own systems
• Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or access non-public systems or methodology details
• Use the service in a way that disrupts, degrades, or interferes with Konseki infrastructure
• Use the service in connection with any illegal activity or in violation of applicable law
• Misrepresent Konseki output — including presenting historical context as a guarantee of future performance

Data restrictions

Konseki output — including outcome distributions, reliability scores, match quality scores, and commentary — is licensed for use within your own systems and applications, not for redistribution as raw data.

You may:

• Use Konseki output in your own trading strategies, research workflows, and internal tools
• Incorporate Konseki output into applications, AI assistants, and commercial products you build
• Display derived insights and analysis in your own products, provided Konseki is not presented as a white-labelled data source
• Reference Konseki output in research, writing, or educational content with appropriate attribution

You may not:

• Redistribute, resell, or publish Konseki raw JSON output as a data product or data feed
• Provide API access to Konseki data to third parties through your own API
• Store and serve Konseki output to third parties at scale outside of your own application

Intellectual property

Konseki, including its interface, design, methodology, engine, compiled outputs, commentary, logos, and product structure, is owned by Konseki and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

These terms do not grant you ownership of Konseki, its underlying methodology, software, trademarks, or any proprietary analysis methods. You receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and use the service in accordance with these terms.

The historical market context methodology — including pattern matching, analog scoring, reliability computation, and distribution analysis — represents proprietary intellectual property. You may not reproduce, reverse engineer, or replicate the methodology for commercial purposes without written permission.

Disclaimers

Konseki is provided on an as-is and as-available basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties — express or implied — including warranties of accuracy, reliability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Historical market context reflects past conditions only. It does not predict or guarantee future market behaviour. Market data may be delayed, incomplete, or subject to errors. We work to maintain accuracy but cannot guarantee that all output is free from errors at all times.

No content on Konseki should be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security, asset, or financial instrument.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Konseki will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service — including trading losses, lost profits, lost data, or business interruption — regardless of whether we were advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total liability for any claim arising from your use of Konseki will not exceed the amount you paid for the service in the three months preceding the claim.

Availability

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of Konseki at any time — including the API, specific endpoints, or data coverage — with or without notice. We may also limit or suspend access for security, maintenance, abuse prevention, or legal reasons.

We aim to maintain consistent daily updates but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability or a specific update schedule. The generation_timestamp field in each API response shows when the output was last computed.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of Konseki will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria, Australia.

If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the product, applicable law, or operating requirements change. When we make material changes, we will update the date at the top of this page and notify registered users by email where appropriate.

Continued use of Konseki after updated terms are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

Questions about these terms can be sent to hello@konseki.io.
