DESIGN DRIVEN WORKS LLC. · EFFECTIVE AUGUST 22, 2026
Terms of Service
Attorney review required before launch. This is a comprehensive commercial draft, not legal advice. Applicable law and enforceability vary by jurisdiction; qualified counsel should approve the final publication.
These binding terms govern the MetraBench website, account and early-access services, software, documentation, and related services. By accessing or using them, you accept these terms and represent that you have authority to bind any organization for which you act.
Limited license
Subject to these terms and any order, Design Driven Works LLC. grants a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to use MetraBench solely for lawful internal engineering work. The software is licensed, not sold.
Prohibited AI and automated use
Third-party users may not use artificial intelligence, machine learning, large language models, computer vision, autonomous agents, bots, scripts, automated browsers, or comparable systems with or in connection with MetraBench. This includes operation, data entry or extraction, scraping, training, fine-tuning, benchmarking, inference, retrieval datasets, imitation, and creation of derivative workflows, interfaces, or products. Only Design Driven Works LLC. and personnel specifically authorized by it in writing may use such systems for internal development, testing, security, or operations.
Other prohibited conduct
You may not bypass security or entitlement controls; reverse engineer except where non-waivable law permits; resell, sublicense, host, or timeshare the Services; interfere with operation; access another account; remove notices; submit information you lack rights to use; or imply certification, validation, endorsement, or regulatory approval not provided by MetraBench.
Engineering use
Unless a capability explicitly states a stronger evidence status, MetraBench calculations are Screening / Review tools for preliminary engineering judgment. They do not replace qualified engineering review, applicable standards, high-fidelity analysis, physical testing, certification, or regulatory approval.
User responsibility
Users are responsible for selecting applicable models, entering correct units and conditions, reviewing assumptions and limitations, validating results for the intended use, and maintaining appropriate project records. PASS or margin output does not guarantee a safe or compliant design.
Accounts and access
MetraBench application access requires an active paid subscription or verified developer authorization and sign-in through an approved identity provider. Plan and developer permissions are assigned by the hosted authorization service and may not be bypassed, shared, reverse engineered, or used to access another account.
Intellectual property
MetraBench, its original interface, software, documentation, graphics, and learning materials are proprietary to Design Driven Works LLC. Third-party standards and user-selected reference documents remain subject to their respective rights and licenses.
Local files, accounts, and ownership
Users remain responsible for lawful content, backups, retention, device security, and identity-provider security. Accounts and entitlements may not be shared or bypassed. MetraBench, its software, interface, books, graphics, and documentation are proprietary to Design Driven Works LLC. or its licensors.
Availability and third parties
Pre-release features may change, be paused, or be withdrawn. Identity, hosting, email, operating-system, and other third-party services are governed by their own terms and may be unavailable independently.
Disclaimers and liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY WARRANTIES INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, OR RESULTS. DESIGN DRIVEN WORKS LLC. WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR LOST DATA, USE, PROFIT, REVENUE, GOODWILL, BUSINESS, ENGINEERING, MANUFACTURING, PROPERTY, PERSONAL-INJURY, OR REGULATORY LOSSES. AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF US$100 OR AMOUNTS PAID FOR THE SERVICES DURING THE PRECEDING TWELVE MONTHS, EXCEPT WHERE LAW PROHIBITS THE LIMIT.
Indemnity and general terms
To the extent permitted by law, users will defend and indemnify Design Driven Works LLC. and its personnel from claims arising from user content, misuse, violations, or engineering and business decisions based on the Services. Signed orders control express conflicts. Mandatory consumer protections remain. Unenforceable provisions are modified only as necessary; surviving provisions remain effective.
