Effective date: June 20, 2026 · Last updated: August 1, 2026
This End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you (either an individual or acting on behalf of an entity, "you") and the developer of Dolli ("Developer", "we", "us"), regarding your use of the Dolli desktop application and any associated services, updates, and documentation (the "Software").
By installing or using the Software, you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.
1. Summary
This is a plain-language overview only; the full terms below control.
- Dolli is licensed to you, not sold. You may use it; you may not resell, redistribute, or reverse-engineer it.
- The Software communicates over the internet to provide AI features and optional sync, and may send anonymized usage telemetry only if you opt in.
- The Software is provided "as is", with no warranty, and the Developer's liability is limited.
- AI-generated output can be wrong — review it before relying on it.
- Dolli is in closed beta: access is invite-only, things may change or break, and you should keep your own backups.
- Your content stays yours. We process it only to run the features you use, and we do not train AI models on it.
2. The Agreement
By downloading, installing, or using the Software, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all terms of this Agreement, as well as the Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference.
3. Eligibility & your account
You must be at least 16 years old, and old enough to form a binding contract where you live, to use the Software. If you use it for an organization, you confirm you are authorized to accept this Agreement on its behalf.
Some features require an account. You agree to give accurate registration details, to keep your password and any authentication tokens confidential, and that you are responsible for everything done through your account. Tell us promptly at dolli.support@gmail.com if you believe it has been used without your permission.
While Dolli is in closed beta, accounts are invite-only. We may decline, limit, or withdraw an invitation at our discretion, and we may close accounts that are inactive or that breach this Agreement.
4. Closed beta
Dolli is pre-release software offered during a closed beta. That has real consequences you should assume will happen at some point:
- Features may change, break, or be removed without notice.
- The service may be unavailable or interrupted.
- Data may be lost or corrupted, including data that has been synced.
Keep your own backups. Dolli writes your notes and captures to a local Vault folder of Markdown files and takes periodic local database backups, but you should not treat Dolli as the only copy of anything you cannot afford to lose.
The closed beta is currently provided free of charge. We may introduce paid plans later, as described in section 18.
5. License grant
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, the Developer grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, limited license to install and use the Software on devices you own or control, for your personal or internal business use. The Software is licensed, not sold.
6. Restrictions
You agree that you will not, and will not permit others to:
- use the Software in any unlawful manner, for any unlawful purpose, or in a way that infringes the rights of others, or to access data you are not authorized to access;
- sell, rent, lease, sublicense, redistribute, or commercially exploit the Software;
- copy the Software (except as necessary to install and run it) or, if you redistribute it in any permitted circumstance, distribute it without this Agreement included;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the Software, or attempt to derive its source code, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law; or
- remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notices (including copyright or trademark notices) in the Software.
7. Acceptable use of the services
Section 6 covers what you may not do to the Software itself. This section covers the hosted parts — accounts, the AI processing service, and optional sync. You agree not to:
- Use the services to break the law, infringe anyone's rights, or send malware.
- Generate or distribute content that is unlawful, harassing, deceptive, or that impersonates someone else.
- Resell, sublicense, or provide third parties with access to the AI features, or use them to build a competing product.
- Interfere with the services or place an unreasonable load on them, including by automated or bulk querying, or work around any limit or access control.
- Submit other people's personal information where you do not have the right or consent to do so. This applies in particular to email, messages, and meeting recordings: recording a conversation may require the consent of everyone in it, and obtaining that consent is your responsibility.
We may apply reasonable fair-use limits to protect the service, and may change them with notice.
8. Your content and data
You own the content you create, capture, or connect — your tasks, notes, email, messages, calendar entries, recordings, and transcripts. This Agreement gives us no ownership of it.
You grant the Developer a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide licence to host, copy, transmit, and process that content solely to provide the features you invoke, and to our service providers only to the extent needed for the same purpose. It ends when you stop using the services or delete the content, except for copies retained briefly in backups or as the law requires.
We do not use your content to train AI models, and we do not sell it. What is sent where, and to which providers, is set out in the Privacy Policy.
You are responsible for having the rights necessary to submit the content you give Dolli access to. Most of your data stays on your Mac; you can delete it in the app, and the Vault keeps a plain-Markdown copy you can take with you.
9. Availability, changes & suspension
The services are provided "as available". We do not promise any particular uptime, and we may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of them. Where a change is material and we can reasonably give notice in advance, we will.
We may suspend or terminate your access — in whole or in part, and without refund of any amount attributable to the period of suspension — if we reasonably believe you have breached this Agreement, if your use creates a security or legal risk, if it is required by law or by one of our providers, or if any amount you owe is unpaid. Where practical and lawful, we will tell you first and give you a chance to put it right.
Dolli depends on services operated by others, and their terms, pricing, and APIs can change in ways outside our control.
10. Third-party services & your own keys
Dolli connects to services you choose: Google (Gmail and Calendar), your CalDAV or IMAP provider, Deepgram for meeting transcription, and our own hosted AI and sync services. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that provider's own terms and privacy policy, and you are responsible for complying with them.
Dolli's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Some features run on an API key you supply yourself — meeting transcription uses your own Deepgram key. You are responsible for keeping that key secure, for any charges the provider bills you, and for your use of it under their terms. We are not responsible for a third party's outage, change, or discontinuation, and a feature that depends on one may stop working as a result.
11. Automatic communications & privacy
To function and stay secure, the Software may automatically:
- Check for and download updates.
- Process content you choose to act on by transmitting it to the Developer's processing service and third-party AI providers (see the Privacy Policy). This only occurs when you use an AI feature.
- Sync your data to the Developer's hosted database, only if you enable sync.
- Send anonymized usage telemetry (feature names, latency, token counts, errors) — only if you opt in, and never including the raw content of your prompts, email, or messages. You can turn this off at any time in Settings.
All handling of your data is described in the Privacy Policy. You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to access and process any data you direct the Software to handle (for example, the contents of messages from other people).
12. AI-generated output
The Software uses third-party AI models to generate summaries, replies, transcriptions, and other output. AI output may be inaccurate, incomplete, or inappropriate. You are responsible for reviewing AI output before relying on or acting upon it (including before sending any AI-drafted message or email). The Developer makes no warranty regarding the accuracy of AI output.
13. Open-source & third-party notices
The Software includes third-party and open-source components, each licensed under its own terms, listed in Third-Party Notices. To the extent any open-source license conflicts with this Agreement, that open-source license governs solely with respect to the corresponding component. Your use of third-party services reached through the Software (including Anthropic, OpenAI, Cloudflare, Supabase, and Google) is also subject to those providers' own terms and privacy policies.
14. Intellectual property
The Software is licensed, not sold. The Developer and its licensors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including all intellectual property rights. This Agreement grants you no rights other than the limited license expressly stated, and all rights not expressly granted are reserved.
15. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, OR THAT IT WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS. YOU USE THE SOFTWARE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
16. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEVELOPER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE DEVELOPER'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $50. The Developer also reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Software (or any part of it) at any time. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.
17. Termination & governing law
This Agreement is effective until terminated, and terminates automatically if you breach it. Upon termination you must stop using and delete the Software. Sections 6, 8, and 14–16 survive termination.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, subject to any mandatory consumer protections in your place of residence.
18. Changes to this Agreement
The Developer may update this Agreement from time to time — for example to reflect new features, new third-party services, or legal and regulatory requirements. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
For material changes we will give reasonable advance notice before they take effect, through an in-app notice, an email to the address on your account, or a prominent notice on the Dolli website.
Your continued use of the Software after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Agreement. If you do not agree, stop using the Software and uninstall it; that is your remedy, and this section does not limit any mandatory rights you have under the consumer law of your country or state.
If the Software is offered on a paid basis, changes to fees apply only going forward. We will not change the price of a billing period you have already paid for, and you will be told the new price, and given the chance to cancel before it applies, in the manner required by applicable law.
19. Entire agreement & contact
This Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy, is the entire agreement between you and the Developer regarding the Software and supersedes any prior agreements. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
