For vendors
Charter License term sheet
The commercial terms on which Charter licenses a sandbox of your software: synthetic data only, a 30 percent revenue share paid monthly, and the right to withdraw with 90 days notice.
Dated November 2, 2026. Version 1.
- Parties
- Charter (the Licensee) and the company that owns or has the right to license the software (the Vendor).
- Licensed Software
- The Vendor's product, at the version or versions the Vendor names in the order form. Charter lists it in its catalog under the Vendor's name and category.
- Sandbox Instance
- A resettable instance of the Licensed Software that Charter can create on demand: a container image, a hosted sandbox tenant the Vendor provisions, or an on-premises installer. Each instance is used by one buyer at a time and is returned to its seed state after every episode.
- Tenant Data
- Synthetic only. The seeded tenant contains invented companies, people, records and transactions. No customer data of the Vendor, and no personal data of any real person, is ever placed in an instance, by Charter or by the Vendor.
- Permitted Use
- Charter may run Sandbox Instances so that AI labs and agent companies can train and evaluate agents on the Licensed Software, author graded tasks and verifiers against it, and report pass rates of agents on those tasks.
- Restrictions
- No model is trained on the Vendor's own customer data. Charter does not resell, sublicense or redistribute the software outside an episode, does not expose source code that the Vendor has not published, and does not benchmark the Licensed Software against named competitors in public material without the Vendor's written approval.
- Revenue Share
- 30 percent of the environment-hour fees Charter collects for episodes on the Vendor's environments, calculated from metered episode time (ready to ended, per minute). Paid monthly, within 30 days of the end of each calendar month.
- Usage Reports
- With each payment, a report of episodes, environment-hours and fees for the month, by environment and version. Buyer identities are shared only where the buyer's contract allows it.
- Term and Withdrawal
- One year from signature, renewing for one-year terms. The Vendor may withdraw the Licensed Software at any time with 90 days written notice. Episodes stop at the end of the notice period, and revenue share is paid on all usage up to that date.
- Versions and Updates
- The Vendor decides which versions are offered. Charter builds and seeds new versions on the Vendor's release schedule and keeps prior versions available only with the Vendor's consent.
- Branding
- Charter may use the Vendor's name, product name and logo in its catalog and documentation to identify the environment, following the Vendor's brand guidelines. Any other public use needs written approval.
- Confidentiality
- Each party keeps the other's non-public information confidential, including unpublished software, pricing and usage reports, for the term and three years after.
- Liability
- The software is provided as is for sandbox use. Neither party is liable for indirect or consequential damages. Each party's total liability is capped at the revenue share paid or payable in the twelve months before the claim.
- Governing Law
- California. Disputes are resolved in the state or federal courts in San Francisco County.
How this term sheet is used
This term sheet summarizes the terms Charter offers every vendor. It is not binding by itself. The definitive Charter License agreement, signed by both parties, governs and will follow these terms. Where a vendor needs a different instance type, version policy or payment schedule, we write it into the order form.
