Terms of use

Yours to run.

Actovia is free, open-source software that runs on your own computer, and Actovia for iPhone is a remote for it. These terms cover using the apps and this website. They are short because there is no account, no subscription and no service of ours in the middle. Effective 28 October 2026.

The software and its license

Actovia’s source code is published under the MIT license. You may use, copy, change and share it as that license allows, and the license governs the code wherever these terms say less.

The apps are free. Nothing is sold, there is no account to create, and using them does not make you a customer of ours.

Your keys, their terms

Actovia works with the services you connect it to, using your own keys: a model provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Azure OpenAI, or a local model through Ollama), Brave Search, Google Maps, MCP servers, coding agents such as Claude Code or Codex, and storage you own.

Your use of each of those is between you and that service: its own terms, its acceptable-use rules, its prices and its limits apply, and whatever it charges is charged to your account with it. Keep your keys to yourself; Actovia stores them encrypted on your computer and sends each only to its own service.

What the assistant does on your computer

Actovia can read and write files, run commands in a terminal, fetch web pages, call the tools of MCP servers, start coding agents in the folders you give them and, if you switch it on, operate an app on your Mac. You decide which of these are on, and it asks before touching secrets outside its own folder; but it acts on your behalf, with your permissions.

Keep backups of what matters, read what it proposes before you approve it, and give it only the folders, apps and servers you are willing to let it work in. You are responsible for what you ask it to do and for what you allow it to do.

Answers can be wrong

Language models make mistakes, and so do search results, web pages and the tools they read. Check anything that matters before you rely on it. Nothing Actovia writes is professional advice — legal, financial, medical or otherwise.

The Health pages of Actovia for iPhone show what Apple Health gave them and can ask a model about it. They are not a medical device and do not diagnose, treat or monitor any condition.

Using it fairly

Don’t use Actovia to break the law, to harm other people, or to get around the rules of the services it connects to. The Skills Market relay and the website are offered for ordinary use; automated scraping or abuse of them may be blocked.

Actovia for iPhone

Actovia for iPhone is distributed through the App Store, and Apple’s Standard End User License Agreement applies to it alongside these terms. Apple is not responsible for the app or for support of it; support is ours, at /support.

No warranty

The apps are provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind, as the MIT license says. To the extent the law allows, the authors are not liable for any claim, damage or loss arising from the apps or from their use — including lost data, actions the assistant took that you approved or enabled, and charges from the services you connected.

Changes and contact

If these terms change, the new version is published here with a new effective date. The privacy policy says what the apps keep and send.
