Terms of Service
How we operate, what we believe in, and what you can expect from us.

How We Operate
Pay-per-use services, powered by Bitcoin Lightning.
Sats4AI is a Bitcoin-powered services marketplace. We provide access to AI tools (image generation, text generation, video, audio, vision, OCR), communication services (phone calls, SMS, email), document processing (file conversion, PDF tools, translation), and more. Every service works the same way: you submit a request, pay a Lightning invoice, and receive your result. No signup, no subscription, no minimum commitment.
We operate three interfaces: a web UI for humans, an L402 API for programmatic access, and an MCP server for AI agents. All three follow the same principle: pay per use, no accounts required.
Privacy First
We don't know who you are, and we want to keep it that way.
No accounts
We don't ask for your name, email, phone number, or any personal information. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to log in to.
No KYC
We don't verify your identity. Bitcoin Lightning payments are pseudonymous by nature. We receive sats, you receive a result.
No data retention
We don't store your prompts, your generated content, your uploaded files, or your conversation history. Once your request is processed, it's gone.
No tracking
We don't build user profiles, track behavior across sessions, or sell data to third parties. We use minimal analytics to improve the service, not to identify you.
Privacy is not a feature we bolted on — it's a consequence of how we built the platform. When there are no accounts, there is no account data to leak. When there is no stored content, there is nothing for a breach to expose. We believe the best way to protect your data is to never collect it in the first place.
We cannot link usage to anyone
On our end, a request looks like this: a Lightning payment arrives, a prompt is processed, a result is returned. There is no user ID, no session token, no cookie tying that request to a person. We see a payment — that's it. We have no way to know who sent it, where they are, or what else they've done on the platform.
The only way personal information enters our system is if you include it in your prompt. If you ask a model to draft an email and type your real name and address into the prompt, that data passes through the AI provider to generate a response — but we don't store it. Avoid putting personally identifiable information in prompts if you want to stay fully anonymous.
Temporary storage for retrieval
Some services — like image generation, video generation, audio, and file conversion — produce files that need to be downloaded. For these, we temporarily store the generated result for up to 2 hours so you have time to retrieve it. After that window, the data is automatically deleted. This is purely functional: without temporary storage, you'd have no way to download your result. No metadata, no user association, and no prompt is stored alongside the file — just the output itself, on a countdown to deletion.
Bitcoin-Native Pricing
We price in sats. We don't peg to the dollar.
Our prices are set in Bitcoin satoshis and are not adjusted based on fiat exchange rates. When a tool costs 50 sats, it costs 50 sats whether Bitcoin is at $30,000 or $300,000. We are not “selling AI for dollars and accepting Bitcoin as a payment method.” We are pricing in Bitcoin because we believe in it as a unit of account.
We do occasionally adjust sat prices — most often downward. As Bitcoin's purchasing power grows over time and as newer, cheaper models become available, we pass those savings on to you. But these adjustments reflect real cost changes, not fiat exchange rate fluctuations. There is no $20/month floor designed to extract maximum revenue — just honest cost-plus pricing denominated in the currency we operate in.
Why this matters
Most “Bitcoin-accepting” services convert to fiat instantly and adjust BTC prices every few seconds to maintain a dollar target. We don't. Our sat prices change only when our underlying costs change. You're not paying a fiat price with extra steps — you're paying a Bitcoin price.
Service Terms
What you get and what to expect.
Payments and refunds
Lightning payments are instant and irreversible by design. However, if processing fails on our end, you will see a refund prompt with instructions. If you experience any issue where you paid but didn't receive your result, contact us and we will work with you to resolve it. We take failed requests seriously.
AI outputs are not guaranteed
AI models can produce inaccurate, incomplete, or unexpected results. We provide access to models — we don't guarantee the quality, accuracy, or fitness of their output for any particular purpose. Use your own judgment.
Availability
We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uptime. Models, providers, and tools may change or become temporarily unavailable. We may add, remove, or replace models at any time to maintain the best possible service.
Pricing changes
Sat prices are displayed before every request. You always see the cost before you pay. We may adjust prices as our underlying costs change, but you will never be charged more than the amount shown on the invoice you approve.
Acceptable Use
Freedom with responsibility.
We believe in providing tools without gatekeeping. That said, you are responsible for how you use them. Do not use Sats4AI to:
- Generate content that exploits or harms minors
- Create deepfakes or impersonate real people without consent
- Harass, threaten, or defraud others
- Violate applicable laws in your jurisdiction
- Abuse the platform in ways that degrade service for others (e.g., automated spam)
We reserve the right to rate-limit or block requests that violate these terms or threaten platform stability.
Limitation of Liability
Sats4AI is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We are not liable for any damages arising from your use of the platform, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of revenue, or reliance on AI-generated output.
Our total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount of sats you paid for the specific request in question.
We may update these terms as the platform evolves. Material changes will be reflected in the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
