1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using BeyondAEC services — including our website, client dashboard, and any rendered deliverables — you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use our services. These terms apply to all visitors, clients, and team members.

2. Services & Deliverables

BeyondAEC provides subscription-based 3D visualization services for civil engineering firms, including 3D typical section renders and photo composites. Specific deliverable quantities are defined by the subscription plan selected at the time of signup:

• Core — 5 typical sections or 1 photo composite per month
• Elite — 8 typical sections + 2 photo composites per month
• Pro — 20 typical sections + 5 photo composites per month

Unused renders do not roll over to the next billing cycle. Animated fly-throughs and custom deliverables are available by separate quote only and are not included in subscription plans.

3. Subscription & Billing

Subscriptions are billed monthly on the date of signup. By subscribing, you authorize BeyondAEC to charge your payment method on a recurring monthly basis until you cancel. All fees are non-refundable except as required by law. You may cancel at any time; access continues through the end of the paid billing period.

Late or failed payments may result in suspension of service until the outstanding balance is resolved.

4. Intellectual Property

Upon receipt of full payment, the client is granted an irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use all delivered renders for any purpose including DOT proposals, public presentations, marketing materials, and permit applications.

BeyondAEC retains ownership of all underlying production assets, custom 3D models, shaders, and proprietary workflows used to produce renders. Source files are not included unless explicitly agreed upon in writing.

5. Client Responsibilities

Clients are responsible for providing accurate source materials (CAD files, measurements, plan sets, or photos) required to complete renders. BeyondAEC is not responsible for errors resulting from inaccurate or incomplete source materials provided by the client.

6. Revisions

All plans include two (2) revision rounds per render. Revisions must be submitted within 14 days of render delivery. Requests beyond the included revision rounds will be quoted separately.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, BeyondAEC shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from the use of our services. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount paid by the client in the three (3) months preceding the claim.

8. Termination

BeyondAEC reserves the right to terminate or suspend access to its services at any time for violation of these terms, fraudulent activity, or failure to maintain payment. Clients may cancel their subscription at any time through the billing dashboard.
