Terms of Service
Effective date: April 16, 2026
Operator: TriKro LLC, doing business as Kromatic ("we," "us," "our," "Company")
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Fermi API service ("Service") available at fermi.krobar.ai, operated by TriKro LLC (DBA Kromatic). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Service Description
Fermi is a REST and MCP API that accepts natural-language questions and returns calibrated probability distributions, including distribution parameters, coverage intervals, point estimates, reasoning summaries, and assumptions. The Service is designed for use by AI agents and human developers as a decision-support tool.
2. Account Terms
2.1 Account Creation
You may create an account by making a POST request to the accounts endpoint. Account creation does not require an email address, password, or any personally identifiable information. Upon creation, you will receive an account_id and an API key.
2.2 API Key Security
You are responsible for safeguarding your API key. Your API key is shown once at creation and is stored only in hashed form thereafter. We cannot recover a lost API key. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your API key. You must notify us immediately at [email protected] if you believe your API key has been compromised.
2.3 Account Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice. You may request account deletion by contacting [email protected] with your account_id.
3. Credit System and Pricing
3.1 Credits
The Service uses a credit-based system. Each estimation request consumes credits based on its tier:
- Tier 1: 1 credit per estimate
- Tier 2: 3 credits per estimate
- Tier 3: 10 credits per estimate
3.2 Starter Credits
New accounts receive 3 starter credits at no charge. These credits are provided as-is with no guarantee of future availability or replenishment.
3.3 Anonymous Tier
Unauthenticated users may make 1 tier-1 estimate per day per IP address at no cost. This allowance may change at any time without notice.
3.4 Credit Expiration and Refunds
Credits do not expire under current policy, but we reserve the right to introduce expiration with reasonable notice. Credits consumed by completed requests are non-refundable. If a request fails due to a Service error after credits have been deducted, we will make reasonable efforts to restore the credits.
3.5 Pricing Changes
We reserve the right to modify credit costs, pricing, and the credit system at any time. Material changes will be communicated through the API documentation or this page.
4. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law or regulation
- Attempt to circumvent rate limits, authentication mechanisms, or credit controls
- Use multiple accounts to evade rate limits or abuse the free tier
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code or algorithms of the Service
- Transmit malicious content, exploit payloads, or attempt to compromise the Service's infrastructure
- Resell or redistribute the Service without our prior written consent
- Use the Service in a manner that could damage, disable, or impair it, or interfere with any other party's use
- Use the Service to generate content that violates the acceptable use policies of our upstream LLM providers (Anthropic, OpenAI)
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access for any user who violates these terms.
5. API Output Disclaimer
5.1 Not Professional Advice
The Service does not provide financial, investment, medical, legal, or any other form of professional advice. Estimates should not be used as the sole basis for any decision with material consequences. You should consult qualified professionals for decisions in these domains.
5.2 No Guarantee of Accuracy
We make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, reliability, completeness, or timeliness of any estimate. Probability distributions are model-generated approximations. Actual outcomes may differ materially from estimates provided.
5.3 Disclaimer Acknowledgment
Each estimation request requires you to affirm "disclaimer_acknowledged": true in the request body. By setting this flag, you acknowledge that you understand the limitations described in this section.
