The operating contract for routing requests through api.slashed.pro. This page is published as a transparent working draft while counsel review is in progress.
This document describes our intended operating posture and currently-honoured commitments. It has not been reviewed by external legal counsel. Counsel-grade specifics — including governing law, jurisdiction, dispute-resolution mechanics, arbitration, limitation of liability, indemnification, and warranty — are intentionally not drafted here yet.
Material changes will be dated and reflected in the changelog at the foot of this page. If you need a counsel-grade contractual representation before that review concludes, write to hi@slashed.pro and a founder will respond directly.
SLASHED is an OpenAI-compatible gateway across eleven frontier models. The intended use is the obvious one: connect a client, route requests, build a product, pay for the tokens you actually use. The list below clarifies the boundary between fair use and behaviour that will get an account suspended.
base_url that proxies straight to SLASHED — requires prior written permission. Building a real product on top of SLASHED is the allowed alternative; pure access-resale is not.
SLASHED operates the gateway on a best-effort basis. There is no contractual uptime SLA at this time. Published status, incident handling, and observed historical uptime are all real — but none of them is yet a contractual commitment, and we are not yet ready to write a service-credit schedule against the platform.
status.slashed.pro. Carries component health, incident history, and post-incident summaries. Subscribe via the status page for email or RSS alerts.A contractual SLA — with target uptime percentile, measurement methodology, credit schedule, and exclusions — will be added in a later revision. Until then, SLASHED makes no SLA-equivalent representation by reference to status-page history or any other metric.
Billing reflects what you actually consumed, priced at the published per-token rate card. There is no hidden context tax, no router-authored preamble, no silent system prompt added to your token total. The dashboard mirrors the invoice line for line.
Either party may end the relationship. The intended posture is symmetrical and uncomplicated: you can leave at any time from the dashboard; we reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate the acceptable-use list above. Statutory rights survive termination; final invoices are paid on the next cycle either way.
Specific notice periods, cure windows for material breach, survival clauses, and the precise mechanics of for-cause termination will be set out in counsel-reviewed contract text. Until then, the intended posture above is operative as good-faith working text only.
SLASHED operates as routing infrastructure on top of third-party model providers. Model outputs are produced by those providers. The gateway makes no representation about the truthfulness, fitness, or safety of any specific completion it returns to your client.
Model outputs are generated by upstream providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) and are returned through SLASHED. The gateway may apply routing, error normalisation, and safety-related handling consistent with provider policy and the acceptable-use rules above; otherwise SLASHED does not edit completion content as a default behaviour. SLASHED makes no warranty that any specific completion is accurate, complete, current, safe, non-infringing, or fit for a particular purpose. You are responsible for evaluating fitness in your application context — especially in regulated, safety-critical, or human-impact use cases.
This includes — explicitly — medical, legal, financial, electoral, and child-safety contexts. The gateway is not a substitute for qualified professional judgement in any of these domains.
SLASHED does not control upstream provider behaviour. Model availability, response shape, content policy enforcement, deprecation schedule, and rate limits ultimately reflect provider decisions. SLASHED's commitment is to surface provider behaviour faithfully — including correct HTTP semantics, stable response schema, and the actual token count — not to override or reinterpret provider policy.
Outages, model retirements, or unilateral policy changes at the provider level may interrupt or alter service. SLASHED communicates these on the status page and, where material, by email to affected account addresses.
The SLASHED gateway is provided as-is, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including (but not limited to) merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We work hard to keep it well-behaved; we do not yet contractually guarantee that.
Limitation of liability, indemnification, exclusive-remedy language, statutory-warranty carve-outs (consumer-protection jurisdictions), and the specific text of warranty disclaimers above will be reviewed and refined by counsel. The intent of the above is to be plainly worded and honest about current commitment level; the binding text will be added in a later revision.
The items listed below require qualified legal review before they appear in customer-facing terms. They are intentionally absent from this draft. SLASHED will not enforce, rely on, or otherwise treat as binding any reading of the missing items — they will only become part of the agreement after counsel review and a re-publication of this document.
