These Terms govern a service that takes autonomous actions inside your AWS account, including stopping compute instances and deleting storage volumes. Please read Sections 4, 8, and 9 carefully before enabling LEEKi on any account.
As used in these Terms of Service ("Terms"), the following definitions apply:
By accessing or using the Service, you represent that: (a) you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms; (b) you are at least 18 years of age; (c) you have the legal authority to bind the business entity on whose behalf you are acting; and (d) your use of the Service is not prohibited by applicable law.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service. Use of the Service after any update to these Terms constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
LEEKi provides autonomous AWS cloud cost optimization. The Service connects to Customer's AWS Account via a cross-account IAM role, analyzes resource utilization and cost data, and either:
The following action categories are eligible for autonomous execution when confidence is ≥ 95%:
The following action categories are never autonomously executed and always require Customer approval:
The Service applies a three-layer production guard: (i) code-level checks for Environment and Env resource tags, (ii) an IAM Deny policy applied to production-tagged resources, and (iii) a hard confidence ceiling of 97% for all autonomous actions regardless of configuration. Resources tagged as production environments are excluded from autonomous execution.
LEEKi makes no guarantee regarding the amount of cost savings Customer will realize. Waste identified by the Service depends entirely on the state of Customer's AWS Account and may be zero.
Before deleting any EBS volume, the Service creates a safety snapshot in Customer's AWS Account. Safety snapshots are retained for thirty (30) days from creation, after which the Service automatically deletes them. During the retention period, snapshot storage is billed to Customer's AWS Account at standard AWS rates. Restoration of a deleted volume from its safety snapshot is only possible during the retention period; after the snapshot is deleted, the volume's data is unrecoverable. Customer may request a longer retention period by written notice to hello@leeki.io.
This section describes the scope of permission you are granting LEEKi to act inside your AWS account. Read it in full before completing setup.
By deploying the LEEKi CloudFormation stack and providing the resulting IAM Role ARN to LEEKi, Customer explicitly and irrevocably (until revoked per Section 4.4) authorizes LEEKi to:
LEEKi uses AWS IAM ExternalId conditions on all cross-account role assumptions. Customer must not share their ExternalId with third parties. LEEKi does not share ExternalIds across customers.
LEEKi does not access, read, copy, transmit, or store the contents of EC2 instances, S3 objects, RDS databases, application logs, or any data residing inside Customer's workloads. The Service reads only resource metadata, configuration, utilization metrics, and cost allocation data.
Customer may revoke LEEKi's access at any time by deleting the LEEKi CloudFormation stack from their AWS Account. Deletion of the stack removes the IAM role and terminates all access immediately. Revocation does not automatically terminate the Subscription; Customer must separately cancel per Section 11.2.
Customer is solely responsible for the accuracy of the Configuration provided to LEEKi, including confidence thresholds, region scope, and production environment tagging. LEEKi executes actions based on the Configuration as provided. Misconfiguration that results in unintended actions is Customer's responsibility.
Customer agrees to:
LEEKi is offered on flat monthly subscription tiers. Current pricing is published at leeki.io. LEEKi reserves the right to adjust pricing with 30 days' written notice to existing customers.
Subscriptions are billed monthly on the anniversary of the Customer's activation date. Fees are due in advance. Access to the Service is contingent on current payment.
LEEKi offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for new customers on their first month of service. To request a refund within this period, Customer must submit a written request to hello@leeki.io. Refunds are not available for subsequent billing cycles.
Except as provided in Section 6.3 or required by applicable law, all Subscription Fees are non-refundable. Cancellation mid-cycle does not entitle Customer to a prorated refund.
Subscription Fees are exclusive of any applicable sales, use, VAT, or similar taxes. Customer is responsible for all such taxes, except taxes on LEEKi's net income.
LEEKi may suspend or terminate access to the Service for accounts with overdue balances after providing 7 days' written notice.
Each party ("Receiving Party") agrees to hold in confidence all Confidential Information of the other party ("Disclosing Party") and to use such information solely for the purpose of performing its obligations or exercising its rights under these Terms.
"Confidential Information" means any non-public information disclosed by a party, including but not limited to technical data, trade secrets, business plans, customer lists, financial information, and the contents of Customer's Configuration and Savings Reports.
Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that: (a) is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the Receiving Party; (b) was rightfully known to the Receiving Party prior to disclosure; (c) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of Confidential Information; or (d) is required to be disclosed by law or court order, provided the Receiving Party gives prompt written notice to the Disclosing Party where legally permissible.
Confidentiality obligations survive termination of these Terms for three (3) years.
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." LEEKI EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
LEEKi does not warrant that: (a) the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components; (b) any specific amount of cost savings will be achieved; (c) the Service will identify all instances of cloud waste in Customer's AWS Account; (d) autonomous or approved actions will produce the intended result in all cases; or (e) safety snapshots created prior to EBS deletion will be accessible or complete in all failure scenarios.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties. In such jurisdictions, the above exclusions apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.
THIS SECTION LIMITS LEEKI'S LIABILITY TO YOU. READ IT CAREFULLY.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LEEKI BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, WHETHER OR NOT LEEKI HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE).
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LEEKI'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL SUBSCRIPTION FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER TO LEEKI IN THE SIX (6) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
To the extent applicable law renders this limitation unenforceable as to any particular claim, it shall remain in full force and effect as to all other claims, and shall be reduced only to the minimum extent required by law rather than disregarded.
Customer acknowledges that LEEKi has set its Subscription Fees and entered into these Terms in reliance upon the limitations of liability and disclaimers of warranties set forth herein, and that such limitations represent an essential element of the basis of the bargain between the parties.
For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations in this Section 9 apply to any claim arising from Autonomous Actions taken by the Service in Customer's AWS Account, including but not limited to the stopping of EC2 instances, deletion of EBS volumes, and any downstream effects on Customer's applications, workloads, or data.
The disclaimers in Section 8 and the limitations in this Section 9 apply to LEEKi and to its members, managers, officers, employees, contractors, and agents. Each of them is an intended third-party beneficiary of Sections 8 and 9 and may enforce them directly.
Customer agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless LEEKi and its operators, officers, employees, agents, and successors from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) Customer's breach of these Terms; (b) Customer's misuse of the Service, including use on unauthorized AWS Accounts; (c) Customer's failure to maintain accurate production environment tagging; (d) Customer's approval of Approval Queue actions; (e) Customer's Configuration, including any errors or omissions therein; or (f) Customer's violation of any applicable law or third-party rights.
LEEKi agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Customer from and against third-party claims that the Service, as provided and used in accordance with these Terms, infringes any third-party intellectual property right. LEEKi's obligations under this Section 10.2 do not apply if the claim arises from: Customer's modification of the Service, use of the Service in combination with products not provided by LEEKi, or Customer's failure to implement updates provided by LEEKi.
These Terms commence on the date Customer first accesses or uses the Service and continue until terminated as provided herein.
Customer may terminate the Subscription at any time by: (a) revoking LEEKi's AWS Account access per Section 4.4; and (b) providing written notice of cancellation to hello@leeki.io. Termination takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle. No refunds are provided for the remainder of a paid cycle except as described in Section 6.3.
LEEKi may terminate these Terms or suspend access to the Service immediately upon written notice if: (a) Customer materially breaches these Terms and fails to cure such breach within 14 days of notice; (b) Customer uses the Service on unauthorized AWS Accounts; (c) LEEKi determines that continued access poses a security or legal risk; or (d) Customer fails to pay Subscription Fees after the cure period in Section 6.6.
Upon termination: (a) all license rights granted hereunder terminate immediately; (b) Customer must revoke LEEKi's AWS Account access per Section 4.4; (c) LEEKi will delete Customer's Configuration and Savings Reports within 90 days; and (d) all provisions that by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including Sections 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, and 13.
Before initiating any formal proceeding, the parties agree to attempt to resolve any dispute by written notice to the other party describing the claim in detail. The parties will negotiate in good faith for 30 days after notice is received.
If informal resolution fails, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
CUSTOMER AND LEEKI EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION. DISPUTES MUST BE BROUGHT INDIVIDUALLY.
Notwithstanding Section 12.2, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent irreparable harm pending the outcome of arbitration.
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. For any matter not subject to arbitration under Section 12, the parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Florida.
These Terms, together with any applicable Order Form and LEEKi's Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between the parties regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral.
LEEKi may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated to Customer via email at least 30 days before taking effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
Failure by either party to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that party's right to enforce such provision in the future.
Customer may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights hereunder without LEEKi's prior written consent. LEEKi may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all of its assets. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section is void.
Neither party shall be liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from events outside its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, government actions, AWS service outages, cyberattacks, or natural disasters, provided the affected party provides prompt notice and uses commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance.
The parties are independent contractors. These Terms do not create a partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, or employment relationship.
All legal notices under these Terms must be in writing and delivered by email with confirmed receipt, or by nationally recognized overnight courier to the address on file for each party. Notices to LEEKi must be sent to hello@leeki.io.
