Terms of Service

Last Updated: October 17, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Workstak. By accessing or using our website at workstak.co and its associated subdomains, products, and portals (collectively, the “Platform”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). These Terms govern your access to Workstak Labs products, Workstak Runtime inquiries, The Foundry community and educational portals, and our editorial publications.

2. The Workstak Ecosystem

Workstak operates across three core pillars alongside our public publications:

  • Workstak Labs: Our software studio building focused applications for knowledge workers, including Perch (accessible at perch.workstak.co). Early-access waitlists, software downloads, and licenses for Labs products are subject to these Terms and any product-specific license terms presented at the time of download or purchase.
  • Workstak Runtime: Our operational technology and systems engineering practice. Submitting a diagnostic inquiry or audit request through workstak.co/runtime does not create a binding client relationship. All consulting, Phase 1 Systems Audits, and Phase 2 Production Buildouts are governed by a separate written Statement of Work (SOW) or Master Services Agreement (MSA) executed between Workstak and the client.
  • The Foundry: Our private operator network, community, and educational curriculum (including Foundry Foundations). Access to The Foundry is application-based and curated. Founding Cohort 0 waitlist applicants receive complimentary access to designated foundational materials subject to these Terms.
  • Publications & Resource Hub: Our essays, playbooks, system prompts, schemas, and the Alpha Work newsletter, provided for educational and informational use.

3. Intellectual Property & Acceptable Use

The Workstak brand, logo, website design, proprietary frameworks, software code, and original editorial content are the exclusive property of Workstak.

  • Resource Hub & Playbooks: Templates, system prompts, and schemas published in our Resource Hub are licensed to you on a non-exclusive, non-transferable basis for your personal or internal business operations.
  • Foundry Foundations & Curriculum: Educational modules inside The Foundry are provided strictly for registered applicants and members. You may not reproduce, republish, scrape, resell, or distribute Foundry curriculum materials publicly without prior written permission from Workstak.
  • Runtime Client Deliverables: Intellectual property ownership for custom operational systems engineered through Workstak Runtime is governed by the applicable client agreement, under which clients retain full ownership of custom code and architecture deployed to their infrastructure upon full payment.

4. Community Standards (The Foundry)

To preserve high-signal peer exchange within The Foundry, all applicants and members agree to:

  • Maintain strict confidentiality regarding operational metrics, financials, and business challenges shared by fellow members.
  • Engage constructively and refrain from unsolicited sales pitching, spam, or automated harvesting of member contact details.
  • Provide accurate information when applying for membership or accessing portal resources.

Workstak reserves the right to decline applications or revoke access to The Foundry and its portals at our sole discretion if a participant breaches these standards.

5. Educational & Operational Disclaimers

All essays, playbooks, technical blueprints, prompts, and frameworks published on the Platform or inside The Foundry are provided “as-is” for informational and educational purposes only.

  • No Professional Advice: Nothing on the Platform constitutes formal legal, financial, tax, or compliance advice. You are solely responsible for evaluating how any workflow, prompt, or software configuration applies to your business.
  • No Guaranteed Outcomes: While we engineer our software and playbooks from first principles for operational leverage, Workstak makes no warranties—express or implied—regarding specific revenue outcomes, cost reductions, or uninterrupted operation of third-party tools referenced in our guides.

6. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy conferred by the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or other applicable law that cannot be lawfully excluded.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Workstak shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunities arising out of or related to your use of the Platform. Where liability cannot be excluded, Workstak’s total aggregate liability arising from your use of the Platform shall not exceed the total amount paid by you to Workstak (if any) in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or AUD $100, whichever is greater.

7. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect new products, services, or legal requirements. When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. Continued use of the Platform after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

8. Governing Law & Contact

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New South Wales, Australia, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising under these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales, Australia.
