Vibe Console

Terms of Use and License Agreement

Last updated: October 13, 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and NesDesign LLC, a US company (“we”, “us”), for the Vibe Console Mac app, Vibe Remote for iPhone, and their account and relay services (together, the “Services”). By using the Services, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the Services.

1. Mac trial and local connection

Vibe Console includes a 14-day Mac trial starting on first use. It does not automatically become a paid subscription. When the trial ends, continued paid Mac features require an active subscription or an earlier permanent license. A paired iPhone connects to its Mac directly over the same local network, without our servers, while Vibe Console on that Mac has an active trial, subscription or earlier permanent license.

2. Subscriptions and billing

Monthly and yearly subscriptions unlock Mac access and Connect from anywhere for eligible paired devices. The price, currency, taxes and billing period are shown before purchase; these terms do not set a fixed price. Subscriptions renew for the chosen period until canceled. A subscription does not include the third-party AI tools or their usage fees.

iPhone purchases are made through Apple, the merchant for those purchases, under Apple's applicable billing terms. Mac purchases are made on vibeconsole.dev or in the Mac app, with no account, on a Stripe Checkout page opened by RevenueCat. To use such a purchase on another Mac or on an iPhone, choose Restore purchase there and enter the email you paid with; we send it a one-time code. They are processed by Stripe Managed Payments; for these purchases Stripe is the merchant of record and appears to you as Link (“Sold through Link”). Your statement shows a charge starting with LINK.COM*, such as LINK.COM* VIBE CONSOLE, and receipts, invoices, refund notices and subscription emails come from Link under its terms. RevenueCat processes subscription status; it is not a separate merchant. We do not receive your card details. Cancel or update a Mac subscription or its payment method at app.link.com, and an iPhone subscription in your Apple Account settings under Subscriptions.

Refunds for Mac subscriptions can be requested from Link support or from us, and are issued through Link to the original payment method. Stripe can issue refunds within 60 days of the original transaction in certain cases. Refunds for iPhone subscriptions are handled by Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com. See our refund policy.

If you are a consumer in the EU or UK, you have 14 days to withdraw from your purchase without giving a reason. If you expressly asked for the service to start during the withdrawal period and then withdraw, you may have to pay a proportionate amount for the service already provided. To withdraw, contact the merchant of record for your purchase (Link support for Mac, Apple for iPhone) or email us at support@vibeconsole.dev.

One customer may enroll one Mac and one iPhone. Adding a device beyond the limit requires you to choose and revoke an existing device; we do not remove one automatically. An iPhone may subscribe without first owning a Mac, but using Remote requires a Mac that is on, paired and reachable. A subscription does not pair devices or turn on Connect from anywhere on your Mac for you.

3. Remote connection

Connect from anywhere uses an end-to-end encrypted relay we operate. The relay forwards the traffic but cannot read terminal content, and it stores no session content or connection history. It may be unavailable because your Mac is off or asleep, a network is down, or the service is interrupted. Same-network connections do not pass through our servers, but, like relayed connections, they work only while Vibe Console on the Mac has an active trial, subscription or earlier permanent license. Connection metadata is described in our Privacy Policy.

4. Earlier permanent licenses

Customers who bought the earlier one-time Mac license through Polar keep their Mac access for life under the terms of that purchase. Their license does not expire merely because the new subscription plans exist. Connect from anywhere is a separate subscription feature. Earlier purchases and refunds remain subject to the terms offered when those purchases were made.

5. License and account

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the apps while you have trial, subscription or earlier permanent access. The apps are licensed, not sold; we and our licensors keep all rights not expressly granted here. Do not share, sell, rent or sublicense the apps or your access credentials. Apple's applicable App Store terms also govern Vibe Remote obtained through the App Store.

You can delete your customer account from either app. Deletion revokes its devices and pairings but does not cancel Apple or Link billing, remove files on your Mac, or cancel an earlier permanent Mac license. The app shows a billing warning and a management route before deletion.

6. Updates and third-party tools

We may update the apps and Services while they are offered. An active subscription covers access during its paid period; an earlier permanent license keeps the rights promised at its purchase. Agent CLIs, skills and services you install or sign in to yourself, such as Claude Code, Codex and Gemini CLI, are provided under their own terms. You are responsible for those accounts and their usage. We do not provide access to AI models.

7. Restrictions

You may not, and may not allow others to:

8. Disclaimer

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. The apps run commands and agents with your access to your files; you are responsible for what you run and for keeping backups of your work.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits or business arising from use of or inability to use the Services. Our total liability for a claim relating to the Services is limited to the amount you paid for them. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations; in that case they apply only as far as permitted.

10. Termination

Subscription access ends when its paid entitlement ends. We may end access if you materially breach these terms, subject to applicable law. Ending an account does not cancel billing; manage it with the merchant. Restrictions, ownership, disclaimer, liability and general terms survive termination to the extent applicable.

11. General

These terms are governed by the laws applicable at our US place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and do not limit mandatory consumer rights where you live. If a provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. We may update these terms; changes do not remove rights already granted under an earlier permanent purchase.
