Terms & Conditions
These terms cover Blueprint Sessions, Builds and Ongoing Optimisation engagements with Vinci Advisory. Plain English where we can. Precise where we need to be.
Last updated May 2026
These Terms & Conditions form the agreement between you (the Client) and AI Guy Business Solutions Pty Ltd trading as Vinci Advisory (ABN 21 675 514 351) (Vinci, we, us) when you engage us to deliver a Blueprint Session, a Build, or Ongoing Optimisation.
By paying our invoice for a Blueprint Session, accepting a Build scope, or continuing under an Ongoing Optimisation arrangement, you agree to these terms.
Blueprint Session — A two-hour working session with your team, followed by approximately one week of architecture work, ending in an architected plan delivered to you in written form. The plan is yours.
Build — Design, development and delivery of the systems, integrations and automations scoped in your Blueprint, quoted exactly from the Blueprint with no surprise add-ons. Builds are delivered in phases — usable output ships at every stage.
Ongoing Optimisation — A monthly partnership scoped per business, covering monitoring, maintenance and iterative improvement of the systems we built, plus priority access for new work.
Blueprint Sessions are $1,990 (inc GST where applicable) and are paid in full before the session takes place.
Builds are quoted exactly from the Blueprint. Most fall between $3,000 and $10,000, depending on size and complexity. If you proceed with the Build within 90 days of receiving the Blueprint, the $1,990 you paid for the Blueprint is credited in full against the Build invoice.
Builds are invoiced in two stages: 50% on acceptance of scope to commence work, and 50% on phased delivery completion. Larger builds may be split into more milestones — these will be agreed in writing before work begins.
Ongoing Optimisation is invoiced monthly in advance, on the scope and price specified in your engagement letter. All invoices are due within 7 days unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Blueprint Sessions are refundable in full if, after running the session, we genuinely conclude we can't help your business or can't architect a solution worth implementing. We will tell you in writing within five business days of the session and refund the $1,990 within ten business days.
If we deliver a complete Blueprint, the session fee is not refundable — you have received the architected plan, which is yours to act on.
For Builds, deposit invoices are non-refundable once work has begun. If the Build is cancelled before any work has commenced, the deposit is refundable less any reasonable preparation time already incurred.
To deliver effectively, we need you to:
• Make the right people available for the Blueprint Session (typically you and 1–3 team members who actually run the workflows being assessed) • Provide reasonably timely access to the platforms, tools and accounts scoped in the engagement • Provide accurate information about your business and process • Review and respond to deliverables, drafts and questions within reasonable timeframes • Pay invoices on the agreed terms
If project momentum stalls on your end for more than 30 days, we may pause the engagement and resume by mutual agreement.
Once paid in full:
• The Blueprint document is yours. You may use it, share it, implement it yourself or hand it to another provider — it's not bound to us in any way. • Systems and configurations we build for you (workflows, integrations, automations, custom code, prompts, dashboards) are yours. • Documentation and training materials we produce for your team are yours.
What we keep:
• Our methodologies, frameworks, approaches and the general know-how we use to deliver. We may use these on other engagements, and we may publish anonymised case studies referencing the kind of outcome achieved, without identifying you. • The Vinci AI Platform (askvinci.xyz) and any other underlying Vinci tooling. We license it to you for the duration of the engagement and any subscription.
Any pre-existing third-party tools, plugins or libraries we integrate stay licensed under their own terms.
Information you share with us during a Blueprint or Build is confidential. We will not disclose it to anyone outside the Vinci team and the third-party service providers reasonably required to deliver the work (and only on a need-to-know basis). This obligation continues after the engagement ends.
We expect the same in reverse: our pricing, scopes, processes and any tooling we share with you under licence are also confidential to us.
Nothing in this section limits a disclosure required by law.
Builds frequently include third-party services — CRMs, accounting platforms, email systems, AI APIs and others. You remain responsible for:
• Maintaining valid subscriptions and accounts with those providers • Complying with their terms of service • Paying their fees directly (unless we have specifically agreed to pass them through)
We will tell you which third-party services are involved in your Build before you sign off the scope. If a third-party provider materially changes their terms, pricing or capability after delivery, the impact on the built system is not our responsibility, though we'll always discuss options.
Several of the systems we build use third-party AI models (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google). These models can produce outputs that are wrong, biased, or that change over time as the underlying models are updated.
We build with these realities in mind — we add validation, guardrails, human-review steps and monitoring where they matter. But you understand that AI outputs are not guaranteed and that final decisions sitting on top of AI outputs remain yours.
We provide our services with reasonable care and skill, using a level of judgement, planning and technical capability appropriate to a professional consultancy.
We make no guarantee of specific business outcomes. The plans, systems and integrations we deliver are tools — your business results depend on a wide range of factors including how the systems are used, your team's adoption, market conditions and decisions outside our scope.
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee or right under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability to you in connection with any engagement is capped at the total fees you paid us under that engagement in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
We are not liable for indirect, consequential, special or punitive damages, including loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill or loss of data — even if we were aware those losses were possible.
This section does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded.
You agree to indemnify and hold Vinci Advisory, our officers, employees and contractors harmless from any third-party claim arising from:
• Your use of any system we built once it's been handed over • Information, content or access you provided to us that was inaccurate, infringing or unlawful • Your breach of these terms
This does not apply to anything caused by our negligence or wilful misconduct.
Either party may terminate an Ongoing Optimisation arrangement with 30 days written notice. Blueprint Sessions and Builds run to their agreed scope.
We may suspend or terminate any engagement immediately if you fail to pay an undisputed invoice for more than 14 days after a written reminder, or if you breach these terms in a way that can't reasonably be cured.
On termination, all confidentiality, IP and liability provisions survive.
These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia. You and we submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Queensland.
If there's a dispute, both parties agree to first try to resolve it in good faith — a phone call between the people involved, followed if necessary by a written escalation to the directors of each business — before commencing any formal proceeding.
If any part of these terms is unenforceable, the rest remains in force.
A failure or delay by us to enforce any right is not a waiver of that right.
You cannot assign these terms or any engagement to another party without our written consent.
These terms, together with any engagement letter or scope we've signed with you, are the entire agreement between us and replace any prior discussions on the same subject matter.
