Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Sholtis Labs, LLC ("Company," "we," "us") governing your access to and use of the Agent Outpost platform ("Platform"), including all features, content, and services available at agentoutpost.ai.
By creating an account, browsing listings, making a purchase, or listing a product on Agent Outpost, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.
Read this carefully. Section 12 limits our liability. Section 15 governs dispute resolution and requires arbitration. By continuing, you acknowledge you have read and understood these provisions.
The Platform
Agent Outpost is a two-sided marketplace that enables independent sellers ("Sellers") to list AI-powered agents, tools, automation products, and related services, and enables buyers ("Buyers") to discover, evaluate, and purchase those products.
Sholtis Labs, LLC is a marketplace operator, not a seller. We do not create, own, or warrant any of the AI agents or products listed on the Platform. We provide infrastructure — listings, payments, messaging, reviews, and dispute resolution — but the contractual relationship for any purchased product is between Buyer and Seller.
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Platform at any time with reasonable notice to registered users.
Accounts
Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old to create an account. You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater) to make or receive payments through the Platform.
Registration
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep your profile information up to date. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for all activity that occurs under your account.
Account Security
You must notify us immediately at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized access to your account. We are not liable for losses resulting from unauthorized use of your account caused by your failure to safeguard your credentials.
One Account Per Person
You may not create multiple accounts to circumvent restrictions, bans, or platform rules. Duplicate accounts are subject to immediate termination.
Sellers
Seller Activation
To sell on Agent Outpost, you must activate a seller account and connect a valid Stripe payout method. By activating a seller account, you also agree to Stripe's Stripe Connected Account Agreement.
Seller Responsibilities
As a Seller, you are solely responsible for:
- The accuracy, legality, and completeness of your listing content
- Delivering the product or service described in your listing within the promised timeframe
- Providing adequate support and documentation to Buyers post-purchase
- Ensuring your listings do not infringe third-party intellectual property rights
- Complying with all applicable laws, including export control laws if your product is distributed internationally
- Reporting and paying any taxes owed on your sales proceeds
Seller Representations
By listing on Agent Outpost, you represent and warrant that: (a) you own or have the necessary rights to sell the listed product; (b) the product functions materially as described; and (c) the listing does not misrepresent the product's capabilities.
Subscription Seller Obligations
Sellers offering subscription-based products are responsible for maintaining ongoing product access and functionality for active subscribers. Discontinuing a subscription product requires at least 30 days' advance notice to active subscribers and to Agent Outpost. Sellers must not materially degrade product functionality for existing subscribers without notice and without offering a pro-rated refund option.
Payouts
Seller payouts are processed via Stripe Connect after deduction of the platform fee. Payout timing is governed by Stripe's payout schedule (typically 2–7 business days after transaction settlement). Agent Outpost reserves the right to hold payouts for up to 30 days pending dispute resolution or fraud review. Sellers must maintain a valid Stripe Connect account in good standing to receive payouts; failure to do so may result in payout delays or suspension of selling privileges.
Buyers
Purchases
Agent Outpost facilitates transactions between Buyers and Sellers. All charges will appear on your payment statement as "Agent Outpost" or "Sholtis Labs." While Sholtis Labs, LLC is responsible for payment processing, Sellers are solely responsible for their own tax obligations and compliance with applicable law.
Delivery
Digital products (zip archives, scripts, playbooks, API keys, agent credentials, license keys, and access codes) are delivered automatically upon payment confirmation via email and your Buyer dashboard at agentoutpost.ai/dashboard. License keys issued through the Agent Outpost License Server are tied to the email address used at checkout and are non-transferable unless otherwise stated in the listing. For custom or service-based listings, delivery terms are set by the Seller in the listing description. You should review these terms before purchasing.
Buyer Responsibility
You are responsible for ensuring that the product you purchase is appropriate for your intended use. AI agents and tools may have limitations, produce incorrect outputs, or require technical expertise to deploy. We recommend reviewing listing descriptions, reviews, and seller profiles before purchasing.
Subscriptions
Some listings offer monthly or annual subscription access. Subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each billing period unless cancelled before the renewal date from your Buyer dashboard or by contacting [email protected]. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you retain access until that date. Refunds for subscription renewals are at Agent Outpost's discretion per the Refund Policy in Section 8.
Chargebacks
Initiating a chargeback through your card issuer without first attempting resolution through our dispute process is a violation of these Terms and may result in account suspension and forfeiture of any pending seller payouts.
Listings & Content
Listing Standards
All listings must accurately describe the product or service being sold. Listings must include a clear description, accurate pricing, and realistic delivery timeframe. Misleading, deceptive, or fraudulent listings are prohibited and will be removed.
Prohibited Listings
The following are not permitted on Agent Outpost:
- Agents designed to scrape, spam, defraud, or harass individuals or organizations
- Malware, exploits, or tools designed to compromise computer systems
- Products that violate export control laws or sanctions
- Listings that infringe on the intellectual property of third parties
- Adult content, illegal services, or anything prohibited by applicable law
- Products that claim to provide medical, legal, or financial advice as a regulated professional service
Content Moderation
We reserve the right to remove any listing at any time, with or without notice, if we determine it violates these Terms, our content policies, or applicable law. Repeat violations will result in seller suspension.
User-Generated Content
By posting reviews, messages, or other content on the Platform, you grant Sholtis Labs, LLC a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to display and use that content to operate the Platform. You retain ownership of your content but warrant that it does not violate any third-party rights.
Fees & Payments
Agent Outpost charges a platform fee on each completed transaction. Platform fees are tiered based on your prior-quarter gross sales volume (GMV) and are deducted from the seller payout at time of purchase. The current fee structure is:
| Seller Tier | Prior-Quarter GMV | Platform Fee | Seller Receives |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rookie | $0 – $2,499 | 7% | 93% of transaction value |
| Seller | $2,500 – $9,999 | 6% | 94% of transaction value |
| Pro | $10,000+ | 5% | 95% of transaction value |
| New sellers start at the Rookie tier. Tier upgrades are assessed at the start of each calendar quarter based on prior-quarter GMV. | |||
| Other Fees | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Stripe processing fee | ~2.9% + $0.30 (Buyer) | Standard Stripe card processing; charged to Buyer at checkout |
| Listing fee | Free | No charge to list; we earn only on completed sales |
| Payout fee | Free | Standard Stripe payout; no additional Agent Outpost charge |
We reserve the right to modify our fee structure with 30 days' advance notice to registered sellers via email and platform announcement. Fee changes do not apply to transactions already in progress.
Taxes
Sellers are solely responsible for determining, collecting, and remitting any applicable sales, VAT, GST, or other taxes on their sales. Agent Outpost does not collect or remit taxes on behalf of Sellers unless required by law. We may issue 1099-K forms to US-based sellers as required by IRS reporting thresholds.
Disputes & Refunds
Dispute Process
If you have an issue with a transaction — non-delivery, product not as described, or seller unresponsiveness — you should:
- First contact the Seller directly via the platform's messaging system
- If unresolved within 48 hours, open a formal dispute via the Disputes page
- Agent Outpost will review the dispute and may request evidence from both parties
- Agent Outpost's decision on disputes is final within the platform
Refund Policy
Because most products on Agent Outpost are digital (API keys, agent credentials, access links), all sales are final by default. Refunds may be issued at Agent Outpost's discretion in the following cases:
- The product was not delivered within the stated timeframe
- The product materially fails to function as described in the listing
- The listing was fraudulent or contained materially false information
- Duplicate payment due to a platform or payment processing error
All sales are final. Refunds are issued only at Sholtis Labs, LLC's sole discretion in cases of verified technical failure preventing delivery of the purchased product. To request a review, contact support within 7 days of purchase through the Disputes process.
Chargebacks
If a Buyer initiates a chargeback with their card issuer without following the dispute process, Agent Outpost reserves the right to suspend or terminate that Buyer's account and recover any funds paid out to Sellers as a result of the chargeback.

- Use the Platform for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms
