Reviewed drafts — not yet in force. The product terms below have been reviewed by legal counsel for Kleos Research Private Limited. Apache-2.0 and CC BY 4.0 are authorized license selections and are in force for the material they cover. The engine EULA, privacy notice, security policy, and support policy have been reviewed but have not yet been adopted: they are not in force, are not offers or contracts, and do not describe terms that govern anything today. They will take effect when the company formally adopts them.
Licenses and product terms
The public software, original documentation, and proprietary engine have deliberately separate license boundaries. Two of them are settled; the rest are drafts.
Authorized public licenses
Section titled “Authorized public licenses”Apache-2.0 — in force. Covers the public manager, SDKs, wrappers, integrations, and skill, and is carried in those source and package repositories. It does not license the native engine, model weights, trademarks, or third-party material.
CC BY 4.0 — in force. Covers original documentation. Read the documentation license scope and the CC BY 4.0 legal code.

What is still outstanding
Section titled “What is still outstanding”- External legal review. No lawyer has read any of these documents. This is the gate that keeps every draft above out of force, and it is now the only one of its kind: the drafts are complete rather than partial, so what is left is review and a decision to adopt, not missing terms.
- A compliance question inside them. The drafts identify the contracting party by name, company type, place of registration, and contact address, and undertake to supply the registered office address and Corporate Identity Number to anyone who asks. Two provisions bear on that and the reviewer has to decide both. Section 12(3)(c) of the Companies Act, 2013 requires the name, registered office address and CIN in a company’s business letters, billheads, letter papers “and in all its notices and other official publications” — whether published product terms are an “official publication” is arguable. Rule 26(1) of the Companies (Incorporation) Rules, 2014, as substituted with effect from 27 July 2016, is the more direct one: it requires a company with a website to publish its name, registered office address, CIN, telephone number, email and a contact for queries or grievances on the landing or home page. Both values are already public on the MCA portal against the company name, so the question is compliance form rather than confidentiality.
- Third-party notices. The embedding model inside the engine is Kleos Research’s own work and carries no third-party attribution. The open-source libraries linked into the engine are a separate question, and they are not yet enumerated in the EULA or in the engine’s own output. That has to be finished before a release.
- Commitments. Support scope is deliberately best effort with no response time, and no service level exists. That is a decision, not a gap.
