Veamcast

Early Adopters Program terms

Last updated 28 October 2026.

This page has two halves. The part about what the preview is and what you accept by using it applies to you now, and every sign-in and sign-up screen in Veamcast points here for it. The part about pricing and billing is deliberately unwritten: those terms will be settled with the first group who join, because doing that together is the whole point of the program.

Veamcast is in preview. Things will not work. This is unfinished software that we are building in the open. Features are missing, features are broken, features behave differently from how they are described, and data can be lost. If you use Veamcast you are accepting that, as is, with no warranty and no recourse against us for what it costs you. That is what the rest of this page spells out, and it is the deal: you get in early, and in exchange you carry the risk of early.

None of our terms are final yet. Every Veamcast policy, this page included, is a working draft that has not been through its final legal review. We publish them as they stand so you can read what we actually do today, and the wording will change once a lawyer has been through them. All of them are gathered on veamcast.com/compliance.html.

Veamcast is a preview, and this is what you agree to

Veamcast is pre-release software in active daily development. It is made available to you for evaluation and feedback, not as a finished product, and not as something you should depend on. By signing in, creating an account, installing or using any Veamcast app or site, or joining the Early Adopters Program, you acknowledge and agree to everything in this section.

Things will not work

Features will be missing, incomplete or broken. Buttons that do nothing, screens that fail to load, and features described on this site that are not finished are all expected conditions of a preview, not breaches of an agreement.
Features will change, break or disappear without notice. Anything in Veamcast today can be altered or removed tomorrow, including features you have come to rely on and features you were charged nothing for.
Your data can be lost, corrupted, exposed or deleted. Channels, videos, recordings, email, contacts, drafts, settings, viewer and subscriber counts, and statistics may be wiped or reset, in whole or in part, deliberately or by accident, with or without warning and with no ability to restore them. Keep your own copies of anything you care about. Veamcast is not a backup.
Deliveries can fail. Email, uploads, downloads, broadcasts, notifications, invitations, payouts and reports may fail, arrive late, arrive twice, arrive incomplete, go to the wrong person, or never arrive at all.
Service can be interrupted or withdrawn at any time. Including during a live broadcast, including permanently, including for your account specifically, and including without notice to you.
Security and privacy protections are not proven. We mean the Privacy Policy and we work to it, but preview software has not been hardened or independently audited. Do not put anything through Veamcast that would harm you if it leaked.
Numbers you see may be wrong. Analytics, viewer counts, earnings estimates, delivery statistics and billing previews during the preview are indicative only, are frequently wrong, and must not be relied on for any decision, commitment or representation to anyone else.
Nothing we have published is a promise about a future release. Roadmaps, changelogs, blog posts, marketing pages, pricing descriptions, recruitment emails and conversations with us are statements of present intention, not commitments, and they do not form part of any agreement between us.

You choose to be here

Nobody has to use preview software. You are choosing to, with the above in front of you, and you accept the entire risk of doing so. In particular you agree not to use Veamcast during the preview for anything where a failure would cause you real harm: not for a broadcast you have sold or promised to anyone, not as the only copy of work you cannot recreate, not as your only mailbox, and not for anything with a legal, medical, financial, safety or emergency consequence attached to it.

If you would not be able to shrug off Veamcast losing it or failing at the worst possible moment, do not put it in Veamcast yet.

No warranty

VEAMCAST, INCLUDING ALL VEAMCAST SOFTWARE, APPS, SITES, SERVICES, APIS, DOCUMENTATION AND SUPPORT, IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, VEAMCAST AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, SUPPLIERS AND LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS AND REPRESENTATIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, WORKMANLIKE EFFORT AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE OR TRADE PRACTICE.

VEAMCAST DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PREVIEW WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, THAT IT WILL BE AVAILABLE, UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE OR ERROR FREE, THAT ANY DEFECT WILL BE CORRECTED, THAT ANY FEATURE WILL EVER BE COMPLETED OR RETAINED, OR THAT ANY CONTENT, MESSAGE, RECORDING, SETTING OR OTHER DATA WILL BE STORED, PRESERVED, DELIVERED, RECOVERABLE OR ACCURATE.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM VEAMCAST OR THROUGH THE PREVIEW CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.

Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, VEAMCAST AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, SUPPLIERS AND LICENSORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, EARNINGS, SAVINGS, BUSINESS, CONTRACTS, GOODWILL, REPUTATION, AUDIENCE, SUBSCRIBERS, SPONSORSHIPS, OPPORTUNITY, CONTENT OR DATA, OR ANY COST OF PROCURING SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE PREVIEW, YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE IT, ANY INTERRUPTION, DEFECT, DELAY, FAILED OR MISDIRECTED DELIVERY, LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA, UNAUTHORISED ACCESS, OR THE MODIFICATION, SUSPENSION OR DISCONTINUATION OF ANY FEATURE OR OF VEAMCAST ITSELF.

THIS APPLIES WHETHER THE CLAIM IS BROUGHT IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, WARRANTY, STATUTE OR ANY OTHER THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT VEAMCAST WAS ADVISED OF, OR SHOULD HAVE FORESEEN, THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS.

IN NO EVENT WILL THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF VEAMCAST AND THE PARTIES LISTED ABOVE, FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE PREVIEW TAKEN TOGETHER, EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID VEAMCAST IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT FIRST GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (USD 100). WHERE YOU HAVE PAID VEAMCAST NOTHING, WHICH IS THE CASE FOR EVERY EARLY ADOPTER UNTIL WRITTEN BILLING TERMS EXIST, THAT CAP IS USD 100 IN TOTAL.

THESE LIMITS ARE A FUNDAMENTAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN US AND APPLY EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. WITHOUT THEM, VEAMCAST WOULD NOT MAKE THE PREVIEW AVAILABLE AT ALL.

Your only remedy

YOU AGREE THAT YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY DISSATISFACTION WITH THE PREVIEW, AND FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE ARISING FROM IT, IS TO STOP USING VEAMCAST AND TO CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT. YOU HAVE NO OTHER RECOURSE AGAINST VEAMCAST FOR ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT WORK, STOPS WORKING, OR IS LOST DURING THE PREVIEW, AND NO ENTITLEMENT TO ANY REFUND, CREDIT, COMPENSATION, SERVICE LEVEL, RESTORATION, REPAIR, REPLACEMENT OR CONTINUED AVAILABILITY OF ANY FEATURE.

Closing your account, and having your data corrected or removed, is explained at correcting or removing your data. We would much rather hear what went wrong: support@veamcast.com, and a person reads it.

What none of this takes away from you

This page is written to be as clear as we can make it about who carries the risk of unfinished software. It is not an attempt to take away rights you cannot be asked to give up, and it does not do so.

Nothing here excludes or limits liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
Nothing here affects any statutory or consumer right you have that cannot be waived by agreement. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so parts of the two sections above may not apply to you.
If any part of this page is held unenforceable, it is to be narrowed to the minimum extent needed to make it enforceable rather than struck out, and the rest of the page stands.
Our commitments under the Privacy Policy about what we collect and what we do with it are real commitments, and this page is not a licence to ignore them.
The promises in what we have already committed to below are also real, and are not disclaimed by anything above.

Feedback

The program runs on feedback, so there is no process to go through: tell us anything, at any length, at any time. Feedback you give us is given freely. We may use it, act on it, build it, publish it in a changelog or ignore it, without owing you payment, credit or confidentiality for it, and without it giving you any claim over what gets built. You keep the right to use your own ideas however you like; we are not taking them from you, only declining to owe you for them.

Pricing and billing: why there is nothing here yet

Veamcast is early. How it charges, how creators earn, and how viewers find work are all still open, and we would rather answer those with the creators publishing here than announce them afterwards. Writing a full commercial agreement today would mean guessing at numbers nobody can honestly set until real channels run at real volume, and then asking the first batch to sign it.

So the commercial terms get written from what the first sign ups tell us, and this section gets replaced with them. The preview terms above are not waiting on that and apply now.

What we have already committed to in writing

These parts are not placeholders. They are the promises made on the Early Adopters page, and they stand whatever the final commercial terms say:

You get written terms before you are billed for anything. Nothing is charged to an early adopter account before there is an agreement in front of you to read.
Batch 1 pays the lowest markup we will ever charge, and the rate you join at is the rate you keep, through launch and after.
Every batch after yours pays more, and your deal does not move when theirs does.
Public pricing gets written from what we learn together: your real bills, your real usage, and your answers on what counts as fair.
The revenue share fee is waived for early adopters. That is the revenue share tier's fee, waived for any early adopter who chooses that tier. Batch 1 members in the "Your own advertising" tier pay no revenue share fee at all, because Veamcast takes no share of what their own ads earn; they pay metered delivery plus the lowest markup Veamcast will ever charge.

What joining commits you to today

Nothing to pay. There are no pricing or billing terms yet to agree to, and none are being slipped past you. What you are agreeing to is the preview: the as is, no warranty and no recourse terms above, which are the condition of being let in this early.

Joining also puts your address in the early adopter group and gets your answers in front of us while the decisions are still open. The tick on the join form covers this page together with the policies gathered on veamcast.com/compliance.html: the Terms of Service, the Privacy Policy, the DMCA process and the licence. Those govern your account and your use of Veamcast now. Where this page and another policy disagree about the preview, this page governs the preview.

You can leave the program, or have your data corrected or removed, at any point. See correcting or removing your data.

What is still open

The questions the first batch is being asked to help answer, and therefore the parts of the commercial terms that do not exist yet:

What the delivery markup should be on a channel that runs its own advertising, and what a statement has to show you to believe it.
How the revenue share split works, and what verification for that tier involves.
How the content standard is applied: how disputes work, and what you are owed when something is flagged.
What the program asks of an early adopter in return, if anything, and how somebody leaves it or is moved out of it.
How long the batch 1 rate is held, and in what writing.

When this gets written

When the first batch has told us enough to answer the questions above, and in any case before any early adopter is billed. The terms will be published here, and everybody in the group gets them by email at the address they joined with rather than having to find this page again.

We may update this page as the preview changes. The date at the top is when it last moved, and material changes go to the group by email rather than only appearing here. Carrying on using Veamcast after a change means the updated page applies to you.

Until then, treat anything you read elsewhere about early adopter pricing as a description of what we intend, not a contract. If something on another page contradicts this one, this page is the one that is current, and we would like to hear about it at support@veamcast.com.

Questions

The program, these terms, the policies, or help with your account, all at one address: support@veamcast.com.

There is no separate queue for any of those. It is one small team and one mailbox, and a person reads it.
