AI Disclaimer
Last updated: October 18, 2026
1. AI-Generated Content Has Limits
Custom AI Works' free tools (Grant Match, Business Plan Architect, IdeaForge) and consulting deliverables use artificial intelligence. AI systems — including the large language models that power our tools — can and do make mistakes. Outputs may contain:
- Inaccuracies or "hallucinations" — plausible-sounding statements that are factually wrong, including invented names, dates, statistics, or citations.
- Outdated information — training data has a cutoff date; real-world facts (prices, deadlines, regulations, company details) may have changed.
- Biased or incomplete perspectives — outputs reflect patterns in training data and may miss context specific to your situation.
Always verify important information independently before acting on it.
2. Not Professional Advice
Nothing produced by our AI tools constitutes professional advice of any kind, including:
- Legal advice — consult a licensed attorney for legal questions.
- Financial or investment advice — consult a qualified financial advisor.
- Medical or health advice — consult a licensed healthcare professional.
- Tax advice — consult a CPA or tax professional.
Our tools are starting points for your own research and judgment — not substitutes for qualified professionals.
3. Grant Information — Verify Before Applying
Grant Match is designed to surface real, verifiable grant opportunities, and every result is grounded in live search or official registries. Even so:
- Deadlines change, programs close early when funds are exhausted, and eligibility rules are updated without notice.
- Always confirm deadlines, eligibility, and application requirements on the funder's official website before investing time in an application.
- We are not affiliated with any grantor, and a grant appearing in our tool is not an endorsement or a guarantee of funding.
4. Business Plans — Starting Points, Not Blueprints
Business Plan Architect generates structured drafts from your inputs. These are starting frameworks, not professionally vetted business plans:
- Financial projections are illustrative estimates based on your inputs and general patterns — not forecasts, and not a substitute for proper financial modeling.
- Market and competitor information should be validated through your own research.
- Have a qualified advisor review any plan before presenting it to investors, lenders, or partners.
5. Idea Validation — Estimates, Not Guarantees
IdeaForge scores and analyses (including market-sizing estimates and trend assessments) are algorithmic estimates produced by AI agents from available data:
- A high score is not a guarantee of business success; a low score is not proof an idea will fail.
- Market-size figures are estimates with stated confidence levels and sources — read the sources, understand the methodology, and do your own diligence.
- Personas and simulated customer voices are explicitly labeled as simulated — they are brainstorming aids, not real customer research.
6. Your Responsibility
You are responsible for:
- Evaluating AI outputs for accuracy and appropriateness before relying on them.
- Obtaining professional advice where the stakes warrant it.
- Complying with all laws and regulations in how you use information from our tools.
To the extent permitted by law, Custom AI Works is not liable for decisions you make based on AI-generated content. See the Terms of Service for our limitation of liability.
7. We Design for Honesty
Unlike many AI tools, ours are built under a strict honesty rule: real data or clearly labeled estimates — never fabricated facts presented as truth. Where our tools cannot verify something, they say so. Where content is simulated, it is labeled. If you ever catch one of our tools presenting something false as fact, please tell us at support@customaiworks.com — that's a bug, and we want to fix it.
