Terms of Service

中文版 →

Effective date: 10 November 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of 6bee.ai (the “Service”), run by the operator of 6bee.ai (“6bee”, “we”, “us”). By creating an account, topping up, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms, including the Acceptable Use rules in Section 7. The Refund Policy is part of these Terms, and our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal data. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. The Service

• 6bee.ai provides paid API access to open-weight large language models, served by third-party inference services (“upstream providers”) or by servers we run ourselves, aimed mainly at coding tools and AI agents.
• The Service consists of:
  • www.6bee.ai: information website;
  • console.6bee.ai: account portal for sign-up, API keys, usage records, and top-ups;
  • api.6bee.ai: the API, currently offering /v1/models, /v1/chat/completions (OpenAI format), /v1/messages (Anthropic format) and /v1/responses (OpenAI Responses format), with streaming via server-sent events (SSE).
• “OpenAI-compatible” means the request format is broadly similar. Not every parameter or feature of other APIs is supported, and behavior differs between models.
• Unless we expressly say otherwise, 6bee.ai is not affiliated with or endorsed by any upstream provider. Model names and trademarks belong to their owners.
• Beta. The Service is currently in beta and provided on a best-effort basis. There is no service level agreement (SLA). We do not guarantee availability, latency, or response quality.

2. Models, Prices and Availability

• Available models, their prices, context limits, and other parameters are shown in the console and through /v1/models. Any of them may change, be suspended, or be withdrawn at any time, including because an upstream provider changes or revokes our access. We may not be able to give advance notice.
• We are not responsible for upstream outages, changes in model behavior, or the withdrawal of a model. Upstream providers may also refuse, filter, or block requests on their own.
• Models apply different content restrictions, and some models we offer may apply fewer content restrictions than mainstream AI assistants. This does not change what you are allowed to do. The Acceptable Use rules in Section 7 apply in full, regardless of what a model is willing to generate.

3. Eligibility and Accounts

• You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding contract. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you confirm that you are authorized to bind it, and “you” includes that organization.
• The Service is not offered to persons located in mainland China, or in countries or regions subject to comprehensive sanctions. You are responsible for making sure your use of the Service is lawful where you are.
• One account per person or organization. Automated or bulk account creation is not allowed.
• Sign-up requires email verification and a CAPTCHA check (Cloudflare Turnstile). We do not ask for your real name, phone number or identity documents. Keep your sign-up email address working, because we use it for important notices.
• We may refuse service or decline to open an account at our discretion.

4. Account Security and API Keys

• Keep your password and API keys secret. Do not put keys in public code, client-side applications, or shared repositories.
• You are responsible for all usage and charges under your account and API keys, whether or not you authorized them. If you suspect a key has been exposed, delete it in the console immediately and contact support@6bee.ai.
• We recommend enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) or a passkey.

5. Billing, Credits and Refunds

• Prepaid only. The Service uses a prepaid balance (“credits”). There is no credit line, no post-paid billing, and no automatic recharge. Prices are in US dollars (USD). Taxes: prices shown do not include any taxes that may apply where you are; if such taxes apply, you bear them.
• Usage charges. Usage is charged per token at the prices shown in the console at the time of each request. Price changes apply to requests made after the change.
• Reservation and settlement. Before a request is sent to the upstream provider, the system reserves (pre-authorizes) an estimated amount from your balance. After the request completes, the actual cost is settled and any difference is returned to or deducted from your balance. If your balance cannot cover the reserved amount, the request may be rejected.
• Billing is based on the token counts and charges recorded by our system. Requests that are interrupted or cancelled, including streams, may be charged for tokens already processed. If you think a charge is wrong, contact support@6bee.ai with the request ID.
• Payments. Top-ups are made through the payment methods shown in the console, currently bank card (processed by Stripe; 6bee never stores card details), Alipay, and USDT and USDC (charged 1:1 with the USD price). When you pay in cryptocurrency you must send the exact amount, on the network and to the address shown for the order; losses caused by a wrong network, address or amount are yours, and we may not be able to recover them. If a payment is reversed or charged back, we may remove the corresponding credits and suspend the account until the matter is resolved.
• Credits are not transferable, have no cash value, and can only be used for the Service.
• Refunds. Credits are a digital good and are delivered when the top-up is credited. Consumed credits are never refunded, and unused balance is not refunded either; the only exceptions are set out in the Refund Policy. If you delete your account, or we terminate it because you breached these Terms, any remaining balance is forfeited unless the law requires otherwise.

6. Usage Limits

• Per-account limits apply. They may include requests per minute, concurrent requests, tokens per minute, maximum output tokens, and maximum request size. Limits may differ by account or model and may change at any time.
• Requests over a limit may be rejected or delayed. You must not try to get around limits (see Section 7).

7. Acceptable Use

You are solely responsible for your inputs, for the outputs you request, and for how you use them. You must not use the Service, or help or allow anyone else to use it, for:

1. any illegal activity, or content or conduct that violates applicable law;
2. any sexual content involving minors, in any form, including fictional, drawn, or AI-generated content;
3. non-consensual intimate imagery, including creating, altering, or distributing sexual or intimate content depicting a real person without that person’s consent;
4. creating, distributing, or deploying malware or ransomware, or attacking, intruding into, or disrupting any system, network, or service without authorization;
5. fraud, scams, phishing, spam, or impersonating any person or organization;
6. harassment, threats, or incitement of violence;
7. content that facilitates developing, acquiring, or using weapons capable of mass casualties (including biological, chemical, nuclear, or radiological weapons);
8. infringing others’ intellectual property or privacy rights, including unlawfully collecting or processing personal data;
9. circumventing or attempting to circumvent rate limits, billing, metering, or security controls, including by using multiple accounts;
10. reselling access to the Service, or sharing your account or API keys with others, without our prior written permission;
11. attempting to access other customers’ accounts or data, the administrative interface, or any non-public part of the Service, or probing or scanning the Service for vulnerabilities without our permission.

Using outputs. Outputs are generated automatically and can be inaccurate, incomplete, insecure, or offensive. You must review outputs, including generated code, before relying on or deploying them, and must not use them as the sole basis for medical, legal, financial, or safety-critical decisions.

Enforcement. We do not routinely review the content of your requests, and we do not store prompt or completion content in our logs. We may investigate based on usage metadata, abuse reports, or notices from upstream providers or authorities. If we believe you have violated this Section, we may, without prior notice, block requests, revoke API keys, suspend or terminate your account, and report to the relevant authorities where we believe the law requires it.

Reporting abuse. Send reports of suspected abuse to abuse@6bee.ai, including the time, a description, and request IDs if available. Do not attach child sexual abuse material or other illegal content to a report; describe it instead.

8. Your Content and Outputs

• “Inputs” are what you send to the Service; “outputs” are what it returns. As between you and 6bee, you keep whatever rights you have in your inputs, and 6bee claims no ownership of outputs. Outputs may not be unique, and other users may receive similar outputs.
• You permit us to process and transmit your inputs and outputs as needed to operate the Service, including sending them to the upstream provider of the model you select. That provider may process and retain them under its own terms.
• We do not use your inputs or outputs to train models.
• You must have all rights and permissions needed for the inputs you submit. Do not include sensitive personal data in requests unless it is necessary.

9. Our Rights

The Service, including the websites, console, and API (but not your content or third-party models), belongs to 6bee or its licensors. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Service under these Terms. If you send us feedback, we may use it freely without any obligation to you.

10. Suspension and Termination

• You may stop using the Service at any time and may delete your account in the console. Deleting your account disables your API keys; any remaining balance is handled as described in Section 5.
• We may suspend or terminate your account, or refuse service, if you violate these Terms, if we suspect abuse or fraud, if there is a security risk to the Service, other customers, or upstream providers, or if the law or an upstream provider requires it. Where reasonably possible, we will tell you by email.
• We may also stop offering the Service or terminate your account without cause. Where reasonably possible we will give advance notice, and we will refund your unused balance as described in Section 5.
• Sections 5, 7, 8, and 11 to 16, and any other terms that by their nature should survive, continue to apply after termination.

11. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service and all outputs are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, non-infringement, and uninterrupted or error-free operation. We do not warrant that any model will remain available or behave consistently. Outputs can be wrong, and you must review them.

12. Limitation of Liability

• To the maximum extent permitted by law, 6bee, its operator, staff, and suppliers are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to the Service.
• The Service is a pay-as-you-go API: you pay for the tokens you consume, and we promise no compensation beyond that. To the maximum extent permitted by law, 6bee has no liability to you for damages arising from the Service or its outputs, including outages, withdrawn models, wrong output, lost data, or losses from your use of any output.
• Where the law of a jurisdiction does not allow liability to be excluded entirely, our total liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the amounts you paid to 6bee for the Service in the 30 days before the event giving rise to the claim.
• Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law.

13. Indemnity

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless 6bee, its operator, and staff from and against any claims, losses, and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Service, your inputs or your use of outputs, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms. For material changes, we will notify you by email or in the console at least 7 days before they take effect. If you continue to use the Service after the effective date, you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service and delete your account.

15. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the place where the operator of 6bee.ai is established, and disputes will be resolved by the competent courts there. If mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence apply to you, these Terms do not take away the protection those laws give you. Before starting formal proceedings, please contact support@6bee.ai so we can try to resolve the issue informally.

16. General

• Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, the Refund Policy and the prices and limits shown in the console, are the entire agreement between you and 6bee about the Service and replace any earlier understandings.
• Severability. If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, it will be limited to the minimum extent necessary, and the rest of these Terms remain in effect.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment. You may not transfer your account or these Terms without our written consent. We may transfer these Terms as part of a reorganization or transfer of the Service, with notice to you.
• Language. These Terms are provided in Chinese and English. If the two versions conflict, the Chinese version prevails.
• Notices. We send notices to your account email address or through the console.
