Terms

Last updated: 25 July 2026.

Croft is a product of Lupchoo Limited, a company registered in New Zealand (“Croft”, “we”, “us”). These terms cover your use of Croft. By signing up, you agree to them. If you’re agreeing on behalf of a business, you’re confirming you’re allowed to.

These terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand, and the New Zealand courts have jurisdiction over any dispute — though if you’re a consumer, you keep the protections of the law where you live.

What Croft gives you

A private server (your “croft”), a login system for your workspace, and the caretaking around it — backups, updates, monitoring, and security patches. You use Claude to build and change the apps that run on your croft. Croft is the ground; Claude does the building.

You need your own Claude subscription to build and fix apps. That relationship is between you and Anthropic, under their terms.

Your trial

New crofts start with a 14-day free trial. You can cancel any time during the trial and pay nothing. If you don’t cancel, your subscription begins at the end of the trial at the current price.

Price and billing

Croft costs $29 per month, billed in advance, for one private server with up to 10 apps and up to 25 people. The price is flat: no per-use metering, no credits, no surprise charges. If we ever change the price, we’ll tell you before it affects you. Taxes may apply depending on where you are.

Your responsibilities

Keep your login secure and don’t share it in ways that put your people’s data at risk.
Only add people to your croft that you have a reason to, and treat their data properly.
Use Croft lawfully. Don’t use it to store or share illegal content, to harm others, or to break these terms.
The apps you build are yours to run. You’re responsible for what they do and the data you put in them.

Acceptable use

Croft is built for small, private apps for people who know each other. It isn’t for public sign-ups from strangers, mass mailing, or serving large public audiences. We may ask you to stop, or suspend a croft, if its use threatens the platform or other crofts, or breaks the law. Where we reasonably can, we’ll warn you first.

Your data and content

You own your apps, your code, and your data. You grant us only the access we need to host, back up, support, and maintain your croft. You can export everything, and if you leave we’ll hand it over — data, code, and, if you want, the whole server transferred to your own hosting account.

Availability

We work hard to keep Croft up and your data safe, with backups and restore drills. But no service is perfect. Croft is provided “as is”, and to the extent the law allows, we don’t give warranties beyond those we can’t exclude. Keep your own copy of anything you truly can’t afford to lose — exports are always available.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you for any claim relating to Croft is limited to the fees you paid us in the twelve months before the claim. We’re not liable for indirect or consequential losses. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can’t legally be limited.

Cancelling and ending

You can cancel any time. Your apps keep running until the end of the current billing period, after which we provide an export and wind down your croft. We may end an account for a serious or repeated breach of these terms, giving notice and a chance to export where we reasonably can.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as Croft evolves. If a change materially affects you, we’ll give reasonable notice. Continuing to use Croft after a change means you accept the updated terms.
