Terms of Use (EULA)
Last updated: June 1, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By purchasing, downloading, installing, accessing, or using BeatDiscovery software and related services ("Software" or "Services"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Agreement," "Terms," or "EULA"). If you do not agree, do not purchase, download, install, access, or use the Software.
This Agreement constitutes a legally binding contract between you ("User," "Customer," or "you") and Pi-99 LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our").
The Services include, without limitation: (a) the BeatDiscovery audio plugin for desktop digital audio workstations; (b) the BeatDiscoveryPi mobile application for iOS and iPadOS ("iOS App"); (c) sample packs and related content; and (d) our website at https://pi-99.com.
If you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of an organization or entity, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that entity. In such cases, "you" refers to that entity.
2. In-App Purchases and Subscriptions (iOS App)
The iOS App offers paid features through Apple In-App Purchase only. Purchases made inside the iOS App are processed by Apple; we do not offer alternative payment methods for digital content or subscriptions used in the iOS App.
2.1 Pack Pass (Auto-Renewable Subscription)
- Title: Pack Pass
- Length: One (1) month, automatically renewing each billing period until canceled
- Price: The price displayed in the iOS App at the time of purchase (e.g., monthly subscription price shown on the paywall). Apple may show applicable taxes or introductory offers where configured.
- Product ID: com.pi99.beatdiscovery.packpass
- What you receive: While an active Pack Pass subscription is linked to your Apple ID, you receive full access to iOS App features and the ability to browse and download eligible catalog sample packs offered in the iOS App.
- Free trial: If Apple displays a free trial or introductory offer, those terms are shown in the purchase sheet before you confirm. When a trial ends, your subscription renews at the standard price unless you cancel beforehand.
2.2 Own Forever (One-Time Purchase)
- Title: Own Forever
- Length: One-time, non-consumable purchase (no recurring billing)
- Price: The price displayed in the iOS App at the time of purchase, including any introductory price if offered.
- Product IDs: com.pi99.beatdiscovery.pro and com.pi99.beatdiscovery.pro.intro (introductory offer, when available)
- What you receive: Permanent unlock of full iOS App features on the purchasing Apple ID. Own Forever does not include ongoing catalog pack downloads; catalog packs require an active Pack Pass subscription unless otherwise stated in the app.
2.3 Billing, Renewal, and Cancellation
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
- Pack Pass renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Manage or cancel subscriptions in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions (or the equivalent control on your device).
- Refunds for Apple In-App Purchases are handled by Apple under Apple's policies. Contact Apple Support for billing or refund requests related to App Store purchases.
- Restore purchases using the in-app Restore control while signed in with the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
2.4 Desktop and Website Purchases
Purchases of the desktop plugin, website sample packs, or other products through pi-99.com (where available) are separate from iOS In-App Purchases. Those transactions are governed by the payment provider and checkout flow shown on the website. The iOS App does not link to external checkout for digital content used within the iOS App.
3. Collab (iOS App)
Collab is a feature of the iOS App that lets users share saved beat state data with other users who can install, remix, and build on those beats using Pack Pass catalog assets. Collab v1 does not upload full audio files; it shares beat configuration and references to eligible packs.
3.1 Pack Pass Required
An active Pack Pass subscription is required to post beats to Collab, install Collab beats from other users, and participate in Collab as described in the app. Own Forever unlocks permanent access to core iOS App features but does not replace Pack Pass for Collab post/install or catalog pack access unless otherwise stated in the app.
3.2 License You Grant When You Share to Collab
When you post a beat, version, comment, or other update to Collab, you represent that you have the rights to share that content and you grant Pi-99 LLC and other Pack Pass users a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to access, use, reproduce, display, install, remix, and create derivative beat states from your shared Collab content solely within the BeatDiscovery iOS App and Collab service, subject to these Terms and in-app permissions (such as whether remixing is allowed).
This license includes the patterns, groove data, settings, and other beat state information you share, so other users may flip and build on your shared updates inside Collab. You retain ownership of your original creative work, but you should not share to Collab if you do not want others to use or build on what you post.
3.3 What May Not Be Shared
You may not share imported audio, private samples, mic recordings, or other non–Pack Pass content through public Collab v1. The app may block or strip incompatible content before posting. You are responsible for ensuring your Collab posts comply with these Terms and do not infringe third-party rights.
3.4 Moderation and Removal
Post owners may delete comments on their posts. Users may delete their own comments. We may remove posts, versions, or comments that violate these Terms or applicable law. Deleting a Collab post removes it from the public feed but does not delete beats other users have already installed to their local library.
