Terms

Short, in plain language. These terms cover buying and using the Deckmate application for macOS.

Who sells Deckmate

Deckmate is made by RAIVEN, registered in the Netherlands (KvK 93493401, VAT ID NL005022995B65; see About). Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle is the merchant of record for all our orders: it is the seller on your invoice, takes the payment and handles applicable taxes and refunds. Paddle's Buyer Terms apply to your purchase.

What you buy

Deckmate Pro, a one-time purchase, no subscription:

Single license: €39.95, or $39.95 in the United States.
Team license: €159.95, or $159.95 in the United States, for five people.

In Europe the price includes VAT; in the United States, sales tax is added at checkout. Paddle shows the final price before you pay. Deckmate Pro removes the Deckmate mark from presented decks and exports, keeps as many quick callouts as you like (the free version keeps two), and copies slides from one deck into another, with Copy and Paste or by dragging between deck windows. The license key arrives by email after purchase and is verified inside the app, on your Mac.

The license is personal

One person, on any Macs they use themselves. There is no machine count and no activation. For teams: one license per person; a team license gives you five keys, one for each person. Please do not share your key; it carries your purchase email inside it.

The free version

Deckmate is free to use without a license. Presented decks and exports carry a small Deckmate mark. Your decks are plain files in folders you own; they open with or without the app and remain yours in every case.

Using Deckmate with AI apps

What Deckmate is for. Deckmate is made to be used with your AI apps. When you send feedback, connect an AI app to Deckmate, or open a deck's files in an AI app, that app may read and change any part of the deck: slides, speaker notes, images, and the feedback and drawings you made in Deckmate.

Where your content goes. Deckmate runs on your Mac and does not send your decks to us. Most AI apps run on their provider's servers. What you share with an AI app goes to its provider, under your account and that provider's terms. With an AI model that runs on your Mac, it can stay on your Mac.

Your content, your choice. You are responsible for what you put in your decks and for what you share with AI apps, including personal data about other people and confidential material. Share only what you have the right to share. RAIVEN is not responsible for what an AI app or its provider does with your content, or for the changes an AI app makes to your decks.

Versions and backups. Deckmate makes a best effort to keep earlier versions of your decks. We strongly recommend installing Git, turning on versions for each deck, and keeping your own backups, for example with Time Machine. Deckmate does not guarantee that an earlier version can be restored.

Liability. To the extent the law allows, RAIVEN is not liable for lost or damaged decks, for the disclosure of content you shared with an AI app, or for indirect loss. "The usual limits" below apply. Nothing here limits rights that consumer law gives you and that cannot be waived.

Age. You must be 18 or older to use Deckmate. The AI apps you use with it have their own age rules.

Changes. When this section changes, Deckmate asks you to agree again.

Updates and renewal

A Deckmate Pro license includes 2 years of updates: every Deckmate version released within 2 years of your purchase works as Pro. You keep using those versions after the 2 years. A version released later works as the free version until you renew.

To renew, you pay 25% less than the retail price at that time, for another 2 years of updates.*

* We offer renewal while we sell Deckmate Pro. RAIVEN may end the product line at its discretion; the versions your license already covers keep working as Pro.

Refunds

Fourteen days, no questions. See the refund policy.

The usual limits

Deckmate is provided as is, without warranties, to the extent the law allows. Our liability is limited to the amount you paid. Nothing here limits rights that consumer law gives you and that cannot be waived.
