Kimi products and services are provided by Beijing Moonshot Technology Co., Ltd. and its affiliates ("Moonshot AI," "we," "us," or "our") through websites, applications, browser extensions, mini-programs, and other innovative forms of delivery, including but not limited to the platform with generative artificial intelligence services as its core function ("Kimi" or "the Service").

This Agreement sets forth the terms under which we provide the Service to you. In addition to this Agreement, specific modules may be subject to separate agreements or product rules ("Specific Agreements"), including the Kimi Privacy Policy and the Kimi Paid Services Agreement. Specific Agreements supplement this Agreement and form an integral and indivisible part thereof with equal legal effect. Where a Specific Agreement conflicts with this Agreement, the Specific Agreement shall prevail. For example, the platform provides users with services including but not limited to free basic services and paid value-added services; when using paid value-added services, you shall, in addition to this Agreement, also comply with the Kimi Paid Services Agreement and relevant announcements.

We provide AI services powered by large language models. The model generates content in response ("Output" or "Generated Content") based on user input ("Input"). Input and Output are collectively referred to as "Content."

The Service is primarily intended for adults with full civil capacity. Due to the characteristics of the Service, users are required to effectively identify and reasonably apply Content. IF YOU ARE A MINOR OR LACK THE CIVIL CAPACITY TO USE THE SERVICE, YOU MAY USE THE SERVICE ONLY WITH THE CONSENT AND SUPERVISION OF YOUR LEGAL GUARDIAN.

The Service is for personal learning, research, appreciation, daily life, and entertainment.

AI and machine learning are rapidly evolving research fields. We have been striving to improve the Service to make it more accurate, reliable, secure, and beneficial. However, given the uncertainty and probabilistic nature of machine learning, We strive to improve the Service, but given the probabilistic nature of machine learning, the Service may produce inaccurate results. We cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of the Output. In addition, due to technical limitations, the Output may not exhaustively display the content you want.

When using the Service: (a) Do not treat the Output as the sole source of facts or as absolutely true information. You need to independently evaluate the accuracy and applicability of Content, and reasonably apply or share it according to your purpose and scenario, so as to avoid adverse effects caused by erroneous or inappropriate content; (b) The Output is not a substitute for professional advice in medicine, law, finance, education, or other regulated fields. (c) Do not directly use Generated Content to make decisions that may have legal or other material impact on individuals, such as decisions concerning an individual’s credit, education, employment, housing, insurance, legal matters, medical treatment, or other major decisions; (d) The Output does not represent Moonshot AI's views. Any mention of any third-party product or service in the Output does not imply that such third party endorses the content or is affiliated with Moonshot AI. If you use the web search function, we retrieve publicly available third-party information to assist with your Input. The search sources will be displayed in the search bar on the right side of the page. All search sources are produced and provided by third parties; the Output of the Service may be the model’s integration of information from such search sources, which is for your reference only and does not mean that the Service approves of or agrees with any position or view of the linked webpage content, or endorses the truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of such content.

You must provide true, accurate, and valid information, keep such information updated in a timely manner, and confirm your agreement to this Agreement and other related rules and policies.
