Overview
RivaiLabs provides custom software development, AI/ML solutions, and technology consulting. Since all work is custom-built, this policy outlines how we handle payments, cancellations, and refunds.
1. Payment Structure
Advance: 30–40% of total project cost, collected before work begins.
Milestones: Subsequent payments tied to delivery and acceptance of specific milestones.
Final: Remaining balance due on final delivery and acceptance.
All payments via UPI, cards, net banking, NEFT. A 2% transaction fee may apply.
2. Cancellation Policy
Before work begins: Full refund processed within 7–10 business days.
After work begins: You are billed for all completed work. If advance exceeds completed work value, the difference is refunded within 14 business days. Completed deliverables are handed over.
Cancellation requests must be sent in writing to [email protected].
3. Refund Policy
Milestone-based: Refunds apply only for undelivered milestones. Once delivered and accepted, that milestone payment is non-refundable.
Quality disputes: Raise concerns within 7 days of delivery. We provide up to 2 revision rounds per milestone at no cost. If unresolvable, partial/full milestone refund is processed.
Non-refundable: Discovery/consultation fees, third-party licenses/API costs, domain/hosting charges.
