Developer Listing Agreement

Version 1.5 — Effective September 21, 2026

These terms apply to developers who list software for purchase or buy-out on the BuildMyApp marketplace.

1. Ownership Representation

By listing software on BuildMyApp, you certify that you are the original author of the listed software, or that you have the full legal right to sell or license it.

For software that did not come from a BuildMyApp build, you also certify, when you list it, that you hold the exclusive commercialization rights in it: no one else may sell, license or distribute it in a way that conflicts with the listing. Where BuildMyApp's records show that software came from a BuildMyApp build, those records, and not this certification, decide who may list it.

2. IP Non-Infringement

You represent that your listed software does not infringe any third-party intellectual property, patents, trademarks, or copyrights.

3. No Unauthorized Code

Your listed software must not contain code from employers, clients, or projects where you do not hold distribution rights.

4. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Maia AI, LLC (BuildMyApp) and any buyers or licensees from all claims, damages, and expenses arising from intellectual property infringement, ownership disputes, or misrepresentation of rights related to software you list or sell through the platform.

5. Buy-Out (Exclusive Sale) Obligations

When you sell software under an exclusive license, you must transfer all rights in the Foreground IP (as defined in the BuildMyApp Terms & Conditions, Section 11 “License Types and IP Rights”) to the buyer and remove all copies of the Foreground IP from your possession within 7 days of the sale. You retain Background IP, Residuals, and Anonymized Learnings as defined in that section, and the buyer receives a perpetual royalty-free license to use Background IP as embedded in the delivered product.

6. Buy (Non-Exclusive License) Obligations

When software is offered for purchase under the platform's standard "Buy" option, each buyer receives a non-exclusive license to USE the software for their own purposes, on the plan that buyer selected, and no right to resell, sublicense, transfer, publish or distribute it. That is true of every non-exclusive purchase, whatever the software's origin. A one-time plan grants a perpetual use license. A subscription plan, meaning a recurring monthly or yearly price set on a hosted listing, grants a use license for the subscription term the buyer has paid for, which renews with each renewal payment and ends when the subscription ends. You must maintain the software in a deliverable state for the duration of the listing.

Who sells further licenses depends on the software's origin. For Platform-commercialized software, as defined in Section 11 of the BuildMyApp Terms and Conditions, BuildMyApp sells further non-exclusive licenses under Section 12 and you do not sell them independently. For software whose commercialization rights you hold, you keep that right and sell further licenses yourself, on the Section 4 terms for lister-held software.

For Platform-commercialized software, as defined in Section 11 of the BuildMyApp Terms and Conditions, BuildMyApp holds the commercialization rights and what it receives for that software is shared: 50% to you (the developer), 25% to the original buyer, and 25% to BuildMyApp. You do not commercialize that software independently.

For software whose commercialization rights you hold, nothing changes: you keep them, and purchase fees are shared 85% to you and 15% to BuildMyApp.

Subscription listings. A subscription plan is a use-license subscription, not a maintenance or support contract, and the buyer's rights in the Foreground IP end when the subscription ends, as set out in Section 11 of the BuildMyApp Terms and Conditions. Subscription payments are shared on the same basis as purchase fees under this Section. If you withdraw a subscription plan, buyers who already subscribed keep their license and may keep renewing on the plan they bought until they choose to cancel; BuildMyApp will stop accepting new subscribers to a withdrawn plan. For Platform-commercialized software, withdrawing a plan does not withdraw the commercialization rights BuildMyApp already holds in software already delivered; for software whose commercialization rights you hold, BuildMyApp holds no such rights and withdrawing a plan simply stops new subscriptions. Neither applies where a listing is removed under Section 8, in which case BuildMyApp will tell affected subscribers what happens to their license.

App Store and Play Store distribution. Software whose primary distribution channel is the Apple App Store or Google Play Store is listed on BuildMyApp for delivery as source code. You may offer it under a buy-out (exclusive sale) under Section 5, under a non-exclusive "Buy" under this Section, or both. Under a buy-out, the buyer publishes and maintains the app under their own developer account and BuildMyApp is not a party to the buyer's relationship with the store.

Under a non-exclusive "Buy", publication is commercialization, and who holds it depends on the software's origin. For Platform-commercialized software it belongs to BuildMyApp alone: neither the buyer nor you publishes the app, and BuildMyApp may publish it under its own developer account. For software whose commercialization rights you hold, you keep the right to publish and maintain the app under your own developer account, on the Section 4 terms for lister-held software. Under either origin the buyer does not publish it, because a non-exclusive license is a right to use rather than to distribute.

Subscription plans are not offered for app-store software.

The Foreground IP / Background IP / Residuals / Platform Contributions / Anonymized Learnings framework defined in Section 11 of the BuildMyApp Terms and Conditions applies to all software sold or licensed under this Agreement, including buy-out, one-time non-exclusive, and subscription transactions.

7. Platform License Grant

By listing software on BuildMyApp, you grant Maia AI, LLC a non-exclusive, revocable right to display, market, and promote your listing on the platform. This grant is revocable by either party: by you (when you delist the software), or by BuildMyApp (under Section 8 below).

Separately from the revocable display grant above, for Platform-commercialized software, as that term is defined in Section 11 of the BuildMyApp Terms and Conditions, you grant Maia AI, LLC the commercialization rights described there under "BuildMyApp's commercialization rights". That grant is EXCLUSIVE and irrevocable as to software already sold or licensed, and it survives delisting under this Section and removal under Section 8.

This paragraph does not apply to software whose commercialization rights you hold, which stays yours to commercialize on the Section 4 terms for lister-held software, and it does not apply to software sold under a buy-out (exclusive sale) under Section 5.

8. Platform Discretion

BuildMyApp reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to suspend or remove any listing at any time, with or without prior notice, for violations of these Terms, intellectual property disputes, fraud signals, or other concerns related to the integrity of the platform or its community standards. Suspension is reversible upon resolution of the underlying concern; removal is terminal.

BuildMyApp also reserves the right to hide or redact messages posted in any collaboration session associated with a listing or transaction for the same reasons. Hidden messages remain in place visually with a moderated notice; their original content is suppressed for non-moderator viewers.

This discretion is in addition to, and does not waive, the indemnification obligations in Section 4.

This agreement covers listing software for sale on the marketplace. Your use of the platform generally is covered by the BuildMyApp Terms & Conditions.
