Nami terms of use

The terms for the Nami app. Plain English, and short on purpose. Sections 6 and 7 are the privacy part: they are here rather than on a separate page because there is very little to say.

Last updated 12 August 2026

01Who this is

Nami is made by Dainami Pte Ltd (UEN 202316999Z), a company incorporated in Singapore. In this document that is “we” and “us”, and the person using the app is “you”. Installing or using Nami means you accept these terms. If you do not, please do not install it.

02What Nami is

Nami is a free Mac application. It opens one folder on your computer and gives you a place to run the AI coding agents you already have installed, such as Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Antigravity, Hermes and Kimi Code, alongside a plain terminal.

Nami is not an AI model and it is not an AI service. It starts the same command line tools you could start yourself, shows you what they are doing, and gets out of the way. Everything runs on your Mac.

03The licence, and these terms

Nami’s source code is published under the MIT licence at github.com/mrdainami/nami. You may read it, change it, and build your own version, on the terms of that licence.

Two things sit outside it. First, the names Nami and Dainami, the logo and the mascot are ours and are not licensed with the code, so a fork needs its own name. Second, this document governs your use of the app we build and distribute. Where the two ever disagree about the code itself, the MIT licence wins.

04Your agent accounts are with someone else

The agents Nami runs are other companies’ products. Your subscription, your usage limits and your bill sit between you and them, whether that is Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Moonshot or anyone else. Their terms apply to what you do with their tools, and their prices can change without us knowing.

We do not resell them, we do not mark them up, and we do not sit in the middle of the connection. Nami never sees your subscription.

05What Nami can do to your files

When you open a folder, an agent working in that folder can create, change and delete files inside it. That is the point of the tool, and it is also the risk. Nami keeps the work inside the folder you opened and refuses to move files outside it, but inside that folder an agent does what you ask it to do.

Two habits worth having. Open a real working folder rather than your whole home directory, so that anything unexpected has somewhere small to happen. And keep the folder in version control or a backup, the way you would with any other work.

You are responsible for what you ask an agent to do and for checking what it produced. We are not able to review it for you.

06What leaves your Mac

Nami has no account, no sign-in and no server of ours behind it. There is no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting and no usage tracking. We do not know that you installed it.

One connection is made by the app itself:

Update checks. Nami asks GitHub whether a newer release exists. GitHub sees that request the way it sees any download, which means an IP address and the version being asked for. Nothing about your work is attached to it.

Every other connection is made by an agent you started, to the service that agent belongs to, exactly as it would if you had run it in a terminal yourself. What each one sends is described in that tool’s own privacy policy.

Dictation is off by default, and the speech-to-text setting ships as local: the model runs on your Mac and the audio does not leave it. If you switch that setting to a hosted provider, your audio goes to that provider on their terms. That is your choice to make and it is a single setting.

07Your keys and your connections

Any API key you enter is stored in Nami’s own settings file inside your Mac user library, with file permissions that keep it to your account. Keys are never sent to us, because there is nowhere for them to be sent.

The same is true of connections. When you add an MCP connection, Nami writes it into the config files the agents on your Mac already read. It stays on the disk you put it on.

08Updates

Nami checks for a newer version and can install it for you, so that a fix reaches you without a trip to a download page. You can turn that off in settings and update by hand instead. We will not use the updater to install anything other than Nami.

09No warranty

Nami is provided free of charge and as is, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. This is the same position as the MIT licence the code is published under.

We do not promise the app is free of defects, that it will suit your work, or that any agent it starts will do what you hoped.

10Our liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for lost or damaged files, lost profits, lost data, business interruption, or any indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of Nami, including anything an agent does inside your folder.

Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Where a limit is permitted but a total exclusion is not, our total liability is capped at one hundred Singapore dollars, which reflects that Nami is supplied free of charge.

11Services you connect

Nami can help you connect other services, such as a Notion workspace, a Slack workspace or a model provider. Those relationships are yours. We do not control those services, we are not responsible for what they do with what you send them, and their terms and privacy policies apply to that part of your setup.

12Changes, law and contact

We may update these terms as the app changes. When we do, the date at the top changes with them, and the previous wording stays visible in the site’s history. Continuing to use Nami after an update means you accept the revised terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of Singapore, and the courts of Singapore have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.
