Nani Accounting
Terms of use and license
Updated October 17, 2026.
These terms are an agreement between you and Adam R. Cagle (“we”), the maker of Nani Accounting (“Nani”). By downloading, installing or using Nani, you agree to them. If you use Nani for a business, you agree for that business. Our privacy policy explains how information is handled.
1. The free beta
While Nani is in beta, you may use it free, with no license. Beta software can have bugs and can change. Keep backups, and check your books and your CPA package before you rely on them.
2. The free trial
After the beta, each copy of Nani is free for 30 days from the first day it runs. When the trial ends without a license, your books stay on your computer and you can still open them, view them and back them up. Adding or changing work, exports, printable reports, the CPA package and the AI connection are available again when you enter a license key. Trying to restart the trial, for example by reinstalling or changing your computer's date, isn't allowed.
3. Your license
A license is a one-time purchase. It lets one person or one business use Nani on the computers they own or control, for as long as they like. It includes the versions of Nani released in the 12 months after purchase; your version keeps working after that. Your license key carries your name and email. Please don't share it, sell it or post it; a key that's been shared may stop working in future versions. We license Nani to you; we don't sell it, and we keep all rights not granted here.
4. What you may not do
Don't copy Nani for others, resell or rent it, remove or bypass its licensing, or reverse engineer it except where the law allows that despite this term. Don't use Nani for anything illegal, including fraud or keeping false books.
5. Your books are yours
Everything you put in Nani belongs to you, and it stays on your computer. We claim no rights to it and never receive it. During the trial and with a license, you can export all of it at any time. You're responsible for your passphrase and your backups: we can't open, recover or restore your company file.
6. Nani is a tool, not advice
Nani helps you keep your books and organize what your CPA needs. It isn't tax, legal, accounting or financial advice, and it doesn't prepare or file tax returns. Category suggestions, tax-line mappings, checklists and anything an AI says are suggestions for you and your CPA to review. You're responsible for your books, your filings and your decisions.
7. AI and other services
If you connect an AI or another service, your use of it is between you and that provider, under their terms. We aren't responsible for what an AI says or for a provider's handling of what you share with it.
8. Payment, and why sales are final
Payment is processed by Stripe. Prices are in US dollars and may change for future purchases. Because Nani is free to try for 30 days before you buy, all sales are final. If you bought by mistake more than once, email adamrcagle@gmail.com and we'll refund the extra purchase. Nothing in these terms takes away a refund right the law where you live gives you. A refunded license key stops being valid.
9. Updates
Nani checks for new versions and installs them only when you click Install. Updates may add, change or remove features.
10. No warranty
NANI IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DON'T PROMISE NANI WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR THAT ITS RESULTS WILL BE CORRECT FOR YOUR SITUATION. Some places don't allow these exclusions, so some may not apply to you.
11. Limit of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, WE AREN'T LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, TAXES, PENALTIES OR INTEREST, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF NANI, EVEN IF WE WERE TOLD THEY WERE POSSIBLE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ABOUT NANI IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR YOUR LICENSE, OR US$50 IF YOU PAID NOTHING.
12. Ending these terms
You can stop using Nani at any time. If you break these terms, your license ends and you must stop using Nani, though your books remain yours. Sections 5, 6, 10, 11 and 13 continue after the terms end.
13. Law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Oregon, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring a claim in your local courts. Please email us first; most problems can be fixed quickly.
14. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The date above shows the latest version. Changes apply to versions of Nani released after the change; the terms you agreed to when you bought your license continue to cover it.
