TERMSTERMS OF SERVICE · RUNENVELOPE

What you agreed to at checkout.

Sections 4 through 9 are the account terms you accept when you subscribe to RunEnvelope Pro or add a seat, expanded into what each one means in practice. Sections 1 through 3 apply to every report RunEnvelope produces, à la carte purchases and public samples included.

Last updated October 21, 2026

1. What a report is, and what it is not

A RunEnvelope zoning feasibility report is an informational study generated by software from public records (NYC PLUTO, Geoclient, DOB and DCP datasets) and the text of the New York City Zoning Resolution. It is produced for due-diligence and underwriting purposes so that you can decide whether a site deserves the attention of licensed professionals. It is not architectural, engineering, surveying, legal, tax, appraisal or investment services, and it is not professional advice.

Envelope Technologies LLC, which operates RunEnvelope, and its personnel are not licensed architects, professional engineers, land surveyors, attorneys, appraisers or brokers, and no professional-client relationship of any kind is created by generating, buying, reading or sharing a report. The New York City Department of Buildings and Department of City Planning make the determinations that govern what may be built on a lot; where a report and an agency differ, the agency controls.

Every figure in a report is the engine's reading of the sources above at the time it ran. Public records are sometimes wrong or stale, lot dimensions come from tax records rather than a survey, zoning text changes, and a lot's actual constraints (easements, landmark status, environmental conditions, prior filings, title) may not appear in any dataset we use. Before you buy a lot, sign a lease, commit capital or file plans, have a registered architect and a zoning attorney verify the report against the site.

2. No warranty

Reports, sample reports and everything else on RunEnvelope are provided as is and as available. We work hard to make every number right, and we stand behind our method, but we do not warrant that any report is accurate, complete, current, fit for a particular purpose or free of error, and we disclaim every warranty, express or implied, to the fullest extent the law allows. Any figure may be superseded by an agency determination, a survey, a title search or a later change in law.

3. Limitation of liability

You agree that you will verify a report with licensed professionals before relying on it, and that your use of a report is at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Envelope Technologies LLC and its members, officers, employees and contractors are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any lost profits, lost deals, lost value or costs of substitute services, arising out of or related to a report or the service, however caused and under any theory of liability, even if we were told such damages were possible.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim arising out of or related to a report or the service is limited to the amount you paid RunEnvelope for that report, or for the subscription in the twelve months before the claim, whichever applies. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those, the limitation applies to the extent the law permits.

Sections 1 to 3 apply to every report and every purchase: à la carte, Pro (including any added seats), complimentary trials, access grants and the public sample reports.

4. Seats are individual and non-transferable

Each RunEnvelope Pro seat is licensed to one named human being. Sharing credentials, alternating sign-ins between people, or rotating a single seat across a team is a breach of these terms.

You may move a seat from one teammate to another by revoking the leaving teammate from your admin dashboard and inviting the replacement. The platform enforces a 1 hour cooldown after a device is revoked to prevent rapid swap abuse.

Each seat is limited to two registered devices at a time. Sign-ins from a third device are blocked until you revoke an existing one from your settings. Concurrent sessions are not permitted: a fresh sign-in elsewhere will end your existing session within seconds.

When a seat signs in from a device we do not recognise, we email a one-time code to the address on that seat and you cannot use RunEnvelope until the code is entered. The seat holder is responsible for keeping that mailbox current and under their own control; a seat whose email address is a shared or role inbox defeats the check, which is why we do not accept one as a login.

A seat may register at most four devices in any rolling twelve-month period, counting devices it has since revoked. The two-device cap governs how many devices a seat may use at once; this limit governs how often a seat may move between them. Reaching it does not suspend the seat, but no further device can be registered on it until the oldest of those registrations is more than twelve months old, and a seat that keeps reaching it is reviewed under section 7.

5. Reports are for the licensee's own use

Every zoning feasibility report you generate from your RunEnvelope account is licensed for use within your own business: properties you broker, own, or are actively underwriting; deals your firm is screening; portfolios your firm manages.

You may not generate reports on behalf of third parties: clients of your firm, colleagues at unrelated firms, friends, family members in the trade, or any party who is not a teammate on your Pro account. If someone outside your business needs a single report, they can buy it directly through our à la carte option, no subscription required.

Reports may be shared as PDFs with the principals of the deal they describe (the seller you are pitching, the lender you are bringing the deal to, your in-house legal team). They may not be republished, repackaged, or sold downstream as a standalone product.

6. No bulk access, automated access or redistribution

RunEnvelope is licensed for human, site-by-site use. You may not scrape, crawl, spider or harvest the service, extract its content in bulk, or access it by automated or programmatic means: scripts, bots, headless browsers, browser automation, scheduled jobs, or any interface other than the RunEnvelope web application as it is served to you. We do not publish a public API, and nothing in these terms grants a right to build one against our endpoints.

You may not redistribute reports. Beyond the narrow sharing allowed by section 5 — the PDF, to the principals of the deal it describes — you may not republish, syndicate, post publicly, sell, sublicense, or include reports or their contents in any dataset, feed, product or service you provide to someone else, and you may not use reports or other RunEnvelope output to train or evaluate a machine-learning model.

If you need programmatic or bulk access for a legitimate purpose, write to [email protected] first. Unapproved automated access is grounds for immediate suspension without the warning ladder in section 7, because at volume it is indistinguishable from an attack on the service.

7. Account activity is monitored

To enforce the seat-licensing terms above and protect the platform from abuse, RunEnvelope logs the following per seat: sign-in timestamps, IP addresses, registered devices and their fingerprints, device-verification events, report generation activity (which BBL, when, by which seat), advanced-section unlocks, and aggregate usage patterns.

This data is used internally to identify accounts likely violating the seat-licensing terms: for example, a single seat generating reports for many unrelated properties from many different networks in a short window, or a sustained pattern of concurrent-session evictions. Suspected violations are reviewed manually before any action is taken.

We may also flag sign-ins that are unlikely to belong to one person — two active sessions from networks far apart, within minutes of each other — and for that purpose we may begin deriving an approximate location from the IP address of a sign-in. We do not do that today: we hold the IP address itself and nothing derived from it. If we start, we will say so here and in our privacy policy before relying on it.

If we determine after review that a seat is in breach, possible responses include a written warning, suspension of the offending seat, or termination of the entire Pro account. We do not retroactively bill for past violations: the consequence is loss of access, not a back-billed invoice.

This data is never sold to third parties and is not shared except where required by law.

8. The plan owner pays for the whole account

If you own a RunEnvelope Pro subscription, you are financially responsible for every report run on your account, by every seat on it. That includes reports run by teammates you invited, reports run by a seat you have stopped supervising, and discounted over-allowance reports run after the account has used the reports included in the plan.

Over-allowance reports are charged to the payment method on file for the account owner, at the discounted per-report rate disclosed to you when you subscribe and shown on your billing page. A seat does not need your approval report by report, and we do not ask you for it: the seat you granted is the approval. The person running the report is shown the exact price first and has to confirm it, so no charge is a surprise to them either. If you need a firmer ceiling than that, invite fewer seats, revoke a seat you are not supervising, or write to [email protected] before you add one.

Charges already incurred are not reversed by revoking a seat or cancelling the plan. If you believe a specific report was charged in error, write to [email protected]; section 3 governs the limit of our liability either way.

9. Authority to bind

By accepting these terms at checkout, you represent and warrant that (a) you are authorized to bind the entity for which you are purchasing the RunEnvelope Pro account, (b) the entity's use of RunEnvelope will comply with these terms, and (c) you have read and understood the licensing, use, automated-access, monitoring and billing-responsibility provisions in sections 4 through 8 above.

If you are purchasing on your own behalf as an individual, you represent that you are the sole user of the seat, that you accept these terms personally, and that you are the person responsible for the charges described in section 8.
