Terms of Service
Use this service for what it's built for. Honest input. Real business problems.
The Trailfinder is a conversation, not a consultation. The Tech Forester is an implementation assistant, not a guarantee of outcomes. Nothing here constitutes professional advice of any kind.
We reserve the right to end access if these terms are abused.
Who We Are

Questions? Contact us.
Who Can Use This Service
You must be at least 18 years old to use this site or any of our services. By using this service, you represent that you are an adult using it in connection with a legitimate business or professional interest.
Our services are designed for businesses and individuals actively working to implement AI tools into their operations. They are not intended for personal use, academic research, or any purpose unrelated to genuine business evaluation or implementation.
What Discovery (the Trailfinder) Is — and Is Not
The Trailfinder facilitates a structured Discovery conversation to help the Edgewood team understand your business situation. Based on that conversation, we generate an internal report used solely by our team to determine whether a follow-up engagement makes sense for you and to prepare for a call if one is warranted.
The Trailfinder is not a business advisor, consultant, attorney, financial advisor, or professional service of any kind. Nothing said during a Discovery conversation constitutes professional advice. Any decisions you make based on your experience with the Trailfinder are made at your own discretion and risk.
Participation in a Discovery conversation does not guarantee a follow-up call, a recommendation, a business outcome, or any result whatsoever.
What Development (the Tech Forester) Is — and Is Not
The Tech Forester is an AI-powered implementation assistant. It helps you identify, set up, and integrate AI tools into your business operations based on your specific situation and goals.
What the Tech Forester delivers is implementation assistance — guidance, context, and support through the process of adopting new tools. The Tech Forester is not responsible for the performance, reliability, or outcomes of any third-party tools it helps you implement. If a tool you implement does not produce the results you hoped for, that is a function of that tool and your business context — not a failure of the Tech Forester's service.
The Tech Forester works best when you engage honestly and give it the context it needs to give you accurate guidance. The quality of recommendations is directly tied to the quality of information you provide.
The Tech Forester is not a business advisor, consultant, attorney, financial advisor, or professional service of any kind. Nothing in a Development session constitutes professional advice.
