Terms of Service

Effective October 17, 2026

These terms cover your use of the Pricing Calculator at pricingcalculator.christinevesterby.com (the "calculator"). The calculator is made and run by Folio LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company ("Folio", "we", "us"). By using the calculator, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use it.

What the calculator is

The calculator helps bookkeepers and accountants estimate what to charge a client. It runs in your web browser. You enter information about a client, and it gives you an estimated fee, a scope of work and reports you can print or download.

Everything it produces is an estimate. You decide what to charge, what to put in a proposal and what to agree to with a client. Read the disclaimer for more on this.

Who can use it

You must be at least 18 and using the calculator for your own business or the business you work for. Access may be limited to members of a program or group, and may require an access code. Access codes are for you and your firm. Please don't post them publicly or share them outside your firm.

Your information and your clients' information

What you enter stays in your browser on your device. We don't have an account for you and we don't receive or store what you type. The privacy policy explains this in detail.

Because your work lives only in your browser, you are responsible for keeping your own copies. Clearing your browser data, using a private window, switching devices or switching browsers can remove your work. Use Download file and the backup option on My firm to keep copies. We can't recover anything you lose.

You are responsible for the client information you choose to enter and for following any rules that apply to it, including your engagement letters, confidentiality agreements and privacy laws. The calculator is not built for protected health information. Don't enter patient names, patient records or other protected health information, even for medical or dental clients.

Optional AI features

If you add your own Claude API key, the Recommend tab sends the documents you choose (like a call transcript or a diagnostic review) straight from your browser to Anthropic to be read. That happens under your own Anthropic account and Anthropic's terms, and any charges are billed to you by Anthropic. Only send documents you have the right to share. Your key is saved in your browser, not with us.

What you own and what we own

You own the information you enter and the reports and proposals you create with the calculator. Use them however you like in your business.

Folio owns the calculator itself: the software, design, wording, task library, default hours and rates, guides, videos and the Pricing Calculator name. We give you a personal, non-transferable right to use the calculator for your own pricing work while you have access.

Please don't:

• copy, resell, rent or redistribute the calculator or its task library
• rebuild it or put it on your own website as your own product
• remove the Folio name or notices from the calculator
• try to break it, get around an access code or overload the site
• use it for anything illegal

Changes and availability

We update the calculator often. We may add, change or remove features, change default rates or hours, or stop offering it, at any time. We'll try to give notice of big changes, but we don't promise the calculator will always be available or work without errors.

No warranties

The calculator is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent the law allows, Folio makes no warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement. We don't promise that any estimate is right for your firm, your market or your client.

Limit of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Folio and its owner won't be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data or underpriced or overpriced engagements, that come from using or not being able to use the calculator. If Folio is found liable for anything related to the calculator, the most Folio will owe is the amount you paid Folio for access to the calculator in the 12 months before the claim, or $100 if you paid nothing.

Your responsibility

You agree to cover Folio for claims, losses and costs (including reasonable legal fees) that come from how you used the calculator, the information you entered, the prices you set or proposals you sent, or your breaking these terms.

Ending access

You can stop using the calculator at any time. We can suspend or end your access if you break these terms or if your membership or access ends. The sections on ownership, warranties, liability and your responsibility still apply after that.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Any dispute will be handled in the state or federal courts located in Wake County, North Carolina, and you agree to those courts' jurisdiction.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. When we do, we'll change the date at the top of this page. If you keep using the calculator after a change, you agree to the updated terms.

Everything else

If any part of these terms can't be enforced, the rest still applies. If we don't enforce part of these terms right away, we can still enforce it later. These terms, the privacy policy and the disclaimer are the whole agreement between you and Folio about the calculator.
