Terms of Use
Last updated: 15 October 2026
The agreement
By subscribing to, installing or using QuickBADS, your firm agrees to these terms. "We" and "us" means the team behind QuickBADS, based in Victoria, Australia. "You" means the firm or person who subscribes, and everyone using its seats.
QuickBADS is for professionals designing buildings. The person who accepts these terms must be able to agree to them for the firm.
Your licence
While your subscription is paid, you may install and use QuickBADS on as many computers as you have seats. A computer counts as one seat if QuickBADS was used on it in the last 30 days. To move a seat to a new computer, email us and we'll move it for you.
You may not:
- share your licence key outside your firm, or use QuickBADS on more computers than you have seats
- copy, sell, rent or give away QuickBADS, or remove its licence check
- decompile or reverse-engineer it, except where the law allows
- use it to build a competing product
QuickBADS, its documentation and its name stay ours. You get the right to use them, not ownership.
Payment, renewal and cancelling
- Price: A$100 per seat per month, charged monthly in advance through Stripe.
- Renewal: your subscription renews each month until you cancel. After each payment you get a new licence key by email. Each key works until 14 days after the end of the period you paid for.
- Cancelling: cancel at any time by emailing support@quickbads.com. You can keep using QuickBADS until your current key ends. We don't refund part months.
- Price changes: we'll email you at least 30 days before a price change applies to you.
- Failed payments: if a payment fails, no new key is sent and QuickBADS stops when the current key ends.
There are no free trials for now. We offer free onboarding: we help your firm set up and work through issues with you.
Licence checks and usage data
QuickBADS checks its licence with quickbads.com once a day. It also sends usage data unless you turn it off in QuickBADS → Settings. Our Privacy Policy says exactly what is sent. Nothing from your Revit model is ever sent.
We may stop (revoke) a licence key if:
- it is used on more computers than its seats, after we warn you and give you 7 days to fix it
- it was shared outside your firm
- the payment for it was refunded or reversed
A revoked key stops working the next time QuickBADS checks it. If we revoke a key by mistake, we'll replace it straight away.
Your model and your professional judgement
Your Revit files, designs and drawings are yours. We claim no rights in them. The fills, schedules and reports QuickBADS adds to your model are yours to use as you like.
QuickBADS is a design aid. It checks a model against our reading of the Better Apartment Design Standards in the Victoria Planning Provisions, and it can be wrong, for example when a model is drawn in a way it doesn't expect. It does not replace your own assessment, a planning permit assessment or professional advice. You are responsible for the designs you submit and for checking that they comply with the planning scheme that applies.
Warranty and liability
We will fix bugs you report as soon as we reasonably can, and keep QuickBADS working with the Revit versions listed on our website.
Nothing in these terms removes rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law that can't be excluded. Apart from those rights:
- QuickBADS is provided as it is, without other promises that it is error-free or suits a particular project
- we aren't liable for indirect loss, such as lost profits, project delays, redesign costs or permit refusals
- our total liability to you is limited to the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or, where the law allows, to supplying the service again or refunding it
You are responsible for backing up your Revit files. QuickBADS edits your model only when you click a button or turn on Auto Update, and Revit's Undo works for those changes.
Ending, changes and contact
- Ending: you can stop at any time by cancelling. Apart from revoking a key for the reasons above, we can end your access if you seriously breach these terms and don't fix the breach within 14 days of our email. Fills already in your models stay there, and Clear Fills always works so you can remove them.
- Changes: we'll email subscribers at least 30 days before a change that affects them. If you don't agree, you can cancel before it applies.
- Law: these terms are governed by the law of Victoria, Australia, and disputes go to the courts of Victoria.
