Terms of Service

Last updated: 15 June 2026

1. About the Service

Funding Fox is a comprehensive funding intelligence platform built by AG2 Design. The Service combines multi-LLM technology with official Department for Education (DfE) funding documentation to provide guidance and support for further education and skills funding queries.

Important: Funding Fox is an information and guidance platform only. It is NOT official guidance from the Department for Education. While we strive to provide accurate information based on official documents, users must verify all critical information with official DfE sources.

2. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using Funding Fox ("the Service"), you accept and agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use this Service.

3. Free Account and Credits

Funding Fox offers a free account which includes 10 credits upon registration — no credit card required. Each credit allows one action (e.g. starting a chat conversation, running a qualification search, unlocking a tool or training video, or creating a checklist). Follow-up questions within the same chat conversation are free.

Once your free credits are used, you may purchase additional credit packs at any time. Credits never expire and there are no recurring charges or subscriptions. Payments are processed securely through Stripe. By purchasing credits, you agree to Stripe's terms and conditions. All credit purchases are non-refundable unless otherwise required by law.

4. Use Licence
