Terms of Service
Last updated 3 November 2026 · Komiti (ABN 45 984 876 899)
These terms have two parts. Part A covers the systems builds and the monthly service. Part B covers the Komiti software, the app and the free tools on this site. Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
Part A. Systems build and monthly service
A1. The free call, the systems map and the scope
The 30-minute call is free, with no obligation. If it looks worth doing, we quote you a systems map: we learn the programs you use and write down where information gets typed twice, where jobs or money fall through, and what you can't see. You get that map in writing, with a recommendation of which package and a fixed-price plan.
The systems map is A$490 + GST = A$539 total. It's invoiced from Xero before the map starts. If you go ahead with a build from that plan, the full A$539 is credited against the build fee. If you don't go ahead, you keep the written map. There's no obligation to go ahead with a build. If you do, the scope of the build is what we agree in writing after the map. Anything outside that scope isn't included unless we both agree to it in writing.
A2. What the build includes
There are four packages. The work in each is what's agreed in writing.
- Connect: one integration between two of your systems, for example jobs to invoices, or web enquiries into your job system.
- Run: an end-to-end workflow across your tools, for example enquiry to quote to job to invoice to payment.
- Build: a custom system or tool built for your business, connected to everything else.
- Start: for someone with an idea and no business yet. See A12.
In every package, you get a written handover and a guide to how it works. Custom tools Komiti builds for you are yours to keep and use in your business.
A3. Price and payment
The build is a fixed price, stated in writing before work starts. Prices are shown as the amount plus GST, then the total.
- Systems map: A$490 + GST = A$539 total, credited in full against the build fee if you go ahead with a build from that plan (see A1).
- Connect: A$1,200 + GST = A$1,320 total to build.
- Run: A$2,950 + GST = A$3,245 total to build. The founding price for the first 5 businesses is A$1,950 + GST = A$2,145 total to build, for the same package (Run). The founding price isn't conditional on a review or testimonial. If a founding client agrees to a case study, it will say they paid the founding price.
- Build: from A$5,950 + GST = A$6,545 total to build. The exact price is fixed in writing after the systems map.
- Start: A$2,450 + GST = A$2,695 total to build. There is no systems map for Start (see A12).
You pay 50% to book and 50% on handover. Both are invoiced from Xero. The systems map fee is invoiced separately before the map starts.
A4. Cancelling or stopping the build
If you cancel before work starts, your deposit is refunded in full. If either side stops after work has started, you pay for the work done to that point at a fair proportion of the fixed price and you get everything built so far; any unused deposit is refunded.
A5. Timing
Connect is usually built within 5 working days of getting the access it needs, and Run within 10 working days. The timing for Build is agreed in the written plan. If the agreed build isn't finished, we keep going at no extra charge. This is a commitment to finish the agreed build, not a guarantee of any particular result, time saving or outcome for your business.
A6. The monthly service
The monthly fee starts at handover and is month to month, with no lock-in and no exit fee. The monthly fee for each package is:
- Connect: A$190 + GST = A$209 total a month.
- Run: A$390 + GST = A$429 total a month.
- Build: from A$790 + GST = A$869 total a month.
- Start: A$190 + GST = A$209 total a month, and optional (see A12).
It covers checking it runs, fixing it when a vendor changes something, small improvements, and a short monthly report. Cancel by email and it ends at the end of that month. If you cancel, what's built stays in your accounts and keeps running, but nobody watches or fixes it.
A7. Tool and text-message costs
The software and text-message services the systems use are paid by you directly, on accounts in your name. They aren't part of our fees. Before work starts, we tell you in writing the expected monthly cost. Those providers' own terms apply, and their prices can change.
A8. Your accounts, access and customers
- You keep every account. Every account and subscription stays in your name. Third-party software stays under its own terms, and you pay for it directly.
- Access is limited and removed. Before work starts we tell you in writing which accounts we need access to and why. We ask for read-only access wherever that's enough. Any admin access we used is removed at handover.
- Nothing goes to your customers until you approve it. You approve how every message is worded before it is switched on. Follow-up messages say they're from your business and include an unsubscribe, as the Spam Act 2003 requires. You stay responsible for who your business sends messages to.
- Client information. Your clients' personal or health information is never pasted into public AI tools. We treat beauty and health clinics as health service providers under the Privacy Act. How we handle information is in the Privacy Policy.
A9. What the systems services don't include
- No tax, legal or financial advice. We don't advise on your tax, legal or financial position. Talk to your accountant, bookkeeper or lawyer.
- No posting pay runs or moving money. We don't post pay runs, pay anyone or move money on your behalf.
- No AI phone answering, not yet. Call-recording rules differ by state, so we aren't offering AI phone answering for now.
A10. AI makes mistakes
Where the systems we build use AI, AI output contains errors. Part of the handover is how your team checks what they produce. You're responsible for checking anything an AI tool drafts before it's sent, published or relied on.
A11. If something goes wrong
Tell us at [email protected]. Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, including the guarantee that services are provided with due care and skill.
A12. The Start package
Start is for someone with an idea and no business yet. The first step is the same free 30-minute call. There is no systems map for Start, because there are no systems to map yet, so the systems map fee in A1 doesn't apply to it.
- Fixed price and payment. The build is A$2,450 + GST = A$2,695 total, stated in writing before work starts. You pay 50% to book and 50% on handover. Both are invoiced from Xero, the same as the other builds, and A4 applies if you cancel or stop.
- What it includes. An honest look at the idea first (who would buy it, what to charge and what it would cost to run, and we'll say so if we don't think it stacks up), checking the name is available, a domain and business email, a website with an enquiry form, quoting, invoicing and taking payments, Xero set up ready for your bookkeeper or accountant, and a written handover.
- Registrations are yours. You lodge your own ABN and business name, using our checklist, or your accountant does. We don't apply for an ABN or GST registration for anyone, and we don't advise on business structure, tax or GST. That is a legal limit under the Tax Agent Services Act 2009. It goes to your accountant, BAS agent or lawyer.
- You pay fees and tools directly. You pay government fees and tool subscriptions directly, in your own name, and you own every account (see A7 and A8).
- No promise of results. We don't promise that the business will succeed, make money or reach any particular result.
- Monthly care is optional. It is A$190 + GST = A$209 total a month, starts at handover and is month to month. If you don't take it, what's built stays in your accounts.
Part B. The Komiti software, app and free tools
1. What Komiti does
The Komiti software, app and free tools help Australian businesses keep on top of payroll and compliance. They:
- work out what's owed when paydays have been missed (the payday catch-up), using the ATO's published rules. This is a calculation, not AI;
- watch a business's Xero payroll once you connect it (Payday Watch). They read pay calendars, employees and pay runs, email you on payday and when a payday has passed with no pay run posted, flag set-up gaps, and, if you switch it on, prepare a draft pay run in your Xero for you to check and post;
- compare pay rates in your Xero with the minimum rates the Fair Work Commission publishes for the award and pay table line you choose (the award rate check). You choose the award and the line. Komiti doesn't work out which award or classification covers anyone, checks base rates only, and the award itself is what counts if it differs from the Commission's database;
- check business names against the public ABN register, once or every month (the ABN and name check, and its monthly watch);
- fill Fair Work's official templates with details you give them to produce a hiring pack (offer letter, the statements you must give a new employee, and a checklist);
- generate setup checklists and answer general questions about published rules.
The AI-based tools are grounded in publicly available guidance from sources such as the ATO, ASIC, Fair Work and state regulators.
2. What Komiti is not
- Not a payroll service or clearing house. Komiti does not run your payroll, post or finalise pay runs, pay wages or super, or lodge anything with the ATO, including Single Touch Payroll. You do those things yourself in Xero and your bank. A draft pay run Komiti prepares does nothing until you check it and post it.
- Not a registered tax agent or BAS agent. Komiti does not prepare or lodge returns or activity statements on your behalf, does not advise on your specific tax liabilities or entitlements, and does not represent you to the ATO. Those are tax agent services under the Tax Agent Services Act 2009 and require registration with the Tax Practitioners Board.
- Not a law firm. Komiti does not give legal advice, recommend a business structure for your circumstances, draft bespoke contract terms, or review contracts. The hiring pack fills Fair Work's official templates with the details you enter. It doesn't advise on whether they suit your situation, and it doesn't state award pay rates; use Fair Work's Pay and Conditions Tool for those.
- Not a financial adviser. Komiti does not provide financial product advice.
Where something falls outside what Komiti can properly do, it will tell you so and suggest you speak to a registered tax agent, accountant, bookkeeper or solicitor. Please take that seriously: it isn't a disclaimer for its own sake.
3. Everything is a draft until you check it
AI output contains errors. Assume it will, at least small ones. Every document Komiti produces is marked as an AI-assisted draft requiring verification, and nothing is final until you have read it, corrected anything that's wrong, and approved it. That review step is a condition of using the service, not an optional extra. You are the person who decides whether a document is accurate and fit to be used or lodged.
4. Your compliance calendar is a prompt, not a determination
When you set up a business profile, Komiti works out a list of obligations that appear to apply to a business of that shape. This is the part people find most useful, so it is worth being precise about what it is and isn't.
- It is derived entirely from what you told us. If your profile says three staff and no apprentice, that is what the calendar is built on. If any of it is wrong or out of date, the calendar will be wrong in the same way.
- It is not a complete list of everything you must do. Australian small business compliance is broad, varies by council, premises, licence conditions and contracts, and changes regularly. An obligation not appearing on your calendar does not mean it does not apply to you.
- It cannot see what you didn't tell it. Komiti does not know your lease terms, your licence conditions, your contracts, your insurance policy wording or your history with any regulator unless you enter it.
- Dates are indicative. Standard due dates are used where a general rule exists. Your actual dates can differ: through a concession, an agent's lodgment program, a council-specific requirement, or a date set in your own documents.
- Marking something "done" is your record, not our verification. Komiti does not check that a task was actually completed, or completed correctly.
Treat the calendar as a well-researched prompt to check something with the relevant authority, your accountant, your bookkeeper or your lawyer. It is not a determination that you are compliant, and it is not a substitute for professional advice about your situation.
5. Your document vault: we store, we don't verify
Documents you upload are stored against your account and are reachable only when you are signed in. Two things to be clear about:
- We do not check your documents. Komiti does not verify that a certificate is genuine, current, sufficient for your purposes, or the right document at all. Expiry dates shown are the ones you entered.
- Keep your own copies. The vault is a convenience, not an archive of record. Do not rely on it as your only copy of anything you would be unable to replace.
You are responsible for what you upload, including having the right to store it and any personal information it contains about other people.
6. Change alerts are best efforts
If you ask to be told when rules change, we will genuinely try: currently a person reads regulator updates and emails you. But:
- Not hearing from us does not mean nothing has changed. We may miss something, be slow, or judge a change not relevant to you when it is.
- This is not a monitoring service you should rely on in place of your own arrangements, your accountant, or your industry association.
7. Payday reminders and your Xero connection
If you connect Xero to Payday Watch:
- You stay responsible for paying wages and super correctly and on time. Komiti's reminders are a prompt. If an email doesn't arrive (for example because Xero is unavailable, your connection lapses, or the email is filtered), that does not mean your payroll is up to date.
- Komiti only knows what's in your Xero. If pay calendars, employees, dates of birth or super funds there are wrong or missing, its reminders and drafts will be wrong in the same way. It cannot see whether super has actually reached a fund.
- Check every draft pay run before you post it. Posting a pay run in Xero reports it to the ATO through Single Touch Payroll. That step is yours.
- Two-step sign-in is required to connect Xero and to view payroll in Komiti.
- You can disconnect at any time, from the Payday Watch page or in Xero. Disconnecting deletes Komiti's access key and revokes its access at Xero.
- Your payroll data is not used for AI. Komiti doesn't send Xero data to an AI provider and doesn't use it to train AI models. Xero's own terms apply to your use of Xero.
- Connections are limited. The number of businesses that can connect is capped, and Komiti may pause or end Payday Watch, telling you first.
8. What you agree not to do
- Upload material you don't have the right to share, or that is unlawful.
- Present Komiti's output as professional advice, or as a document verified by a registered practitioner.
- Rely on Komiti's output without reading it.
- Connect a Xero organisation you aren't authorised to connect.
9. Pricing and turnaround
The Komiti software is free for existing accounts and is not sold separately at the moment. Where a price is shown, that is what applies. Planned future pricing is labelled as planned and is not a commitment. Turnaround times for document jobs are agreed with you per job: we would rather set a realistic expectation than publish a service level we haven't yet proven at volume. If we're going to miss an agreed timeframe, we'll tell you before the deadline, not after.
10. If something goes wrong
Tell us at [email protected]. If a document we produced has a material problem, we'll redo it. If we can't put it right, we'll refund what you paid for that job. Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, including the guarantee that services are provided with due care and skill. To the extent the law allows, our liability for any claim connected with the service is limited to re-supplying the service or refunding the amount you paid for it.
11. Your information
How we handle information is set out in our Privacy Policy, including which third-party providers process it and how long we keep it.
12. Changes and ending the service
We may update these terms; the date at the top will change. You can stop using Komiti at any time and ask us to delete your information. We may suspend access if these terms are being breached.
13. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia.
