The rules bit

Terms of participation

Loop Labs is a community lab where experienced software engineers practice AI workflows and learn from real work. These plain-English terms describe the deal when you join.

Updated 5 September 2026

The deal

You bring a focus for your engineering work, show up for the live sessions, and treat the other Engineers and their work with respect. Loop Labs provides the group, session format, and shared context in good faith.

Seats and participation

Each cohort has up to five Engineers and a Facilitator. An active paid Loop Labs subscription is required to request and confirm a seat. A subscription does not guarantee an immediate place in a particular cohort. You can withdraw at any time from your dashboard, and an Administrator may remove an account that disrupts the group or misuses the service.

Your work stays yours

You keep ownership of your products, code, ideas, and profile material. You choose whether your Engineer profile appears publicly. Anything shared in a live session should be treated as group context, not material to republish without permission.

Sessions, transcripts, and AI

Sessions may be transcribed so participants can keep the context. Facilitators can add summary notes and analysis to the private session record. The Privacy notice explains what is stored, who can access it, and how to request deletion or correction.

Optional Slack access

The private Slack channel is optional and is not the centre of the cohort. Access follows your Loop Labs community subscription and participation status.

No guarantees

The group can offer momentum, feedback, support, and the occasional useful ass-kicking. It cannot guarantee that a product ships, succeeds, earns money, or that every service remains available without interruption.
