 |

                <p>
 | 
						|
                    askLyphe is a search engine currently being developed by the Vore Microcomputers Team at
 | 
						|
                    Real Microsoft, LLC. (not affiliated with the Microsoft Corporation or its products).
 | 
						|
                    this currently consists of Niko Viau-Chow-Stuart, as well as our volunteers.
 | 
						|
                </p>
 | 
						|
                <br/>
 | 
						|
                <br/>
 | 
						|
                <p>
 | 
						|
                    our goal is to create a search engine that is fast, accurate, and ad-free; while also being
 | 
						|
                    well-built with features that we find useful, and with leadership that both respects its users and
 | 
						|
                    supports the safety of the people that made it possible.
 | 
						|
                </p>
 | 
						|
                <p>
 | 
						|
                    in order to follow these goals, <strong>Real Microsoft, LLC will never accept investments,
 | 
						|
                    VC funding, or any income beyond that earned through profit and donations.</strong>
 | 
						|
                </p>
 | 
						|
                <p>
 | 
						|
                    we will strive to keep these goals and values as the foundation of our company til either the day
 | 
						|
                    that the downfall of capitalism removes the need for us to run a company in order to make the IRS
 | 
						|
                    happy; or when microsoft sues us out of existence.

                <h2>pricing and availability</h2>
 | 
						|
                <p>
 | 
						|
                    currently, askLyphe is only available to those who have been given invite codes. we are planning on
 | 
						|
                    soon allowing our liberapay donators to get free invite codes, and in the future switch to a public
 | 
						|
                    subscription model (with all previous users getting free lifetime access).
 | 
						|
                </p>
 | 
						|
                <p>
 | 
						|
                    our plan for pricing in the future is probably around $5USD a month. no particular reason, it just
 | 
						|
                    seems like a good number (: we may change it in the future.
