04
QPN Partner Relationships

Three-Party Model

The Qode Partner Network operates a structured three-party model involving: (1) Property Partners — physical environment owners; (2) USD Capture Vendors — third-party specialists who produce OpenUSD scene assets; and (3) Qode Platforms — the spatial intelligence pipeline operator.

Partner Responsibilities
Each party in the QPN model operates under a separate partnership agreement that defines scope, deliverables, data rights, and attribution requirements. These Terms of Service govern use of the website and public-facing services. QPN partnership agreements are separate binding contracts executed between the parties. Third-party USD capture vendors operate independently and are not agents or employees of Qode Platforms.

Qode Platforms makes no warranty regarding the quality, accuracy, or completeness of USD scene assets delivered by third-party capture vendors. The QSE pipeline processes assets as delivered. Any errors or omissions in source USD assets are the responsibility of the delivering vendor.

05
QRL Research Engagements

Research Cohort Terms

Qode Research Labs (QRL) engagements are governed by separate research participation agreements. QRL is not a consulting firm. Results published on qodeplatforms.com from QRL partner engagements are published with mutual written consent. Partner names, assets, and proprietary data are never published without explicit authorization.

QRL research findings, protocol versions, and published results are the intellectual property of Qode Platforms. Partner contributions to protocol development do not constitute ownership of the resulting protocols.

06
Live Demo and Synthetic Data

QQP Demo — Synthetic Assets Only

The QQP live demo on qodeplatforms.com operates exclusively on synthetic named spatial graph assets including PalmAtlasRetreat, AzureCrestResort, GrandMeridianHotel, and VertexTower. These assets do not represent real properties. Any resemblance to real physical environments is coincidental.

The demo is provided for evaluation purposes only. Query results, protocol responses, and spatial data returned by the demo are synthetic and should not be relied upon for any operational, safety, or commercial purpose.

07
