Two independent businesses

Founder and co-founder describe where the software comes from and what each person contributed. They create no company between the two, no agency, and no power for either one to represent the other.

Stochastly is published and commercially operated by Mahé Chadeffaud alone, as a sole proprietorship: the Legal notice names the publisher and the publication director, and they are him. Hugo Marotin contributes as a separate business, under an exclusive licence on the code he writes. He is neither an employee of the publisher nor a partner in it.

Third-party software

Stochastly is built on open-source software. Third-party components and their attribution notices ship with the application, in its credits and third-party notice files.
