Weights & Biases New Master Service Agreement Questions [D]
May 6, 2026
Weights & Biases updated its Master Service Agreement effective May 11th, redefining Customer Data to explicitly include ML models, deep learning research projects, visualizations, and generated reports, raising IP ownership concerns among practitioners. The prior Section 8(b) explicitly affirmed customer ownership, and users are questioning whether the new language weakens those protections. Teams running proprietary model training, fine-tuning pipelines, or sensitive research on W&B's Models, Training, Inference, and Weave stack should audit the new MSA immediately. Enterprise contracts likely carry stronger data sovereignty clauses than standard SaaS tier agreements.
