AI data licensing for established firms

See the value in your business records.

Real records from working businesses are licensed by AI labs to train and test models. One question starts your indicative range.

How many employees does your company have?

It takes about a minute and is free.

Something else

Pick Other on the form. The estimate works the same way.

Who qualifies

Three boxes to tick

Most established operating businesses meet these. Your estimate confirms it one way or the other.

  • 20 employees or moreCount every location, part-time staff included.
  • At least 3 years in businessBuyers learn more from a longer record.
  • Your records live in business toolsMicrosoft 365, Google Workspace, Slack, CRM, ERP or project tools.

Why now

The open internet is used up. Your records have not.

Today's AI models learned from the open internet, and labs have largely used that text up. They still lack a view of how businesses work day to day: pricing a quote, closing a ticket, taking a project from kickoff to handoff.

That record sits inside established businesses, in the software your team opens every morning. Labs license it for model work, and the owning company sets the boundaries of what is shared.

What qualifies

The eight systems that matter most

If your team works in business software, the records already exist. Any system here can be in scope, but none of them has to be.

Email

Threads that show how your team reaches decisions with customers and vendors.

Files and shared drives

Proposals, procedures, templates, drawings and the files behind projects.

Team chat

Channels and threads where problems get worked out in real time.

CRM

Account history, pipeline notes and the follow-ups that close deals.

Support tickets

The question, every reply, and how the issue was finally resolved.

Project tools

Boards, tasks, status updates and team handoffs.

Accounting and ERP

Inventory, invoices, orders and the month-end process.

Code

Repositories, reviews and issue history from your engineering work.

What happens next

Your estimate, then three steps

First, answer the questions above. License Your Data, the partner that handles licensing, has a specialist ring you within minutes to schedule a 15-minute call.

  1. One 15-minute conversation

    Under NDA, you talk through your tools, your history and what stays out. You are never asked for passwords.

  2. A copy with names removed

    A copy is prepared by License Your Data, with placeholders in place of names. Your originals never leave your systems, and you approve a sample.

  3. AI labs license the copy

    The license covers the copy you approved and nothing else. It costs you nothing.

Estimate preview

Where most ranges start

Your headcount sets the first band. Years in business then shift it higher or lower. Pick your row to open the estimate with it already filled in.

Indicative estimate based on your answers. Not an offer or guarantee. Companies with 20 or more employees meet the bar.

Data handling

The exclusions are up to you

Your records remain with you the entire time, and nothing is shared until you say yes.

You decide

  • Which systems go into scope
  • The date ranges and teams included
  • The exclusions, set before any record moves
  • If you go ahead in the first place

Removed or de-identified

  • Sensitive data, left out or de-identified before anything is shared
  • Patient and client data at regulated practices
  • All you mark as not for sharing

Questions

Common questions before the call

More answers live on the questions page.

What happens with sensitive records?

Sensitive data may be removed or de-identified first, and no record goes out without your approval.

Do I give up ownership of my records?

No. You keep your systems and every record in them. Only what you approve in scope is licensed.

Will my industry change the range?

No. Your business type helps pair you with suitable buyers. The range itself depends on team size and years in business.

What is being licensed, exactly?

Specific records from your business, such as email, docs or tickets, which AI labs use for model training and testing. It includes only what you approve during scoping.

Is the range an offer?

No. It is indicative, built from what you told us about headcount and how long you have operated. A real number needs your records reviewed first.

Who will call me once I submit?

A specialist from our licensing partner, within minutes, to set up a 15-minute call about your answers and your systems.

Is there a fee to check?

No. Requesting an estimate is free, and it creates no obligation to go any further.
