Your company's records could be worth $100K to $2M.

The emails, tickets, call logs, invoices, and work history your business already has could help train better AI. We license it from you, clean it and sell it to AI companies.

  • Costs you nothing
  • You keep ownership
  • Records are de-identified
Why anyone pays for this

AI has learned from the public web. It has never watched a company work.

The newest AI models are being built to do office work, like answering a customer or closing the books.

The public web doesn't show how that work happens day to day. Your company's records do, and because they're private, AI companies pay to license them.

What an 80-person company with 12 years of records could be worth. An estimate, not a deal.

This market barely existed a year ago. Buyers set these prices themselves, and they can change them. Finding out what your records are worth takes about a minute.

What buyers license

The everyday records AI companies license.

Years of routine work are worth more to a buyer than a few months of unusual projects. The ordinary emails, tickets and invoices your team already produces are what buyers license.

How a license works

01

Nothing goes to a buyer until you approve it.

We de-identify names and identifying fields before anything goes out. You approve the schema.

02

It's licensed, not sold.

You keep using everything. Buyers get de-identified access on terms you approve.

03

We do the work to get your records ready.

We license your records, clean and de-identify them, and sell them to buyers. We pay you under the license you sign with us. You never pay us.

How it works

How licensing your records works.

  1. 1

    Answer a few questions You

    About your company and the tools it uses. You send no files.

  2. 2

    See your estimate You

    A range appears as soon as you answer.

  3. 3

    We review your company Us

    We look at what you have and tell you plainly whether there is a real opportunity.

  4. 4

    We prepare your records Us

    With your written OK, we de-identify a sample and find the buyer that fits.

  5. 5

    Approve the offer and get paid You

    You see what is included and the price before you sign. We pay you once the buyer pays us.

Am I giving away my company's secrets?

No. A buyer licenses a copy of records that show how specific work gets done. One example is how your team resolves a support ticket. Buyers don't want your pricing or your customer list.

  • You approve what is included before you sign anything.
  • You keep your records, and the business runs as it does today.
  • Nothing is final until you sign.

What stays out

  • Customer lists on their own
  • Pricing and current bids
  • Passwords and credentials
  • Payroll and HR files
  • Patient health records
Why now

Why it makes sense to check your records now.

Buyer requests close

Buyers ask for specific industries and kinds of records. Once a request is filled, it closes.

Buyer terms change

A buyer with a public program changed its published payout tiers in October 2026. A price you see today can move.

Closing a company wipes its records

When a company shuts down, its email, chat and file accounts get turned off. The records go with them.

Questions

The questions everyone asks.

You license them to us, and we pay you. We clean and de-identify the records you approve, package them into training data, and sell them to AI data buyers. We stay your point of contact the whole way through.

Nothing, ever. There's no fee to qualify, no fee to apply and no fee if nothing closes. We pay you for the license.

Placements have ranged from $100K to $2M. Depth of history matters far more than headcount. A twelve-year-old firm with thirty people often out-prices a two-year-old company with three hundred.

A US-based company with 20+ W-2 employees, at least three years in business and its own systems, like email, a CRM, shared drives and chat.

Email threads, support tickets, call recordings, contracts, customer and job records, invoices and internal chat. It doesn't have to be interesting. A long run of ordinary work is the point.

Usually you're on a call the same day you apply. Once your data manifest is in, an offer typically follows within 48–72 hours. Payment comes after the agreement is signed and the data is delivered.

Yes. We strip or replace identifying details before anything goes to a buyer. Patient health records stay out, and financial account numbers and passwords are excluded entirely. You approve exactly what goes out.

No. It's a license, not a sale. Some agreements include an exclusivity period on the licensed records, and the length is in the contract you sign.

That's fine. Nothing is exclusive until you sign, and our same-day calls usually get you a real number sooner.

Possibly. Some buyer programs take records from companies that have closed or wound down, as long as the old workspace or files still exist.

No. We only talk to you.
