The data we license

Records your team keeps every day

Real records of how companies run are what AI labs license. This is what that means in practice.

Why working records count

Public text teaches models plenty, yet almost none of it shows a real business at work. Your records capture the steps from request to result: who asked, who replied, what changed and how it was approved.

Labs license that material to train and test their models.

The systems we look at

Mailboxes

Mail history from Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. Back and forth between staff, vendors and customers shows how questions get answered and how decisions get made.

Shared files

Shared folders in Google Drive, OneDrive or SharePoint: proposals, procedures, checklists, templates and reports, often with their revision history.

Chat channels

Microsoft Teams or Slack channels where people flag issues, pass work along and settle on fixes.

CRM records

Account notes, call summaries, deal stages and follow ups logged by your sales or service teams.

Support tickets

Help desk history: the question, each reply, any escalation, and how it was resolved.

Project tools

Status changes, comments, timelines and tasks from tools like Jira, Asana or Monday.

ERP and finance

Approval steps, inventory movements, invoices and orders. Personal details and account numbers are dealt with in scoping.

Code

Repositories, pull requests, code review comments and issue history from software teams.

What we never license

Client, patient and customer personal data stays out or is de-identified, and you can leave out any system, team or period. See the data handling page for how it works.

What moves your range

Your range comes from two inputs, team size and the number of years your records cover. More people and more history each push the range higher. Industry does not change the number. Indicative estimate based on your answers. Not an offer or guarantee.

How far back records go

A longer record tends to be worth more, because it shows how the work changed and how the same issues were dealt with repeatedly. This is why years in business counts as one of the two inputs to the estimate. The date ranges in scope remain your choice, and you can exclude sensitive or recent periods.

How your records become a licensed copy

What is licensed is never your systems or your original files. After a 15-minute call, License Your Data, our licensing partner, prepares a de-identified copy of the records you put in scope, with names and identifiers replaced by placeholders. You approve a sample, and buyers license that copy.
