How it works
Three steps after your estimate
Begin with the estimate. Within minutes of submitting, you hear from a License Your Data specialist, our licensing partner, to set up a 15-minute call.
- 01
A 15-minute talk
Discuss your tools, how far back they reach and what must be excluded. It all starts under NDA.
- 02
The de-identified copy
License Your Data prepares a copy with names replaced by placeholders. The originals stay in your systems at all times.
- 03
Licensing the copy
When you sign off on a sample, the copy is licensed to AI labs. No passwords, no cost to you.
What qualifies
Data from the software you already rely on
Established companies usually hold years of records spread over these systems. Which ones are included is your choice.
Email
Threads with customers, suppliers and colleagues that show how requests become decisions.
Documents and drives
Proposals, procedures, templates and project files kept in shared folders.
Team chat
Where everyday problems are brought up and solved in channels and threads.
CRM
Deal notes, account history and follow ups across the customer relationship.
Support tickets
Questions, troubleshooting steps and resolutions, from first message to close.
Project boards
How work travels from start to finish across boards, tasks and handoffs.
Finance and ERP
Purchasing, ordering and operating processes, minus the sensitive numbers.
Code repositories
Repositories, code reviews and change history from software your team wrote.

Most of the public web has been read. Business records are not.
AI labs trained their models on text anyone could download. That supply has largely been used. What they are missing is how real companies work: a quote being revised, a support case being fixed, a project moving from start to handoff.
You will find it in the email, documents and tools your staff use every day. AI labs license such records, minus anything private, for training and testing.
A first look
Your starting range
Your team size sets where the range starts. Years in business then shift it a little lower or higher. Your industry has no effect on the number.
Indicative estimate based on your answers. Not an offer or guarantee.

The fit
A short checklist first
- You have at least 20 employees.
- You have been in business for 3 years or more.
- Your records live in business software such as Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, a CRM, an ERP or project tools.
- You have the say on whether the company explores licensing.
Does that sound like you?
Start my estimateWhat stays out
Sensitive data can stay out
Personal details, financial account numbers, health information and anything else you flag can be excluded or de-identified before anything is shared.
Your approval comes first
The scope is yours to review and approve. Records you leave out are never part of a licence.
Your records remain yours
Licensing does not remove your systems or your originals. Your business keeps running as it always has.

Businesses in many lines of work
When the work happens in business software, the records may qualify. A few examples of what that means:
Accounting
Review steps, close procedures and client request handling.
Law
How the practice works, scoped with you and your counsel. Client data is kept out.
Healthcare
How scheduling and admin work, scoped together with your counsel. Patient data is excluded.
Manufacturing
How production is planned, checked and coordinated with suppliers.
Freight and 3PL
Carrier messages, dispatch and shipment tracking.
Distribution
How orders, stock queries and service requests are handled.
Construction
Change orders, bids, job schedules and site coordination.
Insurance
Internal procedures and service routines, minus policyholder details.
Finance
Operating procedures and internal process records, with account data left out.
Professional services
Proposals, project delivery and how client communication works.
Software or tech
Code reviews, tickets, docs and release history.
HVAC
Maintenance schedules, quotes, dispatch notes and service calls.
Home services
Bookings, estimates, crew schedules and follow ups.
Another industry?
Choose Other in the estimate. Industry plays no part in your range.

What companies is this meant for?
Companies that have at least 20 staff, 3 or more years in business and their records in business software.
What is the price of an estimate?
Nothing. Requesting an estimate is free and creates no obligation.
Who follows up once I submit?
Usually within minutes, a specialist from License Your Data, our licensing partner, calls you.
Is every system required?
No. You choose the systems, date ranges and types of record. What you rule out stays out.
What happens to personal or sensitive information?
It can be excluded or de-identified before anything is shared, and you approve the scope first.
Is the range I see an offer?
No. What you see is an indicative estimate from your answers. Actual value comes down to buyer interest and a look at your records.
We are a regulated practice in law, accounting or healthcare. Can we take part?
Scope is decided with you and your counsel, and client or patient data is kept out. Whether licensing suits your practice is not something we advise on.
Will my industry affect the estimate?
No. Only team size and years in business set the range.
