Refer a company, earn on every close
Your operating history has a price. Let buyers compete to set it.
Whatever your company does, its systems already hold a record of the work: code and tickets, contracts and month-end closes, support cases, calls and job files. We take that record to several AI buyers at once and run the license to the best offer.
Small commission on close. Nothing up front.

Up front. We are paid a small commission out of a deal that closes. If nothing closes, you owe nothing.
Any
Industry with years of linked records. Our own roots are in the trades and property.
Every company leaves a trail as it works: the request that started something, the thread where people disagreed, the draft that changed, the call that settled it.
AI companies need exactly that kind of record to teach models how real work gets done.
We find the buyers, make them compete, and keep the people in your records out of it.
What buyers pay for is the work, not the paperwork.
Finished documents are worth little on their own. The value is in records that show decisions being made: what was tried, what was argued over, and what happened next.
Finance and accounting
Month-end closes, reconciliations, payables and approvals, including the exceptions someone had to explain.
Legal and contracts
Drafts, redlines and approval chains from a company's own contract work, and the playbooks behind them.
Engineering and IT
Code with its review history, tickets tied to the commits that closed them, incidents and what fixed them.
Customer support
Cases from first message to resolution, with the escalations, refunds and policy calls along the way.
Sales and accounts
Pipelines, call notes and follow-ups, lined up against what was won, lost or renewed.
Operations and field work
Work orders, dispatch notes, shipments, job photos and calls, followed through to the finished job.
These functions run inside almost every company, so the same kinds of record turn up whatever you sell. Procurement, project management and internal messaging count too when they connect to outcomes.
Any industry with years of records.
Pick yours to see which records matter and what usually stays out. We take intakes from many more industries, and a few, like healthcare, banking and education, need consent or compliance work before anything goes to market.

Our own background is in the trades and property, so those are the records we know from the inside. Everywhere else we ask more questions, and we leave the professional rules to your counsel.
One buyer sets their price. Competition sets yours.
A single buyer quotes the number that works for them. We turn your intake into an anonymized summary and put it in front of data labs, AI labs and vertical AI companies at the same time.
You see every offer side by side, compared on exclusivity, term and payment as well as price, and you decide. You can rule out competitors and uses before anyone bids.

How a deal is structured.
Every license is different in price and scope. The shape of the deal is not.
- Who we work for
- You, the seller. We run the process on your side of the table.
- Who bids
- Data labs, AI labs and vertical AI companies, qualified and under NDA before they see anything.
- What you license
- A defined slice of your operating record, for a defined use and term. You keep ownership and keep using your data.
- Structure
- Licensing income. No equity, no debt, nothing on your cap table.
- Exclusivity
- Your call. Exclusive licenses usually pay more; non-exclusive ones let you license again.
- What it costs
- Small commission on close. Nothing up front.
- What buyers see first
- An anonymized summary: industry, region, years of history and volumes. Never your name, website or customers.
- Privacy
- Customer, client and employee identifiers come out before delivery. HR, financing, screening and health data are excluded by default, and income tax return information is never licensed.
- Who qualifies
- Operating companies in any industry with several years of continuous, linked records. Some industries need client consent or compliance work first, and a few aren't a fit. See industries.

A license, not the business and not the data itself. You grant a buyer the right to use a defined slice of your operating record (say, eight years of support tickets and the code changes that resolved them) for a defined purpose and term. You keep ownership, and you keep using your own data.
A single buyer quotes the number that works for them. We put the same anonymized summary in front of several qualified buyers at once, so the price is set by competition. You see every offer side by side and choose, including on terms like exclusivity and payment timing, not just the headline number.
Nothing up front. We are paid a small commission out of a deal that closes. If nothing closes, you owe nothing.
Operating companies in any industry with several years of continuous records in the systems they run on: software and IT, finance, legal, insurance, logistics, professional services, the trades, construction, solar and energy, real estate, manufacturing, retail and more. How long the history runs, whether it has gaps, and how well it links work to outcomes matter more than company size. Our own background is in the trades and property.
Healthcare, banking and lending, telecom, staffing, education and contact-center companies can start an intake, but their records carry legal duties, so consent, de-identification or exclusion comes first. Examples: patient information under HIPAA (45 CFR 164.514), consumer financial information under GLBA (12 CFR Part 1016), subscriber records under 47 U.S.C. 222, student records under FERPA (34 CFR Part 99), California applicants' and employees' personal information under the CCPA (Cal. Civ. Code 1798.140), background checks under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. 1681a), and client data a contact center holds as a service provider (11 CCR 7050). We don't take on income tax return information (26 U.S.C. 7216), defense contractors' controlled unclassified information or export-controlled technical data (32 CFR Part 2002; DFARS 252.204-7012; 22 CFR Parts 120 to 130; 15 CFR Parts 730 to 774), public agencies, consumer apps' user content, or media archives, which belong to a separate content-licensing market. This is general information, not legal advice.
Yes, with limits. The simplest place to start is material the firm wrote that holds no client information, such as templates, checklists and workflows. For a law firm, anything drawn from a representation, client matter files and billing narratives included, needs each client's informed consent under ABA Model Rule 1.6 and your state's version of it, and any de-identification happens inside the firm before anything leaves it. ABA Formal Opinion 512 says engagement-letter boilerplate isn't enough consent to put client information into a self-learning AI tool. A CPA firm in public practice needs each client's specific consent to share confidential client information, even when the client isn't named (AICPA Code 1.700.001 and 1.700.060). Income tax return information is never licensed, even de-identified or aggregated (26 U.S.C. 7216; 26 CFR 301.7216-2(o)). Any company's own contract and finance work is usually simpler. This is general information, not legal advice.
Buyers license de-identified operating records, not people. Names, addresses, phone numbers, emails and account numbers come out before delivery, and HR, financing, screening and health data are excluded by default. We never broker consumer profiles.
No. Exclusive licenses usually pay more because the buyer gets the record to themselves. Non-exclusive licenses pay less per deal but let you license again. We collect bids both ways so you can compare.
Fill in the intake (counts and dates, not files), take a call, decide what's in scope and what's off-limits, and sign the license you choose. Delivery needs admin access to the systems in scope.
Usually, when a few things line up: you own the records, your customer and client agreements and privacy notices allow de-identified use, no professional or privacy rule restricts them, and recordings were made with proper consent. The intake flags the common problems early. We're not your lawyer, and your counsel should review any license.
