Your roofing records are training data someone needs.
Every roof you've sold left a trail: the storm-week phone call, the inspection photos, the estimate, the supplement, the adjuster's yes or no. Companies building AI for field businesses have few places to get a trail like that. We put an anonymized summary of yours in front of several of them at once, and you choose the license.
Small commission on close. Nothing up front.

What buyers pay for in roofing.
Buyers value records that show a decision and what came of it more than they value finished paperwork. These are the parts of your record they look for.
Job and claim files
A job from first call to final invoice, with the inspection notes, the estimate, the supplement requests and the approval or denial that followed. The outcome attached to each file is what makes it useful.
Photos with context
Damage photos, before-and-after sets and roof-condition shots, tied to the job they came from and to whether the claim paid. Labeled by what happened next, not only by what is in the frame.
Calls
Booking calls, storm-surge intake, follow-ups and reschedules, matched to what the caller did afterward: booked, lost or called back.
In-home sales conversations
Recorded appointments with the result and the ticket size. How a homeowner pushes back and how a rep answers is hard to capture any other way.
Your own estimates and scopes
Line-item scopes, supplements and revisions, set against what was approved and what the job cost. The structure of your work, not a vendor's price book.
Production and supplier records
Crew schedules, material orders, change orders and punch-out notes: the ordinary detail that shows how a job really runs. Supplier price sheets can be confidential under distributor agreements, so they stay out of scope unless yours allow it.
Systems that hold it and what to watch for.
This is where the record usually lives. Where we've written a data guide for a system, its card links to it, with steps to find out how much you have.

Who buys it and what they do with it.
We describe buyers by category and don't publish their names. Each one is qualified and under NDA before seeing your summary, and when they bid you see every offer side by side, with exclusivity, term and payment next to the price.
Voice agents for home services
Companies building AI that answers the phone, books the job and follows up. Real calls from real roofing offices show them how people describe storm damage, push back on timing and finally say yes.
Claims and estimating AI, insurtech
Teams building software that reads photos and drafts scopes. They need claim files where the estimate, the supplement and the carrier's decision sit side by side.
Damage-detection model builders
Groups training models on roof condition and storm damage from imagery. Photos labeled by what happened to the claim are far more useful to them than photos alone.
AI labs building agents for field businesses
Labs that want realistic, messy workflows to train and test agents on: an inbox, a CRM, a phone, a crew schedule, all touching the same job.
What a package looks like to a buyer.
Before anyone signs, a buyer sees a summary shaped like this one. It is built from rounded ranges: no name, no website, no people, no addresses.
The numbers in this example are made up. Yours come from your intake and the review call, and you read the summary before any buyer does.

What stays out by default.
Some records aren't yours to license, and some shouldn't leave the building. Intake and the review call bring these up early. The main ones for this industry are below.
Xactimate price lists and pricing data
The scopes and notes you wrote are your work. The price lists and pricing data inside the software belong to its vendor, Verisk, so they stay out. We check your software terms during review.
Measurement and aerial reports
EagleView and Hover reports are usually licensed to you by the vendor, not owned by you. We record what you hold and check the terms. Fields you derived yourself may be possible; the reports themselves usually are not.
Homeowner identifiers
Names, addresses, phone numbers, emails and policy or claim numbers are removed before delivery under the license. How photos that show a house number or a face are treated is set in the license, and you approve it before anything moves.
Financing applications
Credit and financing paperwork is regulated, under laws such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. 1681b) and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (15 U.S.C. 6801–6809), and it tells a buyer nothing about how a roof gets built. It is excluded by default, along with HR, screening and health material.
This is not legal advice. Whether a record can be licensed depends on your contracts, your software terms and how it was collected, and your counsel should review any license before you sign. The rules named on this page are linked under Sources.

Roofing questions worth settling early.

No. Insurance-restoration files are one thing buyers look for, because the claim outcome is attached to the paperwork. Retail and repair work matters too, and a mix of both is useful because it shows how the sales process differs. Whether a record is worth licensing depends on volume, history and rights. If it is not, we say so early.
Often, but it depends on how the calls were recorded. Some states require every person on a call to consent, such as California (Penal Code §632), and a "this call may be recorded" notice may not cover use by a third party. Intake asks about your disclosures, and a license can be limited to redacted transcripts instead of audio. This is not legal advice; ask your counsel to look at your notices.
Your own estimates, scopes and the notes around them are generally yours to license, subject to your software terms and any contracts that apply. The vendor's price lists and pricing data are not yours. We keep that data out and license the structure of your work. This is not legal advice.
Adjuster names, carrier claim numbers and homeowner details are identifiers, and they are removed before delivery under the license. What stays is the shape of the exchange: what was requested, what was approved or denied, and how the back-and-forth went.
Buyers see an anonymized summary first, with no name, website or customer. The license covers only what you approve, and you can rule out named competitors and uses before bidding opens. Margins, supplier terms and other strategic material can be left out of scope.
We are paid a small commission out of a deal that closes. If nothing closes, you owe nothing. You keep ownership of your records and keep using them.
