Get paid for the paperwork your business already has.

Companies that build artificial intelligence need real examples of how businesses handle everyday work, so they pay for copies of business records like emails, quotes and project files. We arrange the sale, remove all names and private details first, and you keep your original files.

You do not upload anything to find out. Nothing leaves your company until you sign an agreement.

Who this is for

Your company has 20 or more employees.
You have at least three years of records, such as emails, quotes or project files.
Your team can spare about two hours to confirm what you have.
You never upload anything before an agreement is signed.

What your records could be worth

Answer two questions to see a rough estimate.

The estimate is a rough guide based on company size and age. It is not an offer. A 15-minute call gives you a real number based on the records you actually have.

This is a rough estimate for a company with 20 to 99 employees that has been in business for 8 to 15 years. A short call gives you a real number based on the records you actually have.

The estimate is only a rough guide in US dollars, not an offer. The real value depends on what records you have, whether you have the right to license them, and whether a buyer wants them. A sale is never guaranteed.

What gets bought

Buyers want to see how real work gets done.

The records that sell are the ones that show a problem, what your team did about it, and how it turned out. That means emails, quotes, shipment records and project files. Buyers do not want contact lists, and they never receive your customers' identities.

Here is what one record could look like

Shipment requestPickup on Friday

Dallas, Texas to Memphis, Tennessee

One truck, 22 pallets of packaged goods

Trucking company A

$1,920

No truck free until Monday

Trucking company B

The request
A customer needs a truck to carry goods from Dallas to Memphis, picking up on Friday.
What the team did
Two trucking companies gave prices. The team booked the one with a truck free on Friday, for $1,850.
The result
The goods arrived on Saturday and the paperwork was filed.

This is a made-up example. It is not real customer data.

From: Dana Whitfield <dana@northwindfoods.com>

To: Dispatch team

Subject: Friday pickup

Hi team, Dana Whitfield at Northwind Foods asked us to move the Friday pickup to Monday.

I called Ridgeline Carriers (MC-884210) and rebooked the truck at $1,850.

Please send the new confirmation to dana@northwindfoods.com.

Thanks, Marcus

The highlighted parts are the ones we remove. Watch them change.

Names are replaced with labels.

Dana Whitfield becomes Person 14 everywhere she appears. Companies and email addresses get labels too.

Sensitive information is removed.

Passwords, payment details and anything you choose to leave out are removed. They are never offered for sale.

The useful story stays.

The request, what your team did and the result stay connected. That is the part buyers pay for.

This is a made-up example. Replacing names is only the first step. We also check for details that could still identify someone.

Who buys your records, and why

Companies that build artificial intelligence need real examples.

Their software learns by studying how people handle real situations. Those examples do not exist on the public internet, so these companies pay businesses like yours for them. Your agreement says exactly what the records may be used for.

Use 1

Teaching the software

The software studies how your team handled real situations, like a late delivery or a design problem, so it can learn to handle similar ones.

Use 2

Improving software that already exists

A system that already works can get better at one specific job, such as writing a useful follow-up message.

Use 3

Testing before it is used

Companies check whether their software handles real situations correctly before anyone relies on it.

What happens when the agreement ends? The agreement says when the buyer must delete the copy and when any future use must stop. Buyers are never allowed to publish or resell your records. Software that was already trained on them may keep working.

How it works

Five steps from a phone call to a payment.

Step 1

We talk for 15 minutes.

You tell us what software you use and roughly what records you have. You do not upload anything.

Step 2

You confirm how many records you have.

Your team takes a few screenshots that show record counts. This takes about two hours, and your files stay where they are.

Step 3

We agree on what is included.

You choose which records are in and which are out. Your lawyer reviews a written agreement.

Step 4

We find a buyer.

We present the opportunity to companies that buy records. A listing does not guarantee a sale.

Step 5

Names are removed, and you get paid.

After a buyer signs, all names and private details are removed. You approve a sample, the copy is delivered, and you are paid.

Your team's total time

About two hours

We guide you through every step. Older systems or several sources of records can take longer, and we tell you before you commit.

Your control

You stay in control the whole way.

What you share

At first, only record counts and screenshots. The records themselves move only after a buyer signs.

What you keep

Your business, your original files and ownership of your records.

What stays out

Passwords, payment details and anything you choose to exclude. Names and private details are removed before any use.

Who does the work

We guide you through every step. Your team spends about two hours in total.

What you approve

Which records are included, what they can be used for, any buyers to exclude, and the sample with names removed.

When you get paid

After a buyer signs and accepts the copy. The payment schedule is written into your agreement.

Common questions

Questions people ask before they call.

Yes. You sign a written agreement that gives a buyer permission to use a copy of records you own, and your lawyer reviews it first. Buyers get a copy with names removed. They never get access to your systems.

Find out if your records qualify.

In 15 minutes we talk through the software you use, what you could share, and how the process works. You do not need to upload anything for the call.
